Saw them a few times in concert at a local high school, they were great and a lot of fun.

It sounds like home, comfy and delicious.

My aunt and uncle were married at Iowa's Little Brown Church in the 50s. It is a special place.

I live in Iowa, less than an hour away from the church. It is a congregational church. In the back, you can buy suveniers on the "honor system", including sheet music of the song. There are pictures of the man who wrote it before the church was even built. It makes you feel that you are in a very special sacred place as soon as you enter its doors. I found something very few people do. They have some decor trinkets on what appears to be a table but it is a portable pump (Reed) organ. That was the first style organ I ever played! That was a huge treat for me. It was folded down but I saw the bellows and foot pumps. I was in Heaven by seeing that!

Love this song. Thank you Statlers for singing this song.. You R the Best❤️❤️🙏🙏

My grandmother and my mother loved this song i remember them singing this. They both in heaven.

Please Let's all Pray for the U.S.A. God Bless you all

This song, in 2020, lifts my spirits and gives me a break from reality. I am a Christian and these songs make me very happy. I didn't hear about one of the band members' death, so may he rest in peace. Country gospel vs. Modern songs. (Thumbs down this comment if you'd vote for modern, thumbs up if you'd vote for Country Gospel)

Godspeed Harold. Music in Heaven got a lot better when you got there.

My 4th grade teacher, Mr. Zachary, would sing this song to us from time to time. Happy memories.

What a great singing group! You guys and the Oak Ridge Boys are the best ever...

Excellent, meldious voice, God gifted.Thanks.

and this is the first version i've found that included the verse about one that i love so well. for me, that one is my beautiful wife who i lost in 2001.

My dad sings that. I'll always think of him when I hear it. He has alzheimers now. He doesn't sing as much. I miss it so much.

They are one of my favorite groups. Nobody does gospel as beautiful as they do.

Remind me of the church that my wife Bernadine went to in Maple falls Washington that was about 60 years ago may she R I P

One of my childhood memories! A LOT of the younger generation have no clue that this sweet songs exist!

Nothing better than an afternoon of Statler Bros. To bad they retired.

My Granny taught me to play this on a child's upright Piano when I was just about 6 years old it's what got me to playing the Piano By ear..Thanks for that precious memory being brought back to my mind. Sincerely Connie C

My son broke baraton!! We drove around the woods..twins in their carseats, Anthony in his seatbelts..my son Tristan Twin would be sitting in the pasengers seat..He., we..mom and the kids..singing.. praising JESUS!! Good family

This was my favorite hymn when I was a child. I loved the part where they chant, "Come Come Come". So much fun!

I have not heard this song in a long time. I found it while surfing on Face Book. The Statler Brothers do a wonderful job singing it.

So sad Harold pass away god bless his family he will be miss very much

I can remember listening to the Statler Brothers when I was little sitting in my Granddaddy’s lap on A Saturday night I miss him so much he died in 1989 with cancer Harold we will miss you and that deep voice may You R.I.P. my heart ❤️ goes to your family and your many fans

Harold Reid had one of the best bass voices in country music. RIP

We sang this at my Mom's funeral She was the Church organist for years and choirs got together and say with us her favorites that day . So I still hear her sweet voice when I sing this ...And my brothers going "COME,COME,COME" Trying to make me smile just bit on our saddest day.

Harold was always my favorite of the group, love his voice!

Butch Melton Heating , lighting, maintenance, insurance - all cost money. It’s a pleasure to give for the house of God. The tithing is another money making enterprise which is different to church maintenance. The pastor has to eat and run a car. . .true? Just keep a check on his lifestyle .

As a very young kid this was one of those”car trip” songs that we sang over & over & over. . .It’s seared in my brain. Love these guys & their harmony!

Going to miss that tremendous voice of Harold Reid but I take comfort that along with the rest of Statler Bros he has left enough behind for me to remember and cherish their unforgettable Gospel music for a long time our loss is Heaven’s gain. God keep you Harold.

RIP Harold Reid. Loved the Statler brothers for a long long time. The good ones keep crossing over.

Harold Reid.....April 24,2020......RIP.....YOU WILL BE MISSED!!!

Going to miss you Harold. You're voice will resonate forever!

nothing like good ole country gospel..love it all.

I listened to this song as a child and will always remember the man John Ward for he loved to play this song

This is true country music!!

One of the groups We ever had/Such harmony.

The Statler Brothers by far have been the best ambassadors of country music we have ever had. Rev Terry Reeves Sr

Now this is the era of the music we love and treasure that always "tells a story" we all can relate to, no matter our age!! In our town, we all meet once a week with a live band each week and dance to the "oldies" country/western songs, and the "Good Time Rock 'N Roll" 1950's songs. We are the only no cigarette smoking, no alcohol drinking and no illegal drugs allowed. We had 98 customers last week. Yes, we hire 3 Security Guards to watch our vehicles. We are trying to be role models to teach the young generation they can have a lot of fun, stay out of jail and live longer by following our footsteps!! Please keep up the great music!!

Roanna Eason sounds like a good place to live. I am so tired of the music so many of our churches use now. Too loud, never know when they will end, and nothing to hum on your way home.

I saw the Staler's perform on stage with Johnny Cash - a great night I have never forgotten. RIP, Harold Reid.

If I could hear music like this in church, I'd go to church again.

Rest my brother you wiĺ be missed ,continue singing in heaven

Thank you for this! I still know it by heart but I haven't heard it played in ages!

Nothing like listening to genuine talent!

Wondrrful harmonizing best of brothers

Harold Reid you were needed in God's choir. I know you'll make him proud.

When TV was worth watching.

We sang this every Sunday when I was a kid at a real life little brown church. Love this version. Harold is effortless and Jimmy's tenor just ties it all together. Great job.

I visited the "little brown church" just before moving to Iowa only an hour away in Minnesota it's incredible to actually enter it. I found out then that the sing was written not too long BEFORE the church was built. It is a Congregational Church and dozens of weddings are performed there every year. The piano and organ are back to back but I noticed something during my visit that few do. In the left side of the church there is a table with a few decorations on it. I looked UNDER it discover it WASN'T a table at all! It was an old pump (Reed) organ that may or may not have been the original organ used by the church! It was the highlight of my visit since I learned to play on one in the Seventies! WOW!

​@Jack Kircher This church is in my home town, Nashua, Iowa. I didn't know that about the pump and I also didn't know the Statler Brothers did this cover! Thx

Always a favorite group of mine and so down to earth. I went to one of their concerts in 1980 and afterwards they literally came out, sat down on the stage and met with everyone that wanted to meet with them. They chatted with us with no worry of time, no expectations , just like four men chatting with a group. So humble, so wonderful and so real. If you haven't read their book you should. Better yet, get the audio version because Harold Reid narrates it and it's wonderful.

A beautiful version of a beautiful song. it is The Statlers, after all, who never made a less than perfect offering of everything they sang. I live in England, and was blessed to discover the Statler Brothers in the early 1970s, and never tire of hearing their wonderful harmonies. Country music being sung as it was intended to be sung. RIP Harold, very sad to hear of your departure. Gods' wonderful choir will be enhanced by your arrival and that incredible deep brown voice!!

Harold Reid......God bless you......please say hello to Jesus for us all down here

Always watched you growing up, some things never get old... you were always great, God bless, you are on safe ground .

R.I.P. Harold, you will greatly missed .

my parents loved this hymn

I love my little brown church even more now that I watched this!!! ❤️

RIP Harold "your stories" and you will be missed. My 1st Statler Brothers songI learned at 3 was, "Flowers on the Wall". It made reference to Captain Kangaroo. An Icon,as was Mr Rabbit,Mr Moose and Mr Moose. Great memories in this time of COVID-19. God bless to your family and the other Statler Brothers. 🌹🦋🌈🙏 From a proud Canadian 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦

Beautiful Music by The Statlers Brothers!

I have always loved the Statler brothers. Even today I still try to be Harold

*sigh* listening to this song could make any day better. what a beautiful and inspiring performance

One of my very favorite inspirational songs. Reminds me of my dear Mother. She would watch the Statler Brothers show every Saturday night, Many times I would watch it with her. This was my favorite segment of the show, when the would do hymns and inspirational songs. I wish full episodes of their show was available.

The Statler Bros definitely brings me back to my childhood!! What GREAT memories!! Some of the GREATEST entertainers ever!!

RIP Harold Reid

I miss Harold Reid he is in Heavens Heavenly Quartet signing base with JD Sumner and George Younce God Rest Your Soul till we meet one Glorious day singing praises to the Lord all eternity ✝❤

Being from Iowa, it's a sacred right for us to visit the "Little Brown Church' in Nashua at least once. I went to my cousin's wedding there. It is really small!

I have always loved this hymn! Many years ago it was always requested as a hymn at a Sunday night service. When we would have hymn sing portion. Good memories!

Loved watching their show. They were the best of the best! RIP, Harold.

It has been said that Nashua, Iowa was settled by people from Nashua, NH. Here is a real beautiful and basic tune with appeal to many folks and done by one of the best groups ever! Love it!!!! NH

The Goodwill Family sung this a lot. it was my grandma Aunt martha, her brother Slim Wilson, and a friend Uncle George who was Guy Smith. later, George Rhodes sang the bass part and my Dad Speedy haworth joined in as well. When My grandma died in 67, i joined in and sang her part.

No one ever sang it better.

This was the song my Mama asked to sing at her funeral. When Harold sings in his rich deep voice,now I know why!!

I have loved that song all my life and i am now 65 years blessed.

My mother was a church choir leader and this was her standard

I got to see these guys at Delta State University's Sillers Coliseum many years ago. They were always the consummate performers. I miss their show on TV...as they always closed with a hymn or gospel song. Wish it could be that way today.

Going to miss you Harold.God bless.

I have preached in huge open air meetings in India, Pakistan, Romania, Cuba, and other places in the world, including brush arbor meetings and meetings in the middle of the night that had to be quickly disbanded and moved due to Communist thugs coming to kill and maim the people attending. However, I am so often reminded of the church of my youth, a little church, white not brown, pastored by a great man of God who saw me as a child and took me under his wing and my memories return there often.

Good night Harold, rest in peace
