Family Bible - Willie Nelson & Johnny Cash

[@picnmixmusic]

This is a beautiful song. Like bricks and mortar built the house, the Holy Bible built the home.

[@DemoDick115]

i still have my family bible which dates back to the eighteen hundreds, it has ornate wood covers and is very beautiful but terribly worn. in the middle it has spaces for births, deaths, and marriages. Ours was so full we had to start writing them down on loose-leaf paper and putting in the book. i rember when my grandma died and were seeing who the bible was going to go to, i had the great honor of getting it and i cherish it deeply. God Bless

[@wolfedavid3700]

yes children this is real music...........if you dont hsave to look at willy............

[@OriginalJoseyWales]

How I wish more families had a family bible. Many parents don't teach their children anything about the bible these days.

[@melanielinkous8746]

My dear friends, Dan & Pat used to sing this song on our front porch, at my Daddy's request. They are all passed now. 💔

[@joyrutherford4899]

I hear this song and it reminds me of my Dad, I remember every Sunday evening round about 6:30pm from I could understand as a child my Dad would read the Bible for us and then we would all listen to Bill Graham's 30 minute radio program. Missed those days. R.I.P Dad.

[@vestinaescontrias2889]

Very nice song by the best singers

[@AradiaSilvermoon]

This was my Grandma's favorite song and it was played at her funeral two years ago. During the Martin family Christmas my Uncle Harold played the guitar while several of us sang this song. Now whenever I hear it I think of my family.

[@araydog]

This song means a lot to ms. This was my granddad. I loved his evening devotions after dinner. So thankful for those times now that he has passed. I will continue the tradition of this

[@orangehornet57]

What a great song! I remember our family Bible. Many families wrote births, weddings, and deaths in the front. I wonder if Willie ever tried to buy the song back. Happy 80th birthday Willie! RIP Johnny.

[@donnadowning2303]

Thank you for sharing this recording from an old VH1 concert. Two treasured singer/songwriters, a small stage with an audience. No prepared program--just a jam session between two friends. I have listened to the album endlessly.

[@BCRification]

A priceless tune that Willie sold for a mere $50.00 back in the day! Thanks for posting this one.

[@CountryJukebox56]

Nothing greater than hearing two legends sing some good ole gospel!!

[@moproducer]

Willie didn't mention that he sold the rights to this song the day he wrote it back in the early '50s, for ten bucks. He was behind on his bar tab and convinced Walter Breeland to take the song. Breeland later shared the writing credit with Paul Buskirk and Claude Gray. That was one bar tab that Willie should have worked off washin' dishes. The song has been covered by more country artists than just about any other.

[@nwtigerwoodard1471]

Love this beautifully done. And I was brought up with the Bible so thankful.

[@roxyarmendariz4979]

GOD ENLIGHTEN WILLY NELSON WITH THIS SONG, AND HE BECOME BLESS ! Johnny and Willie Are fantastic together!

[@johnquinn926]

[@granlund58]

Fantastic song about The Family Bible.

[@diannh6316]

Probably be less cops showing up @ homes.. God is - Always God. He changes not. Hallelujah. Love ❤️ you Willie. Miss Johnny too.

[@TheChairsniffer]

This song never fails to make me cry. So moving and warm, just great songwriting. And I'm agnostic by the way :) Like SonnyHavnaNelson says, just enjoy. Peace

[@williammoeder9535]

God bless you both...

[@johnlawrence349]

Beautiful song by two of the greatest singers.

[@mechcavandy986]

Our house is about to flood on the White River in Arkansas now. The first thing I got out was my great grandfather's family Bible. I wrapped it in a plastic trash bag to stay dry. Some things can't be replaced.

[@edwardmcallister3260]

Indian Andy How did everything turn out?

[@catdaddy3302]

Edward McAllister we made it just fine. It got almost up to our porch. Thanks for asking.

[@zoe-mc3gs]

Bless you

[@thetruthchannel349]

Amazing how we found out what really means something when we think we're going to lose everything

[@danimaclin8063]

I was living in jonesboro at the time. Hope everything wasnt destroyed

[@BonnieStoner]

This never happened for me and I didn't do it for my child, but now that I'm old, I want to share this with the children.

[@clairebethcalvert7624]

This is my life for you, I live in a house that has a lot of music throughout, but everyday when it's all over we all turn back to the family bible and memory's of mine come to life. I love you all even though I am only 14 years old.

[@martintreder3653]

[@donaldlarter3892]

Lindsay: The person who denies God exists may simply fail to appreciate the wonder, complexity, intricacy, beauty, and splendor of God's creation. While there are many "arguments" (some more effective than others) to "prove" God's existence, none is convincing to the faithless. "Faith," the Bible says, "is the assurance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen." God's creation--the seen--may point us to God--the unseen, but only Jesus, the God-Man, is the way to God. God bless u

[@holyroller4u]

Amen brother. That is beautiful

[@guns4Armageddon]

People repent of your sins so that the holy spirit may Dwele in your hearts. May god show us whats beyond us and give us strength to over come obstacles in life. May god help us amen

Why did VH1 never release this on dvd.. only ever released on cd. Would have been memorable to watch these 2 together.

[@stecklein7]

Love this

[@donaldlarter3892]

Jesus never pushed his teachings down anyone's throat. He simply encouraged people to believe in him. He left no doubt, however, that he alone was God in flesh. We sing at Christmas: Veiled in flesh, the God-head see; Hail, incarnate Deity; born as man with man to dwell; Jesus, our Emmanuel. Hark, the herald angels sing, glory to the new born King." Other sacred writings may contain some truth, but only the Bible contains these words of Jesus: "I am the way, the truth, and the life."

[@sgofala]

[@donaldlarter3892]

The Bible: a "collection of storys and nothing more"? I don't think so. The Bible, aside from being the world's perennial bestseller, is the most well-attested, historically accurate, cohesive, inspiring, and truthful book ever written. It is God-breathed. There are many sacred writings in this world of ours; they all contain some truth. Only the Bible, however, contains these words of Jesus: "I am the way, the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through me" (John 14:6).

[@GBeret83]

The apostle Paul, in one of his letters to the Corinthians said, "when I was a child, I thought as a child, I spake as a child, I understood as a child. But when I grew to be a man, I put away childish things." I would argue all of these "there is no God, and the Bible is just a collection of stories" comments is purely childish, and to those people I would say some things are true whether you believe them or not, or whether you want to them to be or not. Someday, Jesus Christ will return and every knee shall bow and every tongue shall confess, believe that!

[@patriciafoster1009]

[@robertbrooks7160]

It's really a sad and faithless generation we are living in...You tell them the bible truths and the love of Jesus who is the only savior of their soul and they curse you & reject it...... such a great salvation.....Jesus paid the sin debt.......if you reject his gift, then you send yourself into everlasting torment.......please don't put it off.....for you are not promised another day....remember John 3:16.

[@MrLANDRONICS]

imagine a world without races that would be peace forever

[@lovesings2us]

I like to ask God to help me see each person I meet, the way God sees them - to see the beauty of each different person, no matter who they are or what they've done.

[@rallen0]

No, thank goodness, it is not. We have been fashioned and formed by a loving God who gave up His life to render us whole, joyful, and open the way for love, peace, and hope. We reach that only through faith. But trusting to that possibility, and grasping that promise, leads us into light, truth, beauty, goodness and joy that is wholly unattainable otherwise. Ask the universe if God is truly there, then hush and listen closely... Blessings and grace to thee.

[@Eastbound84]

I don't understand the comments regarding the transition from A to F sharp minor. Can someone explain?

[@halfogre7843]

guitar notes

[@Eastbound84]

Tim Shumate I understand they are guitar notes but why did Cash say he would look at his watch during the transition.

[@halfogre7843]

Brad Thomas probably cause willie can play the guitar about 100 times better than johnny I believe willie is one of the best acustic guitarist ever

[@Eastbound84]

Tim Shumate thanks Tim. I believe the same way but didn't know if I was just biased because Willie is my favorite musician ever.

[@SuzukiRider93]

@OriginalJoseyWales how is that a bad thing?

[@earlthesquirrle]

@MrLANDRONICS A world without Satan and hate would be really awesome.that would solve all of our problems...

[@treswardministries]

No, he asked, "What key do you do it in?"

[@joeymediauk]

@OriginalJoseyWales Thats because fairytales are for children, not adults

[@1cor2and2]

Oh! Yes God Lives! Just by your protests that there is no God proves that there is a God. And within you is a God shaped void that only He can fill. Turn from sin ( Repent) and put all your trust and Faith in the Lord Jesus Christ and He will Save you!

[@iluvnickiminaj48]

I can promise you that Johnny Cash and Willie will tell you there is only the BIBLE. that is the inspired word of GOD. Go ahead and make lite of it. Like it doesn't matter, but it does. There are all completely different.

[@candw87]

@SonnyHavnaNelson WELL SPOKEN MY OWN SENTIMENTS

[@OriginalJoseyWales]

@DrVegasIII I am aware of the atrocities committed in the name of religion. But a defence must be mounted for the wisdom of the principles laid down in the bible such as loving ones enemies, honouring ones father and mother.

[@fredscheetz1451]

how it could be not how was

[@kellykitkat40]

I guess, for them, the important thing is that everybody has his or her own toothbrush... "One family bible - I will read and teach - you listen and obey." And then they wonder why she filed for divorce and the kids refuse to visit ... Sometimes, it helps to state the obvious.. Johnny Cash ; Willie Nelson : There is not a single verse in the bible that they understood, is there ? Well, every kid begins in that boat, does he not? But some desire a yacht, to be rich (wise like Solomon). To wit, his name is NOT Jesus, but the Angel Gabriel said that they were to CALL his name Jesus. Some, did the Lord not seek to open their ears. Nor did such seek Him. And so the destruction of the Native Americans, was to some degree, inevitable, to keep another generation from being born into darkness - the absence of light. Yet, I remember reading that Tecumseh did "go to church", but they kicked him out because he would not stop drinking and gambling. As if those things are immoral.. The Apostle Paul wrote, All things are lawful for me, but I will not be brought under the power of any. Maybe Tecumseh did not catch that last part? : "but I will not be brought under the power of any". Their name was Adam : he only called her name Eve, after the Fall. .. Though all were descended from the man and the woman in the garden, "racists" (Eugenicists) have been violating women and abusing males, for centuries, calling them "of Ishmael", "of canaan", "of philistine", et cetra. They have judged others on the basis of genetics, and not behaviour. Though of one blood did He make them all. They seem to think that "the holy men" should have many wives, and kill the other males, and that this will produce a godly nation. I guess that is why "whites" do not put their money in an Investment Firm managed by an "Aussie" - because they are "descended from criminals". Idiotus Stupendis. ( A positive correlation between two variables does not imply causality. ) Who gets "the family bible" when the family is split apart? Obviously, the one who desires His Word, the most. .. The Law calls certain behaviour abomination, and so the Jews who kept the Law were shielded from they who did not keep the Law. That, is love, is it not? See, john 3 : 19-21, kjv.

[@catdaddy3302]

I believe Willie sold the rights to this song for $200. Maybe less.

[@sumalennox]

We must treat each other with respect and kindness....but as far as salvation, Jesus and the His Word, the Bible, is the only Truth. Jesus is Truth. The only way to have our sins forgiven is through the fact that He died on the cross to take our sins away...but now we have to repent and acknowledge that we are sinners and that He is the only savior. All other books have tidbits of Truth, whereas Jesus is completely Truth.

@DrVegasIII 11 For this is the message which YOU have heard from [the] beginning, that we should have love for one another; 12 not like Cain, who originated with the wicked one and slaughtered his brother. And for the sake of what did he slaughter him? Because his own works were wicked, but those of his brother [were] righteous. 1 John 3: 10,11

[@SonnyHavnaNelson]

Bible, Koran, Torah, Guru Granth Sahib, Bhagavadgita, Mahabharata, Tao or whatever religious book, text or scripture you consider sacred, basically agrees on how we humans wanna be treated 'n' how we wanna treat each other so why don't we all just cut the crap, kick back 'n' listen to a great song written by the master himself, Willie Nelson, instead of pushin' our different religions, philosophies 'n' opinions down each others throats?!:)

[@OriginalJoseyWales]

@DrVegasIII It is the failure of man to apply the wisdom of the scriptures that has resulted in these atrocities. And the failure of man in no way nullifies the wisdom of God as set out in the bible. In that way the bible will always be vindicated.

@LionessGG66 Willie is a believer in Jesus Christ, him smoking pot, partying, drinking, and fucking wild women has nothing to do with his heavenly reward. He treats people good and he loves Jesus Christ. that's the free gift of salvation my friend.

@SonnyHavnaNelson because you just pushed your opinion and philosophy! lol!

[@Wajlonis]

@EdwarDixie I don't want to disappoint you, but Allah is, according to their beliefs only a different name of the same God we believe in. They even believe in Jesus Christ - although not believing in him being a Son of God may be a mistake. Why don't we just all acknowledge that, despite all the differences, we're all children of one God, whatever he is called?

Hey I'm all for respecting whatever decent someone wants to believe. But when you start putting the Bible on par with the Koran just b/c your politically correct teachers tell you that then I gots to say NAH. One book is of God. The other is man made.
