‘Leaning on the Everlasting Arms’ (Alan Jackson)

I love this hymn–I keep saying that: sorry–Leaning on the Everlasting Arms. Alan Jackson’s rendition is short and sweet.

Hey, everybody! We’re in Lent now, and Easter is coming. How about some requests for Easter and Lenten hymns?

Nice video! He’s my favorite country singer. I have another request for Easter, which is “Mary, Mary” performed by GLAD. Here it is! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=B4k0OFS99Rk

  Thank you, Joshua. I’m trying to dig out of the rubble left by Daylight Saving Time, which for some reason always knocks down my readership. Maybe because everybody in the country is now an hour late for everything.

  You’re welcome, Mr. Duigon, and thank you! So, because of Daylight Saving Time, the time in America has become one hour ahead?

  Yes–we lose an hour of sleep, and we’re an hour late for everything else.

I, too, love this song — although I can’t help shivering when I remember Robert Mitchum singing it as the evil fake-preacher in the movie “Night of the Hunter.”

  That’s some scene in that movie, where the killer is hiding, then joins in when Lillian Gish starts singing the hymn. Great movie–and the only movie ever directed by Charles Laughton.
