Fourth Man [Live]

[@MegaPathogen]

When I was a kid my Dad cut and sold firewood. On the way home from the timber on Sunday nights he used to put the Statler Bros Gospel tape in the 8 track and we would listen to it on the way home. I guess it was his way of making sure we had some time to worship when we had to spend the day cutting wood. He is gone now, died just after midnight on December 26; this brings back memories.

[@johnroshan2156]

God bless you dad for leading you in the right path despite the odds

[@SFBeisser]

My parents used to play the Statler Brothers on Sundays to and from church. I've loved them since I was a kid.

This is my favorite story in the Bible. Just knowing it was true, amazes me to no end.

The son of God was the fourth man in the firey furnace----before he was born in Bethlehem----AMAZING & REMARKABLE☆

[@TheScottEF]

Indeed! Although in the Old Testament, the "son of God" was used several times to refer to high prophets of their faith, here, the prophet Daniel.

[@DrelvanianGuardOffic]

@@TheScottEF Even in Genesis, the angels that came down to earth to be with women (leading to the nephilim) were referred to as the "Sons of God".

Can't wait to hear Harold sing again the bass ,when we get to heaven .

[@oldoldpilgrim7898]

Jimmy Fortune was a fairly new addition to The Statlers when I saw them in Augusta, Ga. When he was introduced, Harold leaned to the microphone and said Jimmy was an elf.

[@EllieFuentes-Vega]

Three teenage boys from my school sang this for our Christmas program a few months ago they sounded awesome, and now it’s nice to hear the original version😊😊😊

[@welshchristian]

I loved this group. The bass is amazing.

[@corneliadenninger5395]

RIP Harold Reid.

[@cjstone3140]

Harold passed away April 2020 but less than a year later this awesome group sang my dad into heaven and their version of Will the Circle be Unbroken at his celebration of life service. I now enjoy Harold's and Don's sons, Wilson Fairchild, keeping it Country! Thank you guys for being a special part of my life ❤

[@underdarock7164]

Of course..just my opinion...but I doubt in my lifetime there will never be a greater group of singers..I regret I only got to see them twice!!

[@Pickinbuddy]

This song was written by Arthur "Guitar Boogie" Smith! This one of my favorite Bible stories....talk about a 'sermon in a song'...what a great lesson!

[@shannonfisher5829]

Have always loved these gentlemen and now Harold has made heaven's choir even better. Such sweet and humble guys

[@darlenestepp4116]

Sweet childhood memories with my mommy! She’s on hospice now with heart failure and I spend my day with her celebrating in music. She doesn’t have the strength to clap or dance but a smile comes on her face!

[@jimrosendahl5099]

What fantastic voice do I have variety you have the crew Mendes base and the tremendous height almost soprano voice it's a high tenor of Jimmy Fortune

[@FlatheadV81934]

That's the highest I've seen Harold (Bass) sing

[@endersstare328]

FlatheadV81934 That wasn't Harold, you mean that's the lowest Jimmy's sang.

[@downtownjerrybrown6053]

EndersStare if u look through, 1:09-1:19 Harold sings high but Jimmy does sing at the low end of his tenor voice

[@darrellpotter6710]

it kinda sounds like a U.S. Marines song..."They were defended by the fourth man in the fire....THEY WOULDN'T BEND THEY WOULDN'T BOW THEY WOULDN'T BURN" I saw this done by a quartet of MARINES...before they sang it the one MARINE explained how this song inspired their units motto "Never Bend...Never Bow"

[@user-dx8nl9qm9d]

[@RangerSylv]

Wow. I never realized that was Harold singing in his high register. I always thought that was Phil.

Here is a story from the Good Book we know A story 'bout a miracle that happened long ago We hope that you'll take courage when temptation you meet There's somebody watchin' you who's strong when you're weak. They wouldn't bend They held onto the will of God so we are told They wouldn't bow They would not bow their knees to the idol made of gold They wouldn't burn They were protected by the fourth man in the fire They wouldn't bend, they wouldn't bow They wouldn't burn. Now the prophet Daniel tells about three men who walked with God Shadrack, Meshack and Abednego before the wicked king they stood And the King commanded them bound and thrown In the firey furnace that day. But the fire was so hot that the men were slain That forced them on their way. Now when the three were cast in and the King rose up to witness this awful fate He began to tremble at what he saw, and in astonished tones he spake. Did we not cast three men bound into the midst a' that fire? For lo, I see four men unhurt, unbound and walkin' down there There's Shadrack, Meshack and Abednego in the firey coals they trod And the form of the fourth man that I see is like the Son of God. They wouldn't bend They held onto the will of God so we are told They wouldn't bow They would not bow their knees to the idol made of gold They wouldn't burn They were protected by the fourth man in the fire They wouldn't bend, they wouldn't bow They wouldn't burn. They wouldn't bend They held onto the will of God so we are told They wouldn't bow They would not bow their knees to the idol made of gold They wouldn't burn They were protected by the fourth man in the fire They wouldn't bend, they wouldn't bow They wouldn't burn. They wouldn't bend They held onto the will of God so we are told They wouldn't bow They would not bow their knees to the idol made of gold They wouldn't burn They were protected by the fourth man in the fire They wouldn't bend, they wouldn't bow They wouldn't burn...

We are being forced to CHOOSE either Jesus or to bend and bow to our government nowadays. Will we, Jesus Christ’s blood bought, born again Christian children stay standing for AND with Jesus, OR will we cower and turn our backs and hearts from HIM? And as for being told/ordered to stop going to church to praise and worship The Lord together, just go to church and tell the evil ones that you and your fellow congregation members are gathered together to “protest” AGAINST SIN😊.
