The Old Rugged Cross Made the Difference [Live] - Gaither Vocal Band

[@bosse641]

So true. A broken and lost sinner. Hopelessly lost. The He came out of the blue and took hold of me. Amazing grace. Totally undeserved. A new beginning. What a gift. Unfathomable the whole thing. All I can do is to give Him my feeble thanks. Amazing grace.

[@GrandmaPS]

Thank You, Lord, for restoring Michael and returning him to where he belongs. We praise You and give You all the glory.

[@sidneyknight1337]

Love this song and Michael sings it from the heart. He has lived the despair, heartbreak, broken home, yet he came through it and this faith and love for God is so evident when he sings.

[@kaysmith297]

Love Michael English, fabulous

[@merciawilliams4627]

Thank you Lord for Michael. He is a true blessing to me and I'm sure many others. This voice ministered to me.

[@butterfly4031]

Love this song. Michael English is a great singer. He's been my favorite singer for a long time. Michael did sung this song beautifully. I make this song my prayer before I go to bed.

23-08-2023 GOD BLESS YOU FOR BEING A BLESSING IN MY LIFE WITH YOURS BLESSEDS PRAISES ,GVB!!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤

[@aprildomerese6566]

He has a book out about his life called "The Prodigal Comes Home". It is one of the best books I've ever read. I only knew bits and pieces of what happened in his life but he gives all the gruesome details of his life. Everything. It's an amazing book and worth reading. I've read it 3 times just because it's so good and makes you think no matter what you see on the outside, there are some who are going through hell and you never know it...even those who are"famous".

Glory!!glory!! haliluia!!!amen!!!!!!

[@ricardomiranda7737]

Grace shines the best through those who have been given the most grace, from God. Besides talent, you can feel the depth of the lyrics when the song is sung by someone who has lived it. That is why the Psalms are so powerful for prayer. David depended on God daily for protection, provision, salvation, grace and mercy. Michael English, God bless you and keep you.

[@coralynrojas8934]

Those who know how to pray are praying …… and for all Christians around the world, WE MUST PRAY FOR EACH OTHER !!!!❤❤❤❤

[@caswell1000]

How beautiful Michael sang, with such passion and love for our Savior.

[@joylustig]

So amazingly heartfelt! Michael puts so much passion into his singing. Goosebumps!

[@AlejandroRuiz-ul6wc]

Gracias Espíritu Santo por usar a Michael al interpretar esta hermosa canción... solo su Cruz hizo la diferencia y por eso le seguimos a Jesús..

[@GOP71]

Michael's voice is back! I'm tearing up!

[@RafaelaFerguson]

Bill, Mark, Guy and David are my favorite GVB foursome! ❤❤

[@Roz-blvr]

Mine too!!!❤

[@cathyosman5531]

Michael can sing with feeling because He has lived it! So beautiful!

[@bethsfavourites6396]

Michael is at his best here. Beautiful voice. This song tells such a great story and Michael like the rest of the GVB sing great stories. Irreplaceable!!

[@landontipps7832]

He has a way of painting a picture and simultaneously making the voices around him even better and more harmonious

[@brendalynirving1566]

Thank God for a second chance it's always makes the difference .

[@merciawilliams4627]

Michael you are God's anointed. I love the passion with which you sing. You stir joy within me. My prayer is God favour you in all you do. Thank you to the uploader.

[@vickkiwisemann3314]

Michael English sing!! It's so evident that he knows what he is singing about firsthand! Thank you God for being a second chance God and for "never throwing the clay away"...Hallelujah! 😇😇

[@charlottetargain4467]

Ya great.

[@dianejackson]

This GVB is the best... Michael, you are the best in this group God blessed you with a wonderful voice. I love listening to you sing with your great Love for God giving Him all the Glory. 🫶🫶🫶🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌🙌

[@kingkingking8583]

The Gaithers have the best group if people who worship and praise God.

[@sharonspera3422]

Awesome, thank our God.

[@alicechin2705]

One of my favorites. Love to hear Michael sing.

[@shadey538]

Over the years in my battle to have peace that comes from God, loving Michael even when he appeared broken. I believe God used these men singing with Michael on this song help Michael break the chains that held him so long. I give God all my praise, honor and glory for helping me overcome the lying devil. It's been 8 years this past 2/13. As Mark Lowry says "God's grace is like a 4 yr old spreading peanut butter, He gets it all over the place"! I'm blessed God sustained me to find His Peace !

[@kathytorres5456]

The CROSS made the difference, pure LOVE of Jesus. 🙌

[@lisaautry6047]

I love to hear Michael sing this song. He sings with such emotion & you can see the love of Jesus on his face. It doesn't get any better than this. In my opinion, one of the best vocalist ever.

[@wendyowczarek1420]

What a precious song! Michael puts his heart and soul into this, it's written all over his face how much he loves Jesus! Beautiful

[@lifetime9rfan]

All of them sing with passion. I will be seeing a Gaither Vocal Band concert in Sioux Falls on 23 Jun and experience that 1st hand.

[@lsheppard7316]

Glory!! Haliluia!!!amen!!!!!¡

[@joanforchrist7272]

Thank you Michael you have a beautiful voice. I love the ones you people put your soul into.

[@carolsivik8691]

Such a blessing listening to Michael sing he touches my inner peace

[@adammcmurray2149]

That's what we call a masterclass in vocal control.

[@jntshinga2164]

In March 2021 the cross definitely made the difference for me. Thx for blessing my soul gents.🙏🏾🙌🏾

[@ntombenhlengcobo4859]

yes it was the cross that made a difference for me, and like Mrs Gaither would say. your music has brought through so much, i'm still a kid but through your music I have grown so much, yal sing from your hearts and make Gospel music so much more than it is. God bless each and every one of you and your families, continue to give the bread of life through music

[@GinaBlythe]

I LOVE the raw emotions of Michael's voice in this song. It was not sung to entertain us, but to praise God for what He did. Some may say there are better versions out there of this song, but I will respectfully say THIS is the best version of it.

[@844jim]

Michael is living proof that God can heal and restore "a life bound for heartache and defeat".

[@MissPiper56]

Micheal, went through a hard time, like many of us..but Micheal has change is life and is on the right track..

[@barbaraelder8517]

MIchael always sings to the Lord with such passion he is Gods gift to us

[@ethanfreeman9623]

I first heard Guy Penrod sing the solo part of this song. This new singer does well too. Amazing song!

[@rayhughes6633]

Tear jerking,skin tingly good. I am so glad I can enjoy this music..because I believe in ‘The Lamb’. Do you?

[@temalesibuadromo9780]

Michael...Great singing and great message..God bless you all GVB..

[@marciasmith5010]

"Our Father, Who art in Heaven, Hallowed be Thy Name!... Forgive us our sins as we forgive those ...." Indeed, there is no God like Jehovah! Michael's re-born, renewed; I am happy for him!

[@madimetjamautla6066]

Indeed God has been too good to him. Yes.. I will praise Him forever.

[@susanhowell2176]

It's a great song sung by a good man and singer, no doubt GODS child. This is Guy Penrods signature song and no one can sing it like he does in worship to GOD and JESUS CHRIST.

[@theomelidonis5539]

Michael sings with such passion. I can see his mind working as he lives this song. Absolutely the best!!

[@elisabethdundas9620]

I,m hooked on GVB....BRILLIANT VOICES....Loooooooooveeeeeethem!!!!!!

[@Miriamcantora1]

elisabeth dundas estou também viciada rsrsrsrs amo GVB as canção são cristocêntricas é isso que amamos!

[@esdrasrodrigues2808]

'Twas a life filled with aimless desperation Without hope walked the shell of a man; Then a hand with a nailprint stretched downward, Just one touch then a new life began. Chorus: And the old rugged cross made the difference In a life bound for heartache and defeat; I will praise Him forever and ever For the cross made the difference for me. Barren walls echoed harshness and anger Little faces ran in terror to hide; Now those walls ring with love, warmth and laughter, Since the giver of life moved inside. Repeat Chorus There's a room filled with sad, ashen faces Without hope death has wrapped them in gloom; But at the side of a saint there's rejoicing, For life can't be sealed in a tomb. Repeat Chorus

[@sherideitz3387]

So so beautiful!

[@loisdennis4899]

That was absolutely awesome. God bless. ❤❤🙏🙏❤❤

[@adrianfranco2001]

This song touches me really deep in my heart.. I love the way Michael ministres God uses him so powerfull

[@dereenlee4203]

Amen I put this song on repeat when ever I play it I just love this song and u brothers do a good job singing it

[@jmuench5678]

He's become perfection again, his voice is different, but it is still beautiful, unique and strong. Of course don't discount the fact he is drop dead gorgeous. When I see all these celebrities, overdosing, getting DUI's, just living a stupid life, depending on others to make them happy, Michael English is very blessed that he didn't kill himself and that he has been able to be a wonderful father to his girls and now granddaughters, thank you Lord for your grace even when we don't deserve it.

[@emmajenkins7111]

Jeanne Muench amen

Trying to stop crying long enough to comment...praise Jesus!

[@danapratola]

Wow, beautiful.

[@JoshuaMcConnellWP]

There are very few singers that I have heard in my 30+ years that have more emotion in their voice then Michael English. Michael English, Jason Crabb, and Vince Gill do it like no other.

[@WendyOwczarek]

Joshua McConnell I agree 100%!!!!! David Phelps has an awesome voice too

[@murielread2316]

Na krzyżu Golgoty dokonało się moje zbawienie, krew Jezusa Chrystusa obmyła mnie z każdego grzechu. Kocham ten stary, szorstki krzyż, w nim jest ratunek dla zgubionych ludzi.Jezus wciąż czeka na skruszone serca, na mnie też czekał i znalazł mnie, Jemu jedynemu chwała

[@HugeEaglesFan92]

While Michael's voice was definitely better before the affair/drugs stuff I wouldn't like to trade it for what he has now. His performance is so genuine and humble now! It's beautiful to watch. Praise the Lord! His forgiveness and mercy knows no end!

[@debbiepoling6205]

@Arimique Sinclair his testimony has been recorded many times over.

[@joylustig]

Read his autobiography called The Prodigal Comes Home. I bought it used.

[@daryltracy7949]

What he lost in range he gained in passion.

[@nancymetcalf3808]

AMEN....🙏🙏🙏🙏

[@benjiaustin7787]

I miss Michael and Mark with GVB

[@HappyKattt]

Me too...you can see, feel deeply the gratitude that Michael has for his Savior. His story is similar to my own (except I'm not famous), but the gratitude that God could still love you and welcome you home after hurting him so...it's a feeling that's hard to express!
