Kids, I am a soldier. The song has just begun. I do not even need to hear another note to tell you that you have just given me the most wonderful Christmas gift and I thank you from the very bottom of my heart. I thoroughly believe you are good kids. Do your best to stay on that straight and narrow path. Please, for this old soldier, please study the very living words of Jesus Christ a little bit each day. I am sure you do. Just consider it a gentle reminder. I love you.

What force are you in? What rank are you? Where are you based?

@@somebloke7588 , If I told you, it would read like a science fiction novel. Trust me. I suggest to all to read the very Living Words of Jesus Christ found in the Books of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John and to read the Book of Proverbs as well. This much at the very least if you never read anything more. But, the rest of the Bible is highly recommended too. Just do what Jesus says. The teachings and wisdom of Jesus Christ are both simple and profound.

From a veteran, thanks for this song CPK. Roll Tide!

That was awesome A little Celtic sound.

Amazing song! Keeping the sound of Traditional Americana alive!

Wonderful song! Y'all played so well!

Awesome! Great music. It beutifully captures the mood of a cold and bleak, death-filled landscape as this soldier has to miss having happier times with his family and friends. The video was well done, too. Super job, guys. Merry Christmas!

*I do indeed and beautiful may I say the video is class what I have to say is the version of O Emanuel was my favourite video Therese walking with the fiddle though the wooded area was so amazing and still sits in my mind fresh, the quality of your video work is astonishing and so it should be you guys have moved from a quite young little band to a fully fledged professional band with absolutely everything going for you guys as I said to you Savio I have followed you guys before you had 1k followers on KZread it warms my heart I was right that it would not take long before I seen one of the tightest bands on the Bluegrass scene and everytime I complemented your guys everytime I asked for a Therese Woohoooooo and even asked you to give me your rendition of Rebecca you guys always stayed humble I just wondered when will be the day where these guys are just flooded with mail I’ll never get a like let alone a comment back but you guys do. I invited you guys to Ireland many years ago and that invitation will stand forever in the meantime you just keep killing it I have a feeling 2024 is going to be a magical year for you guys I stand with what I said this band are holding the torch for everything Bluegrass stands for family love feeling hard driving ass kicking smoking Bluegrass in a style Mr Monroe must smile down fondly upon the world is at your feet now guys take it*

Thank you so much for the warm and heartfelt comment. ❤️

Good job! You're developing into well-rounded musicians. My guess is that you recorded in the studio and dubbed over the video(?) Excellent! The song choice and setting (overall video) were only missing one thing... the scent. I was there in spirit. Moved! Although it looks easy, I'm sure you all work very hard at your craft. Keep the Lord first in all that you do, and don't let success run you away from the love of God or each other. The grace and peace of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ be with you always. Amen. Love, from CA USA

Be Soldiers of Christ

Love these kids. I just wish they would look at the audience or camera more instead of the instruments... tip for you.

So sad they all look. On purpose?
