I am 10 years old. I love Vestal and Howard's songs and music. I love this song, and I love how passionate Vestal is. I can't wait to see both of them in heaven. ❤🙏
She walked the walk and talk the talk. She was the real deal. A real ambassador for Christ on earth. The devil was constantly running from her! Vestal is the #1 draw in Gaither music history, and has appeared in more videos/concerts than any other in the series

I miss Vestal Goodman, her music has touched my heart more than any other.. I know heaven got a beautiful soul when Vestal got there.. Please always keep Vestals music on your site..
19 yrs the end of this year. Did you know her, Sharon? She is so loved. ♥️ I wonder if she ever knew how much. Vestal Goodman should not have died at just 2 weeks from her 74th BD. Medicine was advanced enough to have saved her life. I wondered if she ignored symptoms of something being wrong. Did you see her shudder at the beginning of her song. And she didn’t do the first part of the medley. I wondered why. I had never heard of her until January, but I love her so much. What I would have given to have met her!
@@idaclaire1869 never met her but I grew up listening to her. Vestal had her spleen removed in 1992 as a result of lymphoma. She lived a number of years without it. I think she had multiple health issues over the years. She was healed more than once and gives God the praise. If you can find her book you need to read it. Gives you real insight into her life and Howard's. She was truly remarkable and I thank God for giving her to all of us!! BTW the shudder at the beginning is something she does when she feels the presence of the Holy Spirit. That is on several of the dvds.
@@sharonpinner1207 I had considered that about the shudder. But I have watched every video I can find. Multiple times. I have not seen this happen on any other video. Now when she sang “What a Lovely Name “ at the Rymen in 1994, I think some of the singers close to her thought she had the Holy Spirit because she got goosebumps or something. But no shudder like this. My daughter is a nurse. I got her to look at it and she thought that something health wise was going on with her.
@@idaclaire1869 I have had questions about her death due to flu complications too. She lost her husband Howard 13 months before. They were so passionate about each other that I know how hard that must have been. I lost my love last August. He was a clergyman and. We spent almost every moment together like Howard and Vestal. I am heartbroken. I understand her dying in 13 months after his death.
@@sharonpinner1207 …. I am so sorry about your love. Please accept my sincere condolences. I know how hard it is to lose one’s mate. My sweet husband passed away 10 years ago this past March. We were married 47 and a half years. I have said it is like my right arm is ripped off. For me, it has not gotten any better but it has gotten somewhat easier. I look forward to seeing him soon in the resurrection promised by Jesus at John 5: 28&29. I do want to comment about Vestal but I don’t want to put it here. Is there some way I could get a private message to you? Or we could talk if you don’t mind.
Thank you Lord for bestowing Vesetal Goodman with this incredible, heartfelt voice! And Vestal I can't wait to meet you in heaven and tell you how much your songs have touched my life through the valleys and the moutain experiences. I wept once again when I sang this song with you today over and over. Yes, Jesus, the sweetest name I know! His name is wonderful, Jesus our Lord! He is the mighty KIng and MASTER of everything! How badly we need him....May God bless America! I sing this beautiful rendition by Vestal at the eve of this election! Yes, He is MASTER of EVERYTHING! He is Jesus my Lord!
I had the pleasure of meeting Vestal in November 2003, just a month before she died. She was everything and more you expected. She. Signed her book for me and called me darlin!!!
we ave to have a personal relationship with Christ ourselves before we can enter into the gates of heaven NO "person" can get us into heaven just our Lord Jesus Christ there is NO other way...
Probably Vestal's last recording, early 2003, just about 2 months after Howard went to heaven. What a wonderful voice and testimony for our Lord. I love Vestal and Howard Goodman.
No this was March 11, 2003, in Austin TX. Potter House filming, but it was both Vestal and Jake's last Homecoming. Vestal didn't appear in another due to schedule, and Jake didn't appear in another due to poor health. Vestal died in December of 2003, and Jake died in January 2004. About 8 days from eachother. A story from the old days says that Vestal was Jake's sweetheart before she was Howard's. Howard came and took her from under Jake's spell while he was on a singing trip. It was always a running joke between them. Jake was a designated pallbearer at Vestals funeral, which was New Years Day 2004, yet he was in hospital at the time, he would pass away 3 days later.
@@garrettbrooks6576 Thank you Garrett! Thanks for the additional interesting information. I appreciate it. I loved Vestal & Howard, as well as Jake, and all of the Happy Goodmans.
She was so faithfull and so special! We thank you, queen Vestal for your beautiful testamony of a great life! You are now with Jesus who you served woth so much passion! We miss you!!!!
Sitting here watching this coverage of Russia attacking those wonderful people of Ukraine put me in mind of this song, drawing.on the power and mercy of god, praying for peace and understanding, healing of the nations somehow, and I wanted to hear Vestal sing it. Her voice has always soothed my soul. May this end soon, because he is watching from afar. I don’t want to witness more pain, I’m hoping for a quick return
Jesus is the sweetest name I know, And He’s just the same as His lovely name, And that’s the reason why I love Him so; Oh, Jesus is the sweetest name I know. His name is wonderful His name is wonderful His name is wonderful Jesus my Lord. He is the mighty King Master of everything His name is wonderful Jesus my Lord. He's the Great Shepherd The Rock of all ages Almighty God is He Bow down before Him Love and adore Him His name is wonderful Jesus my Lord. Mashup of: Jesus is the sweetest name & His name is wonderful!
Do you want to talk about somebody who has direct access into the throne room, that is Vestal Goodman! Read about it all, fascinating life fascinating book. I love this woman
