Southern Raised Bluegrass Performs 'When You Say Nothing At All' - Inspirational Videos

Feel inspired as Southern Raised Bluegrass performs the iconic country tune, ‘When You Say Nothing At All.’ 

This classic song was originally written by Paul Overstreet and Don Schlitz. It became a number one hit for artist Keith Whitley in 1988 and, almost ten years later, Alison Krauss performed her own cover of the song with the group Union Station. 

Over the years, ‘When You Say Nothing At All’ has cemented itself as one of the greatest country love songs of all time.

“It's amazing how you can speak right to my heart
Without saying a word, you can light up the dark
Try as I may, I can never explain
What I hear when you don't say a thing”

Today, we’re hearing a very special rendition of this ballad. 

Siblings Lindsay, Emily and Matt plus their friend Alex, make up the Southern Raised Bluegrass band. The group was raised in the Ozark Mountains and they have blended their traditional music upbringing with multiple genres and their deep-rooted faith. For years, they’ve entertained us with popular covers of songs such as ‘What A Day That Will Be’ and ‘Shenandoah.’

The group describes themselves as creating a ‘Southern Raised trademark sound where classical meets bluegrass and city streets meets country roads. SR has morphed a progressive sound that spans Christian Country/ Bluegrass, Celtic and Classical.’

Just listen as they come together to belt out the words of ‘When You Say Nothing At All.’ 

“The smile on your face lets me know that you need me
There's a truth in your eyes saying you'll never leave me
The touch of your hand says you'll catch me wherever I fall
You say it best, when you say nothing at all”

1 Corinthians 13:13 “But now abideth faith, hope, love, these three; and the greatest of these is love.”
