Christmas,
00:00:01.36\00:00:02.70
a time when the
world pauses for a moment
00:00:02.73\00:00:04.07
and whether or not
they believe in Jesus,
00:00:04.10\00:00:05.93
the birth of our
Savior's on everyone's mind.
00:00:05.97\00:00:08.84

goodwill toward men.
00:00:10.87\00:00:13.54

00:00:16.71\00:00:19.81

00:00:19.85\00:00:21.78
Angels we have heard
00:00:37.37\00:00:40.14
On high Sweetly
singing o'er the plains
00:00:40.17\00:00:45.34
And the mountains in reply
00:00:45.37\00:00:49.34
Echoing their joyous strains
00:00:49.38\00:00:53.11

00:01:56.75\00:02:02.02
And all the
people said amen. Amen.
00:02:14.73\00:02:17.87
Wow. Praise the Lord.
00:02:17.90\00:02:19.23
Well, hello, and welcome to...
00:02:19.27\00:02:21.04
You can see we're doing
our little Christmas program.
00:02:21.07\00:02:23.27
What a beautiful set behind us.
00:02:23.30\00:02:24.77
I know, isn't it beautiful?
00:02:24.81\00:02:26.14
Is this your
house we're in, Tim?
00:02:26.17\00:02:27.51
Yes, this is. It's
beautiful, lovely, okay.
00:02:27.54\00:02:28.88
Just for today.
Lovely, just for today.
00:02:28.91\00:02:31.18
And that was beautiful.
00:02:31.21\00:02:32.55
You see the
snow out the windows,
00:02:32.58\00:02:33.95
and all of that.
00:02:33.98\00:02:35.32
Boy, this will
put you in the mood
00:02:35.35\00:02:36.69
for a Christmas, doesn't it?
00:02:36.72\00:02:38.05
It does. It does. Absolutely.
00:02:38.09\00:02:40.12
If snow is your thing.
00:02:40.16\00:02:41.92
Yeah, if snow is your thing.
00:02:41.96\00:02:43.32
That's true.
00:02:43.36\00:02:44.69
Yeah, we've been in the
Bahamas most of the time
00:02:44.73\00:02:46.39
or somewhere
like that, you know...
00:02:46.43\00:02:47.96
I think next year we're gonna be
00:02:48.00\00:02:49.33
over in Trinidad and Tobago.
00:02:49.36\00:02:50.70
Trinidad and Tobago. Yeah.
00:02:50.73\00:02:52.23
And so I don't know that
00:02:52.27\00:02:53.60
this would go
with Trinidad, so...
00:02:53.64\00:02:54.97
Yeah, no, no that
wouldn't go over there.
00:02:55.00\00:02:56.34
If you're
watching from Trinidad...
00:02:56.37\00:02:57.71
But in Southern
Illinois, we could get this
00:02:57.74\00:02:59.07
or we may not get it but anyway,
00:02:59.11\00:03:00.44
the good part is we
can look out the windows
00:03:00.48\00:03:02.28
and just enjoy it that way.
00:03:02.31\00:03:04.55
We got a
fireplace behind us here.
00:03:04.58\00:03:06.78
We're glad that
you're joining us today.
00:03:06.82\00:03:08.55
And so this is something
we don't make Christmas
00:03:08.58\00:03:11.25
a big deal would to get
to the commercial side of it.
00:03:11.29\00:03:14.06
But every year we acknowledge
00:03:14.09\00:03:15.49
what a
wonderful time of the year
00:03:15.52\00:03:18.03
to be able to talk
and to sing about Jesus.
00:03:18.06\00:03:20.60
And I always say it's
about the only time of the year
00:03:20.63\00:03:22.56
you can go into
Walmart or Target,
00:03:22.60\00:03:24.43
all these kind of
stores and hear songs.
00:03:24.47\00:03:26.57
It's actually somebody
singing about Jesus, you know...
00:03:26.60\00:03:28.77
Yes. And that's amazing to me.
00:03:28.80\00:03:31.14
So, yes, we understand
please don't write in and say,
00:03:31.17\00:03:34.18
you know, Christ
wasn't born on December 25.
00:03:34.21\00:03:36.41
We know that for sure.
00:03:36.44\00:03:37.95
So we're not here
telling you that today,
00:03:37.98\00:03:40.05
but Jesus is the
reason for this season.
00:03:40.08\00:03:42.05
That's right.
00:03:42.08\00:03:43.42
And so we wanna take
every opportunity that we can,
00:03:43.45\00:03:45.75
advantage of every opportunity
to tell the world about
00:03:45.79\00:03:48.82
the Lord Jesus
Christ and His soon coming.
00:03:48.86\00:03:51.59
And so we're so thankful.
00:03:51.63\00:03:53.43
And Christmas, we
talked about His birth so much.
00:03:53.46\00:03:55.66
That's right.
00:03:55.70\00:03:57.03
Birth, His
resurrection, you know...
00:03:57.07\00:03:58.67
And what a wonderful
gift He is to the world.
00:03:58.70\00:04:00.97
Gift of salvation for sure.
00:04:01.00\00:04:02.84
So today it's good
to have Tim Parton.
00:04:02.87\00:04:05.17
You to be here
with this, in fact,
00:04:05.21\00:04:07.04
he and Yvonne is
the program today,
00:04:07.08\00:04:09.04
I'm just kind of jumping
in with you all a little bit.
00:04:09.08\00:04:10.88
No.
00:04:10.91\00:04:12.25
I know how much you love music.
00:04:12.28\00:04:13.62
I'm sure music was a
part of your Christmases?
00:04:13.65\00:04:15.58
Well, it was. You singing?
00:04:15.62\00:04:16.95
Yeah, yeah.
Absolutely. Dad played guitar?
00:04:16.99\00:04:18.49
Yeah, my dad played
guitar, my mom played the piano,
00:04:18.52\00:04:21.49
my older brother Tommy,
00:04:21.52\00:04:22.86
when we got a little
older he played the piano,
00:04:22.89\00:04:24.36
my brother Ronnie the bass,
00:04:24.39\00:04:25.86
and Kenny, me
play a little guitar.
00:04:25.89\00:04:27.93
And we didn't play
like the Tim Parton,
00:04:27.96\00:04:29.66
like the Parton family did.
00:04:29.70\00:04:31.23
But we had a good time
00:04:31.27\00:04:33.00
and enjoyed the
Christmas season.
00:04:33.03\00:04:35.70
Of course, the weather,
we didn't always have snow,
00:04:35.74\00:04:37.77
but it's still cold out,
and it's a good time to get in,
00:04:37.81\00:04:40.41
and gather around,
00:04:40.44\00:04:41.78
and spend time
together as family.
00:04:41.81\00:04:43.45
So today, thank
you for joining us.
00:04:43.48\00:04:45.55
We wanna spend time
with you, wherever you are,
00:04:45.58\00:04:47.88
whether it's really
cold or whether it's warm.
00:04:47.92\00:04:50.59
There's sunshine
in our souls today.
00:04:50.62\00:04:52.89
And that's the way it should be,
00:04:52.92\00:04:54.26
but we're gonna do
a little bit of music
00:04:54.29\00:04:55.62
that you will
often hear this season.
00:04:55.66\00:04:58.46
And sing along with us
all the songs that you know.
00:04:58.49\00:05:01.00
Joy to the
world, The Lord has come
00:05:07.40\00:05:11.94
Let earth receive her King
00:05:11.97\00:05:16.54
Let every heart Prepare Him room
00:05:16.58\00:05:21.65
And heaven and nature sing
00:05:21.68\00:05:23.95
And heaven and nature sing
00:05:23.99\00:05:26.35
And heaven, And
heaven, nature sing
00:05:26.39\00:05:30.89
Joy to the world,
The Savior reigns!
00:05:34.90\00:05:39.37
Let men their songs employ
00:05:39.40\00:05:44.07
While fields and
floods, Rocks, hills and plains
00:05:44.11\00:05:48.98
Repeat the sounding joy

With truth and grace
00:06:21.28\00:06:25.75
And makes the nations prove
00:06:25.78\00:06:30.35
The glories of His righteousness
00:06:30.39\00:06:35.36
And wonders of His

00:07:37.42\00:07:41.79

00:07:57.37\00:08:01.74
Late in time behold him come
00:08:01.78\00:08:06.01

All right. Amen.
00:09:19.65\00:09:21.32
It's beautiful.
Amen. Praise the Lord.
00:09:21.36\00:09:23.83
Yvonne, can you
imagine what it would be like
00:09:23.86\00:09:25.66
to have all that
music going underneath you?
00:09:25.69\00:09:28.16
And we have no conception,
00:09:28.20\00:09:30.70
no idea how you can play fields,
00:09:30.73\00:09:34.24
now a lot of
people when they chord
00:09:34.27\00:09:35.60
they just chord as they sing.
00:09:35.64\00:09:37.57
He does all the fields
and everything and sings
00:09:37.61\00:09:40.04
and then does
some new arrangements.
00:09:40.08\00:09:41.64
I heard some chords
there, I hadn't heard before.
00:09:41.68\00:09:44.31
When you said,
"We have no idea."
00:09:44.35\00:09:46.45
You literally mean all
three of us have no idea
00:09:46.48\00:09:48.82
'cause I truly don't know.
00:09:48.85\00:09:50.35
But it came out
beautiful though.
00:09:50.39\00:09:51.72
I'm as surprised as
you are when it happens.
00:09:51.75\00:09:53.96
You know, that's such a gift.
00:09:53.99\00:09:55.32
I do that on the guitar
and it's a wreck though,
00:09:55.36\00:09:57.39
like this is like a train wreck.
00:09:57.43\00:09:59.09
I don't know how he does
that but absolutely beautiful.
00:09:59.13\00:10:02.66
It's great time of
year, let's talk a little bit
00:10:02.70\00:10:04.63
about the season growing up.
00:10:04.67\00:10:06.27
We all have our
memories of our families.
00:10:06.30\00:10:08.57
And, Yvonne, why
don't we start with you,
00:10:08.60\00:10:09.94
tell us a little
bit about Christmas
00:10:09.97\00:10:11.77
around your home?
00:10:11.81\00:10:13.14
Yes.
00:10:13.17\00:10:14.51
Well, this time of the
year was always special
00:10:14.54\00:10:16.54
because at church,
00:10:16.58\00:10:18.98
my grandmother was the conductor
00:10:19.01\00:10:22.82
of the New Believer's choir
00:10:22.85\00:10:24.49
and she would do the
Messiah every single year.
00:10:24.52\00:10:28.22
And she would...
00:10:28.26\00:10:29.59
She would call me like
later as after I grew up,
00:10:29.62\00:10:32.09
she would call me like,
asked me a year in advance,
00:10:32.13\00:10:35.30
so you can't say
no because, you know,
00:10:35.33\00:10:37.43
you're not
booked at that time...
00:10:37.47\00:10:38.80
You don't say no to
your grandmother anyway.
00:10:38.83\00:10:40.17
I know, well, that's true, too.
00:10:40.20\00:10:41.54
But I mean, I wasn't
booked and so, you know,
00:10:41.57\00:10:43.81
she would always get me.
00:10:43.84\00:10:45.21
But I would love the music like,
00:10:45.24\00:10:48.18
even as Tim was just singing
00:10:48.21\00:10:50.25
Hark! The herald angels sing,
there's just something so...
00:10:50.28\00:10:55.98
You can just feel
the presence of God
00:10:56.02\00:10:58.65
in this music because
it's proclaiming the advent
00:10:58.69\00:11:04.23
of the Savior of the world.
00:11:04.26\00:11:06.53
And so my parents
00:11:06.56\00:11:08.83
and my little sister and I mean,
00:11:08.86\00:11:10.80
it was just a very
special time for us
00:11:10.83\00:11:13.44
and my mother would take us out.
00:11:13.47\00:11:16.60
My dad will be
working somewhere,
00:11:16.64\00:11:18.04
my mother and my aunt Carmel
00:11:18.07\00:11:19.74
would take us to
get a Christmas tree.
00:11:19.77\00:11:22.01
And we would have a
tree and it was just,
00:11:22.04\00:11:25.68
it was just really special.
00:11:25.71\00:11:27.05
And they would kind of wait till
00:11:27.08\00:11:28.42
the last minute to get one.
00:11:28.45\00:11:29.78
And so we had that fun.
00:11:29.82\00:11:31.39
They were just, it was
just a very fun time of the year
00:11:31.42\00:11:35.69
and very
special, and it's a time
00:11:35.72\00:11:38.46
for family to get together.
00:11:38.49\00:11:40.73
But I think that
there are a lot of people
00:11:40.76\00:11:42.96
who don't have
anyone during the season
00:11:43.00\00:11:45.87
and that can be very lonely.
00:11:45.90\00:11:48.00
And so to you, we say
that you're not alone.
00:11:48.04\00:11:51.31
You have your 3ABN
family can tune in anytime
00:11:51.34\00:11:54.84
and we're right here.
00:11:54.88\00:11:56.54
And also you have Jesus
00:11:56.58\00:11:58.58
who will never
leave you nor forsake you.
00:11:58.61\00:12:01.32
So what a
beautiful, beautiful gift
00:12:01.35\00:12:04.19
that He is to the
world and He continues to be.
00:12:04.22\00:12:08.19
Amen. All right,
thank you so much.
00:12:08.22\00:12:11.19
Well, Mr. Tim, what about you?
00:12:11.23\00:12:12.89
I know you came
from a musical family.
00:12:12.93\00:12:14.76
Yeah. Yeah.
00:12:14.80\00:12:17.13
I don't remember really much
00:12:17.17\00:12:19.30
as far as the
music part of Christmas.
00:12:19.33\00:12:22.00
My mother and I've
shared this story so many times.
00:12:22.04\00:12:26.84
But my mom was a seamstress.
00:12:26.88\00:12:30.38
And so that was...
00:12:30.41\00:12:33.52
She sewed so many of our...
00:12:33.55\00:12:36.85
She would be making
clothes through the year.
00:12:36.89\00:12:39.89
And then she would
have a big box of clothes.
00:12:39.92\00:12:42.52
I remember every
year at Christmas,
00:12:42.56\00:12:46.03
there'd be a big box by the tree
00:12:46.06\00:12:47.43
and that was our clothes
for the year that she had made.
00:12:47.46\00:12:50.37
And I also remember that
she had a little tag that said,
00:12:50.40\00:12:54.54
made with love by mom.
00:12:54.57\00:12:56.71
She would put in my shirt,
00:12:56.74\00:12:59.17
so we know that
was really special
00:12:59.21\00:13:01.54
for like, you know,
through third or fourth grade.
00:13:01.58\00:13:05.48
But then whenever
it became less popular
00:13:05.51\00:13:09.08
to be wearing your
those homemade clothes,
00:13:09.12\00:13:13.25
which they were nice
but anyway the other kids
00:13:13.29\00:13:16.52
were wearing cool jeans
and so I remember that year
00:13:16.56\00:13:20.33
whenever I asked
mom for those Levi's
00:13:20.36\00:13:23.80
and just the
emptiness that I felt
00:13:23.83\00:13:26.53
when I came around the
corner and saw there was no box,
00:13:26.57\00:13:28.77
but just a little package there.
00:13:28.80\00:13:30.41
Not that it was the
size of the package,
00:13:30.44\00:13:32.14
but it was just
the fact that I knew...
00:13:32.17\00:13:36.14
I kind of messed
up on that situation
00:13:36.18\00:13:38.88
'cause there she
put a lot of love
00:13:38.91\00:13:41.48
into those clothes
00:13:41.52\00:13:42.85
but, you know, my
mom had a wonderful way
00:13:42.88\00:13:46.25
of making the atmosphere.
00:13:46.29\00:13:47.92
She was a great hostess.
00:13:47.96\00:13:49.42
She truly had the
gift of hospitality.
00:13:49.46\00:13:52.06
And so in the things
00:13:52.09\00:13:57.83
that she would do...
00:13:57.87\00:13:59.73
Now I look back on it
and I realized I don't,
00:13:59.77\00:14:02.90
I don't have that.
00:14:02.94\00:14:04.27
For my two sons
who are older now
00:14:04.31\00:14:06.57
even when they were
younger I struggled with
00:14:06.61\00:14:09.61
trying to make Christmas
just as the atmosphere of it
00:14:09.64\00:14:14.15
in our home but
when we had Christ
00:14:14.18\00:14:16.35
was truly the
center and the focus of it,
00:14:16.38\00:14:18.55
but just a little touches.
00:14:18.59\00:14:20.92
And now as, my goodness,
00:14:20.96\00:14:23.02
working here this
year has been so busy.
00:14:23.06\00:14:26.83
I mean, it just seems like
it was just a couple months
00:14:26.86\00:14:29.96
and we were
doing this, you know,
00:14:30.00\00:14:32.70
gathered around the piano
and talking about Christmas.
00:14:32.73\00:14:37.51
But I have really had to
focus in on Christmas this year
00:14:37.54\00:14:42.04
being about the
story that never grows old
00:14:42.08\00:14:47.68
because without
Christ I truly have nothing,
00:14:47.72\00:14:51.05
even my gifts.
00:14:51.09\00:14:52.42
I don't know how to play
the piano without Christ.
00:14:52.45\00:14:54.92
And I know people,
people who don't understand that
00:14:54.96\00:14:58.33
you don't get it
but I practice a lot,
00:14:58.36\00:15:01.80
you know, but I...
00:15:01.83\00:15:03.63
It's not just the playing,
anybody can sit down and play.
00:15:03.67\00:15:08.00
I want the Spirit of
the Lord to flow through me
00:15:08.04\00:15:11.07
when I play.
00:15:11.11\00:15:12.44
And so I just,
00:15:12.47\00:15:16.24
so I truly pray
that this Christmas...
00:15:16.28\00:15:21.28
I pray for you if you are having
00:15:21.32\00:15:22.72
the same kind of hard
time to get in the mood.
00:15:22.75\00:15:28.06
Remember, the story
that never grows old
00:15:28.09\00:15:32.39
is the story of
Christ coming to earth.
00:15:32.43\00:15:36.83
Putting on flesh,
becoming like you and me
00:15:36.87\00:15:39.87
to bring the
greatest story ever told.
00:15:39.90\00:15:44.87
Year after year as we celebrate
00:15:44.91\00:15:49.81
The season
Sometimes I lose the joy
00:15:49.84\00:15:55.55
Or I forget the reason why
00:15:55.58\00:16:01.52
But holding the foundation
00:16:01.56\00:16:05.86
Of our earthly celebration
00:16:05.89\00:16:10.23
Is the story of a King
00:16:10.27\00:16:14.37
Who came to die
00:16:14.40\00:16:16.67
It still warms my heart
00:16:20.18\00:16:24.28
To know that Christ
00:16:24.31\00:16:26.65
Would leave His glory
00:16:26.68\00:16:29.65
To be called the greatest story
00:16:29.68\00:16:34.66
Ever told
00:16:34.69\00:16:39.29
And the angels
still sing of the joy
00:16:39.33\00:16:46.30
Salvation Brings is a story
00:16:46.33\00:16:52.67
That never grows old
00:16:52.71\00:16:59.01
When I look back
00:17:03.35\00:17:06.19
On my memories of Christmas
00:17:06.22\00:17:11.33
So many past traditions
00:17:11.36\00:17:15.50
That I use to know have gone
00:17:15.53\00:17:21.44
But the story of a Savior
00:17:21.47\00:17:25.44
Is as real today as ever
00:17:25.47\00:17:29.34
And throughout eternity
00:17:29.38\00:17:33.11
It shall live on
00:17:33.15\00:17:39.05
It still warms my heart
00:17:39.09\00:17:42.96
To know that Christ
would leave His glory
00:17:42.99\00:17:47.96
To be called the greatest story
00:17:48.00\00:17:52.40
Ever told
00:17:52.43\00:17:56.27
And the angels
still sing of the joy
00:17:56.30\00:18:03.11
Salvation brings it's the story
00:18:03.14\00:18:08.38
That never grows old
00:18:08.42\00:18:14.22
And the angels
00:18:14.26\00:18:17.86
Still sing of the joy
00:18:17.89\00:18:22.46
Salvation brings
00:18:22.50\00:18:28.54
It's a story
00:18:28.57\00:18:33.51
That never grows old
00:18:33.54\00:18:41.48
True is. Beautiful.
00:18:50.79\00:18:52.19
Amen. Beautiful, beautiful.
00:18:52.23\00:18:54.56
Who wrote that
song? Do you know?
00:18:54.60\00:18:56.03
I don't know who wrote that...
00:18:56.06\00:18:57.57
Really seem like
something Tim might or...
00:18:57.60\00:18:59.13
Yeah.
00:18:59.17\00:19:00.50
Tim and Aaron Wilburn
could have written that.
00:19:00.54\00:19:01.87
Right. It's a beautiful song.
00:19:01.90\00:19:03.24
We would have written it
if we thought of it but...
00:19:03.27\00:19:04.61
You have another one for us?
00:19:04.64\00:19:06.04
Yeah, you know,
another thought that
00:19:06.07\00:19:07.88
I had been thinking of is,
00:19:07.91\00:19:11.08
I'm so thrilled again
is that meant that song
00:19:11.11\00:19:13.55
talked about that
Christ came to earth.
00:19:13.58\00:19:16.79
And I can't imagine
what it would be like
00:19:16.82\00:19:20.69
to not have a
Savior, who, you know,
00:19:24.46\00:19:27.30
the Bible talks about
that He is moved without
00:19:27.33\00:19:31.47
what moves us, you
know, we have a High Priest,
00:19:31.50\00:19:34.97
that can be...
00:19:35.00\00:19:37.47
He understands us.
00:19:37.51\00:19:39.57
And that means a
lot to me to know that
00:19:39.61\00:19:43.28
I'm not just
serving a stone statue.
00:19:43.31\00:19:49.05
But when Christ was born,
it is as if hope became real.
00:19:49.08\00:19:56.16
Hope, it actually took on flesh
00:19:56.19\00:19:58.96
and this is a great little
song that says Hope Has Hands
00:19:58.99\00:20:03.26
and listen to
all the different...
00:20:03.30\00:20:07.04
Just the words are great that...
00:20:07.07\00:20:09.14
I do know, Phil
Cross wrote this song.
00:20:09.17\00:20:10.97
And this is a great song.
00:20:11.01\00:20:14.44
In search of a
child They travel so far
00:20:14.48\00:20:20.48
Led by a star to a place of joy
00:20:20.52\00:20:26.45
Now the wise men
tell A beautiful story
00:20:26.49\00:20:33.19
Describing the
glory Of a baby boy
00:20:33.23\00:20:40.70
This is what they would say.
00:20:40.74\00:20:42.70
Now hope has
hands Freedom has feet
00:20:42.74\00:20:50.18
Truth will stand
00:20:50.21\00:20:53.28
And the Word will speak
00:20:53.31\00:20:57.49
The holy and lowly
Will finally embrace
00:20:57.52\00:21:05.29
For love has a heartbeat
00:21:05.33\00:21:11.97
And grace
00:21:12.00\00:21:14.54
Has a face
00:21:14.57\00:21:20.08
Listen to this.
00:21:20.11\00:21:22.88
Compassion has a
tear Joy has a laughter
00:21:22.91\00:21:30.25
And here ever
after peace has a smile
00:21:30.29\00:21:37.29
Redemption's blood
Has veins to flow in
00:21:37.33\00:21:43.67
A temple to grow in
00:21:43.70\00:21:46.97
The Light is a child
00:21:47.00\00:21:52.34
Hope has hands Freedom has feet
00:21:52.37\00:21:58.95
Truth will stand
The Word will speak
00:21:58.98\00:22:05.82
The holy and lowly
Will finally embrace
00:22:05.85\00:22:13.09
For love has a heartbeat
00:22:13.13\00:22:20.34
And grace has a face
00:22:20.37\00:22:25.01
The holy and lowly
Will finally embrace
00:22:35.42\00:22:43.26
For love has a heartbeat
00:22:43.29\00:22:46.46
Love has a heartbeat
00:22:52.20\00:22:55.14
And grace has a face
00:22:55.17\00:23:01.04
John said, "The Word became
flesh and dwelt among us."
00:23:09.02\00:23:12.35
Amen. Beautiful.
00:23:12.39\00:23:14.26
Love has a heartbeat. Yeah.
00:23:14.29\00:23:16.32
Because God is
love. That's right.
00:23:16.36\00:23:18.23
He has a heartbeat.
00:23:18.26\00:23:20.73
It takes an
eternity to describe God
00:23:20.76\00:23:24.37
and His love for fallen man
and the sacrifice that He made.
00:23:24.40\00:23:27.60
And what a different way
the author put this in here,
00:23:27.64\00:23:30.97
you know, love has a
face or grace has a face,
00:23:31.01\00:23:35.24
I mean, that's amazing.
And love has a heartbeat.
00:23:35.28\00:23:38.61
I love that second verse
is compassion has a tear.
00:23:38.65\00:23:41.52
Yes, yes. You
know, that's just good.
00:23:41.55\00:23:44.72
Isn't that
beautiful, beautiful song?
00:23:44.75\00:23:48.72
When I was a kid, we were...
00:23:48.76\00:23:50.09
My father was disabled
when I was really young.
00:23:50.13\00:23:52.23
They used to be my mother
00:23:52.26\00:23:53.60
and dad spent a number of years,
00:23:53.63\00:23:55.10
mostly my dad playing
country music and, you know,
00:23:55.13\00:23:58.57
bars, taverns, or whatever.
00:23:58.60\00:24:00.54
And my mother became
00:24:00.57\00:24:02.24
a Seventh-day
Adventist Christian in 1951
00:24:02.27\00:24:05.07
after the Lord healed her polio.
00:24:05.11\00:24:07.68
And so my dad
didn't join the church
00:24:07.71\00:24:10.71
for several more
years 'cause he said, "Well,
00:24:10.75\00:24:12.68
I got to make a living."
00:24:12.71\00:24:14.05
He was, you know, a truck driver
00:24:14.08\00:24:16.38
and then in
weekends he would do the...
00:24:16.42\00:24:18.22
And they had a radio program
I think for about five years,
00:24:18.25\00:24:20.76
I think, right, was Frankfort,
00:24:20.79\00:24:22.12
this area Southern
Illinois doing country music,
00:24:22.16\00:24:24.79
had Bernie Smith on the guitar,
00:24:24.83\00:24:26.56
Jack Medes on the bass,
00:24:26.59\00:24:27.93
my uncle Charlie on
played steel guitar,
00:24:27.96\00:24:31.33
and my mother, she played some,
00:24:31.37\00:24:33.54
but she didn't play
in the taverns too long.
00:24:33.57\00:24:35.70
She always wonder
she's resting in Jesus.
00:24:35.74\00:24:38.17
Now, Tim, she always
wanted me to say now remember,
00:24:38.21\00:24:40.48
I only spent a
few months out there.
00:24:40.51\00:24:42.11
I didn't do that,
you know, and as a mom,
00:24:42.14\00:24:45.15
you weren't a Christian
at the time, so and she...
00:24:45.18\00:24:47.15
Yeah, but I didn't...
00:24:47.18\00:24:48.62
You know, I knew
better than that.
00:24:48.65\00:24:49.98
I really was trying
to get your dad to quit.
00:24:50.02\00:24:51.65
So I thought, well, if
I go out there and play,
00:24:51.69\00:24:53.59
he will quit.
00:24:53.62\00:24:54.96
But he spent a few more years.
00:24:54.99\00:24:56.32
So he had a heart attack.
00:24:56.36\00:24:57.93
I think I was
maybe 10 years old.
00:24:57.96\00:25:00.53
And he was totally disabled
00:25:00.56\00:25:02.30
and couldn't really
work anymore and hold a job.
00:25:02.33\00:25:05.13
And so, when it
came Christmas time
00:25:05.17\00:25:07.77
as far as presents goes,
it was really slim pickings.
00:25:07.80\00:25:11.51
And so we didn't really
plan on getting that much
00:25:11.54\00:25:14.61
for Christmas.
00:25:14.64\00:25:15.98
And I can remember just
getting little things but,
00:25:16.01\00:25:18.21
you know, I never felt
anything badly about it.
00:25:18.25\00:25:21.15
I knew our situation.
00:25:21.18\00:25:22.52
We were happy one time
00:25:22.55\00:25:23.89
we'd like to get a
little pocket knife.
00:25:23.92\00:25:25.25
Hey, that's a pocket knife.
00:25:25.29\00:25:26.62
You didn't have
something that you had
00:25:26.65\00:25:28.52
and then when we got
older in high school,
00:25:28.56\00:25:30.13
I've always told the
story in high school they said,
00:25:30.16\00:25:32.36
"Well, there's
five kids and mom, dad,
00:25:32.39\00:25:34.30
let's just draw names
and you pick somebody's name
00:25:34.33\00:25:37.20
and buy them one present."
00:25:37.23\00:25:39.23
And so Kenny and I, he's
three years older than me.
00:25:39.27\00:25:42.57
He's senior, and I think I
was freshman and four years,
00:25:42.60\00:25:45.34
maybe older man,
00:25:45.37\00:25:46.71
so we picked each other's names.
00:25:46.74\00:25:49.38
So guess what we did?
00:25:49.41\00:25:50.75
We didn't wanna
buy each other present.
00:25:50.78\00:25:52.11
So we just said,
"Okay, we shake hands."
00:25:52.15\00:25:53.72
And that's Christmas.
00:25:53.75\00:25:57.45
Really the atmosphere though.
00:25:57.49\00:26:00.36
Christmas time
my folks love music.
00:26:00.39\00:26:02.19
And as I said, my mom and dad,
00:26:02.22\00:26:04.53
and we would
sing Christmas songs
00:26:04.56\00:26:06.49
around the piano.
00:26:06.53\00:26:07.86
And at church, I remember that.
00:26:07.90\00:26:09.23
And then a very
special part of Christmas was
00:26:09.26\00:26:12.10
what we
probably you'd have to be
00:26:12.13\00:26:14.04
an Adventist
Church or raised in church
00:26:14.07\00:26:16.00
to understand
this term in gathering.
00:26:16.04\00:26:18.41
Any of you old
enough to remember that,
00:26:18.44\00:26:20.11
I'm not even sure
if they do it anymore.
00:26:20.14\00:26:22.04
But for everybody else,
maybe Christmas caroling,
00:26:22.08\00:26:25.48
but we used to go
to West Frankfort.
00:26:25.51\00:26:27.35
My dad would have a
car with a tape recorder
00:26:27.38\00:26:30.79
and little
megaphone on top and he played
00:26:30.82\00:26:33.89
the King's Herald
quartet singing Christmas songs
00:26:33.92\00:26:36.69
and Uncle Olan might be
over in Benton with his kids.
00:26:36.73\00:26:39.86
And then Elmer, his
cousin Elmer Filkins
00:26:39.89\00:26:43.67
and Santian and their kids,
00:26:43.70\00:26:45.93
they would be maybe
over in Johnson City,
00:26:45.97\00:26:49.00
and somebody in Ziegler.
00:26:49.04\00:26:50.37
So we'd go to all
the neighborhoods,
00:26:50.41\00:26:51.94
and we would raise funds
and so we go to the house
00:26:51.97\00:26:54.94
and say we're raising funds
00:26:54.98\00:26:56.31
for those less
fortunate than ourselves
00:26:56.34\00:26:58.75
and so every year people
look forward to our church.
00:26:58.78\00:27:02.48
And our church members being out
00:27:02.52\00:27:04.19
and they'd have the money ready.
00:27:04.22\00:27:05.55
Lot of those folk
would say, I wondered
00:27:05.59\00:27:07.19
when you were a few days late,
00:27:07.22\00:27:09.06
I wondered when
you were gonna come by,
00:27:09.09\00:27:11.26
and I still remember.
00:27:11.29\00:27:12.99
And then my dad, my mother,
and Uncle Olan and Mildred,
00:27:13.03\00:27:17.13
and some of the other relatives,
00:27:17.17\00:27:18.50
they would take a guitar.
00:27:18.53\00:27:20.17
And, so he would
just go from door to door
00:27:20.20\00:27:23.20
and then stand
outside the houses
00:27:23.24\00:27:24.87
and then people would come out
00:27:24.91\00:27:26.37
and then
literally Christmas carol.
00:27:26.41\00:27:29.34
And, you know,
it's not always that
00:27:29.38\00:27:31.15
we don't get terrible
weather but it can be cold
00:27:31.18\00:27:33.28
around Christmas and
sometimes get snow and ice
00:27:33.31\00:27:36.18
and what have you but
when the weather was there,
00:27:36.22\00:27:38.09
they were out
there door to door.
00:27:38.12\00:27:39.82
So those are
memories in as family.
00:27:39.85\00:27:42.46
I remember, when
my dad he used to sing
00:27:42.49\00:27:44.73
and maybe Tim if
you'll give me like
00:27:44.76\00:27:47.33
F or something.
00:27:47.36\00:27:48.70
And maybe we'll
do a Silent Night.
00:27:48.73\00:27:52.23
Silent night,
00:27:52.27\00:27:56.91
Holy night!
00:27:56.94\00:28:01.94
All is calm,
00:28:01.98\00:28:06.28
All is bright
00:28:06.31\00:28:11.45
Round yon Virgin
00:28:11.49\00:28:15.79
Mother and Child
00:28:15.82\00:28:19.73
Holy Infant
00:28:19.76\00:28:23.77
So tender and mild
00:28:23.80\00:28:28.90
Sleep in heavenly peace
00:28:28.94\00:28:35.14
Sleep in heavenly
00:28:38.61\00:28:44.79
Peace though
00:28:44.82\00:28:48.16
Brings back Too
many memories of that.
00:28:48.19\00:28:53.33
Silent night,
00:28:53.36\00:28:57.57
Holy night!
00:28:57.60\00:29:01.90
Shepherds quake
00:29:01.94\00:29:06.17
At the sight Glories stream
00:29:06.21\00:29:13.75
From heaven afar
00:29:13.78\00:29:18.72
Heavenly hosts
00:29:18.75\00:29:22.92
Sing Alleluia!
00:29:22.96\00:29:27.86
Christ the Savior
00:29:27.90\00:29:32.37
Is born
00:29:32.40\00:29:37.51
Christ the Savior
00:29:37.54\00:29:42.54
Is born
00:29:42.58\00:29:46.48
I think there's one more verse.
00:29:46.51\00:29:52.02
Silent night,
00:29:52.05\00:29:56.16
holy night!
00:29:56.19\00:30:00.16
Son of God,
00:30:00.20\00:30:04.10
Love's pure light
00:30:04.13\00:30:08.47
Radiant beams
00:30:08.50\00:30:12.37
From Thy holy face
00:30:12.41\00:30:17.21
With the dawn of
00:30:17.25\00:30:20.82
Redeeming grace
00:30:20.85\00:30:25.69
Jesus Lord, at Thy birth
00:30:25.72\00:30:31.36
Jesus Lord, at Thy birth
00:30:35.73\00:30:43.34
Amen. Beautiful?
00:30:54.52\00:30:55.85
It's beautiful.
Beautiful old song, isn't it?
00:30:55.88\00:30:58.65
Yeah. Yes.
00:30:58.69\00:31:00.02
Yeah, that kind
of chokes you up,
00:31:00.06\00:31:01.39
you think about, you know,
00:31:01.42\00:31:02.79
your loved ones that
are now resting in the Lord
00:31:02.82\00:31:06.33
and we think of the hope,
00:31:06.36\00:31:07.70
Tim, you sang about
the hope of eternity,
00:31:07.73\00:31:09.96
the hope of salvation,
the hope of a new world.
00:31:10.00\00:31:12.93
No more sickness, no
more pain, now more sorrow.
00:31:12.97\00:31:14.57
Yes, yes. Thank you.
00:31:14.60\00:31:16.47
No more. No more death. Yes.
00:31:16.50\00:31:18.71
I'm gonna ask
you to do something,
00:31:18.74\00:31:20.18
you've never done this song.
00:31:20.21\00:31:21.94
And you've never done
it all the way through.
00:31:21.98\00:31:24.45
And this wouldn't be nice,
00:31:24.48\00:31:25.81
but they're gonna
have a teleprompter
00:31:25.85\00:31:27.85
with the words on it.
00:31:27.88\00:31:29.32
It's a song
that I sat and wrote,
00:31:29.35\00:31:31.52
but Tim Parton
actually helped me
00:31:31.55\00:31:32.89
I had to tune and I
remember, Joy is Born.
00:31:32.92\00:31:36.73
And you remember that song?
00:31:36.76\00:31:38.09
You probably don't remember...
00:31:38.13\00:31:39.46
How long it was that?
Well, about 10 years or so.
00:31:39.49\00:31:43.67
You see this gray hair.
00:31:43.70\00:31:45.60
I asked him to
kind of just help me
00:31:45.63\00:31:47.47
with the chords and
stuff but he ended up writing
00:31:47.50\00:31:49.64
much prettier than me.
00:31:49.67\00:31:51.01
So I might have put
your name on that Tim.
00:31:51.04\00:31:52.77
Unless you don't like
it, but if you like it,
00:31:52.81\00:31:54.41
and it's okay...
00:31:54.44\00:31:55.78
Although it
depends how I play it now.
00:31:55.81\00:31:57.15
We'll put your name
on it but it's a song.
00:31:57.18\00:31:59.15
I love how he got me
00:31:59.18\00:32:00.52
to sing the
song that he wrote...
00:32:00.55\00:32:01.88
Well, I sang with the
kids a number of years ago
00:32:01.92\00:32:04.55
but she made the
mistake of saying
00:32:04.59\00:32:06.25
that's a beautiful song.
00:32:06.29\00:32:07.72
That's not just
a children's song.
00:32:07.76\00:32:09.66
I'd be happy to sing that.
00:32:09.69\00:32:11.13
So I know you
haven't even practiced it
00:32:11.16\00:32:13.50
all the way
through done anything
00:32:13.53\00:32:15.10
and it's been years but
if, Tim if you know what,
00:32:15.13\00:32:16.46
maybe sing this one...
00:32:16.50\00:32:18.00
This is spontaneity.
00:32:18.03\00:32:19.37
And it reminded me of it
00:32:19.40\00:32:21.64
because we said joy was born,
00:32:21.67\00:32:24.17
that when Christ...
00:32:24.21\00:32:25.54
When Jesus was
born, joy was born.
00:32:25.57\00:32:26.91
Yes. Yes.
00:32:26.94\00:32:28.28
In a little
town Called Bethlehem
00:32:38.35\00:32:43.89
Early in the morning
00:32:43.93\00:32:48.66
In a stable just behind the inn
00:32:48.70\00:32:54.17
Joy was born
00:32:54.20\00:32:59.27
Joy was born Joy was born
00:32:59.31\00:33:05.15
On that first Christmas morning
00:33:05.18\00:33:10.52
Joy was born Joy was born
00:33:10.55\00:33:15.96
As the Savior of the world
00:33:15.99\00:33:21.86
The King of
kings From heaven above
00:33:21.90\00:33:27.44
Came to set us free
00:33:27.47\00:33:32.77
He died that We
might live with Him
00:33:32.81\00:33:38.48
For eternity
00:33:38.51\00:33:43.79
Joy was born Joy was born
00:33:43.82\00:33:49.49
On that first Christmas morning
00:33:49.52\00:33:55.16
Joy was born Joy was born
00:33:55.20\00:34:00.54
As the Savior of the world
00:34:00.57\00:34:07.14
The package was small
But the gift was so great
00:34:07.18\00:34:12.25
It was a baby boy
That we now celebrate
00:34:12.28\00:34:17.85
He created the
world By a spoken command
00:34:17.89\00:34:23.09
Now He holds the
world's In the palm of His hand
00:34:23.12\00:34:27.93
Think about that.
00:34:27.96\00:34:29.30
Joy was born Joy was born
00:34:38.34\00:34:43.85
On that first Christmas morning
00:34:43.88\00:34:49.08
Joy was born Joy was born
00:34:49.12\00:34:54.56
As the Savior of the world
00:34:54.59\00:34:58.79
As the Savior of the world
00:35:03.13\00:35:09.57
Thank you. Very well done.
00:35:17.51\00:35:18.98
Praise the
Lord. Thank you, Lord.
00:35:19.01\00:35:20.68
That's what we pray for us.
00:35:20.72\00:35:22.05
I had forgotten
about the little...
00:35:22.08\00:35:24.25
Bridge, right?
00:35:24.29\00:35:25.62
On there the package was
small but the gift was so great.
00:35:25.65\00:35:28.69
It was a baby boy
that we now celebrate.
00:35:28.72\00:35:31.73
He created the
worlds with a spoken command
00:35:31.76\00:35:34.13
and now He holds those
worlds in the palm of His hand.
00:35:34.16\00:35:38.00
Beautiful. Isn't that great?
00:35:38.03\00:35:39.43
Can you see, you know,
00:35:39.47\00:35:40.80
I love looking at
a little baby's hand.
00:35:40.84\00:35:42.27
Yeah. Yes!
00:35:42.30\00:35:43.64
And you know, when
you're looking at Jesus
00:35:43.67\00:35:46.21
in there in the manger
to know those little hands
00:35:46.24\00:35:49.61
holding the world.
00:35:49.64\00:35:50.98
Absolutely. Absolutely.
00:35:51.01\00:35:53.28
So I'm sorry to
throw that on you
00:35:53.31\00:35:54.65
but you did a
great job by the way.
00:35:54.68\00:35:56.18
Oh, I was so glad you
came in at the bridge.
00:35:56.22\00:35:58.49
Well, I do. You saved the day.
00:35:58.52\00:36:00.36
I'm not sure I've
got, I may have changed
00:36:00.39\00:36:01.86
the tune up a little bit,
00:36:01.89\00:36:03.59
but I just
remembered she didn't know it.
00:36:03.63\00:36:05.39
That's good.
00:36:05.43\00:36:06.76
Anyways, it's just a little song
00:36:06.80\00:36:08.13
I did working with the kids
and Yvonne said oh, you know,
00:36:08.16\00:36:10.87
and what you said
while ago reminded me of that
00:36:10.90\00:36:13.97
joy was born that
first Christmas morning.
00:36:14.00\00:36:16.60
Yes. Amen. Yeah.
00:36:16.64\00:36:19.21
You try the King. Sure.
00:36:19.24\00:36:22.24
A King has
come. A King has come.
00:36:22.28\00:36:24.18
Man, I need to
stand up for this one.
00:36:24.21\00:36:25.75
Sure.
00:36:25.78\00:36:27.12
No royal robes
00:36:47.64\00:36:52.27
adorned the infant
00:36:52.31\00:36:56.31
No crown upon
00:36:56.34\00:36:59.95
His sacred head
00:36:59.98\00:37:03.79
Yet shepherds bow down
00:37:03.82\00:37:08.06
And wise men worship
00:37:08.09\00:37:12.03
Beside
00:37:12.06\00:37:13.43
His holy manger bed
00:37:13.46\00:37:20.07
A King has come
00:37:20.10\00:37:23.87
To dwell among us
00:37:23.91\00:37:27.61
A King has come to set us free
00:37:27.64\00:37:35.38
He left His throne
And laid aside His glory
00:37:35.42\00:37:41.76
To be love's greatest story
00:37:41.79\00:37:46.53
How can it be God's only Son
00:37:46.56\00:37:53.20
The King has come
00:37:56.94\00:38:00.91
Emmanuel has come to save us
00:38:11.62\00:38:18.76
The Promised One
will rule And reign
00:38:18.79\00:38:25.53
A host of heaven
announced His entrance
00:38:25.57\00:38:32.61
Now with the angels'
00:38:32.64\00:38:36.31
Reproclaim
00:38:36.34\00:38:40.02
A King has come
00:38:40.05\00:38:44.05
To dwell among us
00:38:44.09\00:38:47.39
A King has come to set us free
00:38:47.42\00:38:54.36
He left His throne
00:38:54.40\00:38:57.30
And laid aside His glory
00:38:57.33\00:39:00.74
To be love's greatest story
00:39:00.77\00:39:04.94
How can it be
00:39:04.97\00:39:08.44
God's only Son
00:39:08.48\00:39:14.08
The King has come
00:39:14.12\00:39:19.89
He shall reign forever
00:39:19.92\00:39:26.70
He shall reign forever
00:39:26.73\00:39:32.90
He shall reign forever
00:39:32.93\00:39:39.34
And ever more
00:39:39.37\00:39:46.55
He shall reign forever
00:39:46.58\00:39:52.75
He shall reign forever
00:39:52.79\00:39:59.29
He shall reign forever
00:39:59.33\00:40:05.83
And ever more
00:40:05.87\00:40:12.01
The King has come
00:40:12.04\00:40:16.24
To dwell among us
00:40:16.28\00:40:20.15
A King has come to set us free
00:40:20.18\00:40:26.76
He left His throne
And laid aside His glory
00:40:26.79\00:40:33.19
To be love's greatest story
00:40:33.23\00:40:37.33
How can it be
00:40:37.37\00:40:40.90
God's only Son
00:40:40.94\00:40:47.58
God's only Son
00:40:47.61\00:40:54.12
The King has come
00:40:54.15\00:40:58.82
Amen.
00:41:09.06\00:41:10.40
Praise the
Lord. Praise the Lord.
00:41:10.43\00:41:11.83
Beautiful. Where
did that song come from?
00:41:11.87\00:41:14.14
I haven't heard that
one. Tim sent me that song.
00:41:14.17\00:41:17.21
I don't know where did
you get that song from, Timmy?
00:41:17.24\00:41:20.38
I don't know where
that came from either.
00:41:20.41\00:41:21.74
I don't know where he hear
00:41:21.78\00:41:24.45
those songs come
from all over like it...
00:41:24.48\00:41:25.81
I just knew when I heard it.
00:41:25.85\00:41:27.18
You know what I love
about being a part of a family
00:41:27.22\00:41:30.85
is that you know
each other so well,
00:41:30.89\00:41:33.25
that when you hear
something like a song,
00:41:33.29\00:41:35.76
while you think that's Yvonne,
that's got Yvonne all over it.
00:41:35.79\00:41:39.66
And God was all over that.
00:41:39.69\00:41:41.53
Amen. Praise the Lord.
00:41:41.56\00:41:43.26
Praise the Lord. Absolutely now.
00:41:43.30\00:41:44.63
A King has come. I know.
00:41:44.67\00:41:46.00
That's what this
whole thing is about.
00:41:46.03\00:41:47.37
Isn't that incredible?
00:41:47.40\00:41:48.74
And when you think about
what He gave up to come here,
00:41:48.77\00:41:52.04
I mean He, you know,
00:41:52.07\00:41:53.54
it starts out
with no royal robes.
00:41:53.58\00:41:56.14
He had no royal
robes when He came here.
00:41:56.18\00:41:58.41
Stripped up, right?
Yes, I mean, He just...
00:41:58.45\00:42:00.95
He laid them aside.
00:42:00.98\00:42:02.32
He emptied Himself and came here
00:42:02.35\00:42:04.35
and lived as a man among us,
00:42:04.39\00:42:07.49
so that He could know everything
00:42:07.52\00:42:10.96
and experience the
things that we go through.
00:42:10.99\00:42:13.86
He was tempted in all points
as we are yet without sin.
00:42:13.90\00:42:19.03
So we can go to
Him and know that
00:42:19.07\00:42:21.60
He's experienced everything.
00:42:21.64\00:42:24.61
And we can trust Him to
bring us through everything.
00:42:24.64\00:42:28.81
Absolutely.
00:42:28.84\00:42:30.18
I feel like we
getting into, we've a church.
00:42:30.21\00:42:31.55
We're having church, right?
00:42:31.58\00:42:32.91
All right, understood.
00:42:32.95\00:42:34.28
Well, you know what, we
are having such great time.
00:42:34.32\00:42:37.39
Tim has been playing, but
I hadn't really heard him.
00:42:37.42\00:42:39.92
I mean, what would it
be a program without him
00:42:39.95\00:42:42.39
just turning all those fingers
00:42:42.42\00:42:43.99
and two thumbs
loose on the piano,
00:42:44.03\00:42:46.26
and then he can
surprise himself.
00:42:46.29\00:42:47.96
Right.
00:42:48.00\00:42:49.33
You know what's
been on my heart...
00:42:49.36\00:42:51.63
Wasn't it...
00:42:51.67\00:42:54.50
I know he's a
good friend of ours
00:42:54.54\00:42:56.04
and we sing a lot
of his music, but...
00:42:56.07\00:42:58.41
Lanny Wolfe or
somebody. Yeah, right.
00:42:58.44\00:43:00.54
Didn't he write
cherish that beautiful name?
00:43:00.58\00:43:01.91
Yeah, he did. Cherish that name.
00:43:01.94\00:43:03.28
I just wanna play a
kind of little Jesus medley.
00:43:03.31\00:43:05.21
I got some of
songs I have no clue
00:43:05.25\00:43:07.12
but we'll just make this happen.
00:43:07.15\00:43:09.58
Can we do that again?
00:44:07.84\00:44:09.98
Cherish that beautiful name
00:44:10.01\00:44:16.99
Cherish that wonderful name
00:44:17.02\00:44:24.36
Cherish that matchless name
00:44:24.39\00:44:31.87
That name is Jesus
00:44:31.90\00:44:37.21
I can't help it, Yvonne.
00:45:51.48\00:45:53.72
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus,
00:45:53.75\00:46:01.56
There's just something
00:46:01.59\00:46:04.59
About that name
00:46:04.63\00:46:08.03
Master, Savior,
00:46:11.37\00:46:15.50
Jesus Like the fragrance
00:46:15.54\00:46:22.18
After the rain
00:46:22.21\00:46:28.62
Jesus, Jesus, Jesus
00:46:28.65\00:46:33.72
Let all heaven and earth
00:46:36.83\00:46:41.10
Proclaim
00:46:41.13\00:46:46.30
Kings and kingdoms
00:46:46.33\00:46:50.71
will all pass away
00:46:50.74\00:46:55.01
But there's
something about that name
00:46:55.04\00:47:02.68
Just one more if you don't mind?
00:47:02.72\00:47:04.32
Oh, keep going.
00:47:04.35\00:47:05.69
His name is wonderful
00:48:44.45\00:48:49.19
His name is wonderful
00:48:49.22\00:48:54.30
His name is wonderful
00:48:54.33\00:48:59.07
Jesus my Lord
00:48:59.10\00:49:04.97
He is the mighty King
00:49:05.01\00:49:09.54
He's Master of everything
00:49:09.58\00:49:14.82
His name is wonderful
00:49:14.85\00:49:19.45
Jesus my Lord
00:49:19.49\00:49:24.76
He's the Great Shepherd
00:49:24.79\00:49:28.93
The Rock of all ages
00:49:28.96\00:49:33.07
Almighty God
00:49:33.10\00:49:37.07
Is He
00:49:37.11\00:49:39.31
Bow down before Him
00:49:43.85\00:49:50.09
Love and adore Him
00:49:50.12\00:49:54.99
His name is wonderful
00:49:55.02\00:50:00.83
It's Jesus my Lord
00:50:00.86\00:50:06.84
It's beautiful. Praise the Lord.
00:50:11.87\00:50:13.34
Beautiful. Praise the Lord.
00:50:13.38\00:50:15.28
What an anointing.
00:50:15.31\00:50:16.64
Yeah, I just feel
the presence of God here,
00:50:16.68\00:50:19.68
such a wonderful
feeling to know that He is here.
00:50:19.71\00:50:24.59
He's in our midst.
00:50:24.62\00:50:26.15
Yeah.
00:50:26.19\00:50:27.56
Do you wanna sing that?
00:50:27.59\00:50:30.93
He is here, Hallelujah!
00:50:30.96\00:50:37.67
He is here, Amen!
00:50:37.70\00:50:44.51
He is here, Holy, Holy
00:50:44.54\00:50:51.35
I will bless His name again
00:50:51.38\00:50:58.19
He is here, listen closely
00:50:58.22\00:51:04.99
Hear Him calling out your name
00:51:05.03\00:51:11.73
He is here,
00:51:11.77\00:51:15.27
you can touch Him
00:51:15.30\00:51:19.01
You will never be the same
00:51:19.04\00:51:24.98
This is just a
praise and worship time.
00:51:28.58\00:51:30.89
Right. Isn't it? Yes, yes.
00:51:30.92\00:51:32.49
You know how many
mothers during that nine months
00:51:32.52\00:51:38.56
of waiting for a child to come?
00:51:38.59\00:51:41.90
And I can just imagine
Mary singing this song.
00:51:41.93\00:51:45.60
Yes. He is here finally, right?
00:51:45.63\00:51:48.40
Right. How many...
00:51:48.44\00:51:49.84
Oh, wow... That's good.
00:51:49.87\00:51:53.11
Yes. Yes. Absolutely, beautiful.
00:51:53.14\00:51:55.94
I'm thinking
about the folks at home
00:51:55.98\00:51:57.75
and right now
maybe you're watching
00:51:57.78\00:52:00.12
and it could be
from a hospital bed,
00:52:00.15\00:52:02.95
you may be
watching, you're incarcerated,
00:52:02.98\00:52:06.02
you may be
somewhere totally by yourself.
00:52:06.05\00:52:08.79
We want you to know that
00:52:08.82\00:52:10.39
Jesus loves
you, He died for you,
00:52:10.43\00:52:12.16
He made a plan of
salvation for you,
00:52:12.19\00:52:13.83
and He's coming back for you
00:52:13.86\00:52:15.36
very soon in clouds of glory.
00:52:15.40\00:52:16.80
Today is not the day to give up.
00:52:16.83\00:52:19.43
Today is the day to look up.
00:52:19.47\00:52:22.57
And this is a
reminder, this season
00:52:22.60\00:52:25.47
that Jesus gave His
life for you and me.
00:52:25.51\00:52:28.98
He was willing to
come down to this earth,
00:52:29.01\00:52:31.51
born in a manger
in swaddling clothes
00:52:31.55\00:52:34.18
is amazing that He would do that
00:52:34.22\00:52:38.92
and give His
life for you and me.
00:52:38.95\00:52:42.12
Thirty-three years
on this earth dedicated
00:52:42.16\00:52:44.19
to His father's business.
00:52:44.23\00:52:45.76
Remember, when He
went to the temple
00:52:45.79\00:52:47.26
and His folks looking for Him?
00:52:47.30\00:52:48.73
He said, they said,
"Where have You been?"
00:52:48.76\00:52:50.83
You know, He says, "Hey,
00:52:50.87\00:52:52.20
I've been about my
Father's business."
00:52:52.23\00:52:54.10
He knew even then and
today it's my open prayer that
00:52:54.14\00:52:57.11
each one of us know
that we're here for a reason
00:52:57.14\00:53:00.64
for such an hour as this.
00:53:00.68\00:53:02.24
And that's it we should be
about our Father's business.
00:53:02.28\00:53:05.48
And what's our
Father's business?
00:53:05.51\00:53:07.28
It's telling all those
that we come in contact
00:53:07.32\00:53:10.25
with about the
great plan of salvation,
00:53:10.29\00:53:12.99
about Jesus and His
love for fallen men.
00:53:13.02\00:53:16.83
And that yet
though we're all sinners,
00:53:16.86\00:53:20.46
no one has
lived on this earth...
00:53:20.50\00:53:22.70
Jesus never sinned,
though we're all sinners
00:53:22.73\00:53:26.07
we're saved by grace.
00:53:26.10\00:53:27.44
He says, "If you
confess your sins,
00:53:27.47\00:53:30.31
the Bible says, He is faithful
00:53:30.34\00:53:31.94
and just to
forgive us from our sins,
00:53:31.97\00:53:34.28
and to cleanse us
from all unrighteousness."
00:53:34.31\00:53:38.61
I mean, what a
wonderful Savior that we have.
00:53:38.65\00:53:43.79
Jesus, my Lord.
00:53:43.82\00:53:45.15
Beautiful.
00:53:58.23\00:53:59.57
Wow, I can't
believe we only have
00:53:59.60\00:54:00.94
just a few
minutes left, can you?
00:54:00.97\00:54:03.24
And is there any
other song you want to do?
00:54:03.27\00:54:05.74
Or is there something
she was supposed to do
00:54:05.77\00:54:07.21
or could do or something?
00:54:07.24\00:54:08.98
We could do something
together since we're ending.
00:54:09.01\00:54:11.28
Something
happy... Tim surprises.
00:54:11.31\00:54:12.65
Up and happy, Tim. Okay.
00:54:12.68\00:54:14.58
We've always got a list of
options here, but let's see.
00:54:14.62\00:54:18.49
Let's do, O
Come, All Ye Faithful.
00:54:18.52\00:54:20.26
Oh, that's good. Who's
going to do the melody?
00:54:20.29\00:54:22.59
Oh, you do it. I
think you can pull this one.
00:54:22.62\00:54:24.79
Okay. All right.
00:54:24.83\00:54:30.10
O come, all ye faithful
00:54:30.13\00:54:35.00
Joyful and triumphant
00:54:35.04\00:54:38.67
O come ye, O come ye,
00:54:38.71\00:54:42.78

00:54:42.81\00:54:47.65
Come and behold Him
00:54:47.68\00:54:51.65
Born the King of Angels!

00:54:59.46\00:55:03.50
O come, let us adore Him
00:55:03.53\00:55:08.30
Christ the Lord!
00:55:08.34\00:55:14.74
Sing, choirs of angels,
00:55:14.78\00:55:18.81
sing in exaltation
00:55:18.85\00:55:22.88
Sing, all ye citizens
00:55:22.92\00:55:26.55
of heaven above!
00:55:26.59\00:55:31.13
Glory to God
00:55:31.16\00:55:35.20
Glory in the highest
00:55:35.23\00:55:39.20
O come, let us adore Him
00:55:39.23\00:55:43.07
O come, let us adore Him
00:55:43.10\00:55:47.11
O come, let us adore Him
00:55:47.14\00:55:51.81
Christ the Lord!
00:55:51.85\00:55:55.25
Yea, Lord, we greet Thee
00:56:10.40\00:56:14.60
Born this happy morning
00:56:14.64\00:56:18.77
Jesus
00:56:18.81\00:56:20.51
To Thee be glory given
00:56:20.54\00:56:27.15
Son of the Father
00:56:27.18\00:56:31.42
Now in flesh appearing
00:56:31.45\00:56:35.26
O come, let us adore Him
00:56:35.29\00:56:39.33
O come, let us adore Him
00:56:39.36\00:56:43.50
O come, let us adore Him
00:56:43.53\00:56:48.44
Christ the Lord!
00:56:48.47\00:56:53.27
Amen.
00:57:09.12\00:57:10.46
Isn't that fun
just to set around,
00:57:10.49\00:57:11.83
I mean, with Tim Parton
you can just set around Yvonne
00:57:11.86\00:57:13.96
and do a program and
enjoy it not even know
00:57:14.00\00:57:16.26
what we're gonna be doing.
00:57:16.30\00:57:17.80
Praise the Lord for
that. Thank you so much.
00:57:17.83\00:57:19.40
We wanna thank you
at home for your love
00:57:19.43\00:57:21.00
and your prayers
and financial support
00:57:21.04\00:57:23.00
of Three Angels
Broadcasting Network
00:57:23.04\00:57:25.44
as we endeavor to
take this great gospel
00:57:25.47\00:57:27.84
of the kingdom
into all the world.
00:57:27.88\00:57:29.88
We know that Jesus
is coming very soon.
00:57:29.91\00:57:31.75
It's our hope and prayer
that each and every one of us
00:57:31.78\00:57:33.98
today that you won't
turn off the television set
00:57:34.02\00:57:36.58
when this program
is over us included
00:57:36.62\00:57:39.19
until we've made a
new commitment to Jesus
00:57:39.22\00:57:41.59
and ask Him to
come into our heart,
00:57:41.62\00:57:43.66
into our mind, and
to be Lord of our life.
00:57:43.69\00:57:47.30
Then, then it says, "Go
and tell what He's done."
00:57:47.33\00:57:50.03
Yeah.
00:57:50.07\00:57:51.40
So we wanna become part
of the Go Ye movement, right?
00:57:51.43\00:57:53.74
"Go ye into all
the world." Yeah.
00:57:53.77\00:57:55.60
Our time is all gone for today.
00:57:55.64\00:57:57.81
Until we see you next time,
00:57:57.84\00:57:59.17
may the Lord richly
bless you abundantly
00:57:59.21\00:58:00.81
more than you
could ever ask or think.
00:58:00.84\00:58:03.18
