This is a very special song in a traditional setting. Yes, you guess it right. It is a picture of how a Church should come together in praise and worship! Not the concert type or decorating the stage with disco lights and smoke. We need to go back to the old country church where people can just come and sing along!!! Amen? Be blessed by this Gaither gospel song “The Old Country Church”lead by James Blackwood, Jack Toney, Squire Parsons, Ben Speer, George Younce, Ernie Haase, and Glen Payne.

“The Gaither Vocal Band is an American southern gospel vocal group, named after its founder and leader Bill Gaither. Founded in the early ’80s, Gaither Vocal Band is one of America’s leading faith-based vocal groups. While 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. On March 1, 2017, it was announced that the Gaither Vocal Band lineup consisted of Reggie Smith, Wes Hampton, Adam Crabb, Todd Suttles, and Bill Gaither. Although the group started out recording contemporary Christian music in the 1980s, it became known for southern gospel after the popularity of the Gaither Homecoming videos.” (Source: Wikipedia)

The Old Country Church Lyrics

Oh, I’d like to go back
To that old country church
To hear the songs of praise
(Songs of praise)
How the people would sing
It would make the rafters ring
At that old, at that old country church

Shall we gather at the river
The beautiful, the beautiful river
Gather with the saints at the river
That flows from the throne of God

Oh, I’ll never forget
At that old country church
How the glory of the Lord came down
And the children would smile
As they shouted down the aisle
Of that old, of that old country church

In the sweet bye and bye
We shall meet on that beautiful shore
In the sweet bye and bye
We shall meet on that beautiful shore

Then on sunday I’d see
All my friends dear to me
At that old (at that old)
Country church (country church)
When we’d kneel down to pray’r
Everybody would be there
At that old (at that old)
Country church

Leaning (leaning)
Leaning (I’m leaning)
Safe and secure from all alarm
Leaning (leaning, leaning)
Leaning (I’m leaning)
Leaning on the everlasting arm

Now the years have gone by
And so many have died
At that old country church (country church)
But they’re on the other shore
Where they’ll sing forever more
As they did at that old country church

I’m redeemed (oh, I’m redeemed)
By Love Divine (by Love Divine)
Oh, glory, glory (Christ is mine)
Christ is mine (Christ is mine)
Oh, to Him (oh, to him)
I now resign (I now resign)
(I have been) I have been redeemed

I’m redeemed (oh, I’m redeemed)
By Love Divine (by Love Divine)
Oh, glory, glory (Hallelujah)
Christ is mine (He is mine)
Oh, to Him (oh, to him)
I now resign (I now resign)
(I have been) I have been redeemed

At that old country church

I’m redeemed (oh, I’m redeemed)
By Love Divine (by Love Divine)
Oh, glory, glory (Christ is mine)
Christ is mine (Christ is mine)
Oh, to Him (oh, to him)
I now resign (I now resign)
(I have been) I have been redeemed

I’m redeemed (oh, I’m redeemed)
By Love Divine (by Love Divine)
Oh, glory, glory (Christ is mine)
Christ is mine (Christ is mine)
Oh, to Him (oh, to him)
I now resign (I now resign)
(I have been) I have been redeemed!

At that old country church

Mary, Did You Know

Gaither Vocal Band, Mark Lowry

Mary did you know that your baby boy will some day walk on water?
Mary did you know that your baby boy will save our sons and daughters?
Did you know that your baby boy has come to make you new?
This child that you’ve delivered, will soon deliver you

Mary did you know that your baby boy will give sight to a blind man?
Mary did you know that your baby boy will calm a storm with his hand?
Did you know that your baby boy has walked where angels trod?
And when your kiss your little baby, you have kissed the face of God

Oh Mary did you know The blind will see, the deaf will hear, the dead will live again
The lame will leap, the dumb will speak, the praises of the lamb

Mary did you know that your baby boy is Lord of all creation?
Mary did you know that your baby boy would one day rule the nations?
Did you know that your baby boy is heaven’s perfect Lamb?
This sleeping child you’re holding is the great I am

Why Me Lyrics


Why me, Lord? What have I ever done
To deserve even one of the pleasures I’ve known?
Tell me, Lord, what did I ever do to be worthy
Of You and the kindness you’ve shown?

Lord help me, Jesus, I’ve wasted it
So help me, Jesus, I know what I am
Now that I know that I’ve needed you
So help me, Jesus, my soul’s in your hand


Try me, Lord, if you think there’s a way
I can try to repay all I’ve taken from you
Maybe, Lord, I can show someone else
What I’ve been through myself on my way back to you


Lord help me, Jesus, I’ve wasted it
So help me, Jesus, I know what I am
Now that I know that I’ve needed you
So help me, Jesus, my soul’s in your hand

[Outro]
Jesus, my soul’s in your hand

Legendary and Award Winning Country Music Artist Merle Haggard did a wonderful version of this timeless gospel hymn, One Day at a Time. Such a blessing to hear a gospel song from a man who may have messed up in the past. His voice conveys a heart that is healed and brings a powerful message out this song. Indeed, we are only human who can easily fall, but we have a perfect Savior, Jesus Christ, who can emphatize with us as long as we continue to trust and follow Him. Be blessed.

One Day at a Time Lyrics

Merle Haggard

I’m only human I’m just a man
Help me to believe in what I could be and all that I am
Show me the stairway that I have to climb
Lord for my sake teach me to take one day at a time
One day at a time sweet Jesus that’s all I’m asking from you
Give me the strength to do everyday what I have to do
Yesterday’s gone sweet Jesus and tomorrow may never be mine
So for my sake teach me to take one day at a time

Do you remember when you walked among men
Well Jesus you know if you’re looking below it’s worse now than then
Pushing and shoving crawding my mind
So for my sake teach me to take one day at a time
One day at a time sweet Jesus that’s all I’m asking from you
Give me the strength to do everyday what I have to do
Yesterday’s gone sweet Jesus and tomorrow may never be mine
Yes just for my sake teach me to take one day at a time

Happy Thanksgiving! “In Everything Give Thanks!” Gaither feauturing Charlotte Ritchie, Jeff & Sheri Easter

In Featured, Gospel Music, Headline

This is a beautiful song to start a new day! No matter what circumstances that we are at the moment, be it good or bad, we have to give thanks to the Lord our God. The Bible say in 1 Thessalonians 5:18: “in everything give thanks; for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus for you.” What are you thankful for today? Count them one by one! Waking up from sleep is a good starting point. Glory to God!

Gaither In Everything Give Thanks [Live]

“In everything give thanks, with all your heart give praise,

for the Lord we serve will never let you down.
In every thing give thanks, with all your heart believe

that the Lord can take a circumstance and turn it all around.”
– In Everything Give Thanks Lyrics

In Everything Give Thanks

Jeff & Sheri Easter, Charlotte Ritchie

In everything give thanks, with all your heart give praise
For the Lord we serve will never let you down.
In everything give thanks, with all your heart believe
That the Lord can take a circumstance
And turn it all around.

When you want sunshine to brighten up your day,
But you find the clouds rain on your parade;
Don’t forget somewhere someone you may not know
Is thanking God for a rain to make the crops grow.

When troubles trouble you and you think life’s not fair
When you need someone and there’s no one there;
Remember all the times that you feel alone are the
Times He’ll use to make you strong.
