Several Years Have Passed Since The Loss Of One Of Country Music’s Greatest Legends, And During This Emotional Tribute, Patty Loveless And Vince Gill Left The Audience In Tears With A Deeply Moving Rendition Of “Go Rest High On That Mountain.” Struggling To Hold Back His Emotions, Gill Paused To Wipe Away Tears Mid-Performance, But With Loveless’ Comforting Support And His Own Raw, Soulful Delivery, They Created An Unforgettable Moment That Honored A True Country Legend./sondinh/

Honoring a country singer and his close friend, Vince Gill struggled to keep his composure while singing “Go Rest High On That Mountain” at George Jones’ funeral.

George Jones eulogized at funeral service in Nashville - Los Angeles Times
“The Possum,” age 81, passed away April 26, 2013 at Vanderbilt University Medical Center after being hospitalized for a high fever and irregular blood pressure. Shortly following the death of Jones, the biggest names in country music came together to honor the life of late singer. The three-hour affair included performances by Alan Jackson, Kid Rock, and Montgomery Gentry, however no performance quite captivated the audience like Gill’s.

Joined on stage by Patty Loveless, Gill choked up multiple times throughout his performance, often stopping momentarily to wipe tears from his eyes. During a solo on his acoustic guitar, Loveless comforts the clearly distraught country singer torn up by the loss of his friend.

“Brother George taught us all how to sing with a broken heart,” said Gill prior to taking the stage.

Gill’s delivery of “Go Rest High On That Mountain” was nothing shy of perfection, the emotion flowing through him audible through his voice. The country singer became completely overcome with emotion by the second chorus, Loveless taking over on lead vocals until he could gather himself.
