@deborah I very strongly agree.
Awesome
Every single word conveyed respect and love for President Carter, spoken from the heart.
This was beautiful
The angels lifted and carried his soul to heaven. God bless you President Carter.
@maurad5378 Did God Personally Tell You That ??? 🤔
I'm sorry, but you're not God. We do not know where his soul is.
@@niwotmom8419only God knows we can only assume, we say positive things based on the humanitarian things that he did in world, and testimony of people who knew him personally as they stated in their own words rip Mr. President 😇🙏
Amen.
I know that's right 🕊 President Jimmy Carter has gone home to live with God ⚘
Such a beautiful tribute. Mr. Mayor I salute your kindness and the generous words you shared. I'm so grateful that we've had people like you and President Carter along our nation's journey. 🙏❤❤
@Hoppie Perfectly 💯% factsss.
Agreed! Well said
Incredible heart-warming speech on Jimmy Carter. Thank you Mr. Young.
What an orator. Beautiful tribute to Carter
This was a monumental speech!!!! I pray never to be forgotten 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
I loved Mr. Young's eulogy. It was heartfelt and special. I have listened to it twice and will listen again and again because it lifts me up.
@@janetpartyka5968 very nice comment 😇
Beautiful heartfelt Eulogy!❤
With all of the unkindness and hate and the devastation of the last election. We needed to be reminded of kindness and decency of one of the most well loved leaders of our nation to start the year. Our hearts need some mending
@@Reid-yy5nwyes, oh please God bless America
@@deloresredman4792 😇
A great speech from this civil rights leader. Hopefully Americans will listen to his thoughtful, kind and positive words of healing our differences.
Thank you, Mr. Young.
Carter was a true Christian, living it every day..by example. RIP, Mr. President.. Andrew Young's eulogy was perfection...
What A Man, What A Man, What A Mighty Good Man, Yes He Was!
It was so good to hear the resonation of Rev. Young's voice. Such an honor of the friendship between them.❤
92 years old!
@@avrilstewart3389wow…Really?
I think Kamala is really enthralled with Rev. Young.
@@virginiaknighten4687 Yes, and notice how Trump is falling asleep. 🙄
@@JC-tp5lz he never knows how to conduct himself
the nation and the politicians in the audience needed to hear the Holy Spirit speak through this man...may have mercy on us all.
Amen!
Not Donald and Natasha. Ambassador Young might as well be speaking Swahili.
"I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith."
~ St. Paul, 2nd Timothy 4:7 (NIV) 🕊
Love the quote 2nd Timothy 4:7...Spread your wings and fly high💔🕊...RIP President Jimmy Carter💔🙏🏾🕊🕊🕊
AMEN
Amen
Rev. Young’s reflections moved me greatly. So simple & heartfelt . ❤
A powerful salute. Well stated.
Certainly...indeed!
😢⁰Trump slumped over reading while everyone else listened to speaker. He is the only one leafing through the program. Uncouth doesn't begin to describe him.
He probably doesn’t understant what he’s reading.
Sore loser...deal with it.
He is closer to doing what it says than almost any of the other hypocritical ones in attendance.
OF COURSE AT A FUNERAL ALL YALL CAN TALK ABOUT IS TRUMP. IT WASNT ABOUT TRUMP .. BUT IF PRESIDENT TRUMP IS AROUND YALL MAKE IT ABOUT HIM.. PRESIDENT TRUMP IS & WILL BE THE BEST PRESIDENT ESPECIALLY THOSE FORMER PRESIDENTS AROUND HIM.. PRESIDENT DONALD TRUMP 2025!! ❤❤❤❤
Once again a true reflection of classlessness!!! Yet voted in twice to be President!
MAGA
Love this speech right from the heart!! 👏👏
There are few people in this world I would like to sit around Quiet and just listen to them for hours. Andrew Young in one of them
Me too!
It would be priceless to just listen to Andrew Young tell stories. He was there for it all.
What a lovely man! His words were just right! He was so gracious and honest I could listen to him go on and on about his memories of Jimmy Carter. I voted for president Carter twice, I hard to remind my daughter she was just born in 1976. The first president born in her beginning life.
I was nine years old as he was my first president I became aware of!
Love Ambassador Young . The last of the Civil Rights Icons .
Thought Andrew passed years ago
Loved Andrew Young's homily. He dropped the truth about Plains, GA!
Prayers for the family!!
What a special salute of words to a Grand and good man.
Tremendous eulogy.
This was a powerful eulogy RIP President Carter
Andrew Young is the most underrated statesman of the 20th Century and now 21st Century.
Amen, to that. Brilliant and ahead of his time.
Absolutely beautiful
92 years old. Wow.
Simply beautiful eulogy
That was excellent!!! One of the best funeral speeches i have ever heard.
Former ambassador to the UN, Andrew Young, delivered the most charming, inspiring and personal speech at the former president's funeral service. He knew him in a way perhaps many others didn't.
Thank you Rev. Young and thank you almighty God!
Beautiful words spoken. RIP President Carter. God bless the family. Keep the Faith. ❤
God Bless Jimmy Carter and his Family .❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
How rude and ignorant Trump is not paying attention at all. You can see quite clearly he isn’t interested. He doesn’t laugh or even smile at the anecdotes. He really is despicable
At least he attended the funeral out of respect
@@gangstagamegangstagame4467he's known for not attending formalities only what benefits him and/or his pocket
No one would have missed him
That's great, amazing speech and understanding to everyone real news is very beneficial to the states ,how are you doing today 🌺
@@gangstagamegangstagame4467 He was forced to go. He has no respect
Thinks he's better
Thank you for focusing on this part of the service.
Thank you Mr. Young. That was beautiful speech that touched my soul. God bless you President Carter for you service to the country. Rest in peace with Mrs. Carter...
President Carter truly was a blessing.
Someone looking uncomfortable at 1.57 🫣
Respect to all (except him!) from 🇬🇧
May we all look to President Jimmy Carter as an inspiration and example of walking in the light and love of God. A great example of how we too should treat one another and devote ourselves to always choosing kindness as much as possible in the days before us. "The greatest is the one who serves." That's what Jesus taught us as He washed the feet of His Apostles and laid His life down for all of us, from every nation, tribe and tongue. "Greater love hath no man than to lay his life down for his friends."
RIP President Carter
Being a witness of Sumter County growing up knowing the prized person that Sumter County birthed the 39th President of the United States. 🇺🇸Meeting and seeing him on different occasions was always a great experience. It was a pleasure to acknowledge when asked by comedian Spike Davis on a cruise where I was from, I said Americus, and his reaction was where I responded Carter country!
While today in Plains for Memorial Service, I had the chance to witness the presidential fly over saluting his presidential status. His story is my history. RIP PRESIDENT CARTER.
Yuck
Time brings about a moment like this to have presidents to sit together in the same room for a time such as this, let’s you know and hopefully remind each of them and us, how frail and short our lives are, it’s not about what you say but what you do to help the less fortunate, I hope they remember this moment and the words spoken to heart
Amen!!!
Thank God
For President Carter!!!
Thank you Mr. Young🙏🏽🙏🏽
Wonderful man Andrew. Young
Such a gracious tribute! Very touching and meaningful. God bless your spirit, President Jimmy Carter ❤🙏
This was awesome!!!
Everyone is smiling or laughing at the humor except X45 and tag along.
You're correct. The 45th and 47th was just stone faced as if he just finished a fight😂
Micah 6:8 "He has shown all you people what is good. And what does the LORD require of you? To act justly and to love mercy and to walk humbly with your God."
Beautiful!!!
Thank you for this reminder.
Can you spot the only person who’s not listening
The most disgusting orange one sitting there. Carter didn’t have one racist bone in his body. While the orange one embraces the clan.
The fool is bored. 😮😮😮😮
He didn't want to be there..Trump Trump
He wasn't bored ,He head was down ,could be that he was thinking about some things ,you don't know this 🤔@@henriettagoldsmith5056
He is stone cold, no soul.
@@PC-zz9cy
Clearly! Old “Don” is Falling Asleep……Again 🥴🥴🥴👀👀👀
Trump doesn’t get it does he
Noooo
No, neither does Melania. They look like they’re carved out of stone.
He doesn't even laugh when the others do. He doesn't want to be there because it is not about him.
That day was the one year anniversary of Melania mother past away. You want them to smiling and laughing?? You are truly a pos
President Trump 🇺🇸🦅
@@SandNSurf BOT!
He has no sense of humor. He's so self centered.
@@niwotmom8419 Take your meds, maybe you will feel better 😘
May he rest in peace. ❤🇺🇸
He has no idea why people are laughing warmly
He's in a church, the most uncomfortable place for evil to sit.
He's trying to think about what he can reword later. Too busy in his mind being deceitful!
1:54 he thought he was gonna get called out he was on edge😂 when I saw this this morning when the honorable pastor said that I was like uh ohh but then he said planes Georgia. I laughed.
Too complicated for him and his foreign wife to understand
@ exactly 🤧😂
I have listened to this homily more than 10 times delivered by Revd Young. The eulogy carey grace and wisdom that we all nees to reflect on
I truly believe that President Jimmy Carter was a man of GOD!!
This was so touching.
He's a blessing to hear and I'm happy he's still here. God continue to bless Rev. Young❤. RIP Jimmy and Rosalyn Carter. Two of God's most humble servants.
Thanks God for a president that loves all mankind!!! RIP President Carter and I know the Lord is very pleased with you because you showed us what love really is by your faith, belief, and love.
🙏🏾☮️🙏🏼❤️🫂
All the decent ones react to speeches with smiles, not Trump and Mel
@borisstancic9011 My thoughts exactly. The two of them looked bored rigid, with trump literally looking down his nose at times like it was all beneath him. Neither of them wanted to be there, it was written all over their faces and in the body language. Trump simply can't hide his.
Everyone else enthralled, engaged, leaning in, looking to the speaker who's words were honest and true.
Mel was forced
I'm sure she got paid before boarding at mar a lardo
I was a black kid in Atlanta when President Carter was elected... but what he contributed post his presidency is what made me proud. I've lived thru hate, racism and horrible men at the helm of this country. I have always been honored that Jimmy and Rosalyn represented my home state... I live in San Diego now for 30+ years. MAGA and what it stands for has set this country back at least 5 decades...😢😢
I could sense the power and presence of the Holy Spirit in that place. "The Dream" will never die, as long as someone remembers it. It was if the spirit or love was in that place. Thank you, ✝️ Lord!
Trump is fidgeting like a small child in church. His attention span is non existent if the conversation isn’t about him.
Stop with your TDS
@@m.schetr7398She made a great point.
😂💙😂💙
@@m.schetr7398 I didn’t know what a TDS was so I looked it up. I’m even happier that I have said this knowing it is upsetting the non thinking people who voted for him.
What a nice Speech , thk you 👏 😢🎉❤🎉😮 Rip May lord be with him 🎉
Such a powerful speech when people think Evil is good, Bible… Love is Power
Trump looks completely out of place ! He has no concept of what Goodness and greatness lay before him. Totally oblivious! The meanest man in the world😢
Exactly... and most people want this man for president!?😕
Melania looks totally miserable no interaction at all between her and her so called husband she can’t hide her contempt and I don’t blame her
Trump should have been sent to prison.☹️
Yes, he is evil and hateful
Please calm down😂. You really fire Trump😅
Look at Donnie scorning in his seat. Like the devil
😂😂😂Leave him alone!
TDS is true no matter what
I’m surprised his head isn’t spinning and body contorting, after all, the devil doesn’t like church.
Praying 🙏 for the family
Only one "president" can't be bothered to smile. Really shows the difference between a truly great man, Jimmy Carter, and a small, pitiful, self centered man.
That one's face would crack if he did smile!
Which one @@eleanormascitelli3023
YOU HAVE TDS AND YOUR BUS IS WAITING
Ha ha
He's thinking about his one Bible verse. Pitiful excuse of man. President Carter was a wonderful man. May he rest in peace.
AMBASSADOR ANDREW YOUNG "AN ACTUAL NATIONAL TREASURE"❗❗❗Thank you God for giving us this man AND THANK YOU FOR HAVING GIVEN US PRESIDENT JIMMY CARTER !!!!!!🌟🌟🌟🌟❤️💙❤️💙🙏🏽
Thank you Mr Youn you words were heartfelt. Condolences to the Carter family. Rest in Heaven with you beloved wife President Jimmy Carter.
Jimmy Cater 🎉🎉🎉🎉 Rest in peace wonder Person did for all of us in this wonderful world in America hell, yeah🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏❤️
Many of the eulogies were “Sunday School” directed at one person in that audience. President Biden’s speech was great! Perfect in every way. Thank you. 🙏 ❤
Yes.i saw that trump was being.schooled
Thank You! For an incredible and heart warming speech. President Carter was truly a man of GOD!. REST NOW, President Carter! Well Done, Sir. Well Done!
Thank you, Mr. Young, for your life's work, and your kind words for Jimmy Carter. I will never forget the brief moment I had the great honor to have met you in Atlanta. It was just an accidental encounter in Moroccan restaurant, but to meet one of America's greatest men, ever, was a moment I'll remember and cherish for the rest of my life.
Thank you for all you have done,
Alex
Incredible speech thank you Andrew Young RIH President Jimmy Carter 🙏🙏🙏
All the presidents and their spouses sat patiently listening intently to the eloquent eulogies honoring President Carter, with the exception of one. Trump sat hunched over most of the time fidgeting with the Memorial Program, his hangdog expression never changing once. The humorous jokes told by the speakers evidently went completely over his head as his expression never changed nor a smile ever passed his lips. This is the man millions of voters love and admire and re-elected to the highest office in the land?? I wonder if his eulogies will be filled with praise and words of genuine love and affection? President Carter lived a life devoted to God, Country and family. What an inspiration for future Presidents or citizens to aspire to. A genuine man of God. Thank you Mr. President. RIP
Everyone reacts to funerals differently. Very presumptous of you to assume to know Trumps true feelings. Maybe you should have been listening to the message in the eulogy rather than concerning yourself with the actions of past & current President's.
As usual it's Trump's fault
@@minders0815no some people morn differently - he was there paying respects to former president - 😇
Your deranged obsession with Trump has been noted. Not everyone is going to react the same. We aren't all mindless slave lemmings like you are.
Sepertinya anda memiliki kebiasaan buruk!!
Suka menilai orang lain. Padahal pandangan anda belum tentu benar!
Notice how Bill and Hillary joined hands while Andrew Young spoke.
Absolutely spot on
President Jimmy Carter is a good man of God.
Seems like the only time Don Trump goes to church is when he attends funerals…
You don't know that.
@@theresatoomer5578He is correct.
May President J. Carter RIP. ❤
Trump isn't interested, keeping his head down pretenting to read.
Yes! WTF!!!
He’s bored because the attention isn’t on him
and filling his diapers. then sitting in it. since at least a decade.
Felon tratior trump🤬👺👹👎
@@Joanezimm👍😂👍
Jimmy Carter was a wonderful man! A true gentleman with a huge heart!
President Carter, we will always LOVE YOU! VP Harris, we will aways LOVE you as well!
The only people not smiling are Drump and Melania.
Note, in the freeze frame of this video, everyone in the first three rows is grinning at something said. Donald and Melania are the only ones not smiling…it’s as though they didn’t even understand the language.
That's great, amazing speech and understanding to everyone real news is very beneficial to the states ,how are you doing today 🌺
The trumps look out of place.
Why are they there.
mt appears to be miserable 😕
Beautiful Speech... President Jimmy Carter Will Be Missed.
He was the worst president until Biden showed up lol. The amount of misery he inflicted upon everyone was historic never met a single person who didn't say what a horrible president Carter was during his time in office. Never met a single American who had anything good to say about him. Not many will miss him but his friends and family lol
Donald Trump clearly stands out in the crowd of goodness love and beauty has the poor sad tragedy that he is as a human being he appears to have no ability to receive the love of communion around him he's so uncomfortable in the presence of honor and goodness what a tragic human being in the presence of Jimmy Carter's life
Rip President Carter. What an example you are and what a legacy you leave for children grandchildren and all of us.😢
Nicely said Mr Young. We appreciate you a lot. Blessings!🕯💐💙🙏😇
Great is Thy Faithfulness Amen
Look at trump not paying attention as the speaker is talking about being kind. I wonder how much Trump had to pay Melania to attend the funeral with him?
How do you know he's not paying attention? Chances are you are reading too much into it.
@ Because I know what ADHD looks like he wasn’t paying attention and kindness is not something he would perk his ears up to listen to he could care less about kindness. He’s never been kind a day in his life.
@ You might want to read down this thread and listen to the comments of other people who thought the same thing
@CindyLeeMatte I don't care what the other mindless lemmings are saying. The opinion of the TDS deranged isn't a great thing to go on. You just have a bias against him and are reading into something that isnt there. You'd be criticizing him if he was cackling at every joke told. It doesn't matter what he does you'll attack him because you are obsessed. You are making claims with no information whatsoever. You have no clue whether he was paying attention or not.
@@LukeHartman-ro7hl do your eyes not see?
I guess Trump didn't get the joke that was told about Plains .
President Carter was my 1st president! It's when I became aware of what a president is and what he does! I was mainly excited that his daughter Amy was my age! Sadly, Carter is the last of presidents who truly cared about the well-being of the American people! I'm so glad I was here to experience it. The things we take for granted!
That's great, amazing speech and understanding to everyone real news is very beneficial to the states ,how are you doing today 🌺
My Condolences 💐
❤❤❤
Always glad I voted for Mr. Carter! Brilliant and FINE MAN!!
