I dont believe any person can listen to this great song by a great man, and not shed a tear.
There will never be another grandpa Jones, for that matter there will never be another generation like the men that was grandpa Jones, god have mercy on the United states, I pray
My favorite Christmas story
I love this Song it always makes me Cry but it is a beautiful Song
RIP Grandpa Jones a National Treasure!!!
Yes. Not Christmas without hearing grandpa
I have loved Grandpa Jones since I was a kid, I am 51 years old and listen to this year around and especially at Christmas.
Grandpa was a member of Luton's United Methodist Church just outside of Goodlettsville, TN. My father served as the minister of that church from 1994-1998. We had the privilege of hearing Grandpa perform "The Christmas Guest" at a couple of Christmas Eve communion services. Dad continued to include it in his Christmas Eve services until he retired from the ministry in 2017. Every time I hear this it reminds me of Dad and all of the Christmases from years past.
Grandpa Jones was one of my favorites on Hee Haw every week. Such a kind man and a real Christian. I’m sure God had a special place in Heaven for him.
Makes me cry Great stuff grandma jones
My favorite Grandpa Jones song.
I miss Grandpa Jones!!! Such a sweet loving man!!!
my grandpa would tell us this story.
Only Granpa can tell this story the way it should be told. RIP Grandpa still missed.
If this doesn't touch your heart. You don't have one. Period. Merry Christmas early. Much love
Oh piss off. Who are you to judge, based on someone’s reaction to a d*mn song?
I wish I could write poetry like this... 😭it’s so beautiful...
I remember every Christmas Eve night watching TNN and waiting for Grandpa to sit and open the big book and read this story.
My dad passed away many years ago, and The Christmas Guest was one of his favorite stories
I really love this grandma Jones was an amazing man I loved he haw 🎄👩🏼🦳🎉bless you all🌏💗
Great song
It’s December, my niece has died unexpectedly, leaving her family behind. Maybe Jesus was her early Christmas guest? My heart is breaking for us all, I hope she is happy, we were not ready to lose her so I pray he protects her until we are back with her. Amen.
Everybody's Grandpa.
One of my ALL TIME favorites!!
I fell in love with this song and it one of the best Christmas song to be sung thank you grandpa Jones
I remember hearing this for the first time on "Hee-Haw" so many years ago, and having listened to it, I too shed a few tears. I was trying to find a recording of it, but when I could not, I thought I would go to "Plan B" and directly write to Grandpa Jones, who in turn sent me several 45's. I cannot remember directly if I paid for them (or if I did, how much), or Grandpa simply mailed them. but they were and still are precious to me. How beautiful and even more, how powerful are the words and message of this poem. Here it is in 2020, as I sit here watching this video, I am also seeing and remembering all the country stars pictured here as they tearfully listened in tribute to Grandpa Jones. How ironic it is to see how many of these stars have also passed away leaving their fans with some tears as well for all that they all have contributed to country music over the years. What gifts they have been to all who have listened - and still do - to the songs they recorded. At this Christmas season and all through the year may this message resonate in our hearts and may the beauty of all these country stars, their voices, and their music live on as well. Thanks so much for sharing this video!
Wow that was very sad but terrific listened very carefully with tears flowing down my cheeks. Thank you Bill for playing it.
Never heard that before, but cried at it. Merry Christmas x
So beautiful
Such a wonderful song and sad bless everyone happy Xmas
Grandpa Jones is so sadly missed. Merry Christmas Grandpa and everyone at Country’s Family Reunion.

Luv this

Listening Christmas 2020
I can hear Grandpa saying, "Quit yer crying, ya dang fools." A staple every Christmas.
I haven't heard that in years and years. Made me tear up a little but in a good way. Thanks and Merry Christmas!
We are honored to have been able to capture that performance. He is greatly missed! Merry Christmas to you too!
There is no better Christmas song than this. I don't celebrate Christmas, but this is in my playlist. Brings me to tears everytime.
Beautiful recitation from Grandpa.
Kiddos for Country Family Reunion for still promoting Christmas the way it was meant to be. America has enough of being "Political Correct". We have given up too much for people who always want to change our culture and traditions. "Christmas Forever". And yes, Grandpa is sadly missed. mos60
I listen to Christmas music all year round! I wish others would as well, maybe there would be more love and less war! Are you thinking this is a great song for Red Solvine or is it his voice?
I was moved to find this recitation by a video performed by a trio of tenors called Gentri...where they performed Oh Holy Night...The accompanying video was reminiscent of this theme...thank you for this tribute to Grandpa and the more important message within...Merry Christmas and God Bless!
Love this
I know these used to be some of the toughest people around, it sucks to see the pain in their eyes.
