It sure is cool watching Hank Jr sing this song with Randy Travis, Chet Atkins, and Ricky Skaggs. His dad would have been proud of him for singing this song. Hopefully all of us will see the light of God's Word through everything we face in our lives.
It was this song that convinced me I needed give up drinking and give my life to God Its been over twenty years and Ive been clean and sober ever since by Gods grace Thank you Hank for all your beautiful music Rest in peace
so good seeing Hank Williams Jr. praising the Lord with a song his daddy wrote, and with this great bunch of famous and beautiful people. Praise The Lord, I saw the Light!:)
Franklin P. Uroda My neighbors, June and Raymon, went on vacation to Nashville. This happened many moons ago, mind ya. She and her husband went to a supper club. They had dinner and a show. In the middle of it, a guy came out and said that the dishwasher wanted to sing a little tune for everyone. Out came a young feller, he sang his song. June said that he was really good. She said that his name was Randy Travis. 😳
I am very bless when Hank Willams Jr singing his father song that he wrote *I SAW THE LIGHT* My family and my girlfriend Angela also love this gospel song so much . Praise the Lord I Saw The Light . *THANK YOU LORD 🙏*
I just saw a video where Roy Acuff (the guy singing the 2nd verse) did this same song with Hank Sr, June Carter Cash and several others. Now he's singing this song many years later with Hank Jr. So many of the good are gone now. I miss them.
I love this song. .beings back memories of when I was 3 and 4 years of age. .. jumping up and down in the pues with my grandma by my side...now at 55 still takes me back there. God bless you for posting this.
This comment makes me wanna water up bc I'm right there with you.... Well, other than the 55 part, I'm going on 31 myself, but still same boat as far as the rest goes brother
Gerald, we must be the same age! For me too! Reminds of my Daddy! Yep, I was about 3 or 4 years old, back in 1964/65! Hope this post finds you doing well even though I don’t know you! 🎶Praise the Lord, I saw the light!🎶
over the years Ive always come back to this song this video. Whenever I’m feeling down thinking about my family and friends I have lost it always makes me feel better.
There is nothing quite like hearing Jr sing one of his dads songs or hearing Hank III sing one of his grandpas songs which is also here on youtube where he is at the opry!!! To a true country fan it almost makes your eyes water.
I have loved Bocephus since I was 12yrs.old or maybe 13, and will till the end of time,I've never seen this one and wowed again,check the cast of legends around the man,, Chet Atkins, Randy Travis, Ricky skaggs, Bocephus if you ever read these I want you to know I think you're the most real thing I've ever seen! From that mountain to sobriety it's a blessing for me to have you fill my heart,my mind and my ears with happiness, Your truest fan,Birdleg!!!
Now that is the true Hank Williams Jr and Friends. He should remake another Hank Williams Jr a d Friends album singing a hymn with a different surviving legend and another modern artist from after him.
I know exactly where it came from. I have an old documentary I got from my great grandma, and I think it was recorded in 1982, and released in 1989, and all those country music legends that sang talked about hank and sang his songs. then, at the end, they all sang I saw the light, right then and their. its a really good film, but that's were it came from
It's on a DVD called In The Hank Williams Tradition here it is www.amazon.com/Hank-Williams-Tradition/dp/B0000640T6/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1524998968&sr=8-2&keywords=in+the+hank+williams+tradition
"I am Jesus, whom you are persecuting. Now get up and go into the city and you will be told what you must do." Paul was changed and spent the rest of his life talking about Jesus, The Light.
A lot of people in this country need to see the light , we all need to try to be A little more understanding , A little more kind to each other , do a little more discussing and a lot less arguing . We're all here because God put us here . Bocephus said it best " Can't we all just get a longneck "
**PRAY THE LORD I SAW THE LIGHT** I love this song and it really bless my heart and soul forever and always . This Is the beautiful song that writing by Hank Willams , Sr. Jesus is the light that shine above in haven and we see the light that is shining on us . *JESUS IS THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD*.✝🙏🙏 *AMEN*
Andrew Pernia. It's "PRAISE" the Lord, not pray. Seeing all your written miscues, one can easily tell English is your second language so in the future maybe you should proofread your posts before you hit send...
I did the other day... No shame for it either...I was addicted to heroin and meth for 11 years and have been clean going on 6 years this October and this song has always resonated with me
@@davidrussell9290 You're offering the common "go away if you don't like it here" comment. How about we FIX the problems in this country so that no one has to be chased away? That would mean our society would "see the light" in a whole new way.

Agreed
Northern Lad don't forget. Minnie Pearl.
Northern Lad sorry, Chet Atkins too.
Chet, Minnie Pearl, pretty sure Johnny Cash, Rosanne Cash, and June Carter are there too.
Agreed
Every time I see Randy Travis in these early videos, I pray that he "makes it."
Franklin P. Uroda if he comes back and recover maybe he and hank be singing this song again
Franklin P. Uroda I do too...
Did you see the CMA 50th anniversary opening? I cried when he got through the final chorus.
I know

Hank Jr doing his daddy's song with Roy Acuff is beautiful. God I love Randy Travis.
Dang... that's an all star cast if there ever was one....
Randy's voice always stands out...legend
TRUE!
I was blessed to see him sing this song in concert in the 80s!
Junior carried on the messages of his father, that is, heritage and pride.
I just saw a video where Roy Acuff (the guy singing the 2nd verse) did this same song with Hank Sr, June Carter Cash and several others. Now he's singing this song many years later with Hank Jr. So many of the good are gone now. I miss them.
Mary Phillips He also sang it at Hank sr's funeral.
How are you doing Mary
Hi
I just watched the old one too!
@@peggywedin3699 hope you are safe from the virus?

I'm a huge fan of HANK WILLIAMS SR And HANK WILLIAMS JR
A piece of country music history. Hank Williams Sr. R.I.P!!
Got to love the smile on his face while he sings. Im sure Hank sr had a smile on too.
It's amazing how Jr. can sound so much like his daddy.
Praise God! Seeing His gifts giving praise to our Father! Thank you ♥️🙏🏼🌹

There is nothing quite like hearing Jr sing one of his dads songs or hearing Hank III sing one of his grandpas songs which is also here on youtube where he is at the opry!!! To a true country fan it almost makes your eyes water.

Would have to guess Nashville network when it existed

@@kfranks67 um why does it matter
@@casemercer6729because words have meaning. And one of the greatest songwriters in history chose his words carefully and that should be respected.
my family plays gospel music, and I performed a couple times with them as well, this is my absolute favorite gospel song
Can you teach me how to play some of hank Williams jr songs
I just want to cry listening to this song.
Same!
I did the other day... No shame for it either...I was addicted to heroin and meth for 11 years and have been clean going on 6 years this October and this song has always resonated with me
@@nicholasryan7766 You are a brave man, I congratulate you and wish you only God's blessings from here on out
@@marccohen4571 thanks bud, I appreciate that
I am so sorry to hear about Craig. I am so glad he has hope in Jesus The Light! Prayers for the Bailey Fsmily.
How are you doing Patricia
One of my all time favorite gospel tunes.
HALLELUJAH!! NEW FAVORITE!
PEACE BE WITH YOU ALL, PRAISE THE LORD I SAW THE LIGHT.
MAY GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR BELOVED ONES...PRAISE THE LORD AND THY GLORIOUS NAME!
I sure wish Emmylou had a solo line in this. Her voice is so angelic.
Good song bring back memories
How are you doing Tina
Love this song and the original song by his father even though I'm not a religious person
your daddy would be proud of you Jr. Also nice job Randy always a pleasure to hear you sing
Damn right
Such a beautiful song with Roy Acuff Minnie Pearl and other great stars
Praise Jesus!
Don Blake
Praise the Lord! He Lives, He Loves, He Reigns...and, of course, HE WILL COME BACK ❤👐
omg i love this so much merci hank
Thank you guys for singing this song one of the best
Hi
I love this!! It's so happy and bouncy!!! A stark contrast to the dreariness that covers this world now...
+Melanie Buchmiller ask the minorities if they was happy during this time... just saying.
+Dick VanDyke Ask us if we're happy now. Ask the working class if it's happy now, white/male/cis/abled included.
"if they WAS happy".
If you're not happy here feel free to go elsewhere in your pursuit of happiness.
it came from Hank William’s mouth into a microphone

A FAMILY TRADITION FAMILY.
I love this rendition of the song
Of course Mister Guitar is pickin right along! Chet Atkins Forever!
BRILLIANT.
when I was first learning to play guitar...this is the first song I ever learned how to play. Great song.
Oh, it is him, now that he's singing it's clear.
God bless colonel sanders at the intro, the guy could cook chicken and play for GOD, a true American, works hard and prays hard!!!
You can see hank jr,Jr, dad with Roy on Kate Smith hour 1952 singing this same song along with june carter cash that's just awesome!
This is priceless
Saw Hank sr. and Roy Acuff singing this together in 1952 now in 2009 he’s singing it with his son Hank jr 😊
This should be treasured...
incredible, jesus is the light of the world,where else could i go but to him...
Still now from Nepal 2023.I like to listen country christian song.😊
