Yeah. 00:16:50.37\00:16:51.71 But you know, this impacts young people 00:16:51.74\00:16:54.81 because you're raised in a house 00:16:54.84\00:16:56.44 and everybody doesn't have 00:16:56.48\00:16:57.81 to be good musicians or great singers, 00:16:57.85\00:16:59.48 but the idea that you're doing something together as family... 00:16:59.51\00:17:02.18 Right. 00:17:02.22\00:17:03.55 And then the songs that you do are praising the Lord. 00:17:03.62\00:17:06.09 Now a couple years ago two or three years ago, 00:17:06.12\00:17:09.89 you were with the Brady Trio 00:17:09.92\00:17:11.99 and you did a CD and it's beautiful, 00:17:12.03\00:17:15.00 and I love the arrangement of, 00:17:15.03\00:17:16.87 it says, you may ask me how I know. 00:17:16.90\00:17:19.17 Yeah. My God is real. 00:17:19.20\00:17:21.24 Well, I grew up here and I think the first song 00:17:21.27\00:17:24.81 I ever remember my mom and dad doing is a duet, 00:17:24.84\00:17:28.24 and they didn't travel to a lot of churches, 00:17:28.28\00:17:30.35 but actually when before they were Christians, 00:17:30.38\00:17:34.42 my dad had a radio program with a country band. 00:17:34.45\00:17:37.12 And I think for almost five years 00:17:37.19\00:17:38.89 in West Frankfort area near Southern Illinois 00:17:38.92\00:17:41.39 but they did country music. 00:17:41.42\00:17:43.56 But after he became a Christian he would, 00:17:43.63\00:17:45.69 my mother in 1951, and my father in 1954, 00:17:45.73\00:17:50.83 they didn't really travel around in churches 00:17:50.87\00:17:52.70 or be like the Partons and doing album or anything. 00:17:52.73\00:17:55.30 But, you know, at our own church 00:17:55.34\00:17:56.67 or somebody would say, 00:17:56.71\00:17:58.04 hey, come and sing somewhere, they would, 00:17:58.07\00:17:59.44 but they sang gospel music 00:17:59.47\00:18:01.54 and I found the little clip of them 00:18:01.58\00:18:04.18 that's on old reel to reel and they're doing that song. 00:18:04.21\00:18:07.88 And the title, actual title of it is what? 00:18:07.92\00:18:10.52 His Hand in Mine. His Hand in Mine. 00:18:10.55\00:18:11.89 Yeah. Let's hear it. 00:18:11.92\00:18:13.25 Okay, and we'll do maybe just a verse and chorus of that. 00:18:13.29\00:18:14.62 Oh, yeah. Yeah, yeah, good. 00:18:14.66\00:18:15.99 You may ask me how I know 00:18:27.80\00:18:32.57 My God is real 00:18:32.61\00:18:38.68 You may doubt the things I say 00:18:38.71\00:18:42.42 And doubt the way I feel 00:18:42.45\00:18:49.16 But I know he's real today 00:18:49.19\00:18:54.00 He'll always be 00:18:54.00\00:18:59.77 I can feel his hand in mine 00:18:59.80\00:19:03.67 And that's enough for me 00:19:03.74\00:19:10.38 I will never walk alone 00:19:10.41\00:19:14.98 He holds my hand 00:19:15.02\00:19:20.72 He will guide each step I take 00:19:20.79\00:19:24.59 And if I falter, he will understand 00:19:24.63\00:19:31.20 Till the day he tells me why 00:19:31.23\00:19:35.97 He loves me so 00:19:36.00\00:19:41.64 I can feel his hand in mine 00:19:41.68\00:19:45.48 That's all I need to know 00:19:45.51\00:19:49.62 Okay.
