Dearest Victor, Love the singing and the rhythm to it! Sadly that over the past decennia, God has been omitted from so many things. Schools no longer pray, often not at public gatherings. We are very lucky for living in the South where people are still very Christian! Hugs, Mariette
Yes, very cowardly! They want to look 'COOL' in the eyes of the audience... It's their ticket to hell! There will be NO escape when standing in front of our final judge! 👹
You hit a cord with us Bible believing Christians. The World just doesn't get it. They want to be the "friend", but they don't want to read and follow the sound doctrine. Just like the book I got buried in. I grew up singing "What a Friend we have in Jesus. Enjoyed the song, and loved the illustrations you used. God bless you dear friend.
Loved this song, Victor, and can't believe I've never heard it before today. Isn't it amazing to be able to call Jesus our friend? He is definitely the best one we could ever have. Blessings!
The singer, Dennis Weaver, is best known for his role as McCloud on TV. A detective who chased the baddies in the city traffic on a horse like a cowboy. Also in the film 1971 film "Duel" directed by Steven Spielberg. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duel_(1971_film)
Dennis Weaver was a Christian and recorded a few Country songs.
Yes, Jan. He was a Christian and also did not drink. Including when he had guests at parties he did not serve alcoholic drinks. He recorded a few Country songs but was not so well known in the music scene. More of a TV and cinema actor.
...in the US so many followers of Jesus have perverted the lessons that Jesus taught, I wonder if they will indeed enter the promised land?
ReplyDeleteI feel it is the same in the UK too. Christianity seems to be in retreat over here.
DeleteGod bless, Tom.

It is sad, isn't it? Over here in the UK Christianity is often mocked by comedians on TV and radio.
DeleteGod bless you, Mariette.

DeleteGuess who will have the last laugh!
DeleteIt makes me angry when a comedian on TV suddenly changes the subject and starts mocking God, or Jesus, or the Virgin Birth. Often using blasphemy too.
God bless, Mariette.
Yes, I'm totally with you!

ReplyDeleteI'm so pleased you liked this song, Wanda. It is good when Christians stand up for their beliefs.
DeleteGod bless.

What a great song! The best friend I've ever had ... even in those times I didn't realize it.
ReplyDeleteYes, it is a great song, Mevely. Sung by a great Country singer.
DeleteGod bless you.
It seems to be a hard sell these days. The days of me are more important than having a conversation with Jesus. How sad!
ReplyDeleteYes it is sad that people do not care to get to know Jesus, as a Saviour or as a friend.
DeleteGod bless you Bill, always.
He is the one Friend you can count on, no matter what. There's no way i want to live without Him, and without Him i dare not die.
ReplyDeleteAmen Mimi.
DeleteGod bless always.
I didn't know Denis Weaver was a Christian and recorded a few Country songs. I used to watch McCloud.
ReplyDeleteAll the best Jan
