Once More

Osborne Brothers · Osborne Brothers 1 (1956-1968) [Bear Family] [1993]

(Dusty Owens)



Once more to be with you dear

Just for tonight to hold you tight

Once more I'd give a fortune

If I could see you once more.



Forget the past this hurt can't last

So I don't want it to keep us apart

Your love I pray I'll be your slave

If you'll just give me all of your heart.

Your love I pray I'll be your slave

If you'll just give me all of your heart.



Once more to be with you dear

Just for tonight to hold you tight

Once more I'd give a fortune

If I could see you once more.

The Osborne Brothers delivered a soulful rendition of 'Once More' on their 1993 Bear Family compilation, capturing the essence of their 1950s and 1960s gospel and country roots. As one of the most influential bluegrass duos of the era, Bobby and Sonny Osborne blended traditional religious themes with a rich, harmonized vocal style that defined their discography. This recording exemplifies their ability to reinterpret classic hymns with contemporary acoustic arrangements, showcasing their mastery of the genre. Their work during this period helped bridge the gap between rural gospel and mainstream country music, leaving a lasting legacy in American folk and religious music history.
