Old Christmas movie with tractor

So back in the late 70's, I remember watching a TV movie about a farm family at Christmas. Seems the farmer dragged a new organ (piano??) through a snowstorm to his church.

If memory serves, the tractor was a JD GP.

Anyone remember this? Anyone know a title?
 
I remember the movie not the title. Begining of the movie had a JD 8440 next to a grave yard, guy standing by a tombstone, wife walks up and the guy tells her "just showing dad the new tractor" or something like that. Thought about that movie the other day and wondered the name of it. Hopefully someone on here will know the name.
 
I remember this christmas movie, but I don't remember the title of it. I have tried to google it on the internet but haven't had any luck. Could it have been a Hallmark movie?
 
I READ THE BOOK BUT NEVER SAW THE MOVIE. IN THE BOOK IT WAS A HARMONIUM, A COMBINATION PIANO AND PUMP ORGAN, THAT THE FARMER'S WIPE DECIDED TO GIVE TO A NEIGHBOR. THE FARMER AND GRANDKIDS LOADED ON A SLEIGH PULLED BY A RUMLEY. PERHAPS THE MOVIE MAKER DID NOT HAVE A RUMLEY HANDY
 
I believe the book was called "I never played for my Father" Where the tractor was a Rumley, and the lost son was from the Civil War. The movie may have been the same name, but starred Jason Robards as the granpa. In it they used the John Deere D or Gp to take the harmonium to the church in the snowstorm. In it the lost son was from WWI. Both are good. I liked the ending with the note.
