LYRICS:
Up above my head I hear music in the air
Up above my head there's a melody so bright
And fair
I can hear when I'm all alone
Even in those times when I feel all hope is gone
Up above my head I hear joybells ringing
Up above my head I hear angels singing
There must be a God somewhere
There must be a God somewhere
I hear music in the air
I hear music everywhere
There must be a God somewhere
#Gaither #UpAboveMyHead #Vevo

Love how peaceful these songs used to be. Songs conveyed meaning back then. Hello from Jan 2024.

[@JO-gw4bw]

Who listens to classical music like this on the 3rd day of June,2023. No one but me. This song moved me today. God, I do believe for a miracle for this month and beyond🙏💯😇

[@WienArtist]

The atheists who gave it thumbs down are singing this song: Down below my feet, there's no music I can hear. Down below my feet, there's no music I can hear. Down below my feet, there's no music I can hear. Since I don't believe in God, There won't be music anywhere. Shout for joy in the Lord, O you righteous! Praise befits the upright. Give thanks to the Lord with the lyre; make melody to him with the harp of ten strings! Sing to him a new song; play skillfully on the strings, with loud shouts. For the word of the Lord is upright, and all his work is done in faithfulness. - Psalm 33:1-4

[@jasonirelan-ig5fl]

According to the Bible, atheists are fools because the fool has said in his heart there is no God.

[@MistyBailey-ee3rk]

Below the feet is a lying 👿

[@Doublemg12]

Jake Hess was so happy and filled with pure joy

[@crcronin7899]

I'm here August 2024. Hard to believe that Vestal, George and Jake crossed over to sing along with that music up there about 20 years ago. Literally within a year of each other. Thank you for the wonderful music. It lives on, inspiring those of us still pressing on towards our eternal home. Until we all meet in Glory on day, stay on the narrow path and God Bless. Jesus is Lord!

[@bethwhite2420]

My 3 year old son listens to this 6 times a day!!

[@thatsmetaylorm]

Really brings tears to my eyes, they are definitely missed! Only one George Younce and Jake Hess!! They always put a smile on my face! I love Gaither!

Just Praying To Grant Us The 2nd Chance To Them Live in His Presence😭😭

[@JO-gw4bw]

They don't make them like this any more....George Younce, Jake Hess, Vestal Goodman, Rex Nelon. Some of the best there ever was!

[@TinasheMachimbidza]

George sounding like the Big Chief is amazing and adding more bass singers was amazing The Statesmen Quartet would be proud

[@mountaingoat77m84]

George Younce, Jake Hess, Rex Nelon and Vestal Goodman will be missed in 2020 I just love the heart and soul they put in every song they sung.

It’s so true, “they don’t make ‘‘em like this anymore”, now they are created as Josh Turner, David Phelps, The Redeemed Quartet, and many others, God knows what He’s doing. Praise Him for Whom He’s given us in this era!

[@jeffreese4194]

It's amazing how these performers can still really sing when they are up in age! Most people can't

[@lidiaelena100]

Up above my head there is music in the air Up above my head there is music in the air I really do believe there's a heaven somewhere Well music makes the world go 'round, That's the way to be happy that much I found, Sing a song and be happy and free, So turn around children and follow me. Well I have a soul that's weary and worn, But I heard the music since the day I was born, And I remember what the good Lord said, Now I hear His music, and its, Up above my head there is music in the air Up above my head there is music in the air Up above my head there is music in the air, oh yeah! And I really do believe, I really do believe There's a heaven somewhere

I recently caught the Gaithers on KZbin. And now I'm hooked. I've always enjoyed "church" music but the gospel music I've been enjoying watching the Gaithers just warms my soul immensely.

Up Above My Head was written on Easter of 1950. My father wrote the chorus in German. He was looking forward to being part of the heavenly choir. The Sunday School teacher Vera McNealey repeated the thought in Low German. The next verse was written by Donald Strickland. Vera McNealey wrote the next part in Gedolic. The descant was written in French by Ethel Strickland. The next chorus was translated into Gaelic by Hilda Ahlemann. The descant for this part was written in Gedolic by Ethel Strickland. The chorus was written in German by Frederick Ahlemann. The next part was written in Gaelic by Ella Butler Martin. Mary Ahlemann continued the chorus in Gaelic. The descant part was written in Dutch by Doris Strickland. Earl Strickland Sr translated the chorus into Dutch. Daniel Ferris wrote the descant in the Pamunkey Native American language. Phyllis Strickland replied in Catawba Native American language. The Daniel Ferris repeats in Dutch. Then Earl Strickland Sr responded in Dutch. Then Ethel Strickland repeated in German. Then the whole Ferris family was in unison in Gaelic. Then the entire Strickland was in unison in Dutch.

George Younce's voice was amazing. So many great singers in this performance. Loved seeing David Phelps (min 1:16) in the background shake his head in amazement as George was singing in his deepest voice. Jake's smile was uplifting and his voice brought the entire audience into a real happy place. I'm just recently hooked on many of the Gaither Vocal Band performances on KZbin.
