I've told all my troubles goodbye, Goodbye to each tear and each sigh. This world where I roam cannot be my home, I'm bound for that home in the sky. I walk and I talk with my Lord, I feast every day on His word, Heaven is near and I can't stay here Goodbye world, goodbye. Now don't you weep for me when I'm gone Cause I won't have to leave here alone. And when I hear that last trumpet sound My feet won't stay on the ground. I'm gonna rise with a shout, gonna fly, Gonna rise with my Lord to the sky. Heaven is near and I can't stay here, Goodbye world, goodbye. I won't have the blues anymore When I step across to that shore. And I'll never pine for I'll leave behind My heartaches and cares ever more. A day maybe two then goodbye, Tommorow I'll rise up and fly. Heaven is near and I can't stay here, Goodbye world, goodbye.
Very beautiful, watching jack, reviewing videos of his friends from startemen quartet, I'm in Belford purple-Brazil on February 12, 2021, waiting for the vaccine.
I have these videos and have listened and watched several times. This music track throws me a little because that doesn't sound like Hovie playing piano. Too jazzy. I wonder if it might have been the jazz bands regular piano player on this. Opinion anyone?

I've told all my troubles goodbye,
Goodbye to each tear and each sigh.
This world where I roam cannot be my home,
I'm bound for that home in the sky.
I walk and I talk with my Lord,
I feast every day on His word,
Heaven is near and I can't stay here
Goodbye world, goodbye.
Now don't you weep for me when I'm gone
Cause I won't have to leave here alone.
And when I hear that last trumpet sound
My feet won't stay on the ground.
I'm gonna rise with a shout, gonna fly,
Gonna rise with my Lord to the sky.
Heaven is near and I can't stay here,
Goodbye world, goodbye.
I won't have the blues anymore
When I step across to that shore.
And I'll never pine for I'll leave behind
My heartaches and cares ever more.
A day maybe two then goodbye,
Tommorow I'll rise up and fly.
Heaven is near and I can't stay here,
Goodbye world, goodbye.

Another great one.
Is this bass Chief Wetherington?
Yes.
Yeppers peppers!!!
I taped this of the tv when it came on TBN, don't thin I have it anymore though. Wish I had it on DVD.
The Gaither's sell this DVD on their website, I believe.
@@zigmeala Which one, there’s a few…..
I would love to hear the rest of what Bill Gaither said. Anyone know what Gaither tape this was from
Hovie Lister & The Statesmen: An American Classic | 1995

Does someone have this song with The Kingsmen Quartet? Where is it on CZcams?
Does anyone know who the man, pictured on the right @ 0:08, with the white hair and glasses is?
I believe that is Mosie Lister, Hovie's brother.
zigmeala Wow, I had never heard of him Thank you!
zigmeala I think you're right that it's Mosie Lister. He's not related to Hovie, but he's the author of this song.
IT IS MOSIE BUT NOT HOVIE BROTHER
