Merle Haggard passed away recently, and I would like to share some of the Country Gospel songs he sang.<\/p>\n
1. I saw the light<\/a><\/p>\n He talks about some of the old singers and Hillbilly heaven.<\/p>\n 2. Amazing grace<\/a><\/p>\n 3. Lord, don\u2019t give up on me<\/a><\/p>\n I am not sure if Merle Haggard wrote some of these country gospel songs or not, but some of them sound very personal.<\/p>\n 4. In the garden (He walks with me)<\/a><\/p>\n 5. This world is not my home<\/a><\/p>\n 6. Jesus Christ<\/a><\/p>\n 7. Jesus, take a hold<\/a><\/p>\n 8. Guide me Lord<\/a><\/p>\n 9. The sermon on the mount<\/a><\/p>\n 10. There\u2019s just one way<\/a><\/p>\n 11. When God comes and gathers His jewels<\/a><\/p>\n 12. Where no one stands alone<\/a><\/p>\n 13. Old rugged cross<\/a><\/p>\n 14. Precious memories<\/a><\/p>\n 15. Wait a little longer please Jesus – with Bonnie Owens<\/a><\/p>\n 16. Life\u2019s railroad to heaven<\/a><\/p>\n 17. On the Jericho road<\/a><\/p>\n I remember some men singing this song in church when I was young.<\/p>\n 18. If we never meet again<\/a><\/p>\n 19. Mama\u2019s prayer<\/a><\/p>\n 20. Family Bible – A Country Gospel song by Merle Haggard<\/a><\/p>\n 21. One day at a time<\/a><\/p>\n 22. Just a closer walk with Thee<\/a><\/p>\n This is the first country gospel song I sang in front of people at a little house meeting. I learnt the song off by heart, but when I announced the song title my mind went blank. I sang the chorus a couple of times, then I remembered one verse. Then later I remembered another verse. I was so embarrassed. Afterwards, some guy said he enjoyed the song, so I confessed that I had forgotten the words. He said he didn’t know the words. That encouraged me. Now, if I sing one of my own songs and forget the words, nobody will even know, except me!<\/p>\n 23. What a friend we have in Jesus<\/a><\/p>\n 24. Why me Lord<\/a><\/p>\n 25. What will it be like<\/a><\/p>\n 26. I\u2019ll fly away – “live”<\/a><\/p>\n Some of his fellow singers talk about him, then you see Merle Haggard on stage singing.<\/p>\n 27. Victory in Jesus<\/a><\/p>\n 28.\u00a0The seeker<\/a><\/p>\n I see that this country gospel song was written by Dolly Parton. Thank you Merle Haggard, and I hope you made it through the pearly gates, and are singing in hillbilly heaven!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Merle Haggard passed away recently, and I would like to share some of the Country Gospel songs he sang. 1.
