I saw Larry Gatlin sing this in the 1970s and never forgot it. I thought it was one of the most beautiful songs and voices I had ever heard, and I still do.

Saw Gatlins in TX after i got some bad health news. If anyone needed God's help, it was me that night. Elvis recorded this song too, but you can feel Larry's hurt/prayer/victory in every 🎶 as the writer. God can help any of us in need.

Amen to that. We were at Grand Ole Opry in May 2009 when he hosted the show. He is a natural showman with the crowd, gently making fun of everything and everybody (and himself!) while the whole place laughed endlessly. His kind nature and tremendous talent are obvious. He still sings like nobody else, and moves people when he does. Thanks, Larry Wayne for continuing to sing to God's glory.

This just brought me back to the house when I was a kid. Mom was singing in front of the sink, washing dishs, Larry Gatlin playing on the record player. Happy tears. Today was the day Mom passed over to be with Our Lord and my Dad.

I was in this service. Mr. Gatlin came to help promote the fact that he would return two months later to sing the tenor parts of Handel's Messiah. This song blessed us greatly, and we've loved Larry Gatlin since. (Nice to see the old interior of our worship center.)

The great voice and songwriting talent of LARRY WAYNE GATLIN seems all but forgotten by most people today, but there's not a country singer on the charts right now who comes close to this guy. I saw Larry and the Brothers in concert in 2006 and they sounded as great as they did 20years ago.

I never thought I needed help before, I thought that I could do things by myself. Now I know I just can't take it any more. With a humble heart, on bended knee, I'm beggin' You, please, Help Me. Come down from Your golden Throne to me, to lowly me, I need to feel the touch of Your tender hand. Remove the chains of darkness And let me see, Lord let me see, Just where I fit into your master plan. I never thought I needed help before, I thought that I could do things by myself.

Larry was singing a special song in a church service. He didn’t know that June Carter Cash was in a pew attending church services. June was so impressed that she went home and had Johnny Cash come back for the evening service. Johnny liked what he heard, and started connecting Larry to some people in the music industry. This song that was written by Kris Kristofferson and Larry’s voice did the singing in the new movie that Johnny Cash wrote and June Carter produced, called The Gospel Road, 1973. I was blessed to see Larry live at DeAnza college in Cupertino California, as he opened a Johnny Cash concert back in the mid to late eighties.

Larry did not write this song in rehab, although this song does seem prophetic. He wrote it before he was an addict in 1973 shortly after he arrived in Nashvlle. Help Me, is probably his most recorded song by outher artist, Elvis, Tammy Wynette, Ray Price, Kristofferson, to name a few that I can come up with. Larry did write quite a few songs parreling his drug use and finding love and forgiveness in his on heart after comming out of rehab.

Larry, you've written some great song, and I believe this one is truly inspired. You have captured the heart-cry of someone seeking Jesus while facing difficulties. I am 73 and taking bass (upright) lessons. "Help Me" is a perfect song for helping me learn to play "gospel blues". I would very much like to video myself playing bass with you singing this and with the Elvis version. I want to post on KZfaq and as "video response". (more to follow)

Cilla, do you know Jesus as your Savior & Lord? If not, you need to by praying, admit to Him that you're a sinner, ask for His forgiveness & cleansing, & ask Him to come into your life as Lord. He will be there to be help. If you're already born again, he's already there to help. I've been living with Failed Back Syndrome & Peripheral Neuropathy (both painful conditions) for many years. The Lord has not chosen to heal me, but He's used me to witness to others & has given me the strength to get through each day. I don't know what you're dealing with, but I will pray for you!
