We Love to Sing About Jesus is the third studio album by country music artists George Jones and Tammy Wynette released on November 6,1972,by Epic Records.
Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic derides the album,calling it "overproduced,overwrought and under-written" and,while praising their rendition of Tom T. Hall's "Me and Jesus",laments that "the bombastic production gets a little nerve-wracking about halfway through the album,and by the end of the record the music hasn't provided much inspiration. In all,a wasted opportunity."
Tammy Wynette was an American country music singer,considered among the genre's most influential and successful artists. Along with Loretta Lynn,Wynette helped bring a woman's perspective to the male-dominated country music field that helped other women find representation in the genre. Her characteristic vocal delivery has been acclaimed by critics,journalists and writers for conveying unique emotion. Twenty of her singles topped the Billboard country chart during her career. Her signature song "Stand by Your Man" received both acclaim and criticism for its portrayal of women's loyalty towards their husbands.
George Glenn Jones was an American country musician,singer,and songwriter. He achieved international fame for his long list of hit records,including his best-known song "He Stopped Loving Her Today",as well as his distinctive voice and phrasing. For the last two decades of his life,Jones was frequently referred to as the greatest living country singer. Country music scholar Bill Malone writes,"For the two or three minutes consumed by a song,Jones immerses himself so completely in its lyrics,and in the mood it conveys,that the listener can scarcely avoid becoming similarly involved." The shape of his nose and facial features earned Jones the nickname "The Possum". Jones has been called "The Rolls-Royce of Country Music" and had more than 160 chart singles to his name from 1955 until his death in 2013.

According to Bob Allen's book George Jones:The Life and Times of a Honky Tonk Legend,Jones was less than enthusiastic about the "musically middle-of-the-road love ballad that was almost inspirational in its unabashedly optimistic and romantic sentiments –a far cry from 'The Window Up Above,'" and it was only at his producer H.W. "Pappy" Daily's insistence that he recorded the song at all. "From Here To The Door" was written by Don Chapel,who was married to Tammy Wynette at the time. We Found Heaven Right Here on Earth at "4033" would rise to number 3 on the country album chart.
