00:00:00Oh
00:00:35It's just the beginning of the day now.
00:00:37Come on.
00:00:38All right.
00:00:44Go back, Dad.
00:00:45Come on, Dad.
00:00:50Where you going, man?

00:01:12Come on.
00:01:12Come on.
00:01:13Come on.
00:01:13Dear Ma and Pa, the Bible says, for everything there is a season.
00:01:18And after two years of marriage, the time has finally come for Willie and me to put down roots on
00:01:23a ranch of our own.
00:01:30We left the wagon train today and are heading out alone through desolate and beautiful country.
00:01:38It's not green like the farm.
00:01:40We're golden.
00:01:43As you can tell by my handwriting, the way is pretty bumpy.
00:01:47Willie's worried we got a late start leaving Denver.
00:01:50August is not a good month to start up a ranch.
00:01:53I did get a full year of teaching in and we can use the money.
00:01:57We also may be starting up something else.
00:02:01Namely, your first grandchild.
00:02:03I haven't told Willie yet.
00:02:05He's got so much on his mind already.
00:02:07There will be plenty of time to tell him after we've settled.
00:02:10For everything there is a season.
00:02:22Willie, can you pull up for a minute?
00:02:49I feel better.
00:02:54yes

00:08:53Oh, my God.
00:08:56Oh, my God.
00:09:00Really?
00:09:01Sonny, Sonny!
00:09:02Where you been?
00:09:03I've been waiting so long for you to come back.
00:09:06Where's the van?
00:09:07Sonny!
00:09:08Where you been, Sonny?
00:09:10Where you been, Sonny?
00:09:14Where you been, Sonny?
00:09:15Where you been, Sonny?
00:09:15Even B is mean.
00:09:17Just having a little fun with your little brothers, Sonny.
00:09:19Take it easy, baby.
00:09:22Why don't you and I go away and have a drink?
00:09:27Sonny?
00:09:30Sonny.

00:10:00Easy there, Jeff.
00:10:02If that widow feed you, I pay her good money.
00:10:04I don't like her there, Sonny.
00:10:07I want to go with you.
00:10:08Yeah, well, you can't.
00:10:11I'd have told you that a hundred times.
00:10:28Whoa!
00:10:35I'll build you a house a lot better than that one.
00:10:37Oh, no.
00:10:39Really, this house is just fine.
00:10:42Let's go take a look.
00:10:56Here we go.
00:11:15Humble as it may be, sweetheart,
00:11:17This is the first home of our own that we've ever had.
00:11:50No stove.
00:11:52I can use a fireplace.
00:11:54My cooking can't get any worse than it is right now.
00:12:03Lord, bless this house and all who enter.
00:12:07Amen.
00:12:32Dearest family, I miss you and the small creature comforts.
00:12:44Sometimes I can almost hear your voices in the soft prairie wind.
00:13:02I worry about Willy.
00:13:04He works with a ferocity that sometimes scares me.
00:13:08He's so concerned we won't be ready for winter.
00:13:13I've still not found the right time to tell him about the baby.
00:13:30Willy and I went riding over our land.
00:13:33What a beautiful country the Lord has made.
00:13:41Just the other day, we saw Indians on our ridgeline.
00:13:46Willy is very concerned for my safety,
00:13:49though there hasn't been any Indian attacks in years in these parts.
00:14:17Willy and I are sending you a treasure map to our hard-earned savings,
00:14:20which we just buried in the wilds of our new ranch.
00:14:41I certainly hope you never need to use it.
00:14:44Willy doesn't trust banks out here.
00:14:46But then, this is a strange and wild place.
00:14:55I've been punching cattle over three years, Mr. LaHaye.
00:14:58Not as experienced as some, but more than others.
00:15:01Where are you here from, Henry?
00:15:02What does that matter?
00:15:03I'm here now.
00:15:09All right.
00:15:12Suppose it's none of my business anyway.
00:15:14No offense.
00:15:15None taken.
00:15:15If you give me a job.
00:15:20No offense.
00:15:56No offense.
00:15:59No offense.
00:16:06No offense.
00:16:14I quit.
00:16:19Uh, I'm Missy LaHaye.
00:16:22My husband and I homestead this place.
00:16:27We raise, uh, cattle.
00:16:32This... how?
00:16:35What is that supposed to mean?
00:16:37You speak English.
00:16:39That's what they tell me.
00:16:41McLean. Mary Deshawn McLean.
00:16:43Um, we homestead the next track to the south of here.
00:16:48We're neighbors.
00:16:50Yes, ma'am.
00:16:51Oh!
00:16:54Please, please come in.
00:16:57Well, I don't understand, Mr...
00:16:59Just Scott, he's fine.
00:17:02Been cowboying since I was a kid.
00:17:05I've done everything there is to do.
00:17:07Well, how come you haven't been hired by one of the big outfits?
00:17:13I can't use this no more, so most people think I'm washed up.
00:17:20But I learned to get by with my left.
00:17:23You take me on, Mr. LaHaye.
00:17:26I won't let you down.
00:17:31You got yourself a chair.
00:17:41Uh, I'm just getting started.
00:17:44Trying to make this place into a home.
00:17:48Please, sit.
00:17:54I think I have one last jar of strawberry preserves
00:18:00that I've been saving for just such an occasion.
00:18:09Please.
00:18:10Here.
00:18:15Now, this here is a county fair blue ribbon winner.
00:18:26Mmm.
00:18:28Mmm.
00:18:29This is very good.
00:18:30You must teach me how to make this.
00:18:32Oh, my mother made it.
00:18:34I'm not a very good cook.
00:18:35Look, when I was growing up, I mostly helped out my pa.
00:18:40Riding horses, plowing the field, tending to the chickens.
00:18:44Then you will do very well here.
00:18:46Many women who come here are soft.
00:18:48They don't know how to do these things.
00:18:50You do.
00:18:52Still, I feel that my husband would prefer a good meal.
00:18:57I brought you some things.
00:18:59It is too late to start a garden this year,
00:19:02so corn, potatoes, beets.
00:19:04Oh, thank you, Miriam.
00:19:06We are neighbors.
00:19:07The last family was here.
00:19:09Well, they could have asked us for more help,
00:19:12but I think they feared my Shoshone ways.
00:19:17Oh, well, my husband and I will be grateful
00:19:19for whatever help we can get.
00:19:22What is in there?
00:19:24The secret to flaky biscuits.
00:19:28Piglard.
00:19:29Oh, oh.
00:19:31Excuse me.
00:19:32I'm sorry.
00:19:32Excuse me.
00:19:33Sorry.
00:19:52What do you think about these?
00:19:53Oh, bring them.
00:20:00Would you be Mr. LaHaye?
00:20:01I would.
00:20:02Well, I am Finn Anders.
00:20:04I would like jobs, sir, if please.
00:20:06What kind of farm there is you, son?
00:20:09I come from Norway on boat
00:20:10to find adventure in the big wide-open spaces.
00:20:15Well, you have any experience around cattle?
00:20:16No, sir.
00:20:18Well, I am big, strong, bone horse.
00:20:21Well, Finn Anders from Norway.
00:20:25Hope you learn fast.
00:20:27Don't worry, Mr. LaHaye.
00:20:28I learn good and fast.
00:20:33I'm still with your paw.
00:20:35Sure I can't give you any biscuits?
00:20:37No.
00:20:40Thank you, though.
00:20:42Well, maybe next time I'll make them with the pig lard.
00:20:47If I don't fetch.
00:20:53When you're ready to bring this little one into the world,
00:20:56I will be there.
00:20:59I've delivered many babies.
00:21:00Oh, Miriam, thank you.
00:21:16I'll bring some books for the boys.
00:21:19Good.
00:21:20I don't want them growing up illiterate like their paw.
00:21:24Very nice to meet you, neighbor.
00:21:26You too.
00:21:39There comes trouble.
00:21:49I, uh, heard you were hiring some cowpokes.
00:21:55Jobs are filled.
00:21:57Oh, there's a bunch you hired.
00:22:01You're really scratching the bottom of the barrel.
00:22:04Too bad you just couldn't have waited a bit.
00:22:06Hired some real men.
00:22:07So where would I find these real men?
00:22:10Me.
00:22:12Me and my boys.
00:22:15Not only can we rope and ride,
00:22:20but most important, we can shoot.
00:22:24Hey, mister.
00:22:26I bet you can't shoot worth nothing.
00:22:29Why don't I start with you?
00:22:32Trent, come on.
00:22:33Let's get out of here.
00:22:42Well, we got some cows to drive, so watch them and do likewise.
00:22:47You betcha, boss.
00:22:49Mr. LaHaye, how would you feel about hying on another broke-down old cowboy?
00:22:54Well, I suppose I wouldn't feel so good about that, mister...
00:22:58My name is Cookie.
00:23:00You're Cook.
00:23:01Ha ha!
00:23:03You're real quick.
00:23:04Afraid I can't afford another hand right now.
00:23:06Strictly on a trial basis.
00:23:09Lord, help!
00:23:23Come on!
00:23:24Get up there!
00:23:26Yeah!
00:23:27Yeah!
00:23:27Yeah!
00:23:28Yeah!
00:23:29Yeah!
00:23:30Ha ha!
00:23:32Ha ha!
00:23:33Ha ha!
00:23:33Ha ha!
00:23:35Come on, man!
00:23:37The stuff is up here, miss!
00:23:38That's his stuff.
00:23:41Ha ha!
00:23:41Get up there, 부분, there!
00:23:43Ha ha!
00:23:44It's a beautiful herd, really!
00:23:48Ha ha!
00:23:48Move it, dear!
00:23:49Move it!
00:23:51Come on!
00:23:52Move it!
00:23:53Move it!
00:23:54Oh, man!
00:23:58Get this way with you.
00:23:59Come on!
00:24:00Yeah!
00:24:01Yeah!
00:24:02Ha ha!
00:24:02I'm in a moment!
00:24:04Come on!
00:24:04Yeah!
00:24:06Come on, man!
00:24:21How do you, Mr. Hayes?
00:24:35My dearest Missy, the prospect of being grandparents fills us with such joy and pride.
00:24:43I can only imagine how happy you must be.
00:24:46And by now, I'm sure you've shared the happy news with that hard-working son-in-law of mine.
00:24:51I can still remember the exact moment when your mother told me about you.
00:24:57I was standing in the kitchen eating breakfast, and most of all, I remember how radiant your mother looked when
00:25:04she told me.
00:25:07And as for you, my strong daughter, I hope you are feeling well, and that it is an easy pregnancy
00:25:14for you.
00:25:16I love you, darling.
00:25:47I love you, darling.
00:25:55It's a good finish.
00:25:55Fine idea, including her.
00:25:58Oh, this would be nothing without her.
00:26:01Therefore, a man shall leave his father and mother, cleave to his wife.
00:26:06They shall be as one.
00:26:07Genesis.
00:26:08You know your Bible.
00:26:10Yes.
00:26:11Yes, good re-material anyway, I'm happy for you.
00:26:14A good marriage that's something to be treasuring.
00:26:19Speaking from experience.
00:26:25Scotty!
00:26:26Ready for another one?
00:26:28Not sure, can't hold on.
00:26:35What are you off to?
00:26:36I'm taking some books to our neighbors from the plains.
00:26:40Be back in a couple of hours.
00:26:53She sure is a better rider than I am.
00:26:57Whoa, whoa, whoa!
00:27:09Buffalo.
00:27:10It ain't done by white men neither.
00:27:12White men only take the pelt.
00:27:15Indians use just about everything.
00:27:17The hide, the meat, the horns, some of the bones.
00:27:20Yeah, Missy and I saw some Indians riding south last week.
00:27:25And all this beef is better than this buffalo meat any day.
00:27:28Well, there ain't been Indian trouble in these parts for quite a while.
00:27:31Let's tell the boys.
00:27:32Treasure smell.
00:27:35No.
00:27:48I'm sorry.
00:28:03Lord, give this horse wings to fly.
00:28:21Go, go, go, go!
00:28:36Ben.
00:28:38Go spell Scotty. There's some sick cows that need to be brought in.
00:28:41Yes, boss.
00:28:42Uh, Mrs. Lahey in the house?
00:28:44No, sir. She up and took some books over to your neighbors to McLean.
00:28:51Come on.
00:28:56Oh, she sure can ride.
00:29:06Woo-hoo!
00:29:10Woo-hoo!
00:29:12Woo-hoo!
00:29:13Woo-hoo!

00:29:33Woo-hoo!
00:29:33Woo-hoo!
00:29:34Woo-hoo!
00:29:34Woo-hoo!
00:29:35Woo-hoo!
00:29:37Woo-hoo!
00:29:39Woo-hoo!
00:29:40We're safe here, Mrs. LaHaye.
00:29:45I'm so sorry.
00:29:50Putting a scare into this poor woman.
00:29:52We were just having a little fun.
00:29:54You've missing a sharp claw.
00:29:59Is it trouble you want for us?
00:30:03My apologies, Mrs. LaHaye.
00:30:07Missy, this is my brother, Sharp Claw.
00:30:11I give you my word, Mrs. LaHaye.
00:30:14My young hunters meant no harm except a laugh at your expense.
00:30:18Their proper behavior when they saw you
00:30:20should have been to make sure that you arrived at your destination safely.
00:30:26Especially a woman in your condition.
00:30:29Oh.
00:30:37And this is my husband, Sean.
00:30:42It's a pleasure to meet you, madam.
00:30:43Nice meeting you.
00:30:46And Robert and Bruce?
00:30:48Hello, boys.
00:30:50Please.
00:30:51Please.
00:30:52Please.
00:30:53Please.
00:31:07Please.
00:31:26Can we take out our books?
00:31:28Yes, they're yours.
00:31:34Children, these are the same books used in almost every school in America.
00:31:42Who is this McGuffey?
00:31:44An Ohio schoolmaster who felt a burden from God to teach all American children how to read.
00:31:50American children?
00:31:51Yes, sir. And that includes those whom our late President Lincoln called Native American.
00:31:59Thank you, Mrs. LaHaye.
00:32:01Now, you all have your books, all you men and children out.
00:32:06We have women's business to talk about.
00:32:29...
00:32:31Yes!
00:32:33Who are you guys like that?
00:32:40Yes.
00:32:45Why are those horses?
00:32:47Which are the good ones?
00:32:59Surf car!
00:33:03Over there.
00:33:05Come in for it.
00:33:06Come in.
00:33:08Come in.
00:33:14Willie.
00:33:16This is Miriam.
00:33:19And her husband, Sean.
00:33:20And her brother, Sharpclaw.
00:33:25We're on our way to the mountains.
00:33:27We intend only to take some buffalo.
00:33:30I have given strict orders that no cattle are to be harmed, and those orders will be obeyed.
00:33:38Are you ready to go home, Missy?
00:33:43Mr. McClain?
00:33:45Mrs. McClain?
00:33:49Sharpclaw?
00:33:54Goodbye.
00:33:56Goodbye.
00:34:18Pull her down, I'll hold her.
00:34:20Uh-huh.
00:34:21She'll be good in a couple of weeks.
00:34:30First time I've ever seen them going like that.
00:34:33Wow.
00:34:46Just what did you think you were doing, Missy?
00:34:48I was taking some McGuffey readers over to the McClains.
00:34:51Miriam asked me to teach her children how to read.
00:34:54How come you never told me about Miriam's visit?
00:34:57I'm worried about you riding alone.
00:34:59It's too dangerous.
00:35:00You won't be doing this again, Missy.
00:35:02Oh, yes, I will.
00:35:03Oh, no, you won't.
00:35:04Oh, yes, I will.
00:35:16Missy.
00:35:20Sweetheart, do you miss teaching this much?
00:35:26No, that's not why I'm crying.
00:35:29Then why?
00:35:31Because I truly believe that the Lord sent Miriam McClain to us.
00:35:38Then why would he do a thing like that?
00:35:42To bring our baby into the world.
00:35:47Yep.
00:35:49Our baby?
00:35:50Missy.
00:35:52No, please, really, don't worry.
00:35:54Miriam will be my midwife.
00:35:56She's delivered all the babies in her village for many years.
00:36:00Our baby.
00:36:02Oh, well.
00:36:10Good rub?
00:36:11Great.
00:36:13Very good.
00:36:14Perfect for a brisk night like this.
00:36:16Here's a blanket to keep off the cold.
00:36:19Don't give her that old horse blanket.
00:36:21You, uh, you take mine, Mrs. LeHaye.
00:36:25No, well, thank you both, but I'm fine.
00:36:30You told them.
00:36:32I'd like to raise a coffee cup to, uh, sinners, sinners is the strongest we got, to Mr. and Mrs.
00:36:40LeHaye, and their happy news.
00:36:42So say we all.
00:36:43So say we all.
00:36:54Willie.
00:36:58What is it?
00:36:59What is it?
00:36:59I'm awake.
00:37:00Yeah.
00:37:01They were just so kind and concerned tonight.
00:37:07Well, the hands?
00:37:08Mm-hmm.
00:37:10Yeah.
00:37:15What about their families?
00:37:19I really don't know much about them.
00:37:23But they're good workers.
00:37:25That's the most important thing.
00:37:29Shouldn't we know if they have families or not?
00:37:36Missy, lots of times, cowboys come out here to get away from things, and you've got to respect that.
00:37:48Still, it seems like such a lonely life.
00:37:57You're going to be a wonderful mother.
00:37:59Mm-hmm.
00:38:09Oh, my God.
00:38:32Well, just like you figured, they'd all buy the lonesome.
00:38:36Must make me rich today.
00:38:55Willy says you know the good book.
00:38:58Sunday mornings, my husband and I read the Bible and pray together.
00:39:02You're invited to join us.
00:39:04Well, thank you, Miss Lahaye, but I don't think so.
00:39:07Aren't you a church-going man, Henry?
00:39:09Actually, I used to be a preacher.
00:39:12A preacher?
00:39:14Yeah, well, the Lord giveth, and the Lord take it away.
00:39:23What did he take away from you?
00:39:26Something very special.
00:39:29My wife.
00:39:42Finn!
00:39:44Come here.
00:39:46I need you to reshoe this horse.
00:39:48Yes, boss.
00:40:10Morning, Mrs. McLean.
00:40:13Mr. Lahaye?
00:40:18You and Missy going into town today?
00:40:20Yes, we are.
00:40:23Mrs. McLean, I know when we first met. I was...
00:40:27Out here? Neighbors need one another, Mr. Lahaye.
00:40:31I couldn't agree more.
00:40:33Please.
00:40:43Oh, Rufo!
00:40:55Come on in a second!
00:41:05Let's take it up.
00:41:10You make it look so easy, Sonny.
00:41:14Well, practice lots of hours to make it look like that.
00:41:18Okay, come here.
00:41:20Remember how I showed you. You coil it in your left hand.
00:41:23Make sure there ain't no kinks in the line.
00:41:25This is the noose.
00:41:28Okay?
00:41:30Let's see what you got.
00:41:37Loosen your wrist.
00:41:39When you're ready, cast it off.
00:41:43Missed again.
00:41:44It's all right, keep practicing.
00:41:46Get another rope.
00:41:56Good day.
00:42:00I'm Missy Lahaye.
00:42:02He seems like a nice boy.
00:42:04My brother.
00:42:06I'm glad to hear that he has family.
00:42:08I've been a little worried about him.
00:42:10He's fine.
00:42:12And your mother and father?
00:42:16They're gone.
00:42:18No offense, ma'am, but...
00:42:20it ain't your business worrying about someone who's not your kin.
00:42:23It's just Christian charity, Mr. Huff.
00:42:30Hope we're not interrupting you, ma'am.
00:42:33What do you want, Trent?
00:42:36I think you better get saddled up.
00:42:39We got some riding to do.
00:42:42I think you can do it.
00:42:44I think you can do it.
00:42:48I think you can do it.
00:42:48I'm sorry.
00:42:49I did it!
00:42:50I broke the post!
00:42:52Gotta go now.
00:42:54Behave yourself.
00:42:55Keep practicing.
00:42:56You'll be back though.
00:42:58You know it.
00:43:00Got my rope.
00:43:15Get out of here.
00:43:19Get out of here.
00:43:19Is Sonny gone a lot?
00:43:21It's his job.
00:43:23He's making money so we can have a ranch trip around someday.
00:43:27He sounds like a very good brother.
00:43:45Got yourself a strong breed.
00:43:47Yeah, we'll know more after roundup.
00:43:50Let's call it a day.
00:44:00Now, children, and Mr. McLean, I want you to write these letters on your slates.
00:44:07And then sound them out.
00:44:09And when you know them, you'll have mastered the entire alphabet.
00:44:15Help each other out now.
00:44:22The weather's turning cold.
00:44:25And Sharkclaw and his camp will be leaving tomorrow, and you probably shouldn't get a chill riding over.
00:44:31So this was my last class for a while?
00:44:34The children have learned much from you, Mrs. LeHaye.
00:44:47We'll keep at it, Mr. McLean.
00:44:51Having a turbulent time finding a word that starts with an X.
00:44:55That is a difficult letter.
00:44:58Sean's always used an X to sign his name.
00:45:01Well, not for much longer.
00:45:17Is all be coming soon?
00:45:21Now, remember, really sound out the words with them.
00:45:25And when you come back, they'll be ready for the advanced readers.
00:45:30I'll keep them on it.
00:45:32Good.
00:45:33God go with you and your family, Sharkclaw.
00:45:39Miriam, I'll be seeing you.
00:45:42Yes, you will.
00:45:45Safe travels.
00:45:48Goodbye.
00:45:57Willie and the ranch hands have worked hard to ensure the livestock survive the long winter.
00:46:03That man over there, it's gonna be all your pees.
00:46:06Cookie and I have prepared the soil for a large garden next spring.
00:46:10I so enjoyed his companionship.
00:46:12Ben is cooking.
00:46:13Here, I just might make a sweet tater patch.
00:46:17We have large taters in here.
00:46:27It's all coming together.
00:46:29It's beginning to feel like home.
00:46:40All right.
00:46:42Can I have something a little better than what you need?
00:46:44Now, as we wait for snow, the ranch hands have time to go into town for some well-deserved relaxation.
00:46:49Tom, I got a bit of hand in a hand.
00:46:52Don't tell us what you got.
00:46:54I mean...
00:46:55Three.
00:46:55Oh, three corners of...
00:47:02As for Willie, he still works harder than anyone.
00:47:12Maybe more now, knowing the baby's coming.
00:47:19As we prepare for winter, I'm reminded of Isaiah preparing the way for our Savior's birth.
00:47:26And I think warmly of all of you as Christmas approaches.
00:47:42Are you warm enough?
00:47:44I'm fine.
00:47:46Why are you always so warm?
00:47:48Even your feet.
00:47:50Someone's got to warm those icy toes of yours.
00:47:55I guess that's why we're a perfect match.
00:47:59The sky looks like snow.
00:48:01We're lucky it held off this long.
00:48:05You know, I was thinking today.
00:48:07This is gonna be our first Christmas in this house, Willie.
00:48:12I bet you miss your family.
00:48:14All those family traditions you talk about.
00:48:17Yeah, sure, I miss them.
00:48:20But we'll start new traditions here.
00:48:23Well, with the weather settling in,
00:48:25this might be our last chance of getting to town for a while.
00:48:29Better tell Santa what you want for Christmas.
00:48:32No, nothing store-bought.
00:48:33That would be just a waste of money.
00:48:37Well, what then?
00:48:40All I want for Christmas is to be surrounded by the people we care about.
00:48:57This year is mine.
00:49:00No.
00:49:04You got the watch.

00:54:09Goodbye.
00:54:39Thank you, Mrs. LaHaye. This is the finest Christmas dinner I've had in many a year.
00:54:46Many a year is the best one I ever had.
00:54:51Well, thank you. But I couldn't have done it without Cookie.
00:54:54Well, thank you, ma'am.
00:54:58How's it time to open presents?

00:55:57Thank you, Mrs. LaHaye.
00:56:00This is the best Christmas I ever had.
00:56:03Me, too.
00:56:08What is it, Scotty?
00:56:10This is the first Christmas present I ever got.
00:56:23Well, gentlemen, I know how you all feel about Bible reading.
00:56:27But it wouldn't be Christmas without it.
00:56:29So, you are welcome to stay.
00:56:31But if you want to leave...
00:56:33I believe I'd like to stay, ma'am.
00:56:37Yeah.
00:56:38I'd like to stay, too.
00:56:40Me, too, ma'am.
00:56:48Gospel according to Luke.
00:56:50Gospel according to Luke.
00:56:59And so, Joseph went up from Galilee to the city of Nazareth,
00:57:05to Judea, to be enrolled with Mary, his betrothed,
00:57:09who was with child.
00:57:11And while they were there, the time came for her to be delivered.
00:57:15And she gave birth to her firstborn son.
00:57:18And she wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger.
00:57:22And an angel of the Lord appeared above them,
00:57:24and the glory of the Lord shone around them.
00:57:26And they were filled with fear.
00:57:29And the angel said to them,
00:57:31Be not afraid, for behold, I bring you good news of a great joy,
00:57:36which will come to all the people.
00:57:37For unto you this day is born in the city of David, the Savior,
00:57:43who is Christ the Lord.
00:57:45Amen.
00:57:47Amen.
00:57:47Amen.
00:57:48Amen.
00:57:50Amen.
00:57:51Amen.
00:57:52Amen.
00:57:52Amen.
00:57:53Amen.
00:57:55Amen.
00:57:56Amen.
00:57:57Amen.
00:57:59Amen.
00:58:05Amen.
00:58:10Amen.
00:58:11Amen.
00:58:14Amen.
00:58:24How?
00:58:28I've missed you, neighbor.
00:58:30I've missed you, too.
00:58:52Sonny! Sonny!
00:58:59Oh, now, isn't that sweet?
00:59:01There's nothing good and decent with you guys.
00:59:04Hey, Mason, come on.
00:59:07Let's give him some privacy.
00:59:08Oh, well, that's just real nice of you, Trent.
00:59:19Oh, I've really got a lot of stuff to tell you about.
00:59:22Um, it's kind of hard to know what to start.
00:59:27Oh, sir, two glasses of whiskey.
00:59:29Read him and wait.
00:59:32I'll go around back.
00:59:35Deal, boys.
00:59:39As long as the old man don't blow it over here.
00:59:41That's a parent right there.
00:59:45Mind if I sit in?
00:59:48We're just about to leave.
00:59:49I'm out.
00:59:50Oh, come on, Scotty.
00:59:51Just a few more hands.
00:59:52I can win it all back.
00:59:54I feel it.
00:59:55Let's go, Finn.
00:59:56You're almost out of money anyway.
00:59:57Oh, but he doesn't pay you.
00:59:58Well, like all cowboys, we get paid when the cattle is sold.
01:00:03No, no, no.
01:00:04Mr. La Haye pays us anyway.
01:00:06He dig up a tin of dollar bills he did just to pay us.
01:00:10It's like a buried treasure.
01:00:12Hey, don't listen to him.
01:00:13He's drunk.
01:00:14Now, come on, Finn.
01:00:24It's like buried treasure.
01:00:45Oh, Henry's going to Sunday morning meeting.
01:00:49Well, maybe I should be going, too.
01:00:53If believing the way they does makes them the way they is, it bides looking into sometime.
01:01:05Henry, will you be so kind as to lead us in prayer?
01:01:10I don't know, ma'am.
01:01:12I'm afraid I'm out of practice.
01:01:16Kind of hard to start.
01:01:22It's okay to stumble.
01:01:24He's ready to catch you.
01:01:38Lord, sometimes we look but don't perceive.
01:01:49Sometimes we listen but don't understand.
01:01:53Please, open our ears and eyes to your truth.
01:02:00Amen.
01:02:01Amen.
01:02:02Amen.
01:02:05It's open to everyone on Sunday.
01:02:11Oh, Finn.
01:02:12Oh, I'm so happy to see you.
01:02:13Please come in.
01:02:21Sorry, Moose.
01:02:23You have to jump on me.
01:02:25What do you want?
01:02:26I want your money.
01:02:28Let's go.
01:02:29Follow him.
01:02:30Get up.
01:02:31Move it out.
01:02:34Hey, there.
01:02:36Come on.
01:02:36Let's go.
01:02:37Come on.
01:02:39Come on.
01:02:40Come on.
01:02:40Good Sunday morning to y'all.
01:02:43Come on.
01:02:57Sonny?
01:03:02Jeff, I didn't know.
01:03:04I thought she was in town.
01:03:06What you doing?
01:03:10Ain't this sweet.
01:03:12All right, all of you sit down.
01:03:15Come on.
01:03:19You too, kid.
01:03:22Just do as the man says.
01:03:29I'll just go over and get my treasure, man.
01:03:32Leave her alone.
01:03:35Now, I missed on purpose, but I won't do it twice.
01:03:40Please, you can see she's expected.
01:03:42So am I.
01:03:43I'm expecting to come back here with more money than I left with.
01:03:48I don't know what makes you think that there's any money.
01:03:50Well, you're Norwegian.
01:03:54Cowpoke has a tendency to run off at the mouth after a couple of pints.
01:03:58Showing off of his money and bragging about how his boss has a treasure buried on his land.
01:04:05Tie him up.
01:04:12You do as he says, Missy.
01:04:14You'll be all right.
01:04:16You remember when we dug that hole?
01:04:17I think I remember.
01:04:20You'll be fine.
01:04:23All right.
01:04:25Enough saying.
01:04:26Let's make me rich today.
01:04:43Hurry it up.
01:04:45I need something to dig with.
01:04:47Well, then, use your hands.
01:04:50Make it quick.
01:05:02Is that it or not?
01:05:05Well, then, toss it over.
01:05:31You're going to have to show me where the rest of the money is.
01:05:34But you have all the money.
01:05:36There is no more.
01:05:37No, I don't have all the money.
01:05:40Is that Norwegian?
01:05:42He wasn't spending silver.
01:05:44He was spending cash.
01:05:56I could just about eat me a whole side of beef right now.
01:05:59Well, if you turn me loose, I'll cook you whatever you want.
01:06:04Like rat stew.
01:06:05Oh, now, how stupid do you think I am?
01:06:08You're working for Trent, ain't you?
01:06:10Equal partners is what we is.
01:06:13Is that right, Sonny?
01:06:14You equal partners with these lowlives?
01:06:17Shut your mouth!
01:06:23Huh.
01:06:23Ooh.
01:06:25What'd you tell your brother, Sonny?
01:06:28What'd you tell him what you do to make money?
01:06:31Tell him all you do is rob innocent people.
01:06:33Probably been involved in a murder or two.
01:06:35That's a lie.
01:06:37Tell him he's wrong, Sonny.
01:06:39You ain't never killed nobody.
01:06:40Tell him, Sonny.
01:06:42Tell him you ain't like these other bad men.
01:06:46I ain't never killed nobody.
01:06:48Never.
01:06:53Don't you see?
01:06:56I'm doing this for us, Jeff.
01:06:58Your future, you and me, and the life we're trying to have.
01:07:01No, Sonny.
01:07:03Can't mean that.
01:07:05What would Mom and Pa say about your thieving ways?
01:07:07They'd say good for you, Sonny.
01:07:10Trying to make a life for you and your little brother.
01:07:12So you think they're looking down from heaven right now, and they're proud of you?
01:07:19Aren't you tired of living in that boarding house?
01:07:21Huh?
01:07:23No place that's really yours?
01:07:25I want a better life for us, Jeff.
01:07:28That's why I'm doing this.
01:07:30It's folks to my friends, Sonny.
01:07:32Mrs. Lehaven teaching me to read.
01:07:35Mr. Lehaven fetches me for the Sunday meetings, and he's teaching me ranching.
01:07:39These are the kind of people things always work out for.
01:07:41They'll be fine.
01:07:44We ain't taking nothing from them.
01:07:45They can't get back ten times over.
01:07:52When this is over, you and me can spend all the time you want together.
01:08:18Get it out of there.
01:08:46You got a key for this?
01:08:48No.
01:08:54Don't trust nobody anymore.
01:09:02Oh, my.
01:09:04Isn't that great?
01:09:10Put your hands in the air.
01:09:14You know how to use that?
01:09:21I missed on purpose.
01:09:24I won't do it twice.
01:09:26Shooting a man's a different story.
01:09:28A good Christian woman like yourself wouldn't hurt anyone.
01:09:33So what are you going to do?
01:09:43That's two more shots.
01:09:45Because you still believe me.
01:09:50Oh, God.
01:09:55Sorry.
01:09:56I can use a look.
01:09:57Help her!
01:09:58Help her!
01:10:19This is for your own good.
01:10:28Look. Where's the woman, Trent? What did you do?
01:10:36Where is she? Go get her. Go find her. What are you doing here?
01:10:40It's all right, Jack. I will. I will. Get her.
01:10:42It's all right. Listen to me. Listen to me.
01:10:45I will, Jack. What did you do with that girl? Where is she?
01:10:48It's all right. It's all right, Jack. It's all right.
01:10:52Where is she, Trent? You better tell me she ain't hurt her, so help me.
01:10:59Come on. Stand up slowly.
01:11:07Drop your gun, Sonny, or he's dead.
01:11:09Missy.
01:11:12Missy?
01:11:13Sonny, go cut Willie loose, and don't you so much as nick him.
01:11:23Find it hard to believe you got the drop on Trent.
01:11:26Well, I got his gun and his dignity.
01:11:44Missy, pick up the gun and move away from him.
01:11:57Looks like you got me.
01:12:00Sonny?
01:12:01Tie him up, just like you did us.
01:12:04And maybe we'll ask the law to spare your life.
01:12:11Here, let me help you with that, Sonny.
01:12:19Sonny!
01:12:29Don't go away, Sonny.
01:12:31Don't go.
01:12:32Don't go away.
01:12:36Fix him up, won't you?
01:12:37He wouldn't have hurt you.
01:12:38Oh, I would fix him if I could.
01:12:40I knew he wouldn't hurt me.
01:12:45I'm so sorry for what I've done, ma'am.
01:12:48Please forgive me.
01:12:51Don't hold my deeds against him.
01:12:54He's got no one now.
01:12:55He's got nobody.
01:12:58Oh, no, forgiveness is yours, Sonny.
01:13:01He'll be with us now, I promise.
01:13:11You grew up to be a man that Pa would be proud of you.
01:13:17Hear me, Jeff?
01:13:19I will.
01:13:21Then you promise me you won't spend your days missing me.
01:13:26Ask me no questions.
01:13:28Tell you no lies.
01:13:35I'll pray for you, Sonny.
01:13:37Now don't go wasting your prayers on me, ma'am.
01:13:43I've done too many bad things for God to be forgiven.
01:13:46Long ago, there was a thief left on a cross to die just like you, Sonny.
01:13:52But then he heard the glorious words of the Lord about redemption.
01:13:57And that he knew that very day he was going to be in paradise.
01:14:03He's waiting for you, Sonny.
01:14:06Go with God.
01:14:07He's going to go with God.
01:14:14Oh, God.
01:14:47Thou anointest my head with oil, and my cup runneth over.
01:14:53Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life.
01:15:00And I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.
01:15:05Amen.
01:15:26Jeff's part of our family now.
01:15:29Yep.
01:15:32If someday he wants to take the La Hainang,
01:15:37well, I'd be fine with that, too.
01:15:41That would be nice, Willie.
01:15:49We are going to need a bigger house.
01:15:53I just think I can knock out this back wall,
01:15:55maybe put in a bedroom or two.
01:15:58Willie.
01:16:03Yeah?
01:16:04I think maybe you should put your boots back on.
01:16:09It's time.
01:16:11But Miriam said we were still a few weeks away.
01:16:14No, I think you'd best be getting Miriam.
01:16:17Now.
01:16:20What's the matter?
01:16:23You're going to sleep in the bunkhouse tonight, Jeff,
01:16:25just like a real cowboy.
01:16:29I'm having the baby.
01:16:51Maybe I'll go check on this cattle.
01:16:55Okay, sure.
01:16:57I'll go with you.
01:16:59Uh, maybe I'll wait a little bit.
01:17:04Okay.
01:17:05Yeah, I'll wait.
01:17:08It ain't your firstborn you're worrying about.
01:17:11Now quit it.
01:17:12You're making the bus crazy.
01:17:17It's gotten awfully quiet in there.
01:17:38It's a boy.
01:17:40It's a boy.
01:17:47Come and meet your son.
01:18:15We never did get around to deciding what to name him.
01:18:19I was thinking,
01:18:21Matthew,
01:18:23after your brother.
01:18:27Matthew, Isaiah,
01:18:29LeHaye.
01:18:33Maddie.
01:18:37It fits.
01:18:48Shoo.
01:18:49Shoo.
01:18:50Shoo.
01:18:50She needs her rest.
01:18:52It's all right, Miriam.
01:18:54You can come closer.
01:19:16I remember thinking that day we had finally reached the end of our journey.
01:19:21But now I know that the journey's long and lasts a lifetime.
01:19:27Each day on the ranch,
01:19:28I am reminded of God's plan in the never-ending circle of life.
01:19:52I love you.
01:19:56Bye, Willie.
01:19:59Bye, Willie.
01:20:00Bye, Willie.
01:20:08Your grandsons grow bigger and stronger each day.
01:20:12Matthew has your eyes
01:20:13and hopes to see his granddaddy soon.
01:20:15Bye, Henry.
01:20:16Jeff has thrived,
01:20:18and Willie and I are very proud
01:20:19he has taken the name of LeHaye.
01:20:22Bye-bye, Scotty.
01:20:24Bye.
01:20:25Bye.
01:20:26Bye.
01:20:28Bye.
01:20:28Bye.
01:20:29Bye.
01:20:29Bye.
01:20:29Bye.
01:20:37You take care of everything, Mr. Hay.
01:20:39We've been back pretty soon now.
01:20:42See you, Cookie.
01:20:43Take care.
01:20:44Safe travels.
01:20:46The herd is increased by another 40 head,
01:20:49and Willie and the ranch hands are driving some of them to the market.
01:20:52Bye.
01:20:57Bye.
01:20:58Bye.
01:20:59Bye.
01:21:14The garden has given us a bounty of vegetables to put up for the winter.
01:21:18Who knows what the next year will bring.
01:21:21I am confident the love of God and family will light our path,
01:21:25and a renewed faith in the words,
01:21:27For everything there is a season and a time for every matter under heaven.
01:21:36I am confident the love of God and family will light our path.
01:21:47I am confident the love of God and family will light our path.
01:21:49I am confident the love of God and family will light our path.
