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\00:00:05.83
the birth of our
Savior's on everyone's mind.
00:00:05.87\00:00:08.74
We sing glory to
God in the highest
00:00:08.77\00:00:10.81
and on earth peace,
goodwill toward men.
00:00:10.84\00:00:13.61
Celebrate this special season
and worship our Savior and King
00:00:13.64\00:00:17.68
as we bring you Christmas
with our 3ABN Musical Family.
00:00:17.71\00:00:22.62
Hello and welcome to this
special 3ABN Christmas Program.
00:00:22.65\00:00:27.16
We're so happy to be here
00:00:27.19\00:00:28.52
with some of our favorite people
00:00:28.56\00:00:30.16
and singers.
00:00:30.19\00:00:31.53
Thanks for having us.
00:00:31.56\00:00:32.89
And we are glad
00:00:32.93\00:00:34.26
that we're with
you at your home.
00:00:34.30\00:00:35.63
Amen.
00:00:35.66\00:00:37.00
I don't know if you're
getting ready for Christmas,
00:00:37.03\00:00:38.37
but we want you
to sing along with us
00:00:38.40\00:00:39.80
and we want you to
know that if you're alone,
00:00:39.83\00:00:41.27
you are not alone.
00:00:41.30\00:00:42.64
That's right.
00:00:42.67\00:00:44.01
You're here with us
and God is with you always.
00:00:44.04\00:00:45.57
Yes.
00:00:45.61\00:00:46.94
So we're gonna sing
some just familiar carols,
00:00:46.98\00:00:48.94
some familiar hymns,
00:00:48.98\00:00:50.45
and we want you to
sing along with us.
00:00:50.48\00:00:52.28
So here's our
first one. All right.
00:00:52.31\00:00:53.95
O come, let us adore Him
00:01:02.89\00:01:08.06
O come, let us adore Him
00:01:08.10\00:01:13.23
O come, let us adore Him
00:01:13.27\00:01:19.37
Christ the Lord
00:01:19.41\00:01:24.65
For He alone is worthy
00:01:24.68\00:01:30.02
For He alone is worthy
00:01:30.05\00:01:35.42
For He alone is worthy
00:01:35.46\00:01:42.06
Christ the Lord
00:01:42.10\00:01:47.10
We'll give Him all the glory
00:01:49.20\00:01:54.74
We'll give Him all the glory
00:01:54.78\00:02:00.32
We'll give Him all the glory
00:02:00.35\00:02:06.76
Christ the Lord
00:02:06.79\00:02:11.06
Christ the Lord
00:02:19.80\00:02:26.68
Beautiful.
00:02:28.64\00:02:29.98
Ladye mentioned something
earlier about if you're lonely,
00:02:30.01\00:02:33.62
know that God is with us.
00:02:33.65\00:02:35.15
And that's exactly
what Emmanuel means.
00:02:35.18\00:02:37.32
That's right. God with us.
00:02:37.35\00:02:39.39
And I can just imagine the
night that Christ was born.
00:02:39.42\00:02:45.36
Mary and Joseph are
looking into His eyes
00:02:45.39\00:02:48.66
and just looking at
each other and saying,
00:02:48.70\00:02:51.40
"Isn't He beautiful?
00:02:51.43\00:02:52.97
Isn't He wonderful?"
00:02:53.00\00:02:54.60
This is the Isaiah
the prophet had stated,
00:02:54.64\00:02:58.64
He will be called... His
name will be called wonderful.
00:02:58.67\00:03:00.94
Yes.
00:03:00.98\00:03:02.31
Yvonne, you wanna sing?
00:03:02.34\00:03:04.11
Yeah, sure. Come on, girl.
00:03:04.15\00:03:06.75
Beautiful. I have a
little lullaby almost.
00:03:06.78\00:03:09.45
One of my favorite singers.
00:03:09.48\00:03:10.95
Isn't He beautiful?
00:03:16.42\00:03:21.96
Beautiful, isn't He?
00:03:23.26\00:03:28.37
Prince of Peace
00:03:29.50\00:03:32.37
Son of God Isn't He?
00:03:32.41\00:03:38.51
Isn't He so Wonderful?
00:03:42.88\00:03:49.12
Wonderful, isn't He?
00:03:49.16\00:03:55.76
Counselor, Almighty God
00:03:55.80\00:04:02.74
Isn't He? Isn't He?
00:04:02.77\00:04:08.51
Isn't He?
00:04:09.74\00:04:11.51
Can you sing Majesty?
00:04:28.33\00:04:29.76
Majesty
00:04:32.60\00:04:37.11
Worship His Majesty
00:04:37.14\00:04:43.04
Unto Jesus
00:04:43.08\00:04:46.95
Be all glory, honor, and praise
00:04:46.98\00:04:52.52
Majesty
00:04:55.79\00:04:59.86
Kingdom authority
00:04:59.89\00:05:05.53
Flow from His throne
00:05:05.57\00:05:08.60
Unto His own His anthem raise
00:05:08.64\00:05:14.91
So exalt, lift up on high
00:05:16.61\00:05:21.85
The name of Jesus
00:05:21.88\00:05:27.19
Magnify, come glorify
00:05:27.22\00:05:31.99
Christ Jesus the King
00:05:32.03\00:05:36.10
Majesty
00:05:40.94\00:05:45.51
Worship His Majesty
00:05:45.54\00:05:50.58
Jesus who died now glorified
00:05:52.08\00:05:58.35
King of all kings
00:05:58.39\00:06:03.86
Jesus who died now glorified
00:06:03.89\00:06:10.37
King of all kings
00:06:10.40\00:06:15.40
Amen. Amen!
00:06:25.11\00:06:26.82
Praise the Lord.
00:06:26.85\00:06:28.65
Wow, isn't Christmas just
such an amazing time to reflect,
00:06:28.68\00:06:32.69
and it's a hard
time for a lot of people,
00:06:32.72\00:06:34.72
but it's a time to be
grateful for everything,
00:06:34.76\00:06:39.23
for all the hard times,
00:06:39.26\00:06:40.60
for the good
times, for the struggle.
00:06:40.63\00:06:42.86
I know, you know,
00:06:42.90\00:06:44.23
a lot of times you see us
sitting up here and you think,
00:06:44.27\00:06:46.37
"Oh, look, they have all
great things to sing about.
00:06:46.40\00:06:50.01
They have wonderful
lives." No problems.
00:06:50.04\00:06:52.51
And I wanna tell you,
00:06:52.54\00:06:54.08
no one in life goes
without struggle without her.
00:06:54.11\00:06:56.91
I look at all of
these great friends.
00:06:56.95\00:06:59.65
And, John, we went
with you to New York,
00:06:59.68\00:07:01.32
and we saw where
your daddy played.
00:07:01.35\00:07:04.22
And you've had hard
things that you've gone through.
00:07:04.25\00:07:07.46
That's right.
00:07:07.49\00:07:08.82
I don't know if you wanna
share a little bit about that
00:07:08.86\00:07:10.19
or if you just want to...
00:07:10.23\00:07:11.56
You know, I heard just
recently about the fact that
00:07:11.59\00:07:16.26
sun melts butter,
but it hardens clay.
00:07:16.30\00:07:20.14
And I thought
about it and I said,
00:07:20.17\00:07:21.50
you know, it's not
just what you go through,
00:07:21.54\00:07:22.87
it's what you're made of.
00:07:22.90\00:07:24.54
And a lot of times, we
could become the victim
00:07:24.57\00:07:27.18
of our circumstances,
00:07:27.21\00:07:28.78
not just what happens to
us but our reaction to it.
00:07:28.81\00:07:32.11
And I, you know, being
abandoned at three months old,
00:07:32.15\00:07:34.98
being raised at babysitters,
00:07:35.02\00:07:36.65
losing the lady who raised
me when I was 13 years old,
00:07:36.69\00:07:39.65
and having to make a decision
to from this point on in life,
00:07:39.69\00:07:42.36
I'd have to decide whether
I'm gonna make it or not.
00:07:42.39\00:07:44.76
And so here I am
many, many years later,
00:07:44.79\00:07:46.86
and I look back at that journey,
00:07:46.90\00:07:48.23
and I realize our
journey really becomes
00:07:48.26\00:07:51.10
the tapestry of who we become.
00:07:51.13\00:07:53.10
So when we could
pause and sing about
00:07:53.13\00:07:56.10
"Isn't He Beautiful?"
00:07:56.14\00:07:57.81
the Lord is
beautiful in the tough times,
00:07:57.84\00:08:00.01
in the beautiful times
He's beautiful all the time.
00:08:00.04\00:08:03.04
So praise God for
that. That's right.
00:08:03.08\00:08:04.81
And, Celestine, you
see this beautiful lady,
00:08:04.85\00:08:07.55
this beautiful
woman here of God.
00:08:07.58\00:08:09.38
She has a
beautiful heart inside.
00:08:09.42\00:08:11.29
She has a gorgeous voice.
00:08:11.32\00:08:13.15
And you see her,
she has a daughter
00:08:13.19\00:08:14.89
that's amazingly talented.
00:08:14.92\00:08:16.39
And you think, "Wow.
00:08:16.42\00:08:17.76
And it is why our God
has blessed her so greatly."
00:08:17.79\00:08:20.26
But, you know,
she's been through
00:08:20.30\00:08:21.63
hard times too, haven't you?
00:08:21.66\00:08:23.00
Yes.
00:08:23.03\00:08:24.37
You want to share a
little bit about that?
00:08:24.40\00:08:25.73
I don't know. I'm gonna cry.
00:08:26.84\00:08:28.64
It's okay. You
don't have to share it.
00:08:28.67\00:08:30.44
You just tell
them the basic. Yeah.
00:08:30.47\00:08:32.27
Yeah, she's struggling
00:08:35.58\00:08:37.51
and she really
needs our prayers.
00:08:37.55\00:08:40.52
You know, like, on and off,
00:08:40.55\00:08:43.39
but God blessed her so much
that at least she's still...
00:08:43.42\00:08:49.92
You know, that... Love God.
00:08:51.23\00:08:52.69
Lots of prayer for each of us.
00:08:52.73\00:08:54.06
We each
struggle, we go through ups
00:08:54.10\00:08:56.36
and we go downs in life.
00:08:56.40\00:08:57.73
Yeah.
00:08:57.77\00:08:59.10
And, you know,
we've all had them.
00:08:59.13\00:09:00.47
And, you know,
you and your family...
00:09:00.50\00:09:01.84
John's had problems
and you all had problems.
00:09:01.87\00:09:04.27
We should have ours.
00:09:04.31\00:09:05.87
You have yours,
and you have yours.
00:09:05.91\00:09:07.84
But guess what?
00:09:07.88\00:09:09.21
He is faithful. He is faithful.
00:09:09.24\00:09:10.91
He is the constant.
00:09:10.95\00:09:12.28
He will bring you through
whatever you are going through.
00:09:12.31\00:09:14.42
I just wanted to say that
00:09:14.45\00:09:15.78
not to bring it all
down but for you to know.
00:09:15.82\00:09:17.35
You have hope today. Yes.
00:09:17.39\00:09:18.99
You have hope in Jesus. Amen.
00:09:19.02\00:09:20.66
And He will never, never,
never leave you nor forsake you
00:09:20.69\00:09:23.22
no matter what you're
going through at this moment.
00:09:23.26\00:09:25.79
I just wanna say that
'cause there's someone right now
00:09:25.83\00:09:28.03
that is at the
bottom of their rope,
00:09:28.06\00:09:30.53
and they're saying,
"Christmas, now really?
00:09:30.57\00:09:33.84
God, I don't even know
00:09:33.87\00:09:35.20
how to call your
name out right now."
00:09:35.24\00:09:36.74
But He says, "I will
never leave you or forsake you."
00:09:36.77\00:09:38.94
Yes. He really
wants you to come on.
00:09:38.97\00:09:40.31
He does.
00:09:40.34\00:09:41.68
And, you know, it's
not just what we have,
00:09:41.71\00:09:43.04
but it's who has us.
00:09:43.08\00:09:44.41
That's right.
00:09:44.45\00:09:45.78
I think we have to remember
00:09:45.81\00:09:47.15
that there's
nothing that happens.
00:09:47.18\00:09:48.52
We're in the hand of a
potter, we're still His clay.
00:09:48.55\00:09:50.49
He's still molding us.
00:09:50.52\00:09:51.85
So we may fall apart,
but we're in His hand.
00:09:51.89\00:09:54.06
We may leak, but
we're in His hand.
00:09:54.09\00:09:56.29
So it's not just
what is going through,
00:09:56.32\00:09:58.13
what we're going
through, but it's who has us.
00:09:58.16\00:09:59.89
And it may be clay,
00:09:59.93\00:10:01.33
but you are His
precious treasure.
00:10:01.36\00:10:03.26
That's right.
00:10:03.30\00:10:04.63
He loves you so
much. He made you.
00:10:04.67\00:10:06.67
And He's going
to be there for you.
00:10:06.70\00:10:08.04
So you know
what, you do have hope.
00:10:08.07\00:10:09.87
And we can celebrate Christmas
and we can be happy today.
00:10:09.90\00:10:13.17
And we can be... We can
cry, and we can call out to God,
00:10:13.21\00:10:16.58
and we can also have joy
00:10:16.61\00:10:18.21
in the midst of
anything you're going through.
00:10:18.25\00:10:19.98
So we're gonna have joy today.
00:10:20.02\00:10:21.45
We're gonna
have... Even in the midst.
00:10:21.48\00:10:23.39
Even if we're the
parents of 17-year-old.
00:10:23.42\00:10:24.75
That's right
00:10:24.79\00:10:26.12
You know,
00:10:26.15\00:10:27.49
so how old is your
daughter now, Celestine?
00:10:27.52\00:10:29.89
Nineteen. Nineteen, okay.
00:10:29.92\00:10:31.29
So teenagers are tough.
00:10:31.33\00:10:33.29
I didn't realize
how tough this was.
00:10:33.33\00:10:35.13
Oh, yes. I thought that, "Okay.
00:10:35.16\00:10:37.27
I can't wait them to
get big and everything."
00:10:37.30\00:10:40.30
And boy, they're so challenging.
00:10:40.34\00:10:43.51
Just think what our
folks went through. Right.
00:10:43.54\00:10:46.51
I can't even imagine.
00:10:46.54\00:10:48.48
We're not the first generation,
00:10:48.51\00:10:50.18
you know, our
folks went through...
00:10:50.21\00:10:51.91
I know mine did
with me for sure.
00:10:51.95\00:10:53.58
Oh, Danny, not you.
00:10:53.62\00:10:55.28
Oh, you're not an
instigator. I know you weren't.
00:10:55.32\00:10:57.72
No, not unless I get a chance.
00:10:57.75\00:10:59.62
Then you weren't turning
flips off the back of cars
00:10:59.65\00:11:01.89
or anything like that, were you?
00:11:01.92\00:11:03.26
I was, yeah. Yeah.
00:11:03.29\00:11:04.63
And didn't even worry the folks,
00:11:04.66\00:11:05.99
you know, I'm doing
backward flips off of cars
00:11:06.03\00:11:08.36
and climbing up
stairs on my hands
00:11:08.40\00:11:10.37
and they didn't worry about it.
00:11:10.40\00:11:11.97
Sometimes I think I'm
too protective over mine,
00:11:12.00\00:11:14.50
you know, Melody, she's little
00:11:14.54\00:11:15.87
and little
Trinity who is 19 now.
00:11:15.90\00:11:18.07
Not little anymore.
I'm so protective of them.
00:11:18.11\00:11:20.34
Back in day, it was
like, "Okay, just go for it.
00:11:20.38\00:11:22.14
Come back at... You know,
if you're outside playing,
00:11:22.18\00:11:24.21
come in before dark, you know,"
00:11:24.25\00:11:25.68
But that just, you know
what, it all worked out.
00:11:25.71\00:11:27.45
They didn't know to be
afraid. Yeah. Today we know it.
00:11:27.48\00:11:30.02
But, you know, I'm
just thinking about,
00:11:30.05\00:11:31.39
you know, our
children, our teenagers
00:11:31.42\00:11:33.46
and you were teared up
about that, thinking about that.
00:11:33.49\00:11:36.16
And Brett our son is 17.
00:11:36.19\00:11:39.16
And, you know,
he's trying to find,
00:11:39.19\00:11:41.53
you know, his way
independently from his parents,
00:11:41.56\00:11:45.20
you know, in so many ways.
00:11:45.23\00:11:47.17
And we love him so much.
00:11:47.20\00:11:50.21
You love your daughter,
your children so, so much.
00:11:50.24\00:11:53.14
We pour our lives into that.
00:11:53.17\00:11:55.78
That's our priority,
right? You pour your love.
00:11:55.81\00:11:58.65
And sometimes you feel like,
00:11:58.68\00:12:00.45
"I don't have any
more to pour into.
00:12:00.48\00:12:02.18
I'm literally at the end
of my rope. What do I do?
00:12:02.22\00:12:04.39
Because I'm not necessarily
getting the response back
00:12:04.42\00:12:07.56
that I think I
should at this moment."
00:12:07.59\00:12:10.13
And then I think about,
00:12:10.16\00:12:12.33
you know, how the
Lord is so faithful to us
00:12:12.36\00:12:16.50
'cause we're His children.
00:12:16.53\00:12:18.53
And I respond like a teenager.
00:12:18.57\00:12:22.64
There you go.
00:12:22.67\00:12:24.01
Think about how we
respond to Jesus so many times.
00:12:24.04\00:12:25.64
To Him so many times, but yet
00:12:25.67\00:12:28.84
He keeps being faithful
00:12:28.88\00:12:31.58
and loving through
my teenage years...
00:12:31.61\00:12:36.12
Not really, you know, let's
not even talk about ages, okay?
00:12:36.15\00:12:39.95
But so... But...
00:12:39.99\00:12:42.06
Sometimes we stay teenagers
with Jesus, with God, don't we?
00:12:42.09\00:12:44.73
Yeah, we do. Till we're 80.
00:12:44.76\00:12:46.09
Yeah, terrible truth.
Terrible truths, exactly.
00:12:46.13\00:12:50.07
We revert back to
it with Celestine,
00:12:50.10\00:12:51.67
be encouraged because...
00:12:51.70\00:12:53.03
That's right. The
Lord's got your back, girl.
00:12:53.07\00:12:54.87
Yes, yes. He's got your back.
00:12:54.90\00:12:56.24
I'm just so glad
that she's loving God
00:12:56.27\00:12:58.87
and she's trying so
hard and I'm so proud of her.
00:12:58.91\00:13:03.95
We are too,
Celestine. Thank you.
00:13:03.98\00:13:06.18
She's so talented.
00:13:06.21\00:13:07.62
Well, you know what,
00:13:07.65\00:13:08.98
I think we need to
hear from Tim Parton.
00:13:09.02\00:13:12.25
Okay.
00:13:12.29\00:13:13.69
And he's got a song for us.
00:13:13.72\00:13:15.56
And what would
you like to do, Tim?
00:13:15.59\00:13:17.03
I think I'm just
gonna play a couple.
00:13:17.06\00:13:18.39
Okay. This is...
00:13:18.43\00:13:19.89
Amen. All right.
00:15:01.96\00:15:03.67
Hey, Tim.
00:15:03.70\00:15:05.03
Wow. That's wonderful.
00:15:05.07\00:15:06.40
Beautiful. What
an incredible gift.
00:15:06.43\00:15:07.77
And that got us into
the spirit and got us happy.
00:15:07.80\00:15:09.14
But even if you
think about those lyrics,
00:15:09.17\00:15:10.51
they were exactly what
we were just talking about,
00:15:10.54\00:15:11.87
comfort and joy.
00:15:11.91\00:15:13.38
You're a piano player,
you're sitting there watching.
00:15:13.41\00:15:15.98
Does that amaze
you what he does?
00:15:16.01\00:15:17.41
He's amazing.
00:15:17.45\00:15:18.78
I'm telling you, you know,
00:15:18.81\00:15:20.15
I had the
opportunity to work in Nashville
00:15:20.18\00:15:22.32
with a lot of
wonderful, wonderful pianists.
00:15:22.35\00:15:24.29
I'm turning
tops right here, Tim.
00:15:24.32\00:15:26.89
And Timothy Wayne is
amazing. Timothy Wayne.
00:15:26.92\00:15:28.62
I called him Timothy Wayne.
I called him Timothy Wayne.
00:15:28.66\00:15:31.23
We're not even
sure that's his name.
00:15:31.26\00:15:32.59
My mother called me that.
00:15:32.63\00:15:33.96
Oh, it scared me,
but when Reggie calls it,
00:15:34.00\00:15:35.60
it's endearing for some reason.
00:15:35.63\00:15:37.33
It's endearing and
sends a shiver up his spine.
00:15:37.37\00:15:39.70
But, no, Danny, I'm...
Reggie has a way of doing that.
00:15:41.87\00:15:45.31
My daughter Melody,
from the time she was little,
00:15:45.34\00:15:49.51
you know, her mother
died when she was 11,
00:15:49.54\00:15:52.38
but nobody would call her Mel.
00:15:52.41\00:15:54.35
Melody. You do not call her Mel.
00:15:54.38\00:15:57.02
So after, of
course, her mother died,
00:15:57.05\00:15:58.75
Melody went
through teenage years,
00:15:58.79\00:16:00.66
nobody... 'Cause somebody said,
00:16:00.69\00:16:02.12
"Hey, Mel." She
said, "My name is Melody."
00:16:02.16\00:16:04.23
Reggie does it,
and it's endearing.
00:16:04.26\00:16:06.06
She loves it.
00:16:06.09\00:16:07.43
She said, "Reggie is the
only person in the world..."
00:16:07.46\00:16:09.40
Oh, I didn't know
that. He says, "Hey, Mel."
00:16:09.43\00:16:11.77
But here's what she
says. "I love it when Reggie...
00:16:11.80\00:16:14.24
He's the only person..."
I've never... I'm her daddy,
00:16:14.27\00:16:16.17
I wouldn't call her Mel.
00:16:16.20\00:16:17.54
She said when Reggie does
it, it's just so endearing.
00:16:17.57\00:16:19.67
It's so natural.
00:16:19.71\00:16:21.04
Reggie is
everybody's big brother.
00:16:21.08\00:16:22.41
That's what it is. He's
just like a big brother.
00:16:22.44\00:16:24.98
Reggie can do that.
00:16:25.01\00:16:26.35
I won't call you
Timothy Wayne though.
00:16:26.38\00:16:27.98
Okay, please
don't. please don't.
00:16:28.02\00:16:29.75
You know what I do wanna hear?
00:16:29.78\00:16:31.29
I wanna hear... No, do
you know what I wanna hear?
00:16:31.32\00:16:35.62
Do you hear what I hear?
00:16:35.66\00:16:37.63
I wanna hear John sing
"Do you hear what I hear?"
00:16:37.66\00:16:41.46
Okay. All right. All right.
00:16:41.50\00:16:42.83
Not only can he
preach, he can sing.
00:16:42.86\00:16:45.07
Yes. Praise the Lord.
00:16:45.10\00:16:46.53
You know why this
song is important to me
00:16:46.57\00:16:48.10
is because I've seen
so many things in life.
00:16:48.14\00:16:50.04
You know, when my wife and I
00:16:50.07\00:16:51.41
travel around
the world together,
00:16:51.44\00:16:52.77
we see different
things in different places.
00:16:52.81\00:16:54.48
We come back
home and we now become
00:16:54.51\00:16:56.51
a product of what we just
saw and what we just heard.
00:16:56.54\00:16:58.98
And this song talks about that.
00:16:59.01\00:17:00.72
We hear what the Lord
wants us to hear and we see
00:17:00.75\00:17:04.55
what the Lord wants us to see.
00:17:04.59\00:17:06.29
And this beautiful story is told
00:17:06.32\00:17:07.89
about that
little lamb who had...
00:17:07.92\00:17:10.66
He had a gift to
give to all of us,
00:17:10.69\00:17:12.49
but He said, "Do
you hear what I hear?"
00:17:12.53\00:17:14.66
So sit back and enjoy
00:17:14.70\00:17:16.03
the message of the
season of the Lamb Christ Jesus.
00:17:16.06\00:17:19.33
Said the night
wind to the little lamb
00:17:30.41\00:17:35.15
Do you see what I see?
00:17:36.32\00:17:41.19
Way up in the sky, little lamb
00:17:41.22\00:17:46.43
Do you see what I see?
00:17:46.46\00:17:51.10
A star, a star,
dancing in the night
00:17:51.13\00:17:56.24
With a tail as big as a kite
00:17:56.27\00:18:00.81
With a tail as big as a kite
00:18:00.84\00:18:05.88
Said the little
lamb to the shepherd boy
00:18:08.32\00:18:14.12
Do you hear what I hear?
00:18:14.16\00:18:18.93
Ringing through
the sky, shepherd boy
00:18:18.96\00:18:24.17
Do you hear what I hear?
00:18:24.20\00:18:29.00
A song, a song,
high above the trees
00:18:29.04\00:18:33.98
With a voice as big as the sea
00:18:34.01\00:18:38.71
With a voice as big as the sea
00:18:38.75\00:18:43.69
Said the shepherd
boy to the mighty king
00:18:46.22\00:18:52.06
Do you know what I know?
00:18:52.09\00:18:57.07
In your palace warm, mighty king
00:18:57.10\00:19:02.20
Do you know what I know?
00:19:02.24\00:19:06.78
A Child, a Child
shivers in the cold
00:19:06.81\00:19:11.78
Let us bring Him silver and gold
00:19:11.81\00:19:16.55
Let us bring Him silver and gold
00:19:16.58\00:19:21.19
Said the king to
the people everywhere
00:19:26.70\00:19:32.33
Listen to what I say!
00:19:32.37\00:19:36.04
Pray for peace,
people everywhere!
00:19:37.31\00:19:42.24
Just listen to what I say!
00:19:42.28\00:19:47.22
The Child, the
Child, sleeping in the night
00:19:47.25\00:19:52.15
He will bring us
goodness and light
00:19:52.19\00:19:57.09
He will bring us
goodness and light
00:19:57.13\00:20:04.07
Yes, he will. Yes. Amen.
00:20:13.44\00:20:15.51
Beautiful.
00:20:15.54\00:20:16.88
He will bring us
goodness and light.
00:20:16.91\00:20:18.75
He brought us
goodness and light.
00:20:18.78\00:20:20.65
Can you imagine what it was like
00:20:20.68\00:20:22.98
when that Baby Jesus was born?
00:20:23.02\00:20:25.02
I mean, it was an ordinary
day for most people, right?
00:20:25.05\00:20:27.72
They had no idea that
this was the Christ King.
00:20:27.76\00:20:30.83
So what child...
00:20:30.86\00:20:32.19
When this Little Child came...
00:20:32.23\00:20:33.86
Celestine, sing
for us about that baby.
00:20:33.90\00:20:37.13
What Child is this
00:21:02.09\00:21:06.19
Who laid to rest
00:21:06.23\00:21:10.17
On Mary's lap is sleeping?
00:21:10.20\00:21:17.14
Whom angels greet
with anthems sweet
00:21:17.17\00:21:24.05
While shepherds
watch are keeping?
00:21:24.08\00:21:29.65
This, this is Christ the King
00:21:31.15\00:21:36.96
Whom shepherds
guard and angels sing
00:21:36.99\00:21:43.47
Haste, haste to bring Him
00:21:43.50\00:21:47.80
Laud The Babe,
00:21:47.84\00:21:50.71
the Son of Mary
00:21:50.74\00:21:55.14
Why lies He in such mean estate
00:21:57.51\00:22:03.49
Where ox and ass are feeding?
00:22:03.52\00:22:08.99
Good Christian,
fear, for sinners here
00:22:09.02\00:22:14.76
The silent Word is pleading
00:22:14.80\00:22:20.50
This, this is Christ the King
00:22:20.54\00:22:25.94
Whom shepherds
guard and angels sing
00:22:25.97\00:22:31.85
Haste, haste to
bring Him laud The Babe,
00:22:31.88\00:22:38.59
the Son of Mary
00:22:38.62\00:22:43.86
So bring Him
incense, gold, and myrrh
00:22:56.91\00:23:02.84
Come peasant, king to own Him
00:23:02.88\00:23:08.58
The King of
kings salvation brings
00:23:08.62\00:23:14.39
Let loving hearts enthrone Him
00:23:14.42\00:23:20.83
Raise, raise a song on high
00:23:22.76\00:23:28.34
His mother sings her lullaby
00:23:28.37\00:23:33.94
Joy, joy for
Christ is born The Babe,
00:23:33.98\00:23:40.58
the Son of Mary
00:23:40.62\00:23:47.59
This, this is Christ the King
00:23:47.62\00:23:52.96
Shepherds guard and angels sing
00:23:52.99\00:23:58.37
Haste, haste to
bring Him laud The Babe,
00:23:58.40\00:24:05.31
The Son of Mary
00:24:06.54\00:24:12.81
Amen. Thank you.
00:24:19.49\00:24:20.82
I hope you don't
mind we couldn't stand it.
00:24:22.46\00:24:24.69
We had to just chime
in right there with you.
00:24:24.73\00:24:26.59
That was beautiful.
00:24:27.70\00:24:29.03
And, you know,
there's another song,
00:24:29.06\00:24:31.17
an older song
that when I was little,
00:24:31.20\00:24:34.94
every Christmas
Eve, we had a service
00:24:34.97\00:24:37.31
and my dad would
play this on the mandolin.
00:24:37.34\00:24:39.34
And I heard Tim and I
heard Yvonne backstage
00:24:39.37\00:24:42.74
just for the first time
I think listening to it.
00:24:42.78\00:24:44.78
Yeah, yeah, my
first time singing it.
00:24:44.81\00:24:47.08
And she's never
sung it, but guess what,
00:24:47.12\00:24:49.05
you are going to do it, Yvonne.
00:24:49.08\00:24:50.69
That never
stopped us, did it not?
00:24:50.72\00:24:52.09
No, that's true. That is true.
00:24:52.12\00:24:53.92
Let me tell you,
Yvonne, I know everyone
00:24:53.96\00:24:56.39
that watches 3ABN knows
what an amazing singer you are,
00:24:56.42\00:24:59.13
but I hope they know what
an amazing person you are.
00:24:59.16\00:25:02.33
Aw, praise the Lord.
And you have the best heart.
00:25:02.36\00:25:04.80
You see God, you see
His love all in your face.
00:25:04.83\00:25:07.47
And you've done so
many amazing things
00:25:07.50\00:25:09.70
in your life that, you know,
00:25:09.74\00:25:11.77
if you wanted to go
by the world standards,
00:25:11.81\00:25:14.21
you could just totally
think of yourself so highly
00:25:14.24\00:25:18.55
and call
yourself a third person.
00:25:18.58\00:25:21.08
Oh, my goodness.
00:25:21.12\00:25:23.35
Something stars
do that are so crazy
00:25:23.39\00:25:25.79
and talk about themselves
as if they were someone else
00:25:25.82\00:25:28.19
or their alter
name, but not Yvonne.
00:25:28.22\00:25:30.56
She's such a woman
of God. Praise the Lord.
00:25:30.59\00:25:32.93
And that's the
whole idea of this song.
00:25:32.96\00:25:34.53
It's just to talk
about how the Lord is so good
00:25:34.56\00:25:40.04
and how we just love Him.
00:25:40.07\00:25:42.00
Yes. How can we not love Him?
00:25:42.04\00:25:44.61
He's so good to us.
00:25:44.64\00:25:46.44
So He came, He left glory.
00:25:46.47\00:25:50.35
I mean, when you think
about what He left to come here,
00:25:50.38\00:25:54.98
so how can we not love Him?
00:25:55.02\00:25:56.75
So this song is an offering
to God to say thank You, Lord,
00:25:56.79\00:26:01.56
for coming down
because we love You so much.
00:26:01.59\00:26:04.79
And I love you guys too.
00:26:04.83\00:26:06.16
Down from His glory
00:26:14.84\00:26:21.74
Ever living story
00:26:21.78\00:26:27.62
My God and Savior came
00:26:27.65\00:26:33.36
And Jesus was His name
00:26:33.39\00:26:38.66
Born in a manger
00:26:38.69\00:26:44.33
To His own a stranger
00:26:44.37\00:26:50.61
A Man of sorrows,
00:26:50.64\00:26:55.21
Tears, and agony
00:26:55.24\00:27:00.02
O how I love Him
00:27:03.92\00:27:10.19
How I adore Him
00:27:10.23\00:27:15.56
My breath, my sunshine,
00:27:15.60\00:27:20.97
My all in all
00:27:21.00\00:27:26.11
The Great Creator
00:27:26.14\00:27:30.81
Became my Savior
00:27:30.85\00:27:36.62
And all God's fullness
00:27:36.65\00:27:42.69
Dwelleth in Him
00:27:42.72\00:27:47.40
What condescension
00:27:54.84\00:27:59.31
Bringing us redemption
00:28:00.64\00:28:05.21
That in the dead of night
00:28:06.38\00:28:11.39
Not one faint hope in sight
00:28:12.69\00:28:18.19
God, gracious, tender
00:28:18.23\00:28:23.97
Laid aside His splendor
00:28:24.00\00:28:29.74
Stooping to woo, to win,
00:28:29.77\00:28:34.94
To save my soul
00:28:34.98\00:28:40.25
O how I love Him
00:28:42.42\00:28:48.82
How I adore Him
00:28:48.86\00:28:54.20
My breath, my sunshine,
00:28:54.23\00:28:59.57
My all in all
00:28:59.60\00:29:04.47
The Great Creator
00:29:04.51\00:29:09.91
Became my Savior
00:29:09.94\00:29:16.22
And all God's fullness
00:29:16.25\00:29:22.26
Dwelleth in Him Beautiful.
00:29:22.29\00:29:27.66
Beautiful. Gorgeous.
00:29:40.14\00:29:42.58
Oh, my goodness, Yvonne.
00:29:42.61\00:29:44.61
That was just beautiful.
00:29:44.65\00:29:46.82
Yvonne, do you realize
what the Lord has given you?
00:29:46.85\00:29:50.89
What the Lord has given us.
00:29:50.92\00:29:53.12
Oh, amazing...
00:29:53.15\00:29:55.06
She can't take a
compliment. I guess that's good.
00:29:55.09\00:29:58.63
You just sidestepped us.
00:29:58.66\00:30:00.70
You know what, but
that was just beautiful.
00:30:00.73\00:30:02.30
And you know what,
you've sung a lot of big hits
00:30:02.33\00:30:06.77
and a lot of
things through the years.
00:30:06.80\00:30:08.34
Yes.
00:30:08.37\00:30:09.70
And the Lord has
used you not just,
00:30:09.74\00:30:12.91
you know, on this television
that work but he's used you
00:30:12.94\00:30:17.58
in the world too.
00:30:17.61\00:30:19.25
You were in the world but
not necessarily of the world.
00:30:19.28\00:30:21.58
Praise the
Lord. Yes. Yeah. Yeah.
00:30:21.62\00:30:24.05
Not of the world.
00:30:24.09\00:30:25.55
But he's using you
00:30:25.59\00:30:26.92
in such a mighty
way all over the world.
00:30:26.96\00:30:30.16
Now...
00:30:30.19\00:30:31.66
It's such a privilege
00:30:31.69\00:30:33.40
and I know you all share this,
you know, we are in ministry,
00:30:33.43\00:30:37.80
and what a privilege it is to,
you know, use our gifts for God
00:30:37.83\00:30:42.50
instead of just like
singing about mundane things
00:30:42.54\00:30:46.11
like toilet
tissue, you know, but...
00:30:46.14\00:30:49.64
Have you sung
about toilet tissue?
00:30:49.68\00:30:51.58
I have. And I just...
00:30:51.61\00:30:52.95
Which is necessary.
00:30:52.98\00:30:54.32
Which is
necessary. It's necessary.
00:30:54.35\00:30:56.25
Is it one better than the other
00:30:56.28\00:30:57.62
or just they paid
better so you went...
00:30:57.65\00:30:59.45
I only do one. I
get offered that.
00:30:59.49\00:31:02.26
But it is such a
blessing and a gift from God
00:31:02.29\00:31:05.69
to be able to serve Him
with the gifts He's given us.
00:31:05.73\00:31:09.13
And it makes all the difference
because this helps people
00:31:09.16\00:31:13.60
to find Him.
00:31:13.64\00:31:14.97
It's something that
is used for eternity,
00:31:15.00\00:31:18.04
not just for the here and now.
00:31:18.07\00:31:20.54
And so it is such a
privilege to be able to be
00:31:20.58\00:31:22.71
in ministry and with
all of you in ministry,
00:31:22.74\00:31:26.11
I'm just so honored to
be with you and ministry.
00:31:26.15\00:31:29.48
And speaking of
incredible talent
00:31:29.52\00:31:31.59
and they also can't
take a compliment...
00:31:31.62\00:31:33.99
Yes.
00:31:34.02\00:31:35.36
But we haven't heard Ladye Love.
00:31:35.39\00:31:36.73
I wanna hear you sing. Yes.
00:31:36.76\00:31:38.09
"I Heard the Bells on
Christmas Day" with you.
00:31:38.13\00:31:40.50
That will be good.
Oh, yeah, I like that.
00:31:40.53\00:31:41.96
Another brand new one.
00:31:42.00\00:31:43.50
Oh, yeah,
absolutely, incredible gift
00:31:43.53\00:31:46.23
and I'm glad you all
are on God's side for sure.
00:31:46.27\00:31:49.04
You can do a lot of damage
if you're on the devil's side.
00:31:49.07\00:31:51.21
Yes, indeed. Praise the Lord.
00:31:51.24\00:31:52.81
You're on God's side.
00:31:52.84\00:31:54.18
You know, that's
what it's all about.
00:31:54.21\00:31:56.31
I mean,
honestly, I'm so grateful
00:31:56.34\00:31:58.78
that I was reared...
00:31:58.81\00:32:00.28
Yeah.
00:32:00.32\00:32:01.65
With a family, faithful
family, Christian family,
00:32:01.68\00:32:05.29
my mom and dad, you know,
00:32:05.32\00:32:06.89
thinking about
Christmas right now
00:32:06.92\00:32:08.26
and I know Ladye is
gonna sing this song
00:32:08.29\00:32:09.62
"Heard the Bells" but my
mom just came through a surgery.
00:32:09.66\00:32:13.93
And it was a knee replacement,
00:32:13.96\00:32:16.23
you know, just
something new every day,
00:32:16.26\00:32:17.77
but she...
00:32:17.80\00:32:21.07
Had complications.
Had complications.
00:32:21.10\00:32:23.51
And pneumonia and
then a kidney failure
00:32:23.54\00:32:26.81
on the back end of
that and at same time,
00:32:26.84\00:32:30.48
so but now I have to
report she's doing great.
00:32:30.51\00:32:33.85
Oh, praise God. Hey,
mom, if you're watching.
00:32:33.88\00:32:36.85
Hey, mom.
00:32:36.89\00:32:38.22
And she is watching
right now and dad too.
00:32:38.25\00:32:40.26
Great mom and dad.
Hey, dad. Great mom and dad.
00:32:40.29\00:32:41.99
But you met them, but they,
00:32:42.02\00:32:43.46
of course, love you too so much.
00:32:43.49\00:32:44.83
But, you know what,
thinking about this Christmas
00:32:44.86\00:32:47.33
and get to go home
and spend some time
00:32:47.36\00:32:49.46
with mom and daddy and
eat those peas and cornbread.
00:32:49.50\00:32:52.10
I mean, that
would... Peas and cornbread.
00:32:52.13\00:32:54.67
You're about to make
me break all the rhythm
00:32:54.70\00:32:58.01
and see if Tim
could hear a chord
00:32:58.04\00:32:59.64
and find a key for Ladye,
00:32:59.67\00:33:01.18
"I'll you all be
home for Christmas"
00:33:01.21\00:33:02.71
you just said. "I'll
be home for Christmas."
00:33:02.74\00:33:05.05
You want... Let's try.
00:33:05.08\00:33:06.41
Can we try that,
little bit of that?
00:33:06.45\00:33:07.78
Yeah, you guys do that.
00:33:07.82\00:33:09.15
You just wanna
start? Here we go.
00:33:09.18\00:33:12.15
I'll be home
00:33:14.22\00:33:20.20
For Christmas
00:33:20.23\00:33:23.13
You can plan on me
00:33:25.83\00:33:32.74
I'll be right
there with you, baby.
00:33:32.77\00:33:34.84
Please have snow
00:33:36.24\00:33:39.61
And mistletoe
00:33:39.65\00:33:44.69
And presents
00:33:44.72\00:33:47.89
Under the tree
00:33:47.92\00:33:54.83
Christmas eve
00:33:54.86\00:33:59.73
Will find me
00:33:59.77\00:34:05.07
Where the love light
00:34:05.11\00:34:10.38
Gleams
00:34:10.41\00:34:14.88
I'll be home
00:34:14.92\00:34:19.25
For Christmas
00:34:19.29\00:34:24.39
If only
00:34:24.43\00:34:27.76
Only
00:34:27.80\00:34:29.86
In my dreams
00:34:29.90\00:34:35.07
If only
00:34:35.10\00:34:41.94
In my dreams
00:34:41.98\00:34:47.62
Okay, we're going home now.
00:34:53.46\00:34:56.42
Was that silky or what?
00:34:56.46\00:34:58.66
Danny, did you...
00:34:58.69\00:35:00.03
Liquid silk.
00:35:00.06\00:35:01.86
You set it up.
00:35:01.90\00:35:04.03
You know, you set up
the home for Christmas.
00:35:04.07\00:35:05.83
I did. Thank you.
00:35:05.87\00:35:07.30
Talking about the
folks, Mom and Dad.
00:35:07.34\00:35:08.67
Oh, my goodness.
That was so beautiful.
00:35:08.70\00:35:10.04
Wonderful.
00:35:10.07\00:35:11.41
But she still doesn't
get out of your other songs.
00:35:11.44\00:35:12.87
That's right.
00:35:12.91\00:35:14.24
Sing a little bit of the...
00:35:14.28\00:35:15.61
This is a brand new
song, but the words are...
00:35:15.64\00:35:17.98
Brand new to
you. Brand new to me.
00:35:18.01\00:35:19.61
It's an old song.
That's right, Tim.
00:35:19.65\00:35:21.28
That's right, Tim.
00:35:21.32\00:35:23.39
But listen to these words.
00:35:23.42\00:35:24.79
"I Heard the Bells."
00:35:24.82\00:35:26.15
It tells a beautiful story.
00:35:26.19\00:35:27.76
I heard the
bells on Christmas day
00:35:36.20\00:35:42.57
Their old familiar carols play
00:35:42.60\00:35:48.94
And mild and
sweet their songs repeat
00:35:48.98\00:35:55.62
Of peace on
earth good will to men
00:35:55.65\00:36:02.19
And in despair I bowed my head
00:36:06.76\00:36:13.54
There is no
peace on earth I said
00:36:13.57\00:36:19.77
For hate is
strong and mocks the song
00:36:19.81\00:36:26.38
Of peace on
earth, good will to men
00:36:26.41\00:36:33.05
Then rang the
bells more loud and deep
00:36:40.53\00:36:46.53
God is not dead,
nor does he sleep
00:36:46.57\00:36:52.61
The wrong shall
fail, the right prevail
00:36:52.64\00:36:58.91
With peace on
earth, good will to men
00:36:58.95\00:37:05.25
Then ringing singing on its way
00:37:09.39\00:37:17.00
The world
revolved from night to day
00:37:17.03\00:37:22.90
A voice, a
chime, a chant sublime
00:37:22.94\00:37:29.64
Of peace on earth,
00:37:29.68\00:37:34.42
Good will to men
00:37:34.45\00:37:40.09
That's our prayer,
isn't it? Praise the Lord.
00:37:44.36\00:37:46.80
We're having church, aren't we?
00:37:46.83\00:37:48.20
We are having church.
00:37:48.23\00:37:49.56
Yes, indeed. It's a great song.
00:37:49.60\00:37:52.37
It's just to thank
that I get to hear her
00:37:52.40\00:37:54.00
sing on Christmas day.
00:37:54.04\00:37:55.90
Christmas day, I get to hear...
00:37:55.94\00:37:57.27
It didn't sound quite like that.
00:37:57.31\00:37:58.64
People think, "Oh,
you're going on singing..."
00:37:58.67\00:38:00.31
And we're like, "Stop
singing." Stop singing.
00:38:00.34\00:38:04.25
You know, listen when we
travel with them in restaurants
00:38:04.28\00:38:07.75
or anywhere else,
if something strikes,
00:38:07.78\00:38:10.29
we all start singing.
00:38:10.32\00:38:11.65
That's right. No matter what...
00:38:11.69\00:38:13.25
Well, I don't
because I play the piano.
00:38:13.29\00:38:15.52
And there's never a
piano in a restaurant.
00:38:15.56\00:38:16.99
So I'm over there like...
You're over there singing.
00:38:17.03\00:38:18.66
No, that's where
you the grab some spoons
00:38:18.69\00:38:20.96
and play with spoons.
00:38:21.00\00:38:22.33
Do you remember?
00:38:22.36\00:38:23.70
Remember, we
were going to Russia
00:38:23.73\00:38:25.13
and we had our little group
back there on a train one time.
00:38:25.17\00:38:27.60
And they shut us
all that they were like,
00:38:27.64\00:38:29.44
"Be quiet, you're too loud."
00:38:29.47\00:38:31.24
So we said, "What's wrong?
00:38:31.27\00:38:32.64
We're just having some,
you know, our normal sound."
00:38:32.67\00:38:35.24
But the Russians,
they didn't appreciate it.
00:38:35.28\00:38:36.81
Like they were more
stoic and we're like laughing
00:38:36.85\00:38:39.21
and finally
conductor comes and says
00:38:39.25\00:38:40.95
through the translator,
00:38:40.98\00:38:42.32
"You Americans have to
be quiet, you're too loud."
00:38:42.35\00:38:44.79
So, well, we sing and
we talk and we do whatever.
00:38:44.82\00:38:48.59
We're laughing.
00:38:48.62\00:38:50.03
So you see him here
singing and everybody here,
00:38:50.06\00:38:52.96
we all sing everywhere else too.
00:38:52.99\00:38:54.60
We were having fun
in the sleeping car.
00:38:54.63\00:38:56.83
That was it. That was it.
00:38:56.87\00:38:58.67
I didn't know it
was a sleeping car.
00:38:58.70\00:39:01.60
That's probably
why I was so bad.
00:39:01.64\00:39:03.07
Know when to sing and
when not to sing, right?
00:39:03.10\00:39:04.71
But we were in eight
hours difference or something.
00:39:04.74\00:39:07.08
So we weren't sleeping.
00:39:07.11\00:39:08.44
Then I said, you know
what, at Christmas and at home,
00:39:08.48\00:39:10.68
we say don't sing and
not all the time we do that,
00:39:10.71\00:39:13.35
sometimes we do that.
00:39:13.38\00:39:14.72
Most of the time.
But you know what?
00:39:14.75\00:39:16.08
I do like to
hear you sing. Really?
00:39:16.12\00:39:17.45
Yeah, and I love
"Sweet Little Jesus Boy."
00:39:17.49\00:39:20.82
Would you sing that for us?
00:39:20.86\00:39:22.62
I will. Yes, sure.
00:39:22.66\00:39:25.76
Tim will play. What
key you got in mind?
00:39:25.79\00:39:27.46
I have no one of them.
00:39:27.50\00:39:28.83
Okay, just start
singing. I'll find it.
00:39:28.86\00:39:31.60
Get in D and we'll get started.
00:39:31.63\00:39:33.77
Try F.
00:39:42.78\00:39:44.28
Sweet little Jesus boy
00:39:47.45\00:39:53.42
They made you
be born in a manger
00:39:53.46\00:40:00.13
Sweet little holy child
00:40:00.16\00:40:05.90
Didn't know who you was
00:40:05.93\00:40:11.81
Didn't know you'd
come to save us, Lord
00:40:11.84\00:40:18.01
To take our sins all away
00:40:18.05\00:40:22.92
Our eyes was blind
00:40:22.95\00:40:27.79
And we could not see
00:40:27.82\00:40:33.63
And we didn't know who you was
00:40:33.66\00:40:38.63
Long time ago
00:40:41.84\00:40:47.31
You was born
00:40:47.34\00:40:52.45
Born in a manger, Lord
00:40:52.48\00:40:58.05
Sweet little Jesus boy
00:40:58.09\00:41:03.59
The world treat me mean, Lord
00:41:03.63\00:41:09.46
Treat me mean too
00:41:09.50\00:41:14.60
But please, Sir
00:41:14.64\00:41:19.47
Forgive us, Lord
00:41:19.51\00:41:26.61
And we didn't know it was You
00:41:26.65\00:41:32.15
Sweet little Jesus boy
00:41:35.19\00:41:41.46
Born a long ago
00:41:41.50\00:41:46.33
Sweet little holy child
00:41:46.37\00:41:52.24
And we didn't know who you was
00:41:52.27\00:41:58.01
Amen.
00:42:11.66\00:42:12.99
Beautiful. Beautiful.
00:42:13.03\00:42:14.36
And Reggie and
Ladye were talking
00:42:14.40\00:42:15.73
about you being humble.
00:42:15.76\00:42:17.10
I think Reggie just recently,
where did you get a Dove Award?
00:42:17.13\00:42:21.20
Maybe more than
that... Oh, my goodness...
00:42:21.24\00:42:23.00
You probably got more Grammys
and Doves than we can count.
00:42:23.04\00:42:25.37
No, no, no, not at all.
00:42:25.41\00:42:26.74
Actually the Gaither Vocal Band,
00:42:26.78\00:42:28.84
one artist Southern
gospel artist of the year,
00:42:28.88\00:42:32.58
which was a
wonderful award that...
00:42:32.61\00:42:35.08
Now do you each get a Dove
or do you have to share it?
00:42:35.12\00:42:37.75
We each get a bird.
00:42:37.79\00:42:39.12
You each get
one? We each get one.
00:42:39.15\00:42:40.79
That's good.
00:42:40.82\00:42:42.86
No fight and all
that. No, no, no, no.
00:42:42.89\00:42:44.86
We each get a bird
and then so that's so nice
00:42:44.89\00:42:47.80
and so we won the one last year.
00:42:47.83\00:42:51.83
What a great
accomplishment. Yeah.
00:42:51.87\00:42:53.90
I mean, like we talked
about, you know, Bill Gaither,
00:42:53.94\00:42:57.61
what he's done for
gospel music is been amazing
00:42:57.64\00:43:00.51
and to get the
gospel to the world,
00:43:00.54\00:43:03.08
being able to put together
groups like a vocal band
00:43:03.11\00:43:06.05
and bring all
the family gathering,
00:43:06.08\00:43:08.22
homecomings together so
that people that no matter
00:43:08.25\00:43:11.15
where they are around the world,
00:43:11.19\00:43:12.72
we travel to other
countries and people are like,
00:43:12.75\00:43:15.06
"I see Reggie and
Ladye on the Gaithers."
00:43:15.09\00:43:16.62
And, you know, what
an impact to, you know,
00:43:16.66\00:43:20.76
you're traveling
with him day and night,
00:43:20.80\00:43:22.53
man's 80 plus
years old and Reggie says
00:43:22.56\00:43:24.93
he's about to
wear these boys out.
00:43:24.97\00:43:26.43
Boys out...
00:43:26.47\00:43:27.80
Danny only walks
12,000 steps a day.
00:43:27.84\00:43:29.67
Twelve thousand steps a
day, what an amazing individual.
00:43:29.70\00:43:32.81
And praise the Lord for
people like Mr. Bill Gaither
00:43:32.84\00:43:36.01
for what he does.
00:43:36.04\00:43:37.38
And so thankful that
you're a part of that
00:43:37.41\00:43:39.18
and the vocal band.
00:43:39.21\00:43:40.55
Love hearing you guys sing.
00:43:40.58\00:43:41.92
It still makes
time for us. Yeah.
00:43:41.95\00:43:44.09
Let me just say praise the
Lord for people like you too
00:43:44.12\00:43:46.89
and 3ABN because this
message goes worldwide.
00:43:46.92\00:43:50.56
This message you
take it to places
00:43:50.59\00:43:52.39
that it would never be
00:43:52.43\00:43:53.93
and we go places and
people that was from 3ABN
00:43:53.96\00:43:56.30
and everywhere we go to...
00:43:56.33\00:43:57.67
I know it is for
you as well, right?
00:43:57.70\00:43:59.03
Matter of fact,
yesterday, we were in Georgia.
00:43:59.07\00:44:03.47
Todd Suttles'
father had passed away.
00:44:03.51\00:44:06.11
We were at the
memorial, funeral service there.
00:44:06.14\00:44:09.34
And several ladies came
in and gentlemen came to us
00:44:09.38\00:44:13.01
and said, "We watch
you all the time on 3ABN."
00:44:13.05\00:44:16.42
We watch you.
00:44:16.45\00:44:17.79
So it's out
there, it get out there.
00:44:17.82\00:44:19.49
That was in rural
Georgia, small town.
00:44:19.52\00:44:20.96
Rural Georgia.
Yeah. So beautiful.
00:44:20.99\00:44:23.63
And we're just
honored to be able
00:44:23.66\00:44:24.99
to be here with you, Danny.
00:44:25.03\00:44:27.40
You know, I tell
people all the time.
00:44:27.43\00:44:29.86
A lot of people, you
know, say we've seen you on 3ABN
00:44:29.90\00:44:33.13
and I say, "Well, I'll
let Danny know that..."
00:44:33.17\00:44:36.34
I'll try to let Danny know
that we saw you and you said
00:44:36.37\00:44:40.04
you're watching."
00:44:40.08\00:44:41.41
And I tell them
every time, I said,
00:44:41.44\00:44:44.25
"Yes, Danny and
I, we all have fun
00:44:44.28\00:44:46.25
and Yvonne and
Ladye or the four of us
00:44:46.28\00:44:47.88
have a great time and
of course John and Angie."
00:44:47.92\00:44:51.72
But Tim and Celestine of course,
00:44:51.75\00:44:54.76
and all the
camera people, you know,
00:44:54.79\00:44:57.86
and the sound technicians...
00:44:57.89\00:44:59.23
No, but...
00:44:59.26\00:45:00.80
You know, Danny, I tell them
00:45:00.83\00:45:03.77
that you're one of my
best buddies in the world
00:45:03.80\00:45:06.57
and I feel that
same way for you.
00:45:06.60\00:45:09.57
I feel like if I got in a
spot that you have my back
00:45:09.60\00:45:14.71
and I have yours and I
tell people all over the world,
00:45:14.74\00:45:17.58
but we're
buddies off the camera.
00:45:17.61\00:45:20.22
As much as
we're off the cameras,
00:45:20.25\00:45:21.65
we are on the camera.
00:45:21.68\00:45:23.02
And, you know, we
have fun on the camera...
00:45:23.05\00:45:24.69
We're all
together in kinds of stuff,
00:45:24.72\00:45:26.05
jump off of the blue
hole, clear up together.
00:45:26.09\00:45:27.56
Jump off the blue hole together.
00:45:27.59\00:45:28.92
All kinds of stuff.
00:45:28.96\00:45:30.29
And he loves to get
me on the ping pong table
00:45:30.33\00:45:32.43
and just whacks me, you know?
00:45:32.46\00:45:34.53
And of course, shooting
around the hall, you know?
00:45:34.56\00:45:36.36
Let me say this, you
know, in Christmas tour,
00:45:36.40\00:45:38.90
oh, not the Christmas
tour, the regular tour,
00:45:38.93\00:45:40.50
the Gaither tour,
reggie walks on his hands.
00:45:40.54\00:45:42.67
Now that's hilarious, right?
00:45:42.70\00:45:44.11
He comes on second half walking,
00:45:44.14\00:45:45.47
but guess where he
probably learned that
00:45:45.51\00:45:47.28
not only from his
dad but from Danny.
00:45:47.31\00:45:48.71
My dad and Danny because
he knew that and I remember
00:45:48.74\00:45:52.95
when we were in Australia
00:45:52.98\00:45:54.32
several years
ago and Brett was...
00:45:54.35\00:45:55.68
Our son was younger.
00:45:55.72\00:45:57.05
And you were
walking on your hands
00:45:57.09\00:45:58.69
and he was just
taking with Mr. Danny.
00:45:58.72\00:46:01.06
"So he can do anything, daddy.
00:46:01.09\00:46:03.93
He can do
anything and do it well."
00:46:03.96\00:46:06.09
But, Danny, all I'm saying is
thank you guys for allowing us
00:46:06.13\00:46:09.90
to be part of your ministry.
00:46:09.93\00:46:11.47
And we don't take it lightly.
00:46:11.50\00:46:13.40
We don't.
00:46:13.44\00:46:14.94
It's a great family
and it's great family
00:46:14.97\00:46:16.87
that we have with you.
00:46:16.91\00:46:18.51
Without you, we'd be
sitting here by ourselves
00:46:18.54\00:46:20.71
and none of this would be
00:46:20.74\00:46:22.11
getting to
those around the world
00:46:22.14\00:46:23.98
who really need not
only this time of year
00:46:24.01\00:46:27.05
but need to hear the gospel,
00:46:27.08\00:46:28.95
all literally around the
world and 24/7, I'm so thankful
00:46:28.98\00:46:34.09
for Jesus Christ and
His great plan of salvation
00:46:34.12\00:46:38.29
that He loved us enough
to come down to this earth
00:46:38.33\00:46:41.93
and to dwell among us.
00:46:41.96\00:46:44.13
There's a song that says
"There's No Place Like Home."
00:46:44.17\00:46:48.00
And maybe we could
just try that together.
00:46:48.04\00:46:50.07
We've never
really sang it together,
00:46:50.11\00:46:52.11
but if you all
will take the verses...
00:46:52.14\00:46:53.51
You all need to stop
giving away our secrets.
00:46:53.54\00:46:56.85
Okay.
00:46:56.88\00:46:58.21
When the soft snow is falling
00:47:08.82\00:47:15.06
Each roof becomes a dome
00:47:15.10\00:47:21.27
Then you'll hear
your heart calling
00:47:21.30\00:47:27.71
There's just no place like home
00:47:27.74\00:47:34.58
There's no place like home
00:47:34.62\00:47:41.52
That's when you must believe
00:47:41.56\00:47:47.30
There's no place like home
00:47:47.33\00:47:53.74
I'm longing to be there
00:47:53.77\00:47:59.34
And the meadows gleam neatly
00:48:05.91\00:48:12.19
As though brushed by a comb
00:48:12.22\00:48:17.93
And the night bird sings sweetly
00:48:17.96\00:48:24.17
There's just no place like home
00:48:24.20\00:48:29.60
And there's no place like home
00:48:29.64\00:48:37.45
The song will sweetly say
00:48:37.48\00:48:42.48
There's no place like home
00:48:42.52\00:48:50.46
I'm longing to be there
00:48:50.49\00:48:55.53
And though
blessing they find you
00:49:04.01\00:49:11.11
Wherever you may roam
00:49:11.15\00:49:17.89
With your loved
ones all around you
00:49:17.92\00:49:23.89
There's just no place like home
00:49:23.93\00:49:29.83
There's no place like home
00:49:29.86\00:49:37.31
That's when you must believe
00:49:37.34\00:49:42.08
There's no place like home
00:49:42.11\00:49:49.15
I'm longing to be there
00:49:49.18\00:49:55.36
There's no place like home
00:49:55.39\00:50:02.56
That's when you must believe
00:50:02.60\00:50:07.67
There's no place like home
00:50:07.70\00:50:14.58
And I'm longing to
00:50:14.61\00:50:21.38
Be there
00:50:21.42\00:50:24.75
Okay.
00:50:24.79\00:50:26.35
Amen. Beautiful.
00:50:30.43\00:50:34.26
Oh, nice harmony,
almost making I wanna quit.
00:50:34.30\00:50:38.47
All right, what we're
gonna do now, Ladye Love,
00:50:38.50\00:50:40.60
we got about few minutes left.
00:50:40.64\00:50:42.80
Let's do a fun song. All right.
00:50:42.84\00:50:44.31
How about that? Let's do...
00:50:44.34\00:50:45.67
Do we know that?
00:50:45.71\00:50:47.91
That's the funny part.
00:50:47.94\00:50:49.28
It'll be fun if we know it.
00:50:49.31\00:50:50.65
That's the fun part.
Let's do "They Rejoiced."
00:50:50.68\00:50:53.18
Yeah, with
exceedingly great joy.
00:50:53.21\00:50:55.72
"They Rejoiced."
00:50:55.75\00:50:57.09
Talking about
shepherds and the wise men...
00:50:57.12\00:50:58.59
Oh, yeah. Let's sing.
00:50:58.62\00:51:01.02
Over mountains and
valleys it led than each night
00:51:07.80\00:51:13.74
A star of most radiant light
00:51:13.77\00:51:18.97
The wise men rejoiced
as they journeyed afar
00:51:19.01\00:51:24.01
To behold such a beautiful star
00:51:24.05\00:51:30.19
When they saw the star
00:51:30.22\00:51:32.32

They rejoiced with
exceeding great joy
00:52:07.59\00:52:13.33
Others saw the star
but they followed it not
00:52:13.36\00:52:18.63
To them it would
come and would pass
00:52:18.67\00:52:24.14
The wise men kept trusting
with all of their hearts
00:52:24.17\00:52:29.01
That the star would
find the Baby at last
00:52:29.04\00:52:35.02

They rejoiced with
exceeding great joy

00:53:39.41\00:53:42.22
They rejoiced with
exceeding great joy
00:53:42.25\00:53:47.36
Amen. Wow. That was fun.
00:53:55.66\00:54:00.10
Can you imagine now, Danny?
00:54:00.14\00:54:01.50
Can you imagine the
shepherds on the hillside
00:54:01.54\00:54:04.57
rejoicing with great
joy because they know
00:54:04.61\00:54:06.84
this is the Christ,
this is the Son of God.
00:54:06.88\00:54:09.01
Absolutely.
00:54:09.04\00:54:10.38
Born here in
this manger rejoicing.
00:54:10.41\00:54:13.68
Oh, my goodness, they would
have been doing a little dance.
00:54:13.72\00:54:15.52
Absolutely.
00:54:15.55\00:54:16.99
And we're gonna do some in
heaven I got a feeling too,
00:54:17.02\00:54:19.22
you know, just to
thank you made it there.
00:54:19.25\00:54:21.32
Right.
00:54:21.36\00:54:22.69
But you know what, Danny,
meeting Christ now in our lives
00:54:22.72\00:54:26.26
we should each day face each day
00:54:26.29\00:54:29.03
with exceeding great joy
knowing that He's our hope.
00:54:29.06\00:54:31.87
Hope not only for the future
00:54:31.90\00:54:33.84
but He's our hope to
get us through today.
00:54:33.87\00:54:36.14
That's what I love.
He still He remains.
00:54:36.17\00:54:38.17
Christians are
to be the happiest
00:54:38.21\00:54:39.54
most excited people on earth.
00:54:39.57\00:54:40.91
Absolutely.
00:54:40.94\00:54:42.28
Absolutely, no humdrum for us.
00:54:42.31\00:54:43.65
That's right. Okay.
00:54:43.68\00:54:45.01
We love it. We love it.
00:54:45.05\00:54:46.38
Except when we're doing laundry.
00:54:46.41\00:54:47.75
I think that's a little humdrum.
00:54:47.78\00:54:49.12
Even then aren't you grateful
to have a washing machine?
00:54:49.15\00:54:50.92
That's exactly right.
00:54:50.95\00:54:52.29
And I was mopping
floors just last week.
00:54:52.32\00:54:54.52
Actually I am so grateful
that she has a washing machine.
00:54:54.56\00:54:57.03
Yes.
00:54:57.06\00:54:59.63
Honey, you know,
you had mentioned about,
00:54:59.66\00:55:01.16
you know, at the
first of the program about,
00:55:01.20\00:55:02.93
you know, you
might be, you know,
00:55:02.96\00:55:04.40
if you're lonely or what,
if you're there doing chores
00:55:04.43\00:55:06.63
in the house, so I was wondering
00:55:06.67\00:55:08.60
if you were starting to
make a list for me because...
00:55:08.64\00:55:10.81
I am.
00:55:10.84\00:55:12.17
There's so much
today when we get home.
00:55:12.21\00:55:13.81
And, you know, we are laughing
and everything but, you know,
00:55:13.84\00:55:16.24
there is a difference.
00:55:16.28\00:55:17.61
We can't be doing that
laundry, mopping every week.
00:55:17.65\00:55:19.08
I hope that you've been dancing
around and singing your praises
00:55:19.11\00:55:22.15
to God as
you're doing that today
00:55:22.18\00:55:23.52
while you've been
listening to this music.
00:55:23.55\00:55:24.99
And I hope that you
do find that true joy
00:55:25.02\00:55:27.46
that Christ only gives.
00:55:27.49\00:55:28.82
That's right.
00:55:28.86\00:55:30.19
I mean, He is the
only thing that can get you
00:55:30.23\00:55:32.73
through the
humdrum, the horrible times
00:55:32.76\00:55:35.53
this humdrum times, the
times when you might feel like,
00:55:35.56\00:55:38.30
"I'm just doing the
same old thing again today,
00:55:38.33\00:55:40.07
I'm doing the
laundry, I'm doing the wash,"
00:55:40.10\00:55:41.74
but, you know
what, He is with you
00:55:41.77\00:55:44.24
and He can make it be
something new every day.
00:55:44.27\00:55:47.01
You can't find...
00:55:47.04\00:55:48.38
Like Tim just said,
but we're grateful to have
00:55:48.41\00:55:50.21
a washing machine
and you can find the joy
00:55:50.25\00:55:53.01
in everything
that you do every day.
00:55:53.05\00:55:54.58
And God is not
finished with you yet either.
00:55:54.62\00:55:57.39
No matter your age, no matter
what you're doing every day.
00:55:57.42\00:56:00.86
I went to McDonald's last week,
and I walked in and the lady
00:56:00.89\00:56:04.59
goes, she starts to
type my order, and she said,
00:56:04.63\00:56:08.73
"What would you like, love?"
00:56:08.76\00:56:10.10
And I went...
00:56:10.13\00:56:11.47
And she didn't
know my name was Love.
00:56:11.50\00:56:12.83
And I just...
00:56:12.87\00:56:14.20
Oh, but it's like, you know,
when you go to another place
00:56:14.24\00:56:16.07
and they say my
pleasure to serve you,
00:56:16.10\00:56:18.27
it did something...
00:56:18.31\00:56:19.64
I said, "You have no idea
00:56:19.67\00:56:21.01
the ministry
you have right here.
00:56:21.04\00:56:22.38
Do you say that to
everybody?" She said, "I do."
00:56:22.41\00:56:24.38
I said, "You have an
incredible ministry."
00:56:24.41\00:56:26.48
So you have an
incredible ministry.
00:56:26.51\00:56:28.62
Whatever we do every
day, we can make a difference
00:56:28.65\00:56:30.35
in the smallest
things God can use you.
00:56:30.39\00:56:32.45
Absolutely.
00:56:32.49\00:56:33.82
And then once you come to
Jesus at the foot of the cross,
00:56:33.86\00:56:36.79
submit and
commit your life to Him.
00:56:36.83\00:56:38.36
You're supposed
to go and tell...
00:56:38.39\00:56:39.73
That's right.
00:56:39.76\00:56:41.10
"Go Tell It on the
Mountain." How about that?
00:56:41.13\00:56:42.46
Let's try that.
00:56:42.50\00:56:44.87
Go, tell it on the mountain
00:56:44.90\00:56:48.94
Over the hills and everywhere
00:56:48.97\00:56:53.11
Go, tell it on the mountain
00:56:53.14\00:56:56.71
That Jesus Christ is born!
00:56:56.75\00:57:01.22
Go, tell it on the mountain
00:57:01.25\00:57:05.19
Over the hills and everywhere
00:57:05.22\00:57:09.32
Go, tell it on the mountain
00:57:09.36\00:57:12.89
That Jesus Christ is born!
00:57:12.93\00:57:16.97
That Jesus Christ is born!
00:57:17.00\00:57:20.77
All right.
00:57:27.14\00:57:28.84
Jesus Christ is born!
00:57:35.18\00:57:40.79
All right, well done.
00:57:40.82\00:57:42.49
