Whenever I hear this song, it brings me to tears. It reminds me of when we’d walk into my grandma‘s home and she’d be sitting there reading her Bible and listening to George Beverly Shea. What happy memories those are. And now I am in the twilight of my life and here I am, reading my Bible and listening to George Beverly Shea.
What a wonderful life he had.A dedicated Christian and friend of Billy Graham.How wonderful it must have been to go on those crusades with Billy.I am looking forward,after Jesus and my family,to catch up with people like Billy when I get to heaven ,
The first and last time I visited with my grandma in hospice, she had George playing on repeat. Her lungs were full of mucus and her breathing was labored. But the whole time She had George lifting her Spirit. I saw her Monday and she passed on Saturday, getting to meet him face to face.
the God of Peace, sent the Peace of God - His only begotten Son, that we might have Peace with God ... “Now the Lord of peace himself give you peace always by all means. The Lord be with you all.”
amazing how his interpretation and style got much freer, and more moving, into this elder years, compared to his youth. of all the versions I have listened to by big names, so far this one is the only one where he really takes liberties (well, other than mahalia) , and stretches out the timing on "with arms wide open" , and "he'll pardon you" - and with so much emotion - so effective and moving! no, it is a great interpretation and rendition.
Mr. Shea's singing is wonderful. I look forward to meeting him one day - hopefully I'll have a voice then and I can join him as a background singer. That will take a really great miracle, but God is able.
Name spelled wrong in the caption for this video, but thanks for sharing it. So glad we were graced with your presence here on earth for 104 years, Mr. Shea. Your voice was golden and you also left us "The Wonder Of It All," which you wrote and the music to which you set Rhea Miller's poem "I'd Rather Have Jesus." You were my parents' favorite singer, and I've enjoyed hearing your recording for years (and one live performance.
God bless you and thanks for posting these. Please put "Everytime I Feel The Spirit" by sir George Beverly Shea. It's one of my favorite! If you don't have it please tell me where I can find it. Thank you!
MrReasonablethinker I'm not sure how that is insulting (McMahon was a beloved entertainer for decades), but then many Christians seem to look for reasons to consider themselves victims...

This hymn played in my mind many times, before I was saved

How Holy Spirit reveals himself through Mr. George singing so antionted..Thank you Lord..for his gift!
Jesus is as relevant today as he was 2000 years ago the only real peace a person will have is if Jesus is the center of their life HE IS PEACE
Gl Dec no better words spoken!

Every time I hear him sing I use to howl like a dog and mama used to slap me for it. ;)
Good Momma. Listen to her!
Can you turn the level up on this? It is way too low.
wasnt this guy like Billy Graham's Ed McMahon or something?
MrReasonablethinker
ummm, pretty sure i'm right.
MrReasonablethinker
I'm not sure how that is insulting (McMahon was a beloved entertainer for decades), but then many Christians seem to look for reasons to consider themselves victims...
MrReasonablethinker
i'm not criticizing christ or christianity, just the false humility of christians...
MrReasonablethinker
No need to be insulting.
MrReasonablethinker
No problem.
