I have always associated George Jones with love songs, but he also sang a lot of good old country gospel songs. I hope some of these will be a blessing to you.
1. Me and Jesus
I first heard this song on a record by Pat Boone, and I still love it, and sing it. “We can’t afford any fancy singing, we can’t afford any fancy church!”
3. Old brush arbors – a Country Gospel song by George Jones
I also first heard this by Pat Boone.
Elvis made a hit with this one.
5. A man I’ve always wanted to meet
6. God keeps the wild flowers blooming
8. Matthew 24
10. Why me Lord
This is a good old standard country gospel song written by Kris Kristofferson.
11. Lord, You’ve been mighty good to me
12. When Mama sang (the angels stopped to listen)
13. I’ll fly away
I trust that Mr. George Jones flew into the everlasting arms of Jesus.
14. How beautiful heaven must be
15. Family Bible
This good old country gospel song was written by Willie Nelson. I first heard it on a record by Bobby Bare called “This I believe.”

18. Old brush arbors – “live” with the Kingsmen Quartet
19. The devil is gathering firewood
22. In a gospel way
25. Leaning on the everlasting arms
