A talented man. I have seen several clips of him performing this and love them. I love the work he did with The Church Sisters also. I'm not at all religous but love a lot of Carl's work.
Thanks for posting that! I really feel it when I hear this song. I had assumed it was a late 1800s song! The WTCBU 1 album set is/has been one of my top favs since it was released! I still have the original vinyl and also the iTunes download on my phone! Bless you both and thank you! Is there a list of who’s playing what on this song? Love pedal steel, mandolin, etc!
I hope one day to meet Ricky Skaggs, he will one day be a Legend Of Country Music. I love his song Crying My Eyes Over You Too. Best Wishes, LittleCountryD
That version of the Little Mountain Church House by Ricky Scaggs Nitty Gritty band was the best ! Also want to say to Ricky glad your by pass surgery went well.God Bless and goodbhealth in 2021.
Goosebumps. All. Over. These are consummate and professional musicians. They could play you a beautiful rehearsed song or get together for a jam session that would sound just as amazing. This looks like the same studio they recorded "Will the Circle be Unbroken" which is also on RU-vid.
I am so glad you like this song. Please know that without Jesus one will spend eternity in conscious torment (a place called hell) With Jesus you will spend eternity in Paradise (a place called Heaven). It will be once place or the other whether you want to believe it or not. We all are sinners and headed to hell if we don't accept Jesus as our Lord and Savior. I once was an agnostic until Jesus came to me in a dream. I don't know why He called me, but He did. Please know that this is real. It is a fact. The only reason I tell you this is because I care about your soul and your eternity. Ultimately it is your choice. Please choose wisely.
it's funny, I have a nostalgia for the song and not the church, which in my childhood was really close to being like the lyrics describe. growing up I thought maybe I'd look back one day and feel the same way the guy in the song did. I've made my own way philosophically since then, and the simple, earnest values I learned from my family all week have been much more useful to me than the stylized dogmatic version on Sundays. Those weekday values have become the cornerstone in my life.
If you say you’re an atheist you’re saying I’m just an accident of nature or what ever if you’re comfortable with that thought fine. Myself I was taught to believe I have a creator that is God look around you take a deep breath look how things interrelate, I cannot believe this is all a chance happening, I believe there is a guiding hand. If you’re comfortable in your belief so be it, I prefer to think I’m more than just a chance happening. I will respect your beliefs but you should respect mine also
I'm a little late to the party realizing what a huge talent Ricky is. This could easily make my top 10 all time songs along side the Stones, Bruce and The Beatles.
Charlie Spencer November 22, 2012 · Turtle Creek, WV · 29 years ago today, I as a young boy, knelt at an alter,hewn from a large poplar log, in a log cabin church on Mikes Fork of Hewett Creek, WV and asked Jesus to save my eternal soul. I had gone up and prayed two nights in a row before this and couldn't get satisfied. I was under conviction from the Holy Ghost. For months I had thought about Heaven and Hell (mostly Hell). My Great Aunt Hattie Bias had passed away that spring and I wanted so bad to run to the altar at her funeral but I let fear and pride hold me back. Thank God for his mercy and long suffering. Aunt Hattie, Mawmaw Mabe, Mom, and the Holy Spirit had been hard on my trail for a year or so. They loved me and wanted me to be saved, so they talked to me. (Parents should do more of that today!). They would bring it up in conversations,that I need to be saved, every chance they got. Mom one time tried to talk to me on the way to school, about salvation, to which I blew up at her. "You've just ruined my whole day". She took it in stride knowing I was under conviction. God was plowing the fertile field of my heart planting seed that would spring forth into eternal life. Hallelujah! Right there! It all came to a head on November 22, 1983. Our pastor at the Log Chapel, Oran Dent, (my pawpaws first cousin and the man that pastored the Log Chapel after Pawpaw's death) had preached the first night of the revival about Zacheus meeting Jesus. "Jesus is coming this way". I was ready. I wanted to be saved. I just wasn't sure how it worked on the inside. Yeh, I knew you went to the altar and prayed and most people cried. But how did you know when the deal was done? Two nights in a row I went to the altar and prayed but I just wasn't satisfied. On the third night I saw an old saint, Gladys Jeffrey coming back toward my seat. She didn't get back to me, I went up on my own. I prayed and cried and was having a hard time believing God was going to save me. Then Gladys said something I'll never forget. "He's saving you if you'll just let him". I thought is it really that easy? I didn't know this scripture at the time but I love it now. Romans 10:9 "That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. 10:10For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 10:11For the scripture saith, Whosoever believeth on him shall not be ashamed." Amen right there! I believed in my heart that Jesus was the sinless Son of God. Sent to Earth as a man to suffer the death of the cross for me, to take away my sins. I just had trouble believing he would just save me like that. No flash of glory? No big emotional experience? Just a still small voice whispering "come" ,into my heart. Finally, I decided that I would just take Him at His Word and trust him. I decided to let Jesus save me. At the time I didn't feel that different. I was emotionally drained from the experience and I started doubting on the way home in the car that night. But mom encouraged me. Don't let the devil make you doubt. Jesus saved you! The Holy Ghost took up His abode in my Spirit. I was now whole for the first time in my life. My body was alive, my mind was alive, and now my spirit had been reborn by the in dwelling of the Holy Spirit. I was dead spiritually because of Adams original sin and my own. Genesis 2:16 "And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the garden thou mayest freely eat: 2:17But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not eat of it: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die." God didn't lie. 2Peter 3:8 "But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day." Adam physically died within that thousand years, 930. But more importantly his Spirit died and lost its connection to God. That's why God himself killed animals and covered Adam and Eve from their sin. Foreshadowing how He would sacrifice His own son in the flesh to cover the sins of the whole world in order to save those that will. If you are under conviction of the Holy Spirit he will save you too. Just let him. Believe in your heart that he is the Saviour and confess him as you're Saviour. I pray that all who read this will be saved. I pray the convicting power of the Holy Spirit on each one, to convict and convince each one of their own personal sin and great need of the Saviour. Charlie Spencer.
I love old good American Christian culture &custom ,such as this song lyrics. A lot of Japnese (almost influenced by Buddhist culture)also respect it. But actually, there is typical only money ,power and gun society. Replace all weapons instruments in hand.I realy hope.
spring 1989.. the 3 record set 'Will the Circle Be Unbroken', greatest collection of musical talent ever. this collection traveled the world with me, during my military career.
