Forever and Ever, Amen (1987) is probably his best known song, and it is much happier. It won a Grammy for best country song and stayed at #1 on the charts for multiple weeks.

[@johnpaulbacon8320]

Forever and Ever Amen is among his Iconic songs - can't forget about Deeper then the holler , Point of Light , On the other hand are other's and there's more

Randy is super special. He is still around but had a severe stroke and is unable to sing but he helps where he can and encourages other artists. He has such a gentle and sweet soul.

[@TheTish]

I had no idea he had a stroke. How horrible. I've always enjoyed his music, his vocals. So sad.

Randy is a legend. He suffered a major stroke a few years ago. He was an award show a couple of years ago and sang a couple of words. It was a miracle from what I understand.

"I Told You So", "Forever and Ever Amen", "Diggin Up Bones", "On the Other Hand", "Deeper Than the Holler", are awesome by Randy Travis

[@emileebacon9422]

Randy Travis's duet with Carrie Underwood of "I Told You So" is absolutely beautiful.

[@Gutslinger]

"Promises" shouldn't be overlooked.

[@jimreilly917]

Her reaction was everything. It’s not what you take when you leave this world behind you…it’s what you leave behind you when you go. When Travis lost his voice to a stroke, country music was impoverished.

[@chrisdutton2975]

Randy is an absolute legend whose heyday was mostly in the mid 80s to early 90s. When this song was released in 2002, it had been a few years since he'd had a hit. It's from an album of gospel and other spiritual songs, which music industry people discouraged him from making. It ended up being one of the biggest albums of his career, built mostly on the success of this song. It makes just as much impact on most people as it did for you.

[@chrisedwards7095]

I love the song "Forever and Ever Amen" but then I could listen to Randy all day.

[@garygoodman4342]

This happened to me last week, and I've got to share this story, not to pat myself on the back. But to show that you need to listen for God's voice. This morning, I got up a little later than I would like. Being off today, I was planning on going to WalMart early to get a few things so I wouldn't have to deal with the crowd. Usually if I can't get there by 9, I'll go to Kroger. They have the things I can use on certain dishes, just don't carry the brands I like. Anyway, I got up around 11 or so and was getting ready to go to Kroger, when I heard this voice telling me to go to WalMart. So, I went and got the things I usually get and the crowd really wasn't that bad for this time of year. As I was headed back to my car, an elderly lady came up to me and ask if I had a jump box. Of course I always have one with me so I said yes. She ask if I would jump her and her husband's van. Of course I said yes. Anyway I got them started and she ask me what she owed me. I gave my usual answer of a million dollars, and told her just have a blessed day. She told me they had been asking people for 45 minutes if they had one, and no one did, or wouldn't stop or whatever. She told me I was like their Angel. And I thought to myself, it's been about 45 minutes since I heard the voice. You see, this woman was asking God for help. He didn't magically make their car start, but He sent the message. I was raised to know to be obedient. I didn't know why I was going to WalMart other than to get a few things. But I was the answer to someone who had ask God for help. I went to WalMart to get groceries, but when I saw the smile on that couple's faces when their car started, I received a whole lot more. So please listen for His voice, and be obedient. You just may be the answer to someone's prayer.

Amber, in many ways you remind me of my daughter. Free spirited, kind, beautiful and she too is an educator. She teaches middle school band and she loves it. She loves her kids and they love her as well. Since she was little other kids and babies would gravitate to her. Right before winter break some kids were asked in their other class to write what they were grateful for, several of her boys wrote that they were grateful for having her for their band teacher. Talk about a great way to start your break. God bless all educators out there.

No song of his is bad and some are truly fantastic. His voice is so smooth and the song “promises” is so good and a kind of confession that hits hard and many for sure can relate to it.

[@visaman]

This song dropped in 2002. Travis went on a tour to promote it and he joined the John Hagee crusade. They came to Vancouver, Canada, and my mom and me went. I was familiar with Hagee, but, I don't think my mom was, she wanted to see Randy Travis, and it was free, so we went. My dad passed away a few months previous and we were both in shock still. The service was a prosperity gospel, and it was quite different from what we were used to, but, Randy was very good, and he sang this of course. My mother was excited to see him after the concert. My mom passed in 2019, and this song will always remind me of her, and that special night.

Randy Travis had what many argue is the best voice in country music... smooth, pure, perfect pitch. And he sang with such feeling. I've listened to dozens of other musicians try to cover his songs, and no one comes close. Three Wooden Crosses was released in 2002, so this is quite late in Travis' career. It's also atypical in that it deals with death. Most of his songs are upbeat. Although sad, I love this song for the underlying message; invest in others. If you like his voice and style, there are dozens of earlier songs you might consider... "Forever and Ever, Amen" is probably his most popular. Jay mentioned the richness of Travis' voice. Good ear, young man. I agree. I can think of only two other male country artists that can compete with Travis' vocal quality; Don Williams and Keith Whitley. Amber! Nicely said, young lady. You've invested in us, and we are fully invested in you.

If you like Randy Travis, you would like Ricky Van Shelton as well.

It's not only what you leave behind, but what you store up in heaven, as in serving the Lord, and others.

My mom had a massive crush on Randy Travis back in the day. He has a deep catalog of really great songs.

That storytelling man... and yeah, hanging out with you two is pretty cool, too. Sweet.

My recently departed son covered this song for his high school talent show a couple years ago and won. They wouldn't let him sing the word "hooker" so he improvised. I'm still not sure exactly what word he used to substitute, but I'm still sorting through his recordings. My surviving son and and I are crafting his wooden cross right now and should have it in place right after Christmas. A great 'pick-me-up' from a song like this is as follows. I would appreciate your reaction to this song by Blackberry Smoke featuring Jimmy Hall: kzbin.info/www/bejne/nYm0iaihppuqp9k

There is some ways to keep warm without heat guys. You can curl up on the girls mattresses in the living room and make a tent and stay warm that way. The smaller area the easier to heat. Good luck. Wish you would have done SHelter Me But once again nope.
