Greatest song ever written . I lost my dad at 12 . Then was abused by my grandfather who raised me after . I spent my life in and out of prison and putting needles in my arm . Everytime I was beat and broken I use to feel like this was god talking to me . Nothing makes me cry . I've hardened over the years but this song brought me peace . I'm now 42 clean with a great family . God has a plan for us all . We stray but we always end up were he wants us. God bless you all
🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾💔💔💔 my sister passed away this morning from battling cancer. Lord help mend our broken hearts but allow us to put our total faith & trust in you. God you are the master strategist that know us better than ourself so I put all what we going through in your hands forever 🙌
My dad committed suicide when I was 11. He was 66. We lost my mama to pancreatic cancer when I was 6. He was heartbroken. Today she would have been 84. This was played at both of their funerals. I miss them both terribly. I thank God everyday for them adopting me. 💚
Love this song! I just lost my 17 year old daughter aapril 15th, 2022. I'm completely lost, and broken. I miss her so much. This pain is the worst! Listening to this song gave me comfort. Knowing she's with our lord! Mommy loves you and misses you so much my babygirl. I was so honored to be picked as your mommy for 17 years. I was always so proud of you!! 😯💔
My condolences, I can’t imagine any worst pain than losing your child. May God comfort you continually and draw you two together. Dear Lord please bless and comfort this lady and watch over her and her family be their strength give them your grace to come through this to brighter and better days,Amen🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
I know the disarray inside that happens, even as I push on and reconnect with friends and extended fam after losing my Wife in Nov. 2023. Carrying your Wife's ashes into your home, and a week before Thanksgiving at that, is no way of going over the traditional Threshold.
I have stage 4 cancer in the stomach and the rest of my body 😩, I've been fighting this since 2011 and now I feel it's at the end finally, no treatments just faith in God that help me live this long. I'm ready to go home.
I dedicate this song to all of you who lost loved ones .may the lord give you the comfort and peace that only he can give .serve the God all mighty and some day you will be rejoicing with your loved one.
Mary Link thank you for ur beautiful words and thinking of us all xx my beautiful brother Maurice took his life May 25 2019 he was only 37 I miss him so much my heart is broken in a million pieces 💔💔
today April 2020. Corona virus is spreading all over the world. Only in Jesus we put our trust to heal those who are sick and to recover the situation. Thank You Jesus.
I lost my dad due to brain cancer March last year. Last Easter I was still in shock and didn't get emotional. It's Easter today and I'm eating lunch with my family. One person will be missing. This was his favorite song that he sang alot. I can mostly recall what his voice sounded like when I hear this song. He lived far longer than everybody expected him to due to a health condition he'd had for more than 50 years. He never complained about the pain he was always in or how near the end he could barely get up let alone walk. I miss you so much daddy and I hope you are at peace and no longer hurting. Rest now cause you are truly home.
I also had lost my father due to brain cancer, and melanoma (which is a skin cancer). I lost him in 2015 and this was his favorite song and he loved singing. Thank you so much for passing your gift down to me! Love you dad! I hope to see you soon!!
I lost my daddy when i was 13 years old the only daddy i knew was my grandpa i wasn't allowed to call him grandpa only dad daddy papa or pop that was it and i lost my uncle when i was 16 and here i am with a baby girl that won't meet her papa or her uncle kenny I'm 20 now i know your pain
My big sister is passing away. She's had so much pain in her 39 years. I only hope and pray when its her time she's no longer in pain and she finds peace.
I dedicate this to my 49-year-old son who died from a massive coronary on July 20th, 2017. He used to call me every day and tell me, "I love you Mama." His 3 sisters and I miss him so much! He loved to sing country music and gospel.
My granny played this at my dads funeral. It’s been over a year and I still can’t breathe listening to this song. My heart hurts so much. But my dad was a very strong Christian man and I know that he is dancing in the streets of gold and singing with the angels choir.
Lost my grandma this weekend to a stroke... I'm so thankful for all the memories, and that she knew where she was going when she passed! THANK YOU LORD FOR SALVATION!!!!
I lost my Brother on his Birthday and my Bestfriend in Mother's Day. They both took their lives. My heart and prayers are with you. May you find peace through Loving memories
@@cliftonguyette2498 you must be a hard core catholic and believe in purgatory for those that take there lives, Go back to the bible and purgatory was made up before Christ was born.. look it up
We had this played at my MOTHER'S funeral on June 26, 2021 and I fall apart everytime I hear it...MOM...I miss you every second of every single day...I know you no longer hurt, and I am rejoicing in that but my pain is almost unbearable ...I miss you so, so much!

My grandma loved this song I lost my grandma Aug 14th it's been 2 years it kills me everyday she was my best friend I love and muss u grandma deeply everyday...❤❤❤❤❤😘😘😘😘😘R.I.P. Grandma Shelia❤❤❤
Im currently having chemotherapy and have been told my life expecdency is 4 months. this is a beautiful song that is and has been shared by many people suffering and the people who love them. im lucky to have a wonderful woman and family that care. ive asked for this to be playeed when my day comes.
This very song was played at my grandmother's funeral, I listened to this song for months.I'm still in the first stage of grieving, not wanting to believe that they are gone. It is so hard to lose someone so close to you. R.I.P grandmother
i lost my uncle today and this was a song that he really liked, i love you so much uncle jimmy i miss you more than the world thank you so much for reminding of my worth and who i am, i don’t know how i’ll go in without you i wish i could’ve said goodbye
This was my grandpa’s favorite song and, unfortunately, I will be singing this song at his funeral on the 9/17! The message is simple and peaceful and that was how my grandpa lived his life, he was a simple family man who loved his god, his family, and his community! He was an MP during WW2 and was on honor guard after (even guarded the caskets of JFK, Dwight D Eisenhower, and general MacArthur), then spent over 40 years of his life as a preacher! He was a true patriot, someone who loved this great country and the people in it, and he was a true believer in God! Go rest HIGH on that mountain Gramps, you deserve the everlasting peace in God’s arms!!
To my grandma who raised me while my dad worked, who was my second mother, whom was my go to when my dad wasn't there. To the woman who shaped me to be who I am today. The warm hugs and kisses. The long conversations we had. Just being able to spend time with you so much. Its been almost 2 years since you've gone and I miss you grandma. Fly high grandma. ❤❤❤
I just lost my mom yesterday at 130am it was hard this song helps im playing it at my service thanks for the song its the hardest thing to do is say goodbye to your mom
Jameson Gibson ...I lost my Dad to a liver disease. I know the pain of losing a parent all to well. Jan. 17th made 5 years even though it seems like yesterday. My heart goes out to you! Bless you Jameson💟
i lost my dad to cancer also,, it was difficult ,,but as u stated he is no longer suffering,,he is at peace now,,and is resting well,,god bless all who have suffered or lost a loved one ,,,my heart goes out to you all,,god bless,
13 years since my mama left me and the pain today is still just as immense as it was the day that news was delivered to me!! Love your loved ones! Dont take them for granted!
I dedicate this song for all the families and friends that lost all there belongings, their homes, their happiness , hear this song in an re-open heart of just believe that you will come back as beautiful as ever, Love to each and every one of you. Blessings and Prayers
I have listened to this song at many funerals. My Dad was a pastor. Every funeral he did was always geared to encourage and lift up the survivors, it was never focused on the departed. How was that? He always gave a sermon / service encouraging people to find Christ as their savior, so that when their time came, they would know where their afterlife would be. I always appreciated that from about age 6 to this present day. My Dad is gone, his work here is done, he is with the Father. I know I will see him again one day, but it will be in another world, a better place. God is waiting for you to ask him for help folks. Invite Christ into your heart. These troubled times are easier for all with Christ taking the wheel and driving the car.
My brother died 4-5 years ago and this song brings me memories of him. Cherish the moments with your loved ones. You only have one life so make it the best
Lost my brother this year in June 😞 to knife crime... just came across this song and it’s got me in bits, I hope he is at peace now and free from this horrible world.. I miss you so much rest easy my darling xx
This song was sung at my dad's funeral on Nov 1, 2008, and at my mom's on Jan 29, 2009. Still makes me cry every single time I hear it. Miss y'all both.
This song was sang at my cousins funeral in September of 2020 he was sadly taken at the age of 21 after shootings himself in the chest. He was worked on for 45 minutes after taking the shot but unfortunately was pronounced dead at 7:55pm on September 17th of 2020 8 days before my 14th birthday it sucks getting woken up by your mother crying telling you that your best friend took his own life please anyone that is reading this don’t be afraid to reach out for help you may not know it but there is always someone who cares. 🙏🏻❤️love you Zachary
So sorry for your loss, my nephew got murdered Nov 1,2022 and it is so painful that we didn’t have the chance to tell him goodbye and how much we love him 😭😭 may God give us comfort, his life was taken. Away at 18 yrs old RIP Joshua
I lost my grandpa on January 26th. He served in the Navy, a partner to his beautiful wife for 62 years. A grandpa to his 12 grandchildren. I’ve never seen him mad, he was always positive. One of a kind. Thank you for this beautiful song, it means a lot to me.
I want to send this to my brother in heaven . Daniel Morrow who took this life do to PTSD , he was a man of war DESERT STROM. I miss you brother you was a hero to all of us. Love you .Your Sister Beatrice
I lost my best friend due to addiction. It never gets any easier. Next month marks 1 year. She was only 26 years old. A part of my soul died right with her. I hope she's resting high on that mountain wherever she may be.
This is one of the songs that was played for my Mom at her funeral. She was only 55 when she passed from a surgery to remove pancreatic cancer. We all thought she would be better but she passed 2/2/22 from that surgery. I was only 23 and pregnant. I just gave birth to my Son 6/14/22. She was so excited for him. I miss her so much. No one should have to lose their Mom this young. It’s so hard. Go rest high on that mountain Mama. I will see you again!
Lost my Dad yesterday from Alzheimer’s. He loved Vince Gill. I remember going on vacation one year and he played Vince Gill CD’s the whole way there. I had to play this song in his memory. He’s finally at peace now
My neighbor (my bff) promised me the day before he died that he would see me again soon... I wish that was true, but if I could redo that day, I would! If I could do something a million times over, it would be to be with him more and talk more. God, how I miss him! I cry every time I think of him. I sadly was not able to make his funeral, and didn’t hear about it until I came back from a Drill Meet for AFJROTC. Well, there is one thing that he was correct about... We will see one another soon, my brother. You rest your weary head, and I’ll take over your work here on Earth.
We played this song 2021 March 10th, for my mom in the room where me and my brother were told that she was gone, I was in shock but I started humming the song and my brother and dad put that song on my mother's memorial video, I didn't cry at the funeral because I was still in shock, but this song is very precious because when I listen to it I can feel my mother's presence and I can tell she is at peace🙏
Dear Lyric Lady 007 thank you for posting this. On the afternoon of July 30th 2020 at 4:45 pm my Mother and I played this for my Father as he was passing away and we re assured him that he could leave us to go be with Jesus and our Heavenly Father. It was beautiful and peaceful to see him shed a tear and a glimmer of a smile as he flew off with the angels.🙏🏽God bless
May my two beautiful babies rest in peace in Jesus's arm. Go rest high on the that mountain Howie and Paige. Keep watch over us all. My heart is so torn and broken with out you both.
i still ball my eyes out to this song because it was played at both my grnadparetns funerals, i didnt cry in front of anyone so nobody really knows how much their deaths affected me, my beautiful grandma passed january 17th 2018 and my grandpa on febuary 3rd 2018, it was a rough start to the year i would give anything to see themm again even if its just for 20 minutes so i can tell them how much i love and miss them and get to say a proper goodbye, just to hear their voices gain
My Daddy went home to be with Jesus today. I love the line in this song, wish I could see their faces when they hear your sweet voice sing. Heaven is hearing that Sweet Bass Voice today.
I lost my Mama December 10, 2019. This song was played at the end of her funeral. I miss her terribly. She was a sweet, kind hearted, beautiful lady. I think about her all the time. We love you, Mama
My grandmother died when I was in class, I get the call... I cried as much as I do when I listen to this song. Only God knows how much I miss her, I think of her everyday, but she’s in a better place now with her father in Heaven. She’s watching down upon me, and making sure that I become successful. Thank you, grandma!!! May God treat you as kind as we did on this Earth. I miss you more and more as the days go by. I’m glad you’re with our father, but sad... I’ll soon join you, then we can sing the Jubilee. Let’s sing our praises of old, and still love each other. She died when I was in 7th Grade, my mom gave me the call... I cried a river that day, but decided to stay and continue to help my team.
After reading all these comments, I'm really surprised that only one of them mentions what a talented singer and songwriter Vince Gill is, and none of them mentions what the song is about. He started writing it when Keith Whitley passed away, and then he finally finished it when his brother died. That's why he gets so emotional, whenever he performs it. Thanks, Vince, for a beautiful and touching song.
I want to dedicate this song of a friend of mine who lost his battle with his demons 2006-2019 never gonna forget that smile on ur face bro miss seeing you around 😞♥️
MAKIYAH MARTIN the big 60 for yours too... my mamaws birthday was October 26 and died this year in July... it’s so so hard and I know your pain. All I know is they are watching over us.
It's been 3 months since the passing of my father in law. And we all miss him so much. He's taught all of us so much and what to expect. But deep down in our hearts he's in our hearts. And I wish it wasn't hes time yet. But the lord needed another angel. So he called up my father in law and told him here's you're wings it's time for you to spread your wings and fly up high into our kingdom. R.I.P. dad
I lost my step dad, which I considered my dad, on March 2, 2019. Never felt so lost in my life. I miss that man to no end. He was a great man and I know he is with god. Go rest high Sammy. I love and miss you so much. Until we meet again
I lost my father march 29 2019 to a heart attack ...he was my bestfriend and one of the best Whitetail buck hunters I've ever seen and one dam good dozer operator...i am a believer of God ...so there will be a time we meet again...god bless
I to lost my dad in August stepdad but my dad none the less he lost his battle with cancer it took him away from me that is exactly what I'm going through right now but doing the best we can do is keep moving forward
This was playing at my grandmother's funeral and I lost it I couldn't function for 3 weeks after it happened I'm missing her everyday I wish I could have spent more time with her 😭😭
I stayed strong for my grandfather at my grandma's funeral. Two days not a tear. Then, and the end of funeral service this song came on and my wall crumbled down. It's rough, but just know there's someone watching over you now.
Majestic, it’s ok to grieve. I lost my wife to a 3 month battle with a stroke, severe stroke. I spent every waking moment with her those last three months of her life, and the day she died I just wanted one more day. It’s never enough. Love those you can, hold them close and let them know what they mean to you. Life is short, even if it’s a hundred years
I lost my father when he was 62 years of age, my mom and dad got a divorced when i was young. Years past he developed dementia at a young age, it got to a point where he couldnt live his old life anymore bc of the toll that mental illness. Since he lived in the south and i lived in new england it was hard seeing him so losing that connection was rough but it was even harder to deal with when heard he passed away. I wasnt as close to my dad, i wish i was but losing him was still the hardest thing ive has to deal with and hearing that song again kept my memories strong with what i have to remember him by thank you to whoever is reading this the loss is is hard but the memories remain strong
my grandma passed away when i was 4. this was her favorite song. sometimes i find myself listening to it at night when i think about her. i still feel guilty because the only memories i have of her are saying i didn’t want her food because “i didn’t want to catch the cancer”, and the other being the night she died - i was running in and out of the hospital room while she was dying because i didn’t know what was going on. i know i was only 4 but i feel awful.
My granny passed away today in my arms. SHe had a short lived but fierce battle with vulva cancer. I saw the strongest woman I knew reduced to a withering shell. She died in my arms. Her last words were "I love you too". This song immediately started playing in my head because I knew her pain and suffering were no more.
same my Grandaddy just died at the age of 66 I'm 15 but the last words he said were love you buddy.. he died two weeks later he was screaming in pain from stage 4 prostate cancer
I know your pain...My brother passed just passed away on the tenth of November (yesterday). He was the best person I had ever known. He taught how to have humility, yet boldness and love in any circumstance. He died of Brain cancer. He died peacefully in his sleep, and we were all holding him. I will pray for you, just know that God's blessing was pouring on you that moment. The holy spirit came in that room to escort your grandmother to a place unimaginably good, and you surely received a blessing from him and God, as I did with my brother. For all who lost loved ones, we will never be the same, but we will be okay. We should thank God for letting them pass into heaven, their pain is gone, and their struggle is over. Cry out, in thanks. It is okay to miss them, but we must not let ourselves not be happy for our loved ones in heaven. My blessing is on all of you.
I play this all the time lately and think of my uncle Paul and my Grandma I dedicated this song to my family!!! God is truly great and we will all be together again in heaven with no pain or sickness.
Praise all our loved one's who die...giving praise to our Lord. We are the only thing that they can take with them. Not money or possessions, just those who have faith in Jesus Christ.
My son dedicated this song to his Dad who passed away suddenly. My heart breaks for my kids and for myself ... its hard finding out you still loved someone after they are gone.💔 Missing you Jimbo ❤
This was one of the songs played at my grandma's funeral and I listen to it every night in memory of her I miss her so much. I love you Grandma I wish I could hug you again I'm sorry I don't visit your grave alot it just hurts me extremely bad to see your name on the headstone. R.i.p grandma
My dad and my brother went hiking in the mountains. It started snowing super hard and it got so cold suddenly that very night. There were almost 1000 searchers on the mountain they were on, searching for an entire week. Sadly, they were found deceased. This song is perfect 😔
I lost my mom on February 2, 2021. She lost the battle with COVID-19. Not long after, March 3, 2021 my dad joined my mom in heaven. He fought hard but always said if she went before him, he was going. His poor little heart couldn’t take her loss. They are now reunited again. Rest In Peace mama and daddy. 💜💙✝️💐
My aunt loved this song. It was just played at her Celebration of Life service yesterday. She was taken suddenly with no warning. I’ll love her forever and always! She meant the world to me! ❤️❤️
This is the most beautiful song. I'm blown away by the sincere, honest & heart-wrenching comments. I pray for all those who are experiencing the endless pain of losing a loved one. May God wrap his loving arms around you & comfort you.
