You just heard it? 06:07 I just, I heard it like I mentioned last time... 06:09 Yeah. 06:10 I was singing harmony before I was actually speaking words, 06:13 I was just humming harmony. 06:15 That's amazing, so... 06:16 Yeah. 06:17 Why don't we listen to Tim Parton and the Partons. 06:22 This is good. 06:28 Let my light shine in the night time 06:35 Let it shine 06:38 All day through 06:42 Let it shine 06:45 Shine for Jesus 06:48 Let it shine, let it shine on you 06:56 This little light of mine 07:00 I'm gonna let it shine 07:03 This little light of mine 07:05 Yeah. 07:06 I'm gonna let it shine 07:09 This little light of mine 07:12 Kind of sounds like the Partridge family too, 07:14 that was Partons and Partridge. 07:15 I'm gonna let it shine 07:17 Let it shine, let it shine 07:20 That's good. That's good. 07:24 You know, back then. That's incredible. 07:26 And, of course, you know, we were kids 07:29 and nowadays we would try to tune that, 07:34 you know, they have editing software 07:36 where you can get all the glitches out, 07:39 but we probably did that in one take 07:41 and it was done, you know. 07:43 Yeah, we musicians too, 07:45 'cause they did really in '70s 07:47 they were starting to do some editing 07:48 but basically like what we did I think 07:52 with Tommy and Kay we did a album 07:54 and first one that we did, 07:56 we actually did it at our own church 07:58 and then had a company in Cincinnati press it. 08:01 Okay. 08:02 But there was no editing any musicians, singers, 08:07 you had to do it right or stayed on 08:09 or you just had to keep redoing. 08:10 Yeah. 08:12 So, but, now that sounds great and you've got great pitch, 08:14 I mean, you were six years old, that's amazing. 08:16 It was fun. 08:17 Your sister too, about how old was she? 08:19 She would have been six years older. 08:21 Okay. So she's 12. 08:22 Yeah, thank you, thanks for doing the math. 08:24 All right, and you did some others... 08:26 Right, yeah. 08:27 There were some other great songs 08:29 on this album. 08:30 "When I Wake Up to Sleep No More" 08:32 and here's a song that we did farther along. 08:37 All right. Do you know that one? 08:38 I know that from a long time ago... 08:40 Well. 08:41 But we can try it 08:43 if you're going to do it and what key, keying D. 08:44 Well, let's do it in D.

Yeah. 13:48 And I've written several songs on this guitar, I'll tell you, 13:50 just sat around in evening and night. 13:52 But I have something 13:54 that it's not professionally done like yours... 13:56 Right. 13:58 But my dad, we had little reel to reel, 13:59 some of you're old enough, 14:00 if you remember the little reel to reel recorders 14:02 that laid flat. 14:03 And my uncle Olen, they had 12 kids, 14:05 and we had five and my Uncle Brad had eight. 14:08 And a lot of times on Sabbath or Sabbath afternoon 14:11 we get to each other's house 14:13 and usually go over to Uncle Olen's 14:14 or my folk's house. 14:16 And they just turn on recorders and different kids they'd say, 14:19 hey, you sing this song, you sing that one, 14:22 and why don't we sing 14:23 some kind of like we're doing here today. 14:25 Right, sure. 14:26 Why don't we just try something together 14:27 and so I found a CD, it wasn't the CD, 14:31 of course reel to reel, 14:32 but my brother put it on a CD 14:34 and send it to me and he said, 14:36 this is you singing 14:37 "Have faith, hope, and charity." 14:39 Now I think the last program you and I did... 14:41 Yeah. 14:42 I kind of have faith, hope, and charity. 14:44 And I think Dale Evans, and Roy Rogers sing it. 14:46 Right. 14:48 I'm not sure who wrote it, 14:49 I think Mr. Cornell had wrote it, 14:50 but anyway that's the song, 14:52 and of all songs and I hadn't realized it 14:54 but so it's actually on tape. 14:55 Right. 14:57 Now my mother back in '40s and early '50s 15:00 and my dad they slur, no, when you sing. 15:04 So I haven't realized it seven years old 15:06 I heard myself and I say, 15:08 what am I doing kind of slurring the words, 15:09 you know... 15:11 Imitating them, yeah, it's what you hear. 15:12 Yeah, you just, you become what you behold. 15:13 Right. 15:15 But this is just a little clip recorded right at the house, 15:18 I think my dad is just playing little rhythm guitar 15:21 and I'm singing 15:22 "Have faith, hope, and charity". 15:23 Great. Let's hear it. 15:25 This is my little cousin Danny, age seven. 15:27 He's going to sing 15:28 "Have faith, hope and charity". 15:31 Have faith, hope and charity 15:36 That's the way to live successfully 15:40 How do I know, the Bible tells me so 15:46 Be good to your enemies 15:50 The Blessed Lord will surely please 15:54 How do I know, the Bible tells me so 16:00 Don't worry about tomorrow 16:05 Just be good today I know the Lord will bless you 16:12 And guide you on your way 16:15 All the Bible says have faith, hope and charity 16:21 That's the way to live successfully 16:25 How do I know, the Bible tells me so 16:31 That is great. 16:32 You know, that reminds me of the Little Rascals. 16:35 Oh, yeah. I can just see you... 16:36 Absolutely. 16:38 Oh, my goodness, that is such a great. 16:39 Absolutely, now this was done about 16:41 almost 20 years before yours 16:42 'cause you weren't even thought of in 1958, right? 16:45 Right. 16:47 You know, you were just way down 16:48 the road from that. 16:50 Way down from that. Yeah. 16:51 But you know, this impacts young people 16:54 because you're raised in a house 16:56 and everybody doesn't have 16:57 to be good musicians or great singers, 16:59 but the idea that you're doing something together as family... 17:02 Right. 17:03 And then the songs that you do are praising the Lord. 17:06 Now a couple years ago two or three years ago, 17:09 you were with the Brady Trio 17:12 and you did a CD and it's beautiful, 17:15 and I love the arrangement of, 17:16 it says, you may ask me how I know. 17:19 Yeah. My God is real. 17:21 Well, I grew up here and I think the first song 17:24 I ever remember my mom and dad doing is a duet, 17:28 and they didn't travel to a lot of churches, 17:30 but actually when before they were Christians, 17:34 my dad had a radio program with a country band. 17:37 And I think for almost five years 17:38 in West Frankfort area near Southern Illinois 17:41 but they did country music. 17:43 But after he became a Christian he would, 17:45 my mother in 1951, and my father in 1954, 17:50 they didn't really travel around in churches 17:52 or be like the Partons and doing album or anything. 17:55 But, you know, at our own church 17:56 or somebody would say, 17:58 hey, come and sing somewhere, they would, 17:59 but they sang gospel music 18:01 and I found the little clip of them 18:04 that's on old reel to reel and they're doing that song. 18:07 And the title, actual title of it is what? 18:10 His Hand in Mine. His Hand in Mine. 18:11 Yeah. Let's hear it. 18:13 Okay, and we'll do maybe just a verse and chorus of that. 18:14 Oh, yeah. Yeah, yeah, good. 18:27 You may ask me how I know 18:32 My God is real 18:38 You may doubt the things I say 18:42 And doubt the way I feel 18:49 But I know he's real today 18:54 He'll always be 18:59 I can feel his hand in mine 19:03 And that's enough for me 19:10 I will never walk alone 19:15 He holds my hand 19:20 He will guide each step I take 19:24 And if I falter, he will understand 19:31 Till the day he tells me why 19:36 He loves me so 19:41 I can feel his hand in mine 19:45 That's all I need to know 19:49 Okay. That is so good. 19:51 So you just turn the tape recorder on 19:54 and whatever happens just happen 19:56 'cause there's no editing, 19:57 there's no going back and recording it so. 19:59 Right. 20:00 I'm sure today if we could go back 20:01 and fix some of those things, we would. 20:03 Right. 20:04 But it's really neat like my father died in 1974, 20:07 so just to hear his voice like that and my mother in '99 20:11 to hear them singing, it takes me back. 20:15 And really that's the foundation 20:17 that I have here, 20:20 I'm right at 66 years old, 20:23 and that foundation is still there for me today. 20:27 I still look back at my parents 20:30 and my dad especially had so much wisdom, 20:33 he had commonsense, 20:34 and today would seems to be something 20:36 that's disappearing. 20:38 Dying commodity. 20:39 Yeah, it's a commodity for sure. 20:41 But I think of things that I do 20:43 and decisions I make in ministry 20:45 and even in business, 20:47 though he didn't really have a big business at all. 20:50 We were very poor, he was disabled at 36 years old 20:53 with a heart attack 20:55 and couldn't really work much after that. 20:57 These principles and these foundations 21:00 are what I really live on here today. 21:03 And I think back to these songs, it was so neat, 21:05 I just heard this the other night, 21:06 hadn't heard it in years. 21:08 But you may ask me how I know... 21:09 Yeah. I love that. 21:11 It's beautiful and then why don't you sing 21:12 just a little bit of that for me? 21:14 I'm not sure if I know, I'll play it here. 21:16 Okay. 21:58 I will never walk alone 22:02 He holds my hand 22:08 And he will guide each step I take 22:12 And if I fall 22:15 I know he will understand 22:20 Till the day he tells me why 22:26 He loves me so 22:31 Sing it. 22:32 I can feel his hand in mine 22:36 That's all I need to know 22:50 That's beautiful. 22:53 The second verse is pretty, 22:55 I'm not sure I know all the words 22:56 but it says something like... 22:58 Other friends may never know 23:05 The pain I bear 23:11 Other friends may never see or something 23:17 The heartache 23:18 And I forget the words, do you know them? 23:20 No, I don't. It's beautiful. 23:21 Other friends 23:22 it's basically may never see the pain, 23:25 they'll never see the teardrops in my eyes, 23:28 but they'll, God does. 23:30 Yeah. 23:31 God sees it, 23:32 so no matter what happens I reach out, 23:35 His hand is there and His hand is in mine. 23:38 I may falter but I'll never fail, 23:41 because Jesus holds my hands. 23:44 You may ask me how I know 23:51 My God is real 23:56 You may doubt the things I say 24:01 Or doubt the way I feel 24:08 But I know He's real today 24:14 He'll always be 24:20 I can feel His Hand in mine 24:25 And that's enough for me 24:32 Yeah. 24:33 Well, some of those old songs. 24:35 Wonderful, you know, there's another song 24:37 that I love "Never Grow Old." 24:42 Oh, yeah. Do you know that one? 24:43 You remember that one? 24:44 Back in the air, those are songs again growing up, 24:46 I'm not sure even who wrote it, 24:47 but Never Grow Old we'll look it up 24:49 for another program 24:51 or maybe some of you can email us 24:52 and say, hey, I looked it up. 24:54 But the song Never Grow Old 24:56 that's one of my grandpa's favorite songs 24:59 and then at church I remember 25:01 this dear old saint named Jill Vineyard 25:04 and she was in her 80s, 25:06 and she was just not, 25:07 as all of us we get older and not what we're used to be 25:10 but she would get up and sing Never Grow Old. 25:13 And she was not a singer 25:15 but I was always so ministered to, 25:16 I was probably in my 20s, but I loved hearing her sing. 25:20 Why don't you sing it? 25:21 I have heard of a land 25:26 On the faraway strand 25:30 It's a beautiful home of the soul 25:38 It's built by Jesus on high 25:43 Where we never shall die 25:48 'Tis a land where 25:51 We'll never grow old 25:56 If you know how to sing it. 25:58 Never grow old 26:03 Never grow old 26:07 In the land where 26:10 We'll never grow old 26:17 Never grow old 26:20 Where we'll never grow old 26:26 In the land where 26:29 We'll never grow old 26:34 And there's another one, I like this song. 26:37 Soon we'll come to the end of life's journey 26:44 Okay, I remember that. 26:45 And perhaps 26:47 We'll never meet anymore 26:53 'Til we gather 26:56 In heaven's bright city 27:02 Far away on that beautiful shore 27:08 If we never meet again. 27:10 If we never meet again 27:14 This side of heaven 27:19 As we struggle 27:21 Through this world and its strife 27:27 There's another meeting place 27:31 Somewhere in heaven 27:35 By the side of the river of life 27:42 Where the charming roses... 27:44 Where the charming roses bloom 27:48 Forever 27:52 And where separation comes 27:56 No more 28:00 If we never meet again 28:04 This side of heaven 28:09 I will meet you 28:11 On that beautiful shore 28:17 Wow. 28:35 Absolutely beautiful. That's right. 28:37 You know, just in the last few weeks 28:40 that I've lost several people that are friends, 28:43 and people that have been dear to me, 28:45 and I've had a couple of people call, 28:48 and I'm actually gonna call them back just recently. 28:51 Someone just lost her mother, and someone lost their wife. 28:55 And I think a promise maybe 28:59 we should all as Christians say, 29:01 you know, what? 29:03 If we don't see each other when we're parting 29:04 or maybe just going over the family, 29:06 you're going to church somewhere you say, 29:08 hey, if we don't meet on this side of heaven, 29:11 I'll meet you on that beautiful shore. 29:12 Yeah. 29:13 And that's a promise, 29:15 and that's a promise for the kids 29:16 and their parents, 29:18 and recently I heard a parent who said, 29:21 they knew they were dying and they said, 29:23 all I want to know 29:24 is that I can meet you in heaven. 29:26 They will meet you basically on that beautiful shore, 29:30 and so, you know, that mean so much to us. 29:32 Think about it, 29:33 Jesus is coming soon one way or the other. 29:37 Right? Yeah. 29:38 Many of us today 29:39 it could be me, it could be you, 29:41 may be some of the viewers, we may not have tomorrow. 29:43 We may think we have the health right now. 29:45 We may think we got the world in our hands 29:48 and world by the tail as they say the old song, 29:51 but anything can happen, 29:53 so life is bit of fleeting moment. 29:56 And the Bible says in Job, 29:57 it says, "Man that is born of a woman 29:59 is few days, and full of trouble. 30:02 He cometh forth like a flower, 30:03 and is cut low and fleeth also as a shadow, 30:06 and continueth not till the heavens be no more." 30:10 I mean, you talk about humbling summary of life... 30:13 That's right. 30:14 Man is born of woman, 30:16 it's few days and full of trouble, 30:18 and we get so caught up in the things around us. 30:20 Maybe we think we're good at what we do, 30:22 or that we have this, or we have that, 30:24 or smarter than the guy next to us, 30:27 or we know something. 30:28 Hey, we're all in the same boat, 30:30 without Jesus, there is no hope for tomorrow. 30:33 Right. 30:35 Nothing, I can't imagine what it would be like, 30:37 it would be so depressing, especially getting up my age. 30:41 So think about it when you die that's all it was. 30:44 Whatever you did on this earth it's gone, it's there, 30:48 but to think that soon and very soon 30:51 when Jesus comes back in the clouds of glory. 30:54 It says, every eye shall see him 30:56 those appears to Him first, 30:58 everybody will see Him come back. 31:00 And those which are alive and remain, 31:03 those who are followers of Christ 31:05 shall be caught up together 31:07 to meet the Lord in the air, 31:09 and so shall we ever be with the Lord. 31:12 Yeah, and you know, a lot of us 31:14 are worried about getting our life insurance, 31:17 making sure we have our trust and all of that taking care of, 31:20 but no greater gift 31:22 than that we can give to our family 31:26 and our loved ones, our friends and saying, 31:29 I'll meet you on that other side 31:32 and we'll live together. 31:33 So we wanna, what we wanna do that we're singing, 31:35 we're having fun 31:37 but we want this to be a time of fellowship, 31:39 the time of prayer, the time of singing, 31:41 time of ministering 31:42 and maybe a song that we could do 31:44 and I think that's a name of your album 31:46 I saw a while ago, 31:47 "I Will Serve Thee." 31:48 Yeah. 31:50 Because that's a most important decision 31:51 you can make, 31:53 we can make on earth today 31:55 is to say that we will serve the Lord. 31:58 Do you want me to do the melody, and you...? 32:00 Yeah, we'll sing right here. Okay. 32:02 I will serve thee 32:08 Because I love thee 32:14 You have given life 32:20 To me 32:26 I was nothing 32:32 Before you found me 32:39 You have given life 32:45 To me 32:52 Heartaches 32:57 Broken pieces 33:03 Ruined lives are why 33:09 You died on Calvary 33:17 Your touch 33:21 Was what I longed for 33:28 You have given life 33:34 To me 33:40 You have given life 33:47 To me 33:53 Play a little bit of that, would you, Tim? 34:39 Heartaches 34:42 Broken pieces 34:48 Ruined lives are why 34:54 You died on Calvary 35:01 Your touch 35:04 Was what I longed for 35:11 You have given life 35:18 To me 35:25 Amen. 35:26 Thank you, Danny.
