“The Love of God” – A Very Moving Live Performance of Gaither Vocal Band

In Gospel Music, Headline, Inspirational

The Gaither Vocal Band wonderfully sang this old hymn penned by Frederick M. Lehman, entitled “The Love of God.” Lehmam was a California businessman that lost everything through business reverses and was forced to spend his working hours in manual labor. He was working in a Pasadena packing house packing oranges and lemons into wooden crates when he wrote this song after he was inspired by a Sunday sermon at church. Beautiful message and now made alive through the awesome voices of the Gaither Vocal Band. Be blessed!

The Gaither Vocal Band was founded in the early ’80s by renowned Christian music leader Bill Gaither. GVB became one of America’s leading southern gospel vocal groups. While Bill Gaither remained the only original member of the ensemble, many well-regarded CCM/gospel singers have passed through the band’s ranks, including Russ Taff, Guy Penrod, Wes Hampton, Michael English, Mark Lowry, and David Phelps. Today, the Gaither Vocal Band roster is comprised of five power-packed voices, including Bill Gaither, Wes Hampton, Adam Crabb, Todd Suttles and Reggie Smith.

The Love of God Lyrics

  1. The love of God is greater far
    Than tongue or pen can ever tell;
    It goes beyond the highest star,
    And reaches to the lowest hell;
    The guilty pair, bowed down with care,
    God gave His Son to win;
    His erring child He reconciled,
    And pardoned from his sin.
    • Refrain:
      Oh, love of God, how rich and pure!
      How measureless and strong!
      It shall forevermore endure—
      The saints’ and angels’ song.
  2. When hoary time shall pass away,
    And earthly thrones and kingdoms fall,
    When men who here refuse to pray,
    On rocks and hills and mountains call,
    God’s love so sure, shall still endure,
    All measureless and strong;
    Redeeming grace to Adam’s race—
    The saints’ and angels’ song.
  3. Could we with ink the ocean fill,
    And were the skies of parchment made,
    Were every stalk on earth a quill,
    And every man a scribe by trade;
    To write the love of God above
    Would drain the ocean dry;
    Nor could the scroll contain the whole,
    Though stretched from sky to sky.

The Love of God by Frederick M. Lehman, 1917

“I Believe in a Hill Called Mount Calvary” – Gaither Vocal Band (Official Live)

By

On August 13, 2024

In Gospel Music, Headline, Inspirational

The story of Corrie Ten Boom inspired Gospel musicians and couple Bill and Gloria Gaither to write “I Believe in a Hill Called Mt. Calvary.” Corrie Ten Boom is the sole survivor among her family members from the concentration camps during the World War II.  Having experienced the horrors of the war in Nazi Germany, Ten Boom’s story is that terrible. Despite such, her experiences became a powerful testimony of her faith in Christ and later resulted in a beautiful song. It is in Mt Calvary where Jesus did the ultimate sacrifice for us all! Praise His most holy Name!

The Gaither Vocal Band was founded in the early ’80s by renowned Christian music leader Bill Gaither. GVB became one of America’s leading southern gospel vocal groups. While Bill Gaither remained the only original member of the ensemble, many well-regarded CCM/gospel singers have passed through the band’s ranks, including Russ Taff, Guy Penrod, Wes Hampton, Michael English, Mark Lowry, and David Phelps.

I Believe in a Hill Called Mount Calvary

Gaither Vocal Band

I believe in a hill called mount calvary
I believe whatever the cost
And when time has surrendered
And earth is no more
I’ll still cling to the old rugged cross

I believe that this life with its great mysteries
Surely someday will come to an end
But faith will conquer the darkness and death
And will lead at last to my friend

I believe that the Christ
Who was slain on the cross
Has the power to change lives today
For He changed me completely
A new life is mine
And that is why by the cross
I will stay

I believe in a hill called mount calvary
I believe whatever the cost
And when time has surrendered
And earth is no more
I’ll still cling to the old rugged cross

Let Freedom Ring Lyrics

Gaither Vocal Band

Deep within the heart has always known that there was freedom
Somehow breathed into the very soul of life
The prisoner, the powerless, the slave have always known it
There’s something that keeps reaching for the sky

And even life begins because a baby fights for freedom
And songs we love to sing have freedom’s theme
Some have walked through fire and flood to find a place of freedom
And some faced hell itself for freedom’s dream

Let freedom ring wherever minds know what it means to be in chains
Let freedom ring wherever hearts know pain
Let freedom echo through the lonely streets where prisons have no key
We can be free and we can sing, let freedom ring

God built freedom into every fiber of creation
And He meant for us to all be free and whole
When my Lord bought freedom with the blood of His redemption
His cross stamped pardon on my very soul

I’ll sing it out with every breath, I’ll let the whole world hear it
This hallelujah anthem of the free
That iron bars and heavy chains can never hold us captive
The Son has made us free and free indeed

Let freedom ring down through the ages from a hill called Calvary
Let freedom ring wherever hearts know pain
Let freedom echo through the lonely streets where prisons have no key
You can be free and you can sing let freedom ring
Let freedom echo through the lonely streets where prisons have no key
You can be free and you can sing let freedom ring
You can be free and you can sing, let freedom ring, let freedom ring

What a Lovely Name Lyrics

There’s a name above all others,
Wonderful to hear, bringing hope and cheer.
It’s the lovely name of Jesus,
Evermore the same, what a lovely name.

What a lovely name, the name of Jesus.
Reaching higher far, than the brightest star.
Sweeter than the songs they sing in heaven.
Let the world proclaim, what a lovely name.

He’ll return in clouds of glory
Saints of ev’ry race, shall behold His face.
With Him enter heaven’s city,
Ever to acclaim, what a lovely name.

Oh what a lovely name, this name called Jesus.
Reaching higher far, than the brightest star.
And it’s sweeter than all the songs they’re singing in heaven.
Let the world proclaim, what a lovely name.

Oh what a lovely name, this name called Jesus.
Reaching higher far, than the brightest star.
And it’s sweeter than all the songs they’re singing in heaven.
Let the world proclaim,
Let this world proclaim
Evermore the same
It’ll always be the same
What a lovely name.
A lovely name.

I’ll Fly Away Lyrics

Song by Gaither Vocal Band, Larry Gatlin, and The Oak Ridge Boys

Some glad morning when this life is over
I’ll fly away
To a home on God’s celestial shore
I’ll fly away

I’ll fly away, oh, glory
I’ll fly away
When I die, hallelujah, by and by
I’ll fly away

When the shadows of this life have gone
I’ll fly away (eh, eh, I’ll fly)
Like a bird from prison bars has flown
I’ll fly away (eh-eh, I’ll fly away, in the morning)

I’ll fly away, oh, glory (oh-oh-oh)
I’ll fly away (I’ll fly away, I’ll fly away)
When I die, Hallelujah, by and by
I’ll fly away

Eh, just a few more weary days, and then
I’m gonna fly away, yeah
To a that land where joy will never end
I, I’ll fly away

I’ll fly away, oh, glory
I’ll fly away (I’ll fly away, in the morning)
When I die, hallelujah, by and by
I’ll fly away

Oh
Whoa, I’ll fly away (I will fly away)
I’ll fly away, oh, hallelujah
I’ll fly away (fly away)
I’ll fly away (fly away)
Whoa, when I die, hallelujah, by and by
I’ll fly away (fly away)
I’ll fly away, yeah, in the morning
