To all of the wonderful musicians, vocalists, and songwriters who lent their amazing talents to this record, I want to thank you for making it so special. It seems I have a personal relationship with every song on it. For example, \u2018In The Sweet By And By\u2019 was my mom\u2019s favorite song. When I was a kid, as I was leaving to go to school, I remember hearing her sing along with the radio. Music is by far the best \u2018memory creator\u2019 I know, and that memory is very special to me.\u201d<\/p>\n<p> <a href=\"http:\/\/www.cmt.com\/news\/1813664\/listen-to-kenny-rogers-spread-the-gospel-truth\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">via:: CMT News<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>by Craig Shelburne 19m ago Fans of Kenny Rogers will rejoice to learn that there\u2019s a previously unreleased track on his newest reissue, The Love of God.
