Welcome back.
00:00:01.36\00:00:02.70
Glad you came
back to sing along.
00:00:02.73\00:00:04.17
I wanted to invite a friend,
00:00:04.20\00:00:06.13
I want to invite
a friend who have...
00:00:06.17\00:00:08.10
You've actually not
been on this program before.
00:00:08.14\00:00:09.64
I know man, it's about time
00:00:09.67\00:00:11.17
to be on Your
Favorites by Request, you know.
00:00:11.21\00:00:13.07
Well, and you're so booked
00:00:13.11\00:00:14.71
that it's finally your calendar
00:00:14.74\00:00:17.05
cleared up to be a part of this.
00:00:17.08\00:00:18.41
So thank you for
agreeing to this.
00:00:18.45\00:00:20.55
I love to hear you sing
00:00:20.58\00:00:22.05
and I know the
audience loves to hear you sing.
00:00:22.08\00:00:24.22
And I love to
hear you play and sing,
00:00:24.25\00:00:25.75
so great combination.
00:00:25.79\00:00:27.16
We're going to
make some music together
00:00:27.19\00:00:29.16
and especially with
you singing along at home.
00:00:29.19\00:00:31.33
So, Ryan Day, you are the man.
00:00:31.36\00:00:34.36
Hey, I absolutely, I
love, I love this program.
00:00:34.40\00:00:37.03
I watch it all the time.
00:00:37.07\00:00:38.40
And I love
singing praises to God.
00:00:38.43\00:00:40.34
In fact, we're going to sing
00:00:40.37\00:00:41.70
so why don't we just
start with one right now.
00:00:41.74\00:00:43.07
"Give me the Bible,"
it's one of my favorite hymns
00:00:43.10\00:00:45.54
and take it away.
00:00:45.57\00:00:47.18
Let's do it.
00:00:47.21\00:00:48.54
Give me the Bible
Star Of gladness gleaming
00:00:57.22\00:01:02.36
To cheer the wanderer
lone And tempest tossed
00:01:02.39\00:01:07.23
No storm can hide That
Peaceful radiance beaming
00:01:07.26\00:01:12.17
Since Jesus came to
seek And save the lost
00:01:12.20\00:01:17.41
Give me the Bible
Holy message shining
00:01:17.44\00:01:22.38
Thy light shall
guide me In the narrow way
00:01:22.41\00:01:27.52
Precept and promise
Law and love combining
00:01:27.55\00:01:32.59
'Til night shall
vanish In eternal day
00:01:32.62\00:01:38.73
Give me the Bible
When my heart is broken
00:01:38.76\00:01:44.07
When sin and grief Have
filled my soul with fear
00:01:44.10\00:01:49.30
Give me the precious
words By Jesus spoken
00:01:49.34\00:01:54.44
Hold up faith's lamp
To show my Savior near
00:01:54.48\00:01:59.81
Give me the Bible
Holy message shining
00:01:59.85\00:02:05.09
Thy light shall
guide me In the narrow way
00:02:05.12\00:02:10.59
Precept and promise
Law and love combining
00:02:10.63\00:02:15.96
'Til night shall
vanish In eternal day
00:02:16.00\00:02:20.80
And you sing at home, all right?
00:02:20.84\00:02:22.34
All right, on the chorus,
00:02:40.29\00:02:42.02
Give me the Bible
Holy message shining
00:02:42.06\00:02:47.13
Thy light shall
guide me In the narrow way
00:02:47.16\00:02:52.43
Precept and promise
Law and love combining
00:02:52.47\00:02:57.67
'Til night shall vanish
00:02:57.71\00:03:00.41
In eternal day.
00:03:00.44\00:03:05.15
Amen. Praise the
Lord. I love the Bible.
00:03:05.18\00:03:07.75
I love the fact that we have
00:03:07.78\00:03:09.35
God's Holy Word
speaking directly to us,
00:03:09.38\00:03:11.35
directly to us.
00:03:11.39\00:03:12.72
That's right. Amen.
00:03:12.75\00:03:14.09
And that's a great, great hymn.
00:03:14.12\00:03:15.99
Absolutely.
00:03:16.02\00:03:17.36
The Word of God is powerful.
00:03:17.39\00:03:18.73
And it gives us lots of counsel,
00:03:18.76\00:03:21.43
wonderful counsel to live
a wonderful life in the Lord.
00:03:21.46\00:03:24.53
And, you know, the
one thing that I love
00:03:24.57\00:03:26.63
about the Word of God
00:03:26.67\00:03:28.00
is that it gives us not
only stories of the past,
00:03:28.04\00:03:31.07
but also of the future.
00:03:31.11\00:03:32.44
And I love
00:03:32.47\00:03:33.81
how Christ doesn't
leave anything out.
00:03:33.84\00:03:35.24
He tells us very clearly
00:03:35.28\00:03:36.61
that He shall
not come back again
00:03:36.64\00:03:38.48
until all His
gospel of the kingdom
00:03:38.51\00:03:40.58
goes into all the world.
00:03:40.62\00:03:42.25
And, you know,
the harvest is right,
00:03:42.28\00:03:44.19
the Bible says,
00:03:44.22\00:03:45.55
and it kind of
prepares us for this next song,
00:03:45.59\00:03:48.02
the good old-fashioned hymn
00:03:48.06\00:03:49.46
called
"Bringing in the Sheaves."
00:03:49.49\00:03:51.13
You know, I remember,
you hear this one a lot on,
00:03:51.16\00:03:53.93
like, old westerns
00:03:53.96\00:03:55.56
where they're
sitting in the old church
00:03:55.60\00:03:57.33
in the Wildwood,
00:03:57.37\00:03:58.70
as they say
Bringing in the Sheaves.
00:03:58.73\00:04:00.47
This is great song.
00:04:00.50\00:04:01.84
Sowing in the morning
Sowing seeds of kindness
00:04:11.71\00:04:16.42
Sowing in the noontide
00:04:16.45\00:04:18.75
And the dewy eve
00:04:18.79\00:04:20.96
Waiting for the
harvest And the time of reaping
00:04:20.99\00:04:25.36
We shall come rejoicing
Bringing in the sheaves
00:04:25.39\00:04:30.10
Bringing in the
sheaves Bringing in the sheaves
00:04:30.13\00:04:34.54
We shall come rejoicing
Bringing in the sheaves
00:04:34.57\00:04:38.94
Bringing in the
sheaves Bringing in the sheaves
00:04:38.97\00:04:43.31
We shall come rejoicing
Bringing in the sheaves
00:04:43.35\00:04:48.72
Sowing in the
sunshine Sowing in the shadows
00:04:48.75\00:04:53.39
Fearing neither clouds
Nor winter's chilling breeze
00:04:53.42\00:04:57.96
By and by the
harvest And the labor ended
00:04:57.99\00:05:02.43
We shall come rejoicing
Bringing in the sheaves
00:05:02.46\00:05:07.10
Going forth with
weeping Sowing for the Master
00:05:07.14\00:05:11.51
Though the loss sustained
Our spirit often grieves
00:05:11.54\00:05:16.04
When our weeping's
over He will bid us welcome
00:05:16.08\00:05:20.52
We shall come rejoicing
Bringing in the sheaves
00:05:20.55\00:05:25.05
Bringing in the
sheaves Bringing in the sheaves
00:05:25.09\00:05:29.59
We shall come rejoicing
Bringing in the sheaves
00:05:29.62\00:05:34.00
Bringing in the
sheaves Bringing in the sheaves
00:05:34.03\00:05:38.43
We shall come rejoicing
Bringing in the sheaves.
00:05:38.47\00:05:45.44
You know, you often hear people
00:05:45.47\00:05:47.81
complain about
the modern choruses
00:05:47.84\00:05:50.08
how they're very repetitive.
00:05:50.11\00:05:52.28
Well, I didn't see any
repetition in that song.
00:05:52.31\00:05:53.88
Yeah, not at all.
00:05:53.92\00:05:56.18
Bringing in old fashion.
00:05:56.22\00:05:57.55
That's good.
That's good. Absolutely.
00:05:57.59\00:05:58.92
You know, I have to just,
I have to just input in here.
00:05:58.95\00:06:01.29
You know, everyone
of all these good people
00:06:01.32\00:06:02.66
sending in their favorites.
00:06:02.69\00:06:04.19
And I have yet to be
able to do one of my favorites
00:06:04.23\00:06:06.49
on this show, so.
00:06:06.53\00:06:07.86
I've not yet run
across your email, I guess,
00:06:07.90\00:06:10.87
submitting that request.
00:06:10.90\00:06:12.23
Right. Right.
00:06:12.27\00:06:13.60
So I suppose you're
telling me, you have a favorite.
00:06:13.64\00:06:15.64
I do have a favorite.
00:06:15.67\00:06:17.01
You know, since we're on
00:06:17.04\00:06:18.37
kind of the theme
of hymns right now,
00:06:18.41\00:06:19.91
one of my favorites is actually
00:06:19.94\00:06:21.91
a good
old-fashioned Adventist hymn.
00:06:21.94\00:06:23.95
It's just swallowed
in Adventist history,
00:06:23.98\00:06:26.85
as was seen early on in
our early Adventist history.
00:06:26.88\00:06:29.25
And, of course,
00:06:29.28\00:06:30.62
I love the
story behind the song.
00:06:30.65\00:06:32.19
The song is
entitled, "Never Part Again."
00:06:32.22\00:06:34.76
And it's one of those you
just don't hear very often.
00:06:34.79\00:06:36.49
It's kind of got,
a kind of an awkward,
00:06:36.52\00:06:38.43
kind of weird chorus
00:06:38.46\00:06:39.79
even though it's kind of
catchy once you get on to it.
00:06:39.83\00:06:42.00
But you know, good
old-fashioned evangelist
00:06:42.03\00:06:43.77
by the name of Fordis Detamore
00:06:43.80\00:06:46.00
used to sing this song
at his evangelistic series.
00:06:46.03\00:06:47.80
What was his name?
00:06:47.84\00:06:49.17
Fordis Detamore. Okay.
00:06:49.20\00:06:50.54
And he would, he
would basically do it
00:06:50.57\00:06:52.41
like a call in response
00:06:52.44\00:06:53.78
and I would kind of
like to do that here.
00:06:53.81\00:06:55.14
You can just help me
out, on the chorus it goes,
00:06:55.18\00:06:58.98
when it comes to the part
00:06:59.01\00:07:00.35
where you're
asking the question,
00:07:00.38\00:07:01.72
why do you say that?
00:07:01.75\00:07:03.08
What?
00:07:03.12\00:07:04.45
Never part again
00:07:04.49\00:07:05.82
and then I'll say no.
00:07:05.85\00:07:07.19
Never part again.
00:07:07.22\00:07:08.56
And then you'll say what?
00:07:08.59\00:07:09.92
Almost like you're in disbelief.
00:07:09.96\00:07:11.29
What?
00:07:11.33\00:07:12.66
Never part again.
00:07:12.69\00:07:14.03
I'll say, no, never part again.
00:07:14.06\00:07:16.77
And we'll continue through.
00:07:16.80\00:07:18.13
So let's sing it.
It's a beautiful song.
00:07:18.17\00:07:19.50
Let's try it.
00:07:19.53\00:07:20.87
There is a land of pure delight
00:07:31.21\00:07:38.02
Where bliss eternal reigns
00:07:38.05\00:07:44.16
Infinite day excludes the night
00:07:44.19\00:07:50.90
And pleasures banish pain
00:07:50.93\00:07:56.77
We're trav'ling
To Immanuel's land
00:07:56.81\00:08:02.58
We soon shall
hear The trumpet sound
00:08:02.61\00:08:08.55
And soon we shall
00:08:08.58\00:08:12.09
With Jesus reign
00:08:12.12\00:08:16.39
And never, never part again
00:08:16.42\00:08:21.43
This is where I come in?
This is where you come in.
00:08:21.46\00:08:23.40
What?
00:08:23.43\00:08:24.93
Never part again?
00:08:24.97\00:08:28.34
No, never part again
00:08:28.37\00:08:34.21
What?
00:08:34.24\00:08:35.58
Never part again?
00:08:35.61\00:08:38.05
No, never part again
00:08:38.08\00:08:43.25
And soon we shall
00:08:43.28\00:08:46.79
With Jesus reign
00:08:46.82\00:08:51.23
And never, never part again
00:08:51.26\00:08:54.50
I love it.
00:08:54.53\00:08:55.86
And I love
that, don't you? Yeah.
00:08:55.90\00:08:57.23
Sing the second verse.
00:08:57.27\00:08:58.60
There's
Everlasting Spring abides
00:08:58.63\00:09:05.34
And never with'ring flowers
00:09:05.37\00:09:11.21
And but a little space
00:09:11.25\00:09:15.55
Divides
00:09:15.58\00:09:18.49
This heav'nly land from ours
00:09:18.52\00:09:24.49
We're trav'ling
To Immanuel's land
00:09:24.53\00:09:29.96
We soon shall
hear The trumpet sound
00:09:30.00\00:09:35.70
And soon we shall
00:09:35.74\00:09:38.84
With Jesus reign
00:09:38.87\00:09:42.98
And never, never part again
00:09:43.01\00:09:49.52
What?
00:09:49.55\00:09:50.89
Never part again?
00:09:50.92\00:09:53.49
No, never part again
00:09:53.52\00:09:58.73
What?
00:09:58.76\00:10:00.10
Never part again?
00:10:00.13\00:10:02.20
No, never part again
00:10:02.23\00:10:07.54
And soon we shall
00:10:07.57\00:10:10.91
With Jesus reign
00:10:10.94\00:10:14.94
And never, never part again
00:10:14.98\00:10:20.82
Sing it now.
00:10:20.85\00:10:22.18
Could we but stand
00:10:22.22\00:10:25.45
Where Moses stood
00:10:25.49\00:10:29.22
And view the landscape o'er
00:10:29.26\00:10:35.10
Not all this
world's Pretended good
00:10:35.13\00:10:42.00
Could ever charm us more
00:10:42.04\00:10:48.11
We're trav'ling
To Immanuel's land
00:10:48.14\00:10:53.75
We soon shall
hear The trumpet sound
00:10:53.78\00:10:59.65
And soon we shall
00:10:59.69\00:11:02.69
With Jesus reign
00:11:02.72\00:11:06.63
And never, never part again
00:11:06.66\00:11:12.83
What?
00:11:12.87\00:11:14.20
Never part again?
00:11:14.24\00:11:16.34
Oh, no, never part again
00:11:16.37\00:11:21.94
What?
00:11:21.98\00:11:23.41
Never part again?
00:11:23.45\00:11:26.01
No, never part again
00:11:26.05\00:11:31.69
And soon we shall
00:11:31.72\00:11:35.19
With Jesus reign
00:11:35.22\00:11:40.80
And never, never part again.
00:11:40.83\00:11:47.77
One of my
favorites, beautiful song, man.
00:11:52.47\00:11:54.94
You know what, dude,
00:11:54.98\00:11:56.44
I really didn't care
for that song before,
00:11:56.48\00:12:00.58
but thank you for
putting it in context.
00:12:00.62\00:12:03.28
And what a gift this song is.
00:12:03.32\00:12:05.72
I mean, and when sung
with such emotion and yeah,
00:12:05.75\00:12:10.13
that's, I mean,
00:12:10.16\00:12:11.49
I think the
writer would really enjoy
00:12:11.53\00:12:13.33
that performance very much.
00:12:13.36\00:12:14.73
Praise the Lord,
right? Praise the Lord.
00:12:14.76\00:12:16.10
Yeah, and you know what?
00:12:16.13\00:12:17.47
I'm glad people at home,
00:12:17.50\00:12:18.83
it's got to be
someone's favorite, right?
00:12:18.87\00:12:20.20
Not just mine.
00:12:20.24\00:12:21.57
Well, you know what,
the concept of the thought
00:12:21.60\00:12:22.94
never part again.
00:12:22.97\00:12:24.34
What a gift that that will be.
00:12:24.37\00:12:27.08
You know, of course
you know my last name
00:12:27.11\00:12:29.34
and they used to say well,
00:12:29.38\00:12:30.71
there'll be no
parting in heaven.
00:12:30.75\00:12:32.08
That's right. I got you.
00:12:32.11\00:12:33.45
And, so, yeah, it's
a bittersweet thanks,
00:12:33.48\00:12:37.62
but getting through it.
00:12:37.65\00:12:38.99
But thank you so very much
for sending in your request
00:12:39.02\00:12:42.89
and you're
welcome to do that anytime
00:12:42.92\00:12:44.39
as long as it's this one.
00:12:44.43\00:12:45.76
All right. Okay.
00:12:45.79\00:12:47.13
Okay, it sounds great.
00:12:47.16\00:12:48.50
So, um, wow,
that's such a sweet song.
00:12:48.53\00:12:51.23
We hear so much
from several of you
00:12:51.27\00:12:54.20
testifying to the many years
00:12:54.24\00:12:56.77
that you've been a Christian
00:12:56.81\00:12:58.67
and the joy that
Christ has filled you with,
00:12:58.71\00:13:01.38
even in spite
of some hard times.
00:13:01.41\00:13:04.95
So I dedicate this
song to our seasoned saints,
00:13:04.98\00:13:08.62
those of you
who've been serving Christ
00:13:08.65\00:13:11.02
for a long, long time,
00:13:11.05\00:13:12.89
and even those not so long.
00:13:12.92\00:13:16.52
Since I started
00:13:16.56\00:13:20.00
For the kingdom
00:13:20.03\00:13:23.73
Since my life He controls
00:13:23.77\00:13:30.34
Since I gave my heart to Jesus
00:13:30.37\00:13:37.18
The longer I serve Him
00:13:37.21\00:13:41.18
The sweeter He grows
00:13:41.22\00:13:45.59
The longer I serve Him
00:13:45.62\00:13:49.56
The sweeter He grows
00:13:49.59\00:13:53.50
The more that I love Him
00:13:53.53\00:13:57.37
More love He bestows
00:13:57.40\00:14:01.37
Each day is like Heaven
00:14:01.40\00:14:05.37
My heart overflows
00:14:05.41\00:14:09.74
The longer I serve Him
00:14:09.78\00:14:13.95
The sweeter He grows
00:14:13.98\00:14:17.65
Let's sing that chorus again.
00:14:17.69\00:14:19.39
The longer I serve Him
00:14:19.42\00:14:23.59
The sweeter He grows
00:14:23.63\00:14:27.43
The more that I love Him
00:14:27.46\00:14:31.33
More love He bestows
00:14:31.37\00:14:35.24
Each day is like Heaven
00:14:35.27\00:14:39.31
My heart overflows
00:14:39.34\00:14:43.38
The longer I serve Him.
00:14:43.41\00:14:47.42
The sweeter He grows
00:14:47.45\00:14:53.36
