The bonds of songs shared , is like the epoxyresin of life itself , the everlasting glue , It's a supernatural force of wonder , I'm so thankful for its joys.
Amen! My mom, after having a heart attack and stroke at age 87, passed away Oct 17 2022. Like your's mom was an awesome do it all mother. Her last words were " Pease , Jesus, I'm ready!" ........ No doubt she was! I miss her, but i know I'll see her again. Thanks DD Awesome show!
Doyle, you have your mother's eyes and eyebrows... Heidi, you have her smile !!! Thank you all again, my mom died about a month ago... 96 yrs young... definitely the "glue" in our family... Praise God !!! Brian W. Michigan...
Yes, what a wonderful morning here in Michigan watching Doyle & his sister with their beautiful Mom. My Mom passed away 7 years ago but I feel that she's still with me while I spend Mother's day morning with Doyle's family.
Doyle. I'm Greg, not Brian. I'm from Michigan too and I, like Brian, so loved this string along when it aired Mother's Day and I'm enjoying it again 5 days later. God bless you, your daughter Heidi and your blessed mother !
That was absolutely a beautiful string along. To see your beautiful mother sing like that at 96 just brought tears to my eyes. I lost my mother April of 2023 and she could sing like a bird as well. Brought back fond memories. Happy Mother’s Day to all the moms in your family! God bless you all!
Oh my oh my, what a wonderful Stringalong! I found myself quite tearful listening…..and when Mom, Heidi and Doyle sang together!!!! Mom’s voice, for an 94/96-year old is astonishing, and matches her legacy to the Doyle family. My own family are like that…..my own Mum(UK speak!) passed in 2020 aged 100…..and left behind such a valuable legacy of faith and reliability of which we are now the beneficiaries. I’ve now turned 80, the elder member…..what will I leave? Mom Doyle, the bar you’ve left is high, but all the praise and glory goes to Jesus, the Author and Finisher of our faith. Those of you who are younger, build your families on the firm foundation of Jesus and His Word, there’s nothing better! As ever, thanks Doyle from across the Pond!🙏✝️
What an incredible family, and an amazing matriarch. Funny, when Heidi commented on her grandmas direct line to God, that was something I always said about my mom. May God grant a special blessing to all of the Godly mothers everywhere. Thank you for another great String-Along.
I am thankful for a praying mother I love this song sweet holy spirit I am pentecostal God bless you and your family my immediate family is me and my daughter I pray for you and your family bròther
My brother, Alan, called this morning to tell me you had a Mother’s Day special on RU-vid. It’s such a blessing to see your beautiful mom. Love to you and your family. Paulette Boree Wright
The look that Heidi has on her face is absolute pure happiness and is so beautiful to behold. She’s been able to bring Dad and Grandma together for a special day in her home. That’s absolutely priceless! Thank you all for inviting us to be there with you. Happy Mother’s Day to you all!
God is good and loves everybody, especially mothers. My mother passed in 1979 and my mother in law in 2012 but both are happier than ever with The Lord and very alive in my heart. My wife, love of my life, is with me and serves The Lord with all of her heart. Happy mother's day!
Your mom is such a wonderful lady. What a wonderful String-Along. You have such a blessed family. God bless and thanks for bringing this to our homes this Mother’s Day weekend.
Absolutely precious! My Mother went home a couple of years ago. I miss her more every day, but I joy in the fact that she's with my Dad, and all of our family who are there, and we'll soon be together forever. Thank you Doyle for these string-a-longs. They are wonderful. God bless.
Loved seeing Aunt Mert this morning on your string along. Love her so much! Happy Mother’s Day to Aunt Mert, Heidi, Holli and Haley and your precious wife Rita. Thanks for the memories this morning. - cuz Connie
❤ Thank you, Doyle! ❤ I’m sitting here practically bawling, because my mother went home to Jesus back in January, just after she turned 99 years of age. I loved the song about hearing mother pray again. My father is 100, and I dread the day I’ll get that phone call that he has gone to join Mom. But for now, we’re glad he’s hanging around. Keep playin’!
That was wonderful an inspiring. Such beautiful singing an music. Thankful for your Moms long life, prayer, her singing, your daughter, your healing that I just learnt off. Your guitar playing would make anyone want to sing or at least make an effort too. I Lv Gods Word an I love beautiful spiritual singing. Gods blessings.
Happy 70th birthday Doyle from across the pond! Fantastic Stringalong on Sunday with Jake, Haley and Emmy Lou….wow, Jake’s bass playing in amazing and the two of you are brilliant together! May the Lord continue to bless you and all the family as you go on “picking for Jesus!”
What a delight to meet you wonderful people. Such an inspiration and brings so many similar memories back of my own dear mother and her godly ways and walk with the Lord. Doyle you are a true gentleman and such a gifted guitarist. This is the nicest time spent remembering mother's day and God bless you and your whole family.
I just finished watching, and I'm feeling the love that Doyle and Heidi have for Martha. My mommy is ten years gone to heaven (Charlotte 75 years), and it was so good to see and feel the love that you have for one another. God bless you and your family, Doyle. I absolutely love Sundays with you, and especially today with your momma. We lost our mother when she was 75 years old. I have so many precious memories of her, and many regrets, such is life. I've had 10 years of Mother's Days without her on earth, but I will see her in paradise.
No one loves you like your mama does, that’s for sure! Happy Mother’s Day’s to all the women in your family. “Mother-love and God-love are a rare combination and one that can’t be beaten when sealed by earnest prayer-“ It is was so nice to hear ya’ll sing together! Thank you 🙏
Such a moving string along!!! Many emotions I experienced and thinking how wonderful it would have been to grow up in your family environment! Beautiful beautiful string along! Your mother was such a blessing !! Love you all and pray continued blessings over you all!!!
Doyle, it is a blessing to spend time with you, your wonderful mom and daughter on this special day! Thank you so much for your music and the way it uplifts us all! God bless you and God bless your family!
Such a blessing to finally see your precious mother. I too, was able to take my guitar down on Mother's Day, to visit with my mama (88 y.o. next month), and sing a few of her favorite songs. She was the one who I first learned how to sing harmony from. Many nights, as just a little boy, I went to sleep listening to WSM, the Grand Ole Opry! We are blessed to still have our mothers with us, my brother.
I came for the guitar playing, stayed for the wonderful dedication to your precious mother and the wonderful words of our savior Jesus Christ. I’m a guitar player and a fan of yours but this video became much more than music and it touched me very much, beautiful family. I don’t have my praying mother any longer and I’m claiming your mother’s prayer to stand in for my mother
😪 this is beautiful it brought me to tears i lost my Amazing Mum 3years ago now ... she loved me playing my guitar although no where near as good as you Doyle ...but Mum loved and thats all that mattered 🙏 Seing the joy in your Mums eyes warms my heart 🫂🙏 Bless you all x
I totally agree. I was thinking that same thing. Doyle's Sunday String Alongs are wonderful but this one is the greatest so far. God Bless Doyle, his daughter Heidi and his incredible Mom !
Your mother is precious. This beings back so many memories of my mother. I remember playing guitar for her while she was in a hospice. I still miss her.
At the 25:31 mark Heidi warms our hearts with love for Doyle and her 'Nana' as “Matriarch of the family, just holding us all together. Whenever I've been nervous, or anxious or have something to pray about, I go straight to her - always! I feel like you have a 'wireless' direct line to God!” Heidi's words bring the most beautiful smile of the day to her grandmother. Deepest thanks to Heidi and to Doyle for sharing. Love it when these lovely ladies harmonize as on a hymn like 'Sweet Holy Spirit' at 33:27 mark. So many wonderful comments from kindred spirits. We love your family, Doyle.
Happy mothers day to your mom and daughter! have a blessed day! My mom has been gone for over 20 years. Just lost my wife in January for almost 19 years. Thank you for your Sunday string alongs and your sharing the word of god.
Doyle, catching up on Sunday String Along and I just so enjoyed seeing your precious Mother and daughter there with you. Such grateful memories of the Dykes Family from when I was a very young girl. Your family definitely was a big part of the foundation on my youth. Mama Dykes looks so beautiful! Love and blessings to you all. 🙏🏼
Wow! Thanks for this , brother Doyle! Happy Mother’s Day to your mom, wife and daughters… my wife and I have really enjoyed this… prayers for you as always, my friend!
What a special tribute to your Mom. When she talked about working in the cotton patch and hoeing Peanuts, it hit home. I was raised on the farm here in Caddo County Oklahoma, and spent many hours chopping and pulling cotton. At one time here we were the Peanut Capital of the nation. My Mom sang with a Trio in our church until she had a stroke. Moms are great.
Doyle, such beautiful harmonies. THANK YOU AND YOUR MOM AND DAUGHTER. May God bless you all "from the top of your heads to the bottom of your feet";) Praise God ✝️
I must say, that is the best Sunday string along I’ve witnessed to date. Faith, family and friends. It’s not about us. It’s about what God can do through us for others. The power of prayer of a mother or anyone for that matter, putting others before their selves. Unselfish love. 😢 thanks for sharing your family with us. Your mother still sings well has a beautiful voice and carries a tune. You’re a lucky son.
Great terrific Mothers Day String Along show Doyle with your mom and daughter. I loved it. My Mom has passed but your tribute was a great memory inducer. Jim from Western PA
Never heard of this guy before just popped up on my feed, it's just wonderful! Growing up my dad played a record called Chester and Lester and I just loved it it reminds me so much of those times. That's just awesome, God bless his mother and his family!
Chet Atkins ( Chester ) and Les Paul ( Lester ) released two albums together in 1976 & 1978 or nine. I was only 17 but already a big fan of both of them. Your Dad has good musical taste.
What a beautiful great service. I have been looking forward to seeing your mother. She is a very awesome lady. So is your daughter. You are very blessed to have such a beautiful and loving family. Doyle, Please keep my brother Franklin Charles in your prayers still. He seems to be doing okay for now. Only God can cure him. But with our prayers, we are letting God know we need his help. Thank you for everything. I'd love to see the rest of your family on the String Along Someday. I'm sure they are as great as everyone else. God bless you all on this Mother's Day. I truly hope you all have a blessed fun day.
Happy Mother's Day to both of the Mrs. Dykes, Heidi, Holli, and Haley. I had an early Mother's Day last weekend in California with our Son which was very nice indeed. I am happy to say that my late Mother, Grandmothers and Great Grandmothers were all Christians and resting in the arms of our Savior. I think all three of you sang beautifully today! So happy your wonderful Mother was able to be with you! She's a peach! Such a great testimony of a Christian life. Thanks for that Billy Sunday quote. One of my former pastors wrote a terrific biography of Billy Sunday and made it into a film. Billy Sunday was an amazing evangelist.
So wonderful! Thank you for sharing your family with us all. Dear heavenly father, thank you for this moment to show each other the love you show us, amen
Loved this heartwarming Sunday String Along, Doyle! Your Mother is so sweet and beautiful! Plus she still has a great voice and memory to remember the lyrics. Love your videos and outstanding Guitar Talent! God bless
Oh, how precious! You truly have a wonderful, godly mother! I did too. She’s been in heaven 56 years and I miss her, so. You mentioned fishing out toward Mayport. When we lived there, we went out Heckshire Drive and fished for trout off the bridges! Sweet memories! ❤❤❤
Your wonderful music, stories and especially Mom's prayer was a great blessing to me, Doyle, as I am ìll, cannot walk and need healing. May God continue to bless you and your wonderful family, especially your Mom, on her special day. My mom and I took a trip from NY to PA to see you and Haley perform in a small musical instrument shop there. It was a truly wonderful experience and great blessing to us! Mom loved it, as your guitar style reminded her so much of her love of ragtime piano, which she, herself, played back in the day. We met you after the show and you were so gracious & kind with your time and conversation. Being with her there with you that day is one of my fondest memories...🙏 Mom passed away in November 2014 at age 88 and life hasn't been the same without her. 😔 God Bless 🙏 ~"Billy Greenville" (Greenville, SC)
God bless you Billy and thanks for sharing your story. I’m here with Haley and will tell her about it. May God bless you and give you strength and healing!
I cannot tell you how happy I am to see my Aunt Martha, along with Heidi, of course, and you, Doyle!! I loved seeing this program. It did my heart a lot of good to see your precious mama, my aunt again!❤❤❤
I totally agree as I have seen many of Doyle's videos but even with it's poor sound quality of low volume and raspy voices it was still the best String Along yet !
Precious ! Nothing more beautiful than a mother’s love. Doyle we are the same age. My Mom went to Heaven 2 years ago at 95. I miss her every day but will see her soon Amen. Heidi is a beautiful lady. Doyle you are blessed with a wonderful Godly family. Praise the Lord. ❤️
