Every one of us has a special song inside of us that everyone wants to hear!!! If you had time to sing one song !!! This speech stuck in my heart. It’s from the record producer (Sam Phillips) who first gave Johnny Cash a chance to record. Cash had just sung a gospel song that hadn’t impressed Phillips. Phillips encourages him to do better… Johnny Cash (complaining he hadn’t been given a chance): Well you didn’t let us “bring it home”. Sam Phillips: Bring… bring it home? All right, let’s bring it home: If you was hit by a truck and you were lying out there in that gutter dying, and you had time to sing one song. Huh? One song that people would remember before you’re dirt. One song that would let God know how you felt about your time here on Earth. One song that would sum you up. You tellin’ me that’s the song you’d sing? That same Jimmy Davis tune we hear on the radio all day, about your peace within, and how it’s real, and how you’re gonna shout it out? Or… would you sing somethin’ different. Somethin’ real. Somethin’ you felt. Cause I’m telling you right now, that’s the kind of song people want to hear. That’s the kind of song that truly saves people. It ain’t got nothin to do with believin’ in God, Mr. Cash. It has to do with believin’ in yourself. https://youtube/watch?v=AXjzwZnzvkc
