Bill Mack hosted the midnight country music show on WBAP in Dallas. He played this Connie Smith song each night (around 5 am) to close his show. Memories
Man I just started to listen to Marty Stuart 2months ago. I was a fan when I saw him in the band playing with Johnny Cash. I stopped listening to Country/Rockabilly when I no longer recognized the Country I was hearing in the last 20yrs. Thank you so much Marty Stuart and his Superlatives for bringing me back. I'm 66yrs old and Connie Smith is so talented. She sooths my Christian spirit as David use to sing to King Saul as I had read in the old Testament. God bless and God has Blessed you.
Connie Smith & Marty is My favorite singers too. Connie has a Beautiful Soul & Marty. Jesus gave them a Wonderful Voice. I love u both. You both are in my Prayers. This song. Clinging to a. Savior.Hand is my #1 Play.list. ❤❤😊😊 Angela & Son James
Love Connie Smith she one of my favorite singers plus she's married to Marty Stuart they are great together on their t v show on sat night on R FD she is great love love God bless you Connie
Years ago I used to listen to Bill Mack radio on WBAP Fort Worth Dallas and every morning when he signed off this is the song he play Clinging to a Saving Hand Connie Smith love that song
When I would go on the night trips delivering auto parts with my Dad,We would listen to Bill Mack's 'All Night Open Road Show'. That was back in 1969. My lord time has flown. They played this song lots.
😅I agree 100% with Eddie stubs when he said when better songs are sung Connie Smith will be the one singing them. God bless you Connie smith some Connie Smith
One of the most beautiful voices in music history especially country. The only ones that top her in my humble opinion are Patsy Cline and Mahalia Jackson.
I listened to The Midnight Cowboy many a night. He’d play this song at the end of his show. I wonder if he had this song in mind for Connie when it was written.
@@stacygherbil8787 I’m not sure if it was penned for anyone specifically, I’ve heard Polly Steven’s sing it on occasion on his show. If you go to Bills website ( if it’s still active) he has a cd of 10 or so of his songs written by and performed by himself, funny how a man from another era and TEXAS could be such a great story teller ……..
I’m a Texan, too. 😉. I’ll check these things out. He certainly could write a song, couldn’t he? He had a really good voice. Thank you for the information. I appreciate it.
I used to listen to Bill Mack the Midnight Cowboy as I delivered newspapers in the early mornings in the Dallas TX area and really enjoy this song Bill wrote!
Reba: "Connie Smith!" Connie: "Reba McEntire!" What respect those two have for each other. And of course, this was said in a tribute performance of the GOAT, Marty Robbins.
Bill Mack was the man who wrote this song during a dark period in his life. He claimed that the words came to him instantly and credited God for it.
What a voice--one of music's truly underappreciated talents. They don't make singers like Connie Smith anymore.
What a beautiful song by a lady with the prettiest voice in all of country and gospel music! Keep the great songs coming Ms. Connie!
Thank you Ms. Connie, of course in my head I see and hear Ms. Vestal singing with tears streaming! God Bless you ALL!

Oh brother don't you know that mamma had her alarm set for 4:55am. In memory, she was our reverie. Beautiful song
What a voice? It's seems like it is so flawless and smooth. Beautiful.
Connie never holds back. That's why we love her.
Connie Smith is a singer like no other. It is so obvious how much Marty loves her and respects her.
Love to hear her sing. Could listen to her all day
Beautiful!!! 🙌🏼

I CAN HARDLY FOR THAT GREAT DAY
Written by the legendary Fort Worth disc jockey Bill Mack.
Why do I hear Bill Mac introducing this song every time I hear it?
Oneprettyso ng
I know he wasn't a Christian, but I'm sorry NOBODY can do this song like Conway Twitty! She was good, but not like Conway
