I learned this song when I sang in the choir at the Base Chapel in South Dakota. My marriage was breaking up and I didn't see how I would go on. Then I learned this song.
I wrote Because He Lives in 1970. The baby I held that December was Ryan Dobson! God kept His promise to me that my son would have a good life! And I like this version by Jimmy Fortune. He praises God as he sings.
Why don't churches still sing songs like this in the worship services, instead of that repetitious stuff that is passed off these days as "praise music"?? If they did, you could pretty much guarantee that the church rafters would be lifted and shaken, and people loudly sing the Lord's praises once again.
Because He lives is the reason I live. My wonderful husband passed away 4 yrs ago and I'm more ready than ever to see my sweet Jesus. Heaven calls out my name. Sweet Jesus Come quickly.
OsakaRose I'm so sorry that you're having to go through this insane world without your husband. I keep thinking it will get easier, but it doesn't. Even at family gathering with my wonderful kids and grandkids, I'm still so lonely. I feel like the best part of me died. I long to go home. May God give you peace and comfort.
What does one say to a song that is speaking the truth? Just because some people don't believe in the Lord Jesus, doesn't mean He isn't real. I know He is.
I knew he lives anyway in my life he lives and anyone that does not believe he lives has a big wake up because where do they think they will go when they die
YES JESUS IS REAL IF IT WASNT SO JUST READ YOUR BIBLE IT IS THE TRUTH THE WAY AND THE LIFE WE ALL SHOULD BE FOLLOWING HIS TRUTH HE WANTS US TO DO IN OUR LIVES. ❤❤
You know people wait and say I'll give my life to Jesus tomorrow and sometimes tomorrow is too late. I sure don't want to ever do anything to lose my heavenly home.
Praise god because he lives we all can face tomorrow thank you sweet sweet jesus,think about it people and pray pray pray,our country is in a mess but with president trump and the grace of god we all can face tomorrow may god bless the president and the usa,
Ok i’ll give your god all the glory for the two million plus children that starve to death every year around the world. Religion because thinking is hard.
Jimmy Fortune is without a doubt a national treasure. His contributions and humble addition to the Statler Brothers will forever cement him into American music lore. His time after their retirement, has been spent sharing his talents and love of the Lord to all of us. And this song to top it off...Sonya Isaacs is the greatest singer on the planet
TH-cam is like a time machine, one minute you are watching a great singer, young, dark hair, full of energy and then the very next click you are watching an elderly man, white hair, older looking a little age in the voice but still sounding wonderful. You forget sometimes the age of people are as you get lost in watching how they used to be and how you remember them. Great to see and hear Jimmy's still singing.
One of my all time favorites hymns.... Lord, thank YOU for ALL you have Blessed me with and thank YOU for loving me... YOU are my everything Lord... Amen 🙏🏻❤️
Love his voice ❤️ had the privilege of seeing him and Dailey and Vincent in Jackson County TN. Beautiful place and this man made it even more beautiful with his voice belting threw those hills and mountains.
Gotta go to my garage to feed a stray and turn on the lights so she can go around the garage. She got trapped when a fellow was trapping possums and raccoons under my deck on the parking pad. She is so pretty but not spayef so she isnt going back out soon. Too cold right now.
Wow. His hair quickly turned white. Where do the days go? Boy! Seems like everyone's growing old these days that fast. Beautiful song by the way. Praise the LORD our God.
Thank you father for this blessed music. Father please shower you precious love to this blessed Gaither Vocal Band We love all of them in this Band. They brings tears to my eyes. Than you Lord for love and peace during this ugly times. Thank you for there heavenly music.Love D and Pat thee
I love him. My grandmother and I sang the Statler Brothers non stop. I was the 12 year old kid dying to get tickets to see them in concert! They’ll always have a special place in my heart !

Two of the most special and important people in my life right there on that stage, Jimmy Fortune and Ryan Joseph. Absolutely beautifully sung Not that I would expect anything else.

He didn’t sing my favorite verse. “ How sweet to hold a newborn baby and feel the pride and joy he brings.
Good day my dear brothers and sisters, give your life to Jesus now, if you have not done so, before it becomes too late for you thanks
You know people wait and say I'll give my life to Jesus tomorrow and sometimes tomorrow is too late. I sure don't want to ever do anything to lose my heavenly home.

As a person grows older, their voice usually loses something. Not so with Mr. Fortune. It is just getting better and better.
Love this man and his voice!
