I got saved two weeks after he did. I, too, lived many years thinking I was a Christian. Praise God for Holy Ghost conviction!. July 31, 1988 is my spiritual birthday.
As a child, I foolishly turned God away, Not knowing the heartbreak a sinner must pay, But God, in His goodness, has let me return, To share with His children this lesson I learned, Chorus Sin will take you farther than you want to go, Slowly, but wholly, taking control, Sin will leave you longer than you want to stay, Sin will cost you far more than you want to pay. So with pleasure and promises, Sin took control, Leaving me dying, with nothing to show, Gone were my loved ones, and my dearest friends, Only a Saviour could love me again
Thank you Lord Jesus for seeing the need of this world, the need for a sinless Saviour. You paid the ultimate sacrifice that day on the cross, you paid the price for my sins.
MARK IS STILL THE TOP BARITONE, WON AGAIN THIS YEAR. THIS IS MY FAVORITE LINEUP OF THE CATHEDRALS- GREAT BASS GEORGE YOUNCE, GREAT LEAD GLENN PAYNE, GREAT TENOR DANNY FUNDERBURK, GREAT BARITONE MARK TRAMMELL THE WORDS TO THIS SONG TOUCH ALL OF US - THANK YOU GOD FOR BEING THERE FOR ALL OF US.
+Barbara Ludena For sure, this is the best lineup of The Cats, with the best tenor and the best baritone of all times in Southern Gospel: Danny Funderburk and Mark Trammell! Mark is a baritone that made a signature sound with his smoothness voice, his deep sonority of pitch and a great power when it is necessary, all attributes that the incredible Elvis Presley showed in his short career. Elvis is a standard for any baritone voice, and I see in Mark some of the quality in voice that Elvis presents in his concerts.
Love it. I remember this statement from this song as a teenager and I am 60! I remind my children & grandchildren always. Thank you for your testimony & the song that impacted me for life so so many years ago!

Chorus
Sin will take you farther than you want to go,
Slowly, but wholly, taking control,
Sin will leave you longer than you want to stay,

Gone were my loved ones, and my dearest friends,
Only a Saviour could love me again
I love this song. And Mark's voice is so beautifully rich and clear.

LYRICS
SIN WILL TAKE YOU FARTHER THAN YOU WANT TO GO
As a child I foolishly turned God away
Not knowing the heartbreak a sinner must face!
But God in His goodness has let me return,
To share with His children this lesson I've learned.
Sin will take you farther than you want to go,
Slowly but wholly taking control.
Sin will leave you longer than you want to stay.
Sin will cost you far more than you want to pay!
So with pleasure and promises sin took control.
Leaving me dying with nothing to show.
Gone were my loved ones and my dearest friends.
Only a Saviour could love me again!
Sin will take you farther than you want to go.
Slowly but wholly taking control.
Sin will leave you lonan you want to stay.,
Sin will cost you far more than you want to pay!
O sin will take you farther than you want to go.
Slowly but wholly taking control.
Sin will leave you longer than you want to stay.
Sin will cost you far more than you want to pay.
O sin will cost you far more than you want to pay
Thank you!
Probably my favorite quartet lineup of alltime....
Sin will take you farther, than you want to go,
Slowly, but wholly, taking control,
Sin will leave you longer, than you want to stay,
Sin will cost you far more, than you want to pay.
Great song.....Great baritone singer.....
What a great performance by Mark, I’ve mostly seen him singing backup, He has a beautiful voice.
absolutely beautiful! One of my favorite songs with such a message.
What pipes!!!
Thats the hardest thing in life to be,,,and that is a good christian,,,
This song has blessed me
Great song, well done, expressed from guys who "personally" know the message, as Mark shared ahead of the performance!
I have GOT to get this song!!! Too much me in it!
very good
Amen

muito bom very god
I was born the same year he was reborn :p
thank god for forgiveness!
@MrSteveh1963 This is so true. Why do God's children play in the field's of sin????

Mark Trammel is a fantastic baritone. But, so is George Amon Webster
Aman! Sin stinks.
Not one of the best............ The best.
