Um, sorry, I meant the song was "I'm So Lonesome I Could Cry (not Die)".

I knew it was a worship song about finding Jesus and being saved just never thought it would be a worship song thast would be song by about 100 people so was surprised. Fantastic tho and the words are really good.

God bless,

Matthew

I don't know if any of you have seen the movie of Hank Williams' life. At the end of the film, after Williams is killed in a car crash on his way to a performance, Red Buttons comes on stage to tell the crowd that Williams was killed on his way to the show. A man in the audience stands up and begins to sing I Saw The Light and one by one, the rest of the audience stands and joins in. It brings a tear to my eye every time I see it.

I've always thought the use of "I Saw the Light" was a clever use of this Gospel song as Johnny Cash indicates at the end that he probably would have confessed to his misdeeds, but his hypocritical blackmailing wife/partner doesn't seem to realize that the heart of her religion is the fact that people can change--thus her "hold" on him causes her death. Not sure ole Hank was a-thinking about St. Paul's conversion on the way to Damascus when he composed the song, but he may have been.
