The Fourth Man

- Опубліковано 3 лют 2008
- Hovie sets up this song, and it is not an easy song to sing, the verses require a lot of precision. As always the Statesmen do so without a beat.
Members incude: Doy Ott, Denver Crumpler, Jake Hess, Big Chief, and Hovie Lister.

I am Hovie's 10th Cousin. What a blessing he was and remains today!
This song still thrills me to this day...one of my favorite Bible stories about how God delivers those who obey him...
Maranatha.
I heard this by the Statesman, back in the late 50’s ,they were the best…..
There are still persons that have great faith, I'm one of them.
Amen 2 that!! Here here!
Thank you I have a faith that God is all the matters and in the end I want to see Jesus and many others in the Bible.
Amen! 🔜🎺⏰☁️👆🏻🙌🏼👑
There certainly are
I wish I had faith like you pray for me
Denver Crumpler is probably the best tenor I've ever heard. I was too young to remember him but I remember Chief, Jake, Ott and Rosie in the '60's and used to watch them on TV in between church services on Sunday.
I'm not sure the guys name but I really like in the The Ink Spots
My mom would play this group all the time. I am so thankful for that.
My grandmother loved this song and this gospel group. We went on trips when I was a kid and sng in the car, my uncle did the Big Chief's part on this song! Man, those were great times.
I was a about ten the first time I heard this song. That was 1960 I think. I always thought the Statler Brothers were the first that I heard sing it. I didn't remember ever hearing it from the Statesmen. But I was a kid. Still, I remember the impact this song had on me then. And, while I've never been caught in a fire, I've had other close calls. And Faith is what brought me out. This song still brings tears to my eyes.
I've you get a chance look up johnny cash's version
I look forward to singing with them in heaven, worshipping "The Fourth Man in the Fire!! "Hallelujah!!!
That my friends is SOUTHERN GOSPEL!! How I miss this traditional sound!!
No group has ever had the same sound. :)
Haha i love the Cuts of Hovie playing with them haha so iconic lol i look forward to seeing these men in heaven
THEY would not bend, bow, or burn, in Nebachadnezzer's firey furnace, for GOD-CHRIST was with them☆☆☆
The Statesmen! I've been listening to and been to MANY concerts of them for over 60 years!!
Amen to that!
The Fourth Man (Arthur Smith)
Refrain: They wouldn't bend They held on to the will of God so we are told They wouldn't bow They would not bow their knees to idols made of gold They wouldn't burn They were protected by the Fourth Man in the fire They wouldn't bend They wouldn't bow, they wouldn't burn. Now the prophet Daniel tells about Three men who walked with God Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego Before the wicked king they stood And the king commanded them bound and thrown Into the fiery furnace that day But the fire was so hot that the men were slain That forced them on their way. Refrain: Now when the three were cast in and the king rose up To witness this awful fate He began to tremble at what he saw In astonished tones he spake Did we not cast three men bound Into the midst of the fire Well, Lo, I see four men unhurt Unbound and walkin' down there; There's Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego In the fiery coals they trod But the form of the Fourth Man that I see Is like the Son of God;
Never be another bass singer like Big Cheif
God is in control
I use to go to the all night singing at the old civic auditorium in Atlanta many years ago and remember The Statesmen,and all the old groups very well,the original members,not the new ones using the name.I really miss them.
I was born in '71 & didn't know who the Statesmen were till the Gaither Videos.
What else can be said that hasn't? They
set a standard thats even today's groups
are striving to achieve. It doesn't get
ANY better. I know they are together in
Heaven now singing again.
Wow! Mr. Crumpler comes off the top rope on the last line!
The high notes were sung by the incomparable, and outrageous Denver Crumpler. The greatest of all Statesmen. That he often stayed in the background while he had the ability to vocally blow away anyone else in the quartet at any time is a testament to his teamwork and humility.
I love Jake's smile he is so cheerful even now haha esp the other newer Gaiter video where he almost lost it while laughing haha
I totally love them. One of the best quartets EVER. I am really impressed by Big Chief's voice and the rest of the guys (Hovie, Jake etc.)
When I was growing up, my dad listened to The Statesmen all the time, but I don't recall hearing this song. I think I'll play it for my Sunday School Class next time I teach this lesson. :)
I like the mustaches.
thank you for bringing them back to youtube, i was really missing them. please never take them off!
I have to agree, it's funny to see Hovie's face expressions as he plays the piano.
Wow.
The variety of Gospel music amazes me!
I think Mr. Doy Ott went to my childhood church before I was born.
So much of these guys influence can still be heard today, love the song and the guys that sang it
I love this song, praise the lord......
Hello Brenda
THE CHEIF DID A GREAT JOB
Wow that was just a terrific performance. What a great song
Yes he was the greatest. He did have a family, if you look up the Statesmen quartet group on facebook, his daughter dianna posts there sometimes.
What a great song, I have heard this before and i always come back to hear it again. What a great message. Listen to the words. Wow thanks for sharing this great song. I think i'll hear it one more time. thanks again.
AMAZINGGGG 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻❤️❤️❤️❤️
Great video! I loved the Statesmen and got to meet Jake and Hovie!
Boy am I glad I read the comments somehow I would get them by saying Kingston quartet I misunderstood when they were talking at the start and now I can look at their whole playlist oh golly I'm excited bye-bye
Well-done! I regret that only now I learned of this song and singing/ playing group. 56yrs young and still much to learn.
This song brought me so much courage over the years, when I was afraid...
What great singing and very hard to sing and what a message great!!
I love this stuff.
Wow! I've actually learned this song by the Statler Brothers, (if that's how you spell it)> Thakns for sharing!
PureRoyaltyTV me too
what wonderful men of God. hovie you assembled the best of the best.
I love all those old groups, the Blackwoods, the Stamps, Weatherfords, Rebels, but on this kind of song there was no one like the Statesmen.
A beautiful hymn
Those guys were dressed sharp.
THANKS FOR SHARING!!
Love this group.
❤
We need some folks that won't bend today.
Gotta love it!
Oh, my goodness. Look at Jake Hess then!
Great song and singing 👏
I love this!!!!
Chief at his best!!!
Denver is my wife’s grandfather!
I love it! 🥰
Awesome song
Daniel 3:24-25 Then Nebuchadnezzar the king was astonied😳, and rose up in haste, and spake, and said unto his counsellors, Did not we cast three men bound into the midst of the fire? They answered and said unto the king, True, O king.
He answered and said, Lo, I see four men loose, walking in the midst of the fire, and they have no hurt; and the form of the fourth is like the Son of God.✝️🛐
No one can sing like the original statesmen!!
true gospel!
Go boys
This vid is really cool. My favorite on UA-cam is "Over in the glory land" by The Stanley Brothers but this one come a close second.
Jim was married and had a daughter. They attended Washington St. Assembly Of God Church in Atlanta when I did.
Joann Wood - who’s Jim?
@@zerubbablestranger6970 Probably refers to Big Chief James Weatherington.
Kevin, the high note at 2:29 is by Denver, the second man. Doy, Denver, Jake and Chief. Great song!!!
Jake always insisted that the greatest Statesmen lineup ever was with Denver Crumpler. It's hard not to agree. I love the lineups with Rosie for other reasons, just like I think the best post-Hess lineups were with Jack Toney. However, you can't beat Crump, Hess, Doy, and Chief.
@junior2404 As earlier mentioned, the Word of God tells us in 2Corinthians 5:8 We are confident, I say, and willing rather to be absent from the body, and to be present with the Lord. And the reason Christ is returning is to rule for one thousand years in His kingdom here on earth. The blood washed saints will come with Him.
@southerncrescent1401 He's the tall one in the back singing bass.
OMG they're RAPPING!!! LOL
Jake with his own hair! go see the one he does years later on a homecoming! Still wonderful voices and all gone now I think?
Love me some Jake Hess! That was his real hair lol
Actually it wasn't, that's a piece. Don't need hair to sing though!
The creator is no man or woman. There was no fourth, only unity.
The video showing him with him with what true hair Jake has is the "1950's Statesmen TV Show Saltine Commercial".
i looked back an assumed this happened to me a long time ago. i dunno how great i am today tho
but i still, see
does anyone know if big chief was married had a family etc??he was just the greatest.
I don't think so. The singers look at each other at other times during the song. I think it's just a little choreagraphy to make it like they are telling the story or just a way to not stare in the camera for the entire time.
Please study 1 Thessalonions 4. Nobody goes to heaven or hell when they die. Decisions are made and seal down here and that blessed day when the Lord returns he will then give us our due reward(Rev 22:11-12)i.e. eternal life or eternal damnation. We hope that everyone who profess Christ would b saved, but only God who judges the heart knows the answer. So someday if they had lived the faithful life, the Statesmen will be singing in Heaven. See also Ezekiel 33.
Would anyone know how "statesmen fan" was able to find these old recordings of the statesmen quartet? I know they came from the nabisco show, but these clips must come from CD or VHS of some sort because towards the end of the songs it will start to play another song before it cuts off. There was even one video "statesmen fan" uploaded that showed, at the end of the song, it cutting to Bill Gaither watching it on a little TV. The only Bill Gaither videos I've found on the statesmen did not include some of these older clips such as The Fourth Man or One Of These Mornings or Sunday Mornin' Meeting' Time. Would anyone be able to help me out to know where he might have gotten these old video clips?
Dr. Kent Hovind brought me here! ;-)
What Is Your Worldview? - Creation or Evolutionism? Oh I love that guy!!! Great person!!!
statler brothers
Yesooooo
I wish I had a pencil thin mustache!!!!
Was this song on an album somewhere as well? I love it, and I can't figure out what Album it was on!
@chernowitz I've seen a few comments about "Big Chief". Which one is he?
Hovie Lister on the piano
Denver Crumpler standing in front, Doy Ott, Jake Hess and James Big Chief Wetherington here at the back
Are you going to put the songs on this site?
At 1:52 is Denver asking which verse they are on?
Sam Kennedy I think the front guy was supposed to hold up 3 fingers and forgot
What is the fourth Man
married and had a daughter
Nope, it wasn't his hair. There's one video from back then showing him without his hairpiece.
Starts in 0:43.
im sorry, but the pianist was making laugh through the whole video LOLOL
That's just Hovie.
If he's playing he's smiling.
Again, all I have to say is people need to study the Word of God, carefully. This subject is deep and requires much prayer and meditation. But think, God had to raise Moses up from the dead to take him up. Why? If he died and went straight to heaven why ressurect him? Scripture is clear if you love God you need not worry about your 'fate' when Christ returns. Oh yeah, and why is Christ returning if we are with him when we die?
I thought Doy went on home in the early 80s
Piano player kinda creepy. But funny. 😂
God damnit I love this video. That piano player cracks me up every fucking time!
Good load of Gruber you laid, eh what...Hillary?
Talk tidy!
piano player was hovie lister
