About The Booth Brothers

The Booth Brothers was initially formed in the 1950s by Ron Booth Sr. with his brothers Charles, James, and Wallace, after they moved to Detroit. However, Ron decided to disband the group in 1963 when he joined The Toney Brothers. In 1990, Ron’s youngest son, Michael, decided to revive the group with his brother Ronnie II (b. June 28, 1965), and his father. They started performing and touring around Florida and recorded several albums. In 1998, Ron decided to retire and the remaining brothers started looking for a replacement. They recorded several albums with Joseph Smith, who was later replaced by Jim Brady. Brady remained with them until 2014, at which point he was replaced by Paul Lancaster.

Three Wooden Crosses Lyrics

A farmer and a teacher, a hooker and a preacher
Ridin’ on a midnight bus bound for Mexico
One’s headed for vacation, one for higher education
And two of them were searchin’ for lost souls
That driver never ever saw the stop sign
And eighteen wheelers can’t stop on a dime

There are three wooden crosses on the right side of the highway
Why there’s not four of them, Heaven only knows
I guess it’s not what you take when you leave this world behind you
It’s what you leave behind you when you go

That farmer left a harvest, a home and eighty acres
The faith and love for growin’ things in his young son’s heart
And that teacher left her wisdom in the minds of lots of children
Did her best to give ’em all a better start
And that preacher whispered, “Can’t you see the Promised Land?”
As he laid his blood-stained bible in that hooker’s hand

There are three wooden crosses on the right side of the highway
Why there’s not four of them, Heaven only knows
I guess it’s not what you take when you leave this world behind you
It’s what you leave behind you when you go

That’s the story that our preacher told last Sunday
As he held that blood-stained bible up
For all of us to see
He said “Bless the farmer, and the teacher, and the preacher
Who gave this Bible to my mama
Who read it to me”

There are three wooden crosses on the right side of the highway
Why there’s not four of them, now I guess we know
It’s not what you take when you leave this world behind you
It’s what you leave behind you when you go

There are three wooden crosses on the right side of the highway

If We Never Meet Again Lyrics

The Booth Brothers

Soon we’ll come to the end of life’s journey
And perhaps we’ll never meet any more
Till we gather in Heaven’s bright city
Far away on that beautiful shore

If we never meet again this side of Heaven
As we struggle through this world and it’s strife
There’s another meeting place somewhere in Heaven
By the side of the river of life.


Where the charming roses bloom forever
And where separations come no more
If we never meet again this side of Heaven
I will meet you on that beautiful shore
Oh, they say that we shall meet by the river

Where no storm clouds ever darken the sky
And they say that we’ll be happy in Heaven
In the wonderful sweet by and by
If we never meet again this side of Heaven

As we struggle through this world and it’s strife
There’s another meeting place somewhere in Heaven
By the side of the river of life.
Where the charming roses bloom forever

And where separations come no more
If we never meet again this side of Heaven
I will meet you on that beautiful shore
I will meet you…
I will meet you on that beautiful shore.

Multi-awarded Country music singer and American Idol Winner Carrie Underwood collaborated with the Gaither Vocal Band to record this amazing version of one of the most popular gospel songs ever written! “Because He Lives” is an anthem to many Christians and has brought to life again by Carrie Underwood. It was recorded live and what a brilliant voice of Carrie Underwood! Be blessed.

Carrie Underwood was born on March 10, 1983, Muskogee, Oklahoma, U.S.A.. She is an American country music performer who rose to stardom when she won the American Idol in 2005. She received the top prize of a recording contract with 19 Recordings/Arista Records, and the resulting album, Some Hearts (2005), was a massive commercial hit, eventually selling more than seven million copies and cementing Underwood’s status as one of American Idol’s most successful alumni. In 2007 she won Grammy Awards for best new artist and best female country vocal performance. Carrie returned to American Idol in 2007, performing a cover of the Pretenders’ “I’ll Stand by You.” Made available as a single on Apple’s iTunes service, the song was downloaded more than 300,000 times and became the first digital-only release to crack the top 10 of the Billboard singles chart. At the 2007 Country Music Association (CMA) Awards, Underwood claimed single-of-the-year honours for the feisty revenge song “Before He Cheats.” Her second album, Carnival Ride (2007), sold more than half a million copies in its first week of release, and in early 2008 she was inducted as a member of the Grand Ole Opry.

Because He Lives Lyrics

God sent His son, they called Him Jesus;
He came to love, heal and forgive;
He lived and died to buy my pardon,
An empty grave is there to prove my Savior lives!

Chorus
Because He lives, I can face tomorrow,
Because He lives, all fear is gone;
Because I know He holds the future,
And life is worth the living,
Just because He lives!

How sweet to hold a newborn baby,
And feel the pride and joy he gives;
But greater still the calm assurance:
This child can face uncertain days because He Lives!

Chorus
Because He lives, I can face tomorrow,
Because He lives, all fear is gone;
Because I know He holds the future,
And life is worth the living,
Just because He lives!

And then one day, I’ll cross the river,
I’ll fight life’s final war with pain;
And then, as death gives way to victory,
I’ll see the lights of glory and I’ll know He lives!

Chorus
Because He lives, I can face tomorrow,
Because He lives, all fear is gone;
Because I know He holds the future,
And life is worth the living,
Just because He lives!

Softly and Tenderly Lyrics

Softly and tenderly
Jesus is calling
Calling for you and for me
See on the portals
He’s waiting and watching
Watching for you and for me

Come home
Come home
Ye who are weary
Come home
Earnestly, tenderly
Jesus is calling
Calling “Oh sinner, come home”Why should we tarry
When Jesus is pleading
Pleading for you and for me
Why should we linger and heed not His mercies
Mercies for you and for me

Come home
Come home
Ye who are weary
Come home
Earnestly, tenderly
Jesus is calling
Calling “Oh sinner, come home”Oh for the wonderful love he has promised
Promised for you and for me
Though we have sinned, he has mercy and pardon
Pardon for you and for me

Come home
Come home
Ye who are weary
Come home
Earnestly, tenderly
Jesus is calling
Calling “Oh sinner, come home”Come home
Ye who are weary
Come home
Earnestly, tenderly
Jesus is calling
Calling “Oh sinner, come home”

Lord, I’m Ready To Go Home

James and Jeff Easter with Morgan Easter

Through the valleys of this life I have wondered

And I′ve worked for Jesus all along the way

But now life’s evening sun, for me is setting

I have reached the ending of my way

Lord, I′ve been faithful in the service you have given

And the harvest of the fields, Lord, I have done

But now, my steps are growing weary

Lord, I’m waiting, I’m ready to go home

Looking back upon the life I′ve lived for Jesus

I can see how he has blessed me all the way

And each tear I shed just helped to keep me humble

And each burden only taught me how to pray

Lord, I′ve been faithful in the service you have given

And the harvest of the fields, Lord, I have done

But now, my steps are growing weary

Lord, I’m waiting, I′m ready to go home

Though I hate to leave so many friends behind me

And the parting of our way will break my heart

But I’ll wait for them inside the gates of heaven

Where the children of God will never part

Lord I′ve been faithful in the service you have given

And the harvest of the fields, Lord, I have done

But now, my steps are growing weary

Lord, I’m waiting, I′m ready to go home

Lord I’m waiting, I’m ready to go home
