I'll Fly Away - The Pressley Girls

[@ellajackson1400]

It is so good that in today's world, to see young people appreciate life and the wonderful world we live in. You all are blessed and we are blessed to have met you

[@thepressleygirls]

Thank you 😊

[@maryeliason1504]

This song is such a comfort. I am 76 & sometimes I don't like to think about the end because my family is far away., BUT this song makes me happy cause I will fly away. ❤️ I often sing it out. We all can get anxious IF WE LET OURSELVES! Thank you so much. Love to you & your family. ❤️💕 Can be so sad to see a house crumble. But it will go back to the earth. Sensitive of you to think about it.

[@thepressleygirls]

Thank you! 🥰💕🙏

[@jamesa.rodriguez8598]

Dearest Sister Mary E, though we know where we're going, it can be sad to think of leaving this life, even with its trials and tribulations. I have a large family, most close by, yet distant, due their walk or lack of a walk with Jesus. Not long ago, I was among them, so I'm not judging, but in continual prayer that we will all (you, yours and the Brethren) meet again in the glorious presence of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, where there will be no more sadness, tears, hate, oppression, hunger, fear, lies, loneliness. Only love, true love! James 1:17 "Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and comes down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow of turning." Hallelujah by n by, we'll fly away! I hope to know you there Sister, in the non-smoking section. 😊 p.s. I thought the same thing regarding the house and their thoughts of its current state.

[@marckuykendall2624]

They aren't out of tune like my relatives that I heard singing when I was a younger. One standing, three on a bench, all 3 playing and singing. One pumping the pedal, on a piano thing with knobs in German. But back them them ol' gals sound like Angels to me. I love to hear them now as much as I love hearing this. These gals here no outta tune.

[@Teresia12]

One of my Mama's favorites. She went about her days singing hymns. She also loved "Love Lifted Me" and "Victory in Jesus" We sang them all at her funeral. 💞💞

[@marckuykendall2624]

Ain't they great.

[@larrydraper4451]

This one brought tears to my eyes. My late wife loved the sound track to "O Brother, Where Art Thou" and this song is on it. She loved the ole timey music like that. You did a great job. Thank you.

[@thepressleygirls]

[@TheRealNighthawkBaby]

AMEN, yall beautiful saved my from suicide so literally saved my life , and maybe others , THANK YOU😢❤😊

[@thepressleygirls]

Bless you friend ❤️🙏

[@petermichelson3865]

You know what do cool about all the music you play girls? It’s the kind that truly touches your soul!!!

[@conniebaker1958]

So many of your gospel hymns take me way back when my family and I sang in church. Sometimes I think we lifted the roof off that old Baptist church. I’m crying but those Are happy tears. Ty 👏🙏 That is a cool old house., Be cute if it had a little picket fence around it and the grass mowed

[@maudegrey5038]

My mom has passed but I can hear my mom singing this song then she would say You are going to miss me when I’m gone 😊 sure do

[@thepressleygirls]

Amen! Very sweet. Thank you!

[@randy3064]

When my grandmother was on her death bed, She would say, Im going for for away, over and over again, BLESS HER ❤️

[@357bullfrog9]

Two young people in today's world out singing for the LORD is a true blessing to any family. I am proud of them and don't even know them

[@thepressleygirls]

Thank you! 🙏💕

[@dustyscott6590]

Wish there were more young folks like you in the country we are slowly losing . I'm from WNY an as far away from NYC as we are . It sucks ! So thank you much for being the way you two are .

[@dawnedwall5419]

This is one of my favorite songs. You girls did an amazing job singing s always. The scenery was beautiful. I enjoy seeing old things like this house, but also sad that something so beautiful is just rotting away. God bless you both. ❤🙏

[@jamesweaver9636]

You ladies are the real deal. Thank you so much for sharing. I miss the blue ridge mountains so much. Your voices take me right back!

[@laurelreinhardt5076]

Loved seeing the old house!

[@BobWiles-k3p]

My Mom used to sing this song in church, brings back sweet memories

[@CayucosDrStudios]

Keep the love and appreciation for Appalachia!

[@agoraphobicadam1171]

Ladies And Gentlemen....The Pressleys Have Left The Building. Sorry, I had an Elvis moment and couldn't resist. Thanks for a very enjoyable video.

[@thepressleygirls]

😂🙏💕

[@dereklea1183]

I could listen to both of you talk all day! When I hear y'all talk it kind of puts me at ease and makes me comfortable. I really miss the Appalachian accent. I live in the Central Savannah River area of Georgia, currently, but I grew up in Southeast Tennessee where Georgia, North Carolina and Tennessee all meet together. All Southern accents aren't created equal, for those of you that aren't from the South. Each area, in the South, has distinctive accents unique to that area. When I was growing up, I was able to distinguish an accent from different areas of my State as well as other Southern State's. Sometimes I still can if that person has a strong accent.

[@thepressleygirls]

Yes each place has different accents, thanks for watching! 💕🙏

[@jameshuggins4300]

I'm happy to see no down votes 🙂. This is my all time favorite hymm. Thanks from an old Arkansas hillbilly.

[@thepressleygirls]

💕🙏

[@bevava8424]

Such a blessing to hear you dear sisters sing. Thank you for sharing your wonderful God-given talents with us!

[@naturesmagik]

5:20...So many of those beautiful old homes with no one to enjoy them anymore.

[@arkyboy14]

My mom is from eastern Kentucky, and I remember her singing that song. She has that southern voice as well. Thank you.

[@harechick]

I love both of your smiles, they are like rays of sunshine .

[@thebriantrevorshow7124]

Listing to yall makes me hear that preacher preaching and smelling that Sunday fried chicken cooking. 😇

[@thepressleygirls]

Those are some good memories! 🥰

[@homespundevotions]

That old house is really something else. It is kind of eerie to see all their things in there just like they left them, and as you said, it makes you wonder why there was no one to come pick it up or care that it was left there. It really reinforces the vanity of accumulating a lot of this world's goods - we will all leave here one day, and we can't take any of it with us when we go. I am so happy you added this to the video. It was so interesting! I love you all so much and hope God will richly bless you for all you do!

[@thepressleygirls]

Yes it was kinda eerie, thanks for watching we love y’all!!🥰🙏💕

[@jonathanbriefcase2748]

What a fantastic and engaging performance. The scenic location and soaring harmonies were just right, quietly bringing the music to life… Thank you for doing the Lord’s work ✨

[@thepressleygirls]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@jeannettetilley5465]

I love abandoned houses so cool! I wonder what it was like when people lived there. We have one over 100 yrs old in Haskell Arkansas. I love drawing & painting old country homes.

[@slm3913]

Such a beautiful house. I hope someone that is blessed can come and restore it before it becomes an inhabitable home.

[@danielgarrison7693]

Thank you ladies! My grandmother always sung this song at every church event she could get to.

[@joygibson484]

On my way to work every day, I used to drive past an old homestead that had been torn down, but the front steps were left standing. I often wondered about the lady who once was so thrilled with having a new house that those steps led to. Life is always changing. Oh how I wish it didn't! I miss my grandparents so much!

[@dpmart3275]

Enjoyed keep it up Lady's always loved this song and the words my Mom played and sang this song all the time I can't wait to hear her sing it again God Bless Y'all family

[@codyrussow170]

I could listen to that fiddle all day long ,great job ladies !!

[@lorettataylor9902]

One of my son cody's favorite songs I'll fly away and nothing but the blood.

[@thepressleygirls]

Those are great songs!

[@KarenMedford-tl4ww]

This is one of my favorites and I want this sung at my funeral 🎉

[@phyllisarrington7436]

Hello from Henderson County. Your song was my Daddy's favorite. He died back in 2016. Your singing brought back happy memories for me

[@butterfly.933]

Best girls in the country are girls like ya'll. So wish I had married someone from your region. Made me cry, I love the music, and miss it. My Mom and Dad played all of your songs too. You are the best women god ever made.

[@thepressleygirls]

Thank you! 🙏🥰

[@rawhide851]

What a beautiful song! Conjures up memories of one of my favorite movies, Oh, Brother Where Art Thou. God bless you and your family.

[@gregscumberlachiakitchen]

You ladies, and your beautiful mama always put a smile on my face. Thank you for sharing your music, cooking and life with us all. God Bless

[@thepressleygirls]

Thank you so much 😍❤️👍

[@k.t.1641]

I've had this dang song stuck in my head for like 2 days now! At 3am I'm laying in bed like "😵‍💫 juuust a few more weary days and theennn illlll fllly awayyyy" lol

[@thepressleygirls]

Hahaha

[@miarosie]

3am here K.T. I know the feeling. 3:00

[@stevenarnold4433]

Everything about that was just totally beautiful reminds me very much of my childhood in the Ozarks

[@LittleHorses3]

Oh the stories those walls have to tell.... it always tugs my heart to see an abandoned house as those walls will eventually be gone

[@ConChaz100]

Oh how this bring Precious Memories for me My Mama's favorite. I come from a musical family my Daddy and his brothers all played music and SANG and my Mama would harmonies with them and then anyone even us kids who could play or sing would join in. My Daddy was born and raised in the south in the Tri State of Alabama, Tennessee, Mississippi but his family moved away during the Depression and went North to find work. Moved to southern ILLINOIS. He missed his home all his life went back a few times no family left there anymore. But he raised all his children with southern values many of them. One big one for him was for us kids and he himself you NEVER called your ELDER by their first name EVER. It was Mr and Mrs or Miss so and so. I ask him one day why? And he said Your Elder has earned it they have lived a long life and worked hard all their life and gained wisdom through their life and they deserve the respect and you must give them that RESPECT. To this day I can not call my elder by their first name and I am 64 years old. Thanks so much for sharing all your music with all of us. You both are very good at it. I also had to check out your Pap and family singing how beautiful that was and how that brought tears to my eyes because the memories for me flooded in like the mist in the hollows . Thanks again and May the Lord continue to Bless You and your channel.

[@thepressleygirls]

Thank you, so glad you found us, God bless you and your manners! 🥰🙏

[@MrsMajesticnanook]

Sung by angels! Thank you for sharing your gifts and faith!

[@thepressleygirls]

Thank you!

[@kathrynreed9724]

One of my favorite songs. Loved the harmony you sisters have. Very pretty.

[@charleswallen4457]

Beautiful ladies! Thanks for the morning worship!

[@Alicia-pr7gr]

❤❤❤❤❤ I love old houses too!!! So cool!!

[@pampark3368]

I wish someone had kept up that old abandoned homeplace. It breaks my heart that the history of a family is just falling in with all their personal items still sitting in the windows, kitchen, and family room. What a story this old house could tell.You guys should look into the history of it and tell us about it. N

[@Iceland874]

My grandpa’s (Dad’s dad) favorite hymn. Thank you for singing it. He’d love this. He loved to sing and play the trumpet and was a Baptist minister. I miss him. He and Grandma always loved reading the Bible and singing hymns with us. He took me on my first fishing trip when I was 7. Thanks for the wonderful video.

[@thepressleygirls]

❤️

[@tammymann6292]

My dad loved bluegrass music so my brother had it playing on his phone as Dad was passing away. This song came on the rotation as he passed on to be with his savior. It was so fitting. ❤

[@gregr1672]

Great job on your song ! I love all the Tulip Poplar trees around that old house . They are a unique shaped leaf and once you know em you'll never forget em! I delivered an old lawn tractor last spring to an old feller living in a house not much better than that house.He had several types of cancer & wife was gone ! House was out in the boonies! I imagine that's how houses become abandoned in such a manner! Sad .

[@thepressleygirls]

Sad to think these houses will just fall in. Poor old folks and their houses. And the popular trees are our favorite!

[@grekiely6245]

Thanks. Top old meaningful tune, nice Music work and harmonies, well done. Appreciate the scenic tour.

[@JanGrimm-s2y]

Bravo, brovo!!!👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼❤❤❤❤

[@cccbbb3579]

its like two angels singing -hello from california

[@MarthaGonzalez-jm3vn]

Thank you girls. I sang along with you.

[@CanadianMapleleaf]

Loved it, started my day with this video. Thank you lord for these girls ....

[@djeffs7873]

Beautiful, just beautiful. God has truly blessed you!

[@ironnerd8336]

I really did enjoy the video, both the song and the house. That house is so much like a town near me. I remember it thriving while I was growing up. Now it is almost gone. 70+ houses, a store, and a post office. At one time there were three times the houses. Now it is a handful of houses with no store or post office. People lived, loved, laughed, and cried there, my family included. Gone. Thanks for the video.

[@thepressleygirls]

Thanks for watching! It’s crazy how places can become abandoned like that!

[@EcouragingGodStories]

I grew up in a logging (sawmill) town until I left at age 18 to go to Vietnam. Everyone who lived in that little community ... their father worked at the lumbermill. It was one of those classic company owned towns. Around age 30 I went back to my home town ... only to find cows grazing where a million precious memories were recorded in my former back yard. It's a WEIRD feeling to see your town wiped off the face of the earth. Like the town got taken out by a small nuclear blast. The sawmill got shut down by the State and so the mill owner/s had to level the structures to make the rancher happy they originally leased in from the build the mill and the houses. Cows ONLY habitate that location now. Makes one realize everything on this planet is just temporary. Only thing that is forever is our soul and spirit being with God, isn't it? In case someone doesn't KNOW: kzbin.info/www/bejne/fmiwaoeXeLdkbbM

[@thepressleygirls]

@@EcouragingGodStories Thank you for watching and sharing and thank you deeply for your service. I guess it’s true, you can never go home, but you can always go back in your memories. Even in my life, a lot of things are different now than they used to be, but I call up all those good memories often. Thank you for watching, cool moose video! 🥰

[@chrissyt6959]

Beautiful. I came to the Lord when this song was played in 1998. I was 18! It is not a song most people think of as an altar song but it ministered to me.

[@thepressleygirls]

🙏☺️

[@juliapatterson6660]

Love listening to you both you harmonize so well love that song

[@jklynb]

This was played at my moms funeral. It was one of her favorite songs along with The Gospel Ship. Good job !

Thank you. One of my favorite songs.

[@vickiejoyner4631]

Thank you girls for this beautiful song! One of my late grandmothers songs! You two are awesome!!

[@kathygeorge8044]

As a kid we would all gather together and our neighbor, Dixie, would play these hymns and this was one done every time. My gram would keep time with her foot and clap along. Ps. Yes those are beautiful views!!

[@thepressleygirls]

What a sweet memory! And thank you so much!

[@MontyVFD]

I got a very eerie feeling from that house. Reminds me of dreams I used to have about an old house just like that one. Be careful I sense a bad energy from it.🙏

[@baddriver3580]

Beautiful song and I LOVE the views of the Mountains and flowers! Love that area of the U.S. !

Never fails to make me smile when you girls sing and play. You sure have found your niche in life. Fits you to a T.

I'm hearing it again. Praise the Lord! Thank You

[@karentrevino6678]

I used to see old home places like this with nothing much left but daffodils planted around the foundation. They were thriving because the deer won’t eat them. Loved to look around those places.

[@jamesburkjr2803]

I enjoy old house and abandoned towns like that. I live in Maryland and we have so many but I once went to Pennsylvania out in a oldtown called Centralia and it was beyond belief. The whole town was empty. If you look up the story about it it is quite interesting. They even have a few videos on KZbin about it

[@TooleyPeter]

Heartbreakingly sweet.

[@branditiller9923]

Y’all look beautiful! Beautiful song and harmony too.

[@Sondan1988]

It is almost like they just shut the door one day and never came back. The stories would be cool to hear.

[@68arpilot75]

Always a favorite tune for me. Very nice!

[@janpenland3686]

Thank You for this beautiful rendition. This was my dad's favorite song of all time. He played the mandolin and would really tear it up on this song! He went home to be with the Lord almost 40 years ago. I sure do miss him even after all these years. Y'all brought back some wonderful memories of him. Much Love

[@thepressleygirls]

So glad we could bring back memories, thanks for watching!

Wow I really loved you singing I'll Fly Away! That was one of my Moms favorite songs and I had someone sing it at her funeral after she "flew away". The way you sang it is just how my mom sang it. Bless you both.
