Hi, I've been pickin' for over sixty years. My fondest memories are of my mom and dad singing that song. So beautiful and so true. What a friend, indeed. Thank you so much. Shalom/gw. PS My wife, Iris, is ill. I would ask anyone who reads this and would be so inclined, to please pray for her. God bless!
@waynechurchill7212 Thank you! BTW. We are Scottish. I have read that the genesis of the word, Goodbye, is an abbreviation of the Scottish phrase "God be wi ye". So, Godbye :-)) Shalom/gw
Brother Doug if you would take that talent to heaven after I sit and look at the one that died for me which is jesus for a thousand years I'm going to come over to your mansion and watch and listen to you play those wonderful songs that you play on here and god bless you and keep picking and I'll keep watching.
this is what I call guitar playing very few on you tube and I mean very few can play like Douglas Kratz its a gift along with countless hours of practice that makes this kind of a guitar player I tip my Hat off to this man and I thank him for sharing his beautiful talent
Douglas Kratz , don't know what to say . God bless . I listened with intensity , was absorbed in your unique , meticulous style . Each note u played resounding clearly . I want to copy your style . Superb
Hi Douglas,just love watching you play,you do it so well. Love the old gospel songs. Would be awesome if you could do a lesson. You are so gifted. Cheers.Burle (Melbourne,Australia.)
Hi Doug,,iv listened to a couple of yr s and m8 they are bloody brill,,enjoyed listening to them,,if u fancy givin a couple of lessons on here feel free hahah,,,wishing u all the best take care Mac
@@bogeyboy2 Ok yes, I watched it a couple of times to see the headstock. I also have a Schecter Hellraiser flame top and I absolutely love it. The workmanship in those guitars is amazing. Yours is one of the nicest I've seen though for sure! Thanks and keep up the great work. Also like those sliding chord tones..wow
Very nice. Where or how can l get the back tune behind the melody. Thank you. That's sound so wonderful. I play with the piano a lot at my church. I love Christian music's.
@@bogeyboy2 hi I have done the same in the past and had regret, but I guess will all do it, as I said I sold them when I needed extra cash, I had a lovely early takamine jumbo , and bought a new Yamaha apx series and just didn’t like it and tried to buy it back but the guy would not. That guitar was the closest thing to a Martin it absolutely sizzled. I have a very old burns which I don’t play no more I guess that’s the next one for the chop had it around 40 years
Praise God for such a Talented Man and a Beautiful Instrument! Greatest version I have Ever Heard! Thank You!
What a friend we have in Jesus, thank you for your beautiful playing.

I wonder if Jesus digs guitar hymnals. Why shouldn’t he?
What effects do you us on this one
Boss ME 70.
Love your instrumentals. Just wondering where you find your backing tracks?
Back in those days I made them myself using a Boss 8 track digital recorder.
Fantastic, that you can make you're own guitars. It's very, very beautiful. The inlays our stunning 😍
wow
Please,Doug.. the tab
Jeffery, how to contact you for permission use?
Nice buddy! Looks like a PRS?
Schecter C1 Classic
Do you give lessons

Schecter C-1 Classic. I think they have discontinued this model.
