Sad to pass on the news that Mark has passed away. He was a great man, father, husband. A Vietnam war veteran, Grammy winner, gold records on the wall; a true pioneer of nashville country gospel. already miss him so much. Thanks for all the special times - love u Mark

Mark Ellerbee is my step-dad!! He is THE MOST AMAZING man ever!! He is a KING to my mother!! A gift to my brother and I, and one of the most accomplished and TRULY talented musicians I have ever known!! (And not to brag, but I've spent many years around musicians!!) I have been PROUD to call him DAD for more than 20 years!! We're all going to see The Oak Ridge Boys tomorrow at Wild Adventures!! I'm SO EXCITED!!!

So, did he get his heart right before he passed? I know they went on into the secular music area. I just hope he called out to Jesus.

RIP Mark .. Great Video , Great Song , Great Voice ... They just don't make them like you my friend . You'll be missed but in the hearts of many !

LOVE THIS...I believe we need to be ever so vigilant in searching out any and all Lost Souls so they may come to know Jesus Christ as their own personal Saviour and hopefully there will be fewer left behind...

Thank you so much for sharing this film clip. I grow up listening to my sister and her friend singing songs like these and she has gone home to God now and it's great to listen to what she would have listen to when she was growing up. So again thank you and God Bless

Beautiful music Amen ✋✋

Your step dad is the reason im a drummer today, My dad was in a gospal Quartet,that sometimes toured with the Oaks,I was 7 or 8 years old at the time, and I loved to watch him play...thought he was the best!! now i am 51 and still rocking...

I love this song!!! The Oak Ridge Boys do an awesome job of performing it!!!

My heart is breaking, I just heard that Mark has passed away. Prayers for ALL Mark's family and friends and to The Mighty Oaks, past and present. RIP MARK ELLERBEE!!

oldies but goodies

Mark, You're such an amazing talent, R.I.P.

Mark you were so special and the world is a better place for you having been in it. I will always remember you and miss you forever.

Amen ChristianEntertain!! They were all so talented!!

An amazing video of an exceptional musician. Thank you, Mark. for leaving this memory of you. Rest in Peace.

Rest in peace Keep on Drumming for the heavenly band

The Christian Nightmare Tribulation Band does a KILLER cover of this song. It's badass

After they left, Mark, John, and Tony should have started a trio with Tony on lead, Mark on baritone, and John on tenor.

this is the band from the seventies......some were still with them in the eighties

i didn't even know they covered this

Wonderful video my friend, the time is soon coming when many people will wish they'd been ready. Thanks for the share on this great old song. God bless. Mark

Don Breland was from Mississippi. He played bass.

We, Garland was from North Carolina & played keyboards. That's probably why you're so mixed up.

thank you

This song is MADE to segue into Calling Occupants (Of Interplanetary Craft) at the end. Musically and thematically it would be perfect. Love it.

Classic Larry Norman song....cool cover version.

Its my sad news to report that Don Breland passed away August 16th,he was 64 years old.

I grew up around you Mark. there is so much about you I wish I would have known...think of you often

What year is this from? I don't recognize any of the members

TARZAN TONY BROWN!

Where did you find this video? Mark Ellerbee and I were friends back during that time.

Sounds like Harris off of Barney Miller

This was recorded in 2015.
