Randy and is so obvious how much you love your children and how pleased you are by their performance they are top-notch professionals no different than you and Mama your mama did a well blessed job with them be proud enjoy them
Emmitt has that resonator all fired up. Hopefully the Franz' and the Petersen's can do a tour together. Keep it up. You guys knocked this one out of the park.
And add the Lindsey Family to go on tour with the Franz & Petersen families.....& it would be truly amazing! All three are incredible! th-cam.com/video/8bPlRzEWY_E/w-d-xo.html
One mike for voice, one more for instrments tells you all Real people , practiced in thir craft , playing with a pinch of stardust, all to spead their goodwill.
Great band only found them after hearing Emmitt playing with the Petersons . Maybe you should all get together for a big jam and record it for the world to hear.
LYRICS - Wayfaring Stranger (traditional) I am a poor wayfaring stranger While traveling through this world below. This is no sickness, toil, or danger In that bright world to which I go. Chorus #1 I’m going there to see my father, I’m going there no more to roam. I’m only going over Jordan; I’m only going over home. I’ll soon free from every trial; This form will rest beneath the sod. I’ll drop the cross of self-denial, And enter in my home with God. Chorus #2 I’m going there to see my Savior, Who shed for me His precious blood. I’m only going over Jordan; I’m only going over home. (End tag last line of chorus) Mandolin and lead vocals: Audra Franz Guitar and harmony vocals: Caleb Franz Bass and harmony vocals: Ruth Ann Franz Fiddle: Olivia Franz Dobro: Emmett Franz Guitar: Randy Franz Guitar: Zachary Reinke
GREAT VOCALS, THE MUSICIANS ARE REALLY GREAT ENJOY ....LOVE IT LISTEN TO THE WORDS FOLKS,,IT CAN'T HURT & IT MAY BLESS YOU ,IF NOTHING ELSE GREAT MUSIC, GREAT!!
Superb - excellent rendition of one of the greatest gospel(?) songs. Fantastic drive. My legs go twitching with the rhythm. And the singer has an enormous voice. Love the dobro, too. Heard you guys for the first here, but was hooked right away. Keep on going. Peace and Greetings from Germany.

I like the way Mrs. Franz played the acoustic bass guitar. Rest in the arms of Jesus dear lady!
8 million versions and this is by far my favorite.
Those Franz sisters are stunningly beautiful.
Randy and is so obvious how much you love your children and how pleased you are by their performance they are top-notch professionals no different than you and Mama your mama did a well blessed job with them be proud enjoy them
One of my favorite songs. This performance is AMAZING!!!
I love to see a family sing & play together. It warms the heart. There's a lot talent here. Fantastic! 🤗🎶🎵
Beautiful singing and playing
Beautifully haunting! So sad mama Ruth passed away in 2016.
i Love this cover. Wish these guys played in the uk
Pure energy! One of the best renditions of this traditional sogn, one of those I love most. Singer and sldie guitar players are outstanding !
Audra's vocals - captivating... Wow!
Wow well done 🍻
Beautiful!
2 talented families
great music you all perfect
Watching this in 2021 and it saddens me knowing that the mom of the family, that plays acustic bass guitar in this clip, have past away a while ago.
So sad to hear that about their Mom! Awesome family!!
I truly enjoy watching Matt pick I wish there was more to see
I love The Franz Family!!!
Matthew is totally awesome to hear him and his mother in the same performance as quite a blessing to me this is a song that I'll never forget
Amazing intro on the Dobro.
Just wonderful!🙌🏾✨
Emmitt has that resonator all fired up. Hopefully the Franz' and the Petersen's can do a tour together. Keep it up. You guys knocked this one out of the park.
That would be great Shannon. I'm there!
This was my Mama Blevins favorite song. She died in 1975 at age 79
They kinda already do considering Emmett and Randy are involved with the Petersen band.
And add the Lindsey Family to go on tour with the Franz & Petersen families.....& it would be truly amazing! All three are incredible! th-cam.com/video/8bPlRzEWY_E/w-d-xo.html
