    A timeless Gospel favorite sung so beautifully and reverently by The Oak Ridge Boys. Rest in peace Brother Joe Bonsall.

    As an 18 year old, this is my favorite type of religious music. My generation is really missing out on some incredible stuff.

      So glad to see young people of your age group that enjoy what I’ve been blessed with for the past 80 years. Praise God

      You are so right on both counts. Sadly every generation is missing out too much on "having Jesus, than anything". Praise God it's not so for ALL those in every generation.

      I'm a 19 year old, and I agree wholeheartedly with your assertion. The 4-part harmony blends beautifully together to create this peaceful story about our Lord and Savior.

      My roots are in old hymns and southern gospel and then I got into rock playing the guitar. I thought the Praise and Worship thing was a cool thing for many years and as time went by I got burnt out on it. Most of it follows the same formula from a musical perspective and a lot of it is a bit fake when it comes to the way it is presented in church and I wonder if a lot of the people that perform it even care that much about the gospel. I lead music in a church now and still play some praise and worship but have went back to arranging and playing the hymns as well as some southern gospel.

    Love these guys. Saw them way back in the 70s at a small East Texas school strict fundraiser. Joe Bonsal kissed me on the cheek and autographed my hand. I still have the pics of the autograph. The ORBs were the opening act for Don Williams. It was an evening I will never forget!

    Happy Sabbath God's family. Today I remember the words of Lord Jesus in Matthew 7:21 "Not everyone who says to Me 'Lord, Lord', will enter the Kingdom of Heaven but the one who does the will of My Father who is in Heaven." Today I remember to keep it holy by keeping it different from the other six days. God bless. From the House of God the House of Prayer the House of Worship.

    I'd rather have Jesus than silver or gold I'd rather be his than have riches untold
    I'd rather have Jesus than houses or land
    Yes I'd rather be led by his nail pierced hands
    Than to be the king of a best domain and beheld in sins dread sway
    I'd rather have Jesus than anything this world affords today
    [ vibes ]
    I'd rather have Jesus than worldly applause I'd rather be faithful to his dear cause
    I'd rather have Jesus than world wide things I'd rather be true to his holy name
    Than to be the king...

  • @evacizova9610
    @evacizova9610 5 років тому +1

    Radšej by som mal mať Ježiša ako striebro alebo zlato;
    Radšej by som bol Jeho, ako keby som mal nevýslovné bohatstvo;
    Radšej by som mal mať Ježiša ako domy alebo pozemky;
    Radšej by som bol vedený Jeho nechtom prepichnutou rukou
    upustiť:
    Ako kráľ obrovskej panstva
    Alebo sa držte hrôzy hrôzy;
    Radšej by som mal Ježiša ako čokoľvek iné
    Tento svet dnes poskytuje.
    Radšej by som mal Ježiša ako potlesk mužov;
    Radšej by som bol verný Jeho drahej veci;
    Radšej by som mal Ježiša ako svetovú slávu;
    Radšej by som veril Jeho svätému menu
    Je spravodlivejší ako ľalia najvzácnejších kvetov;
    Z hrebeňa je sladší ako med;
    Všetko, čo môj hladný duch potrebuje;
    Radšej by som mal mať Ježiša a nechať ho viesť

    That was awesomely done! Did you know were that song came from and how long its been around? No problem I let you know! But first i want to pass a little statement by John J Murray, "The faintest whisper of support and encouragement uttered by a Christian in the ears of his fellow believers is heard in Heaven" If all of us were kind to those around us this world be a better place. I know that I am going to take responsibility for my actions in this way today and for the rest of my life in Jesus name. Who else can do the same? The information that I said I had on the song is:
    Prince Oscar Bernadotte
    Count of Wisborg
    Image result for oscar c. a. bernadotte
    Prince Oscar Carl August Bernadotte, Count of Wisborg was a Swedish religious activist, the second son of King Oscar II of Sweden and his consort, Sofia of Nassau. Wikipedia
