You’ll want to listen to ‘Forever And Ever Amen,’ Gaither vocal band performance.
‘Forever And Ever Amen’ has been one of the most beloved country hits since its release in 1987 by beloved country artist Randy Travis. It became a staple love song in all households because it speaks to the love a man has for his wife and ties in the Lord.
The song was written by Paul Overstreet and Donschiltz and it became Travis’ third number-one single on the Billboard Hot Country Singles chart. The beloved song became a cover for many artists, including Josh Turner who featured Randy Travis. Randy suffered a stroke in 2013 that rendered him voiceless for several years but he has recovered enough to sing a line to two. Besides Josh Turner’s rendition of the song, the Gaither vocal band has done a fantastic version of ‘Forever And Ever Amen.’
Gaither has been around almost as long as Randy Travis. They formed in 1990. They write that they have “served as a standard-bearer in the world of gospel music.” Gaither was founded by Bill Gaither, who is a legendary gospel songwriter.
Gaither has won multiple grammies, and they are known around the world for their performances at places like Carnegie Hall, The Kennedy Center, and the Sydney Opera House. Yet, over the years, the group has included vocals from Steen Green, Mark Lowry, Michael English, and David Phelps, just to name a few.
Currently, the band is comprised of Bill Gaither, Adam Cobb, Todd Suttles, Reggie Smith, and Wes Hampton. What is so incredible about this group is how they honor the Lord through their music and performances while sharing the message of hope, redemption, and amazing grace. If you haven’t listened to them before, you are in for a real treat. I guarantee you’ll be humming the tune for the rest of the day.
“Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends. As for prophecies, they will pass away; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will pass away,” 1 Corinthians 13:7-8.
