going on I was I was told this morning um and I see him sitting back there uh mun Mike D had to remind me that that game was going on so if you happen to see him jump up and shout yes that's because he's watching the game not moved by the spirit so um so yeah we just thank you all for for coming and uh and we especially want to thank the the Burgess Brothers and the Williams f family uh for so graciously donating their time and talents for this evening and uh we're just so excited to worship with them this evening so thanks to them um so I'd just like to take a few minutes and uh let you

these songs are sing alarms don't be afraid to sing in church I've always said that ferland husky in 1953 wrote this song fell by name of Carl Johnson brought that to my attention but anyways so it's entitled on the wings of a snowy [Music] On the Wings of a Snowy Dove Dove on the wings of the [Music] sow he said is pure s it's a sign from above from above on the wings of when trouble surrounds us

so much and we uh really would like to say it's a pleasure to be here with uh with the uh program this evening it's a great cause and being with the Burgess Brothers is just an added bonus we have so much in common with these guys and we just love singing and playing music with them so we're glad that they asked us down so but our next song is what I'm going to sing for you it was uh actually written by Jimmy for and he was one of the Statler Brothers he was that little guy the high tenor singer and he wrote this and a bluegrass band picked up on it da and Vincent and that's where we kind of took it off from but it's just a beautiful song and we love to do it it's one called I believe yes I've got something to say a minute I remember uh a few years ago I asked a person uh if they're going to heaven I said I hope so as a what do do you believe is your name written in the Lamb's Book of Life I don't know I said you don't have the Blessed Assurance I don't know H I said you do believe God correct oh I believe in a higher power okay a higher power h I listen to a Bible teacher he said there are atheists people who don't believe in God at all then there are people who believe in God which covers a multitude of this Earth and our country they believe in God but he says few believe God and what he says in his holy scriptures do you believe what God says do you have the Blessed Assurance of what God tells in in his scriptures do you believe what the Apostle Paul says that we're saved by grace through faith and not of any works at least any man should boast and that really hit home with me because it's believing God is what it's all about and when Mary was going to sing the song tonight I believe it just kind of inspired me uh to say something this evening so Mary go ahead and sing I I Believe believe I see the sun in the morning and when I feel the wind blow across my face and when I hear the sound of children playing I know it's a part of God's Amazing Grace and I believe there's a place called heaven and I believe in a place called calary and I believe in a man whose name is Jesus and I believe that he gave his life for [Music] me oh I was there the day my mom went to heaven and I held her hand as she closed her eyes to sleep and I felt the power of 10,000 angels take her soul away to be crowned at Jesus feet and I believe there's a place called heaven and I believe in a place called calary and I believe in a man his name is Jesus and I believe that he gave his life for me and I believe that he gave his [Music] [Music] life [Applause] we'll go back up to that words right on one of them stands there we kind of worked on this song the other day we T Carl into singing it but I forgot the words that I typed at home so uh he's going to read them out of this little book you got here if he can read the words I if not he's going to fake it pretty good there's songs written every day what F on and and if I can't read this I know you folks all know this song I need you to help me [Music] SS of Glory [Music] on I love to tell the story of unseen things above of Jesus and His glory of Jesus and his love I love to tell the story because I know is true it satisfies my longing as nothing else can do I love to tell the story will me glory to tell the story of Jesus and his love [Music] I love to tell this story for those who know it best seem hungering and thirsting to hear it like the rest and when in SS of Glory I sing a new new song be a of story that I have love so long I love to tell the story will be my glory tell the story of Jesus and his to tell the old story of [Music] Jesus [Applause] up yes I we're going to pick up the pace a little bit get back in a little bit of a Bluegrass mode I guess CU that's what we do 90% of the time anyway this is another sing along as well and this one actually we all kind of sing on the verses with this one but I'm sure it'll sound familiar as well it's kind of a little bit of a Bluegrass version of Swing Down Sweet Chariot stop and let me run Rick's got to tune up here just a little bit again I don't know if we actually told us our names but this is brother Dave my name is Mary got Carl over here and Rick over there in the end I think we match up with the bird to sign three of our names up here I think they got a Caryl and a Mary and a Dave for sure got I said we got a lot in common they got 10 kids we had 10 kids we asked them if they wanted the Rick and they said [Music] [Applause] no he didn't hesitate at all what what you talk about kick that b oh yeah they're good at telling banjo jokes then they'll say hey all right after they're done beating me up to say all right kick this song off [Music] really he told a story here last week uh banjo with a perfect pitch I said yeah banjos can be a perfect pitch is that what you're talking about they say no a banjo you throw in a dumpster without hitting the sides is a perfect pitch all right here's one called Swing Down Sweet Cherry [Music] Swing Down Sweet Cherry slow and easy I've got a on [Music] the I see home a of angels coming after me for car s down ride s down let me ride Ro I've got a home

[Music] home let me Rocky got on the other side got [Music] [Applause] other Carl thought that we might knock a little carbon out of these instruments just a little bit and picky one uh bluegrass music came from the theme of picking and grinning we really grin when we're not picking that I can tell you for a fact but uh we'll just share a couple courses and U of of a tune entitled the Cherokee In My Dreams Shuffle [Music] [Applause] that's what we do when we're not working uh a while back I put pen of paper and come up with a little tune uh having a little trouble sleeping there uh when we're listening to all the advertisements to do with that proposal three kind of remember that proposal three anyone here from Michigan any way so after about a week and not getting any sleep I'm going gez uh maybe to write some words down on a piece of paper something and see what it sounds like so I I did that and uh it was good for my heart and I believe my soul also and and a lot of times for the people that get a chance to witness what this family help us record um it's a in my dreams it was coming to me no no one ever says anything about that baby and uh got to be careful her have boogers coming out but uh in this song it's a it's the voice of an unborn child he he can't he can't see he can only hear about the world that is so near but he hears a voice about a woman's choice and what could that mean for me Could It Be My Destiny and and and here we [Music] Could It Be My Destiny go [Music] so excited for this chance at life not KN where I'll be and I hear people speaking loud and clear about all the things I'll see but when when the quiet time of day appears and the voices they're soft and strange I worry about what's going on is something about to change I can't see

a little bit right now I'm going to invite uh my daughter up Annie van hton and Annie's got a song on her heart and a few things she'd like to say we only got a half hour honored to be here um and finding Freedom Ranch is very close to my heart um at 17 years old is when my eating disorder started it took over my life and for many years I felt as though I were drowning in it and it consumed my life and the more it consumed me the further I swam out into it and the further I tried to be from God and it was until really recently that I learned that the only reason my head was still above water is because he didn't leave me and that's how I could start to heal and that's what finding Freedom Ranch is about a place to reach people like me help people in the name of Jesus and I think that's powerful and I think that's awesome [Music] you call me out upon the Water great unnown Fe [Music] May and there I find you in the O deep my Fai and I will call upon your name and keep my eyes above the way when o rise my soul will rest in your Embrace I am yours and you are [Music] mine yes you are your grace bounds in deepest Waters your Sovereign hand be my gu where feet may fail and
