I think you just mean that America had more Christian values back then, which is correct. Between 1960 and 1990, an average of about 70% of Americans identified as Christian.

At my age of 62 I grew up listening to these very talented men! Now they all have gone home and I can only imagine the reunion they have constantly! These men had more talent and godliness in one strand of their hair and all the country music today will ever have in their lifetime! I'm sure this was in the 70s and if I had a time machine I would go back to that era and then I would destroy the time machine and stay there! Thank you so much for sharing this video!

[@michaelwaters8879]

My mom and Dad used to frequently sing this at home when I was a lad. Dad had played in a 3-man country/bluegrass group in the 40’s. And Mom sang the backup on this song. She was a part of a singing duo “Jean and Christine” on live radio in the 40’s. The station DJ was Murray Hamilton who later became a movie actor ( he played the mayor in Jaws). How I wish I had recorded their harmonious voices, but they have “Gone Home”. As I grow older, this song frequently comes to mind. Miss you, Mom and Dad.❤️🩷❤️

One of my best songs from the wonderful 1970’s. I have birds here in the house. I care for them throughly and love them all completely. When I live a day where one of them has “ gone home”, I will play this awesome song, sung by the finest HeeHaw could offer, and while returning them back to the earth, I sing with these fine Christian men... “ they have FLOWN home. Lost a Beloved little blue parakeet overnite an older boy, made him comfortable He slept at cage bottom on a soft white washcloth, just having finished a cracker, which he loved. Found him this morning, well his earthly self. He was taken home (FLOWN home) by Our Ever Loving Great Creator, to be held in His nailed pierced hands, to be welcomed in to Paradise ForEver, and to be re-paired with his loving mate, Sunshine, who left him/ me last year.The great sorrow of missing my little BlueSky is being overtaken by the joy that he’s with the Savior, and his loving mate he missed so much😢CB
