My mom was dying in the hospital, me and my brother went to get food for everyone. "we had been at her side for days".while we waited a peace swept thru the both of us and we both recognized it, like the peace felt at salvation, we hurried back and mom had just passed, the peace of god was so thick no one could cry, what was one of the saddest days also was a witness to the salvation of jesus, couse mom despite anything never doubted her faith in calvery. Praise the lord for the miricals ive witnessed,
I never knew my mother, she died when I was 2 years old. I received her old bible, it was so well used, battered and falling to pieces, I believe I will see her when I get to heaven.
My mom was dying in the hospital bed most of her children was thire that was the hardest day I ever had to do but I no my mom is walking the streets of gold with Jesus and her dad

I left my mom in a coma to go back to Oklahoma from Atlanta. That was the most difficult thing I have ever done in my life! I returned not to many days to preach mymother’s service. My heart is still broken !
This is such a moving song First time i heart this song i croed all way thru the song Ill be 87 this month in very poor health. I cry every time this played
Those of u who are not touched by this song have problems.Jesus is going to return to this earth soon .U might not even believe in him then but l can guarantee that every knee will bow and every tongue will confess that He is The Christ and he is our living God .I for one sure don’t want to miss his return Amen
Kevin Sands We don’t really know what it’s like to give your life for others, people who hate you, it’s amazing, can’t wait to thank him...hug him, and really let him know how much he is loved....my mother knows, 10 yrs ago...thank you JESUS. So hope to see you there as well!
I held my mom's hand and watch as the angels came and got her. She kept looking and I knew what she was seeing. It was amazing. I love hearing Jimmy sing this song. It's brings tears but joy at the same time.

I too will see many loved ones in heaven. My Diane, who I lost way too early, my parents, my grandparents and many others. At 77, I'm really looking forward to it. Thank you Jesus for saving my soul!
On this day, January 17 2024 I heard the song I Believe. My all time favorite member of the Statler Brothers, Jimmy Fortune sang Ike a beautiful morning dove. He is incredibly talented. I love every song I have heard him sing. Fantastic entertainer!!!
Child, If You Drink This Water, You’ll Never Thirst Again! ❤ Praise Jesus! I cannot Wait To Get Home, and Thank Him Face To Face! My Father Knew Me When I was Still In The Womb!
I believe in God to. I lost my papa and grandma when I was a little girl. My papa died from smoking and my grandma died from the hospital. The hospital emergency floors were not clean so she got the infection from when the nurse dropped a needle into a puddle of blood and picked it back up and put it into my grandma’s arm and than it was to late she had the staff infection and that’s what killed my grandma in the hospital so watch the nurses very careful and make sure they wash their hands and throw away those dirty needles. My grandma was not here when I graduated from high school it was hard on me to walk across that stage at graduation in 2004. I cried because my grandparents were in heaven but I remembered that they were in heaven and not suffering in pain anymore. I walked with my head up high and remembering that my grandma was watching also my papa. They were the ones that had adopted me and my brother and sister and raised us up.
This song is for a wonderful Christian lady who left her earthly home to join God I'm her Heavenly home last night , R I P Sherri Cassady , you will always be loved and missed !!!!! Tommy Heaton
This is Mike McLeod and i was beside my mother when the Lord took her and that's why this song means so much to me. And I do Believe. Thank you so much jimmy fortune.
One of the most heart felt songs i have ever heard in my life! I also was with my momma when the angels came to take her home....Lord how i wanted to go with her that morning....I miss you momma oh so much it hurts! Wait for me my sweet angel i will be along shortly.
I heard this at church brings a tear to your eye makes u really think about your life and where u are going after u have passed away u have to believe in our Lord and savior to go to heaven so we all need to believe
I have listened to this song dozens of times, and it causes the tears to flow every time. We lost my Daddy in 2015 after a tragic fall in the woods. My sweet Mother joined him in heaven 5 days later when she suffered a stroke on the day that we buried my Dad. She passed into eternal life at 2 AM the next morning. They were married for 66 years and were only apart for that short few days after Dad died in the Bowling Green, Kentucky hospice center. I look forward to seeing them again in Glory when God closes this earth's short day.
Love this Song. Me and My Sister was there holding My Mommy's Hands. Watched her take her last Breath. My Sister felt someone tap her shoulders but no one there did. She said it was Mommy letting her know She was OK. Its been a Rough Year. The pain is still there so is the Emptiness in My Heart that I Have For My Momma. A Special place I had For Her.

I was with my mama the morning that God came to get her I'll never forget it this song hits home very hard for me I sure miss my mom and my dad too but I know where they are and one day I hope to be with them in heaven rest in peace always mom and dad
Thank you. I am very fortunate to have my 96 year old mother still with. She raised us all to believe in Jesus Christ and keep believing. I believe and am looking forward to seeing Him soon and very soon.
This is one of the absolute best songs of all time. Yes, I believe. Two years ago I lost my only son to the flu at 31. Five months later I lost my wife of 36 years at 58 from MS, and a stroke. I was by her side forever, and yes they believed. WE will meet again. This song brings me to tears. Would love to meet Jimmy. Met Dailey & Vincent two times.Give thanks, and pray every day. OUTSTANDING SONG!
I held my Mother's hand as she walked into heaven after a horrible battle with cancer almost 20 years ago. This song touches my heart as I know my Mother is in the loving arms of Jesus.
THIS SONG IS BEAUTIFUL WITH ALL THE BEAUTI GOD HAS HIVEN US HOW CAN ANYONE BE FOOL ENOUGH NOT TO BELIEVE IN ALL GOD HAS FOR US HEAVEN, HIS SON JESUS , CALVARY , AND BEST JESUS GIVENHIS LIFE FOR YOU AND ME PRAISE HIS PRECIOUS NAME FOREVER I'M SO GLAD I KNOW HIM LIFE IS WORTHLESS WITHOUT JESUS!!! !

Now that is how you sing a Gospel song, with power, passion and conviction. When you have a room full of some of the biggest names in the music industry who are also your peers giving you a standing ovation and applauding that is just AWESOME.
I’m my mothers baby out of 8 children. She has 7 grandchildren, and 11 great grandchildren. I laid next to her in a hospital recliner for 4 nights holding her hand. For the last 2, people were in and out. At 10:00 on May 3rd, the last people left. At 10:30 I pushed my chair up next to her and took her hand and told her she was an amazing mother, that she is so loved, that I love her. Within 5 minutes of laying down the room grew silent. I checked to see if she was breathing, she was. I put my head back down but couldn’t close my eyes. It was so peaceful, quiet, a few minutes passed, nurse came in to check her vitals to confirm. Through my tearful eyes I asked Mama if heaven was a glorious as she had been praying for. I’m thankful the song popped up today. ❤
Oh I believe there's a place called Heaven and I know this man called Jesus praise His holy name He lives in me and I could not live without Him oh Lord I thank Him for life and the life that's coming!!! Soon and very soon we'll see this precious man and get to praise Him for what He did for us on that old rugged cross!!! Oh what a day!!! I love this song and the singers
My step father passed away and today was his birthday. He used to take me aside when I’d visit in a small room that he would play country , bluegrass and gospel music. I miss him and my time with him listening to his favorite songs. He’s been on my heart and these songs bring me comfort believing I’ll see him again and knowing he’s still listening with me today. Happy birthday dad, love Jimmy.
Thank you Jesus for dying onthe cross for me . I am a sinner and I believe you are the son of God. Than you Jesus for forgiving me. You died upon a cross for all mankind thank you For rising and giving us the Holy ghost. I believe. Than you Jesus
I lost my mother on July 25 as well in 2010. On That day I used to feel anger and hurt, but now I have more of a feeling of peace . Sometime during that day without fail something happens or is said or maybe something as silly as a bird lighting a little closer than normal that makes me stop and smile for just a moment . She was no ordinary mom I was an only child and as a boy growing up I was close to my pops but Mom was my best friend. God , I miss her.
The message of this this song is a light in a very dark world where girls are being murdered for refusing to wear a headscarf, where Christians are being beheaded for remaining Christian, where one country is "annexing" other countries. Jesus is the light of the world. Thanks for this Christ honoring song. God bless you all!

Thank you God for this gift of music from your anointed son :Jimmy Fortune. HIs song speaks truth and brings hope,healing and peace. Thank you Jimmy ,Thank you Father.
I Believe was written on October 30, 2016 by myself and Mindi Catenzero. I was married to her older half-brother Ivan C. Parker. The song was composed as the family gathered for the funeral of Mari Catenzero Castanza. The song was originally written in Flemish. When my husband arrived, he helped us translate I Believe into English. Mari had not always lived a Christian life, but after the birth of her youngest son, Scott Catenzero, she had a reversion to her Catholic faith. Mari had raised Mindi and Scott as a single mother. She had many regrets near the end of her life that she had not lived the right kind of life and set a better example for her children and grandchildren. But we had assurance that she would be in a better place after death. I was asked to sing I Believe at her funeral. It was very emotional.
I was holding my Mama's and Sister's hands with my head on their pillows as they closed their eyes and went to Heaven. This song is beautiful and close to my Heart as I Believe also . I listen to it all the time. Keeps me close to them until the day I will see them again. Thank you
When I hear this song I can imagine my momma doing all those things she loved. She can breathe, sing and praise the Lord.I lost my mom almost 5 years ago but not a day goes by that I don't think about her. My momma was ready to meet Jesus and oh how I look forward to that great reunion day. For I do believe!
I love this song, I was holding my precious momma's hand when she went home to be with Jesus, it was a few weeks after her services before I could sing this at church in her memory, held my beautiful daughters hand when she went home to be with Jesus, what a great reunion we're going to have one day in Heaven, thank-you for this beautiful song. 💕

Heard this song just days before my own mom passed. I was with her when she passed and she knew the Lord so it was very peaceful for her. I was able to honor her by singing it at her funeral a few days later. Now every time I hear it I’m happy that she’s Home and I will see her one day.
My sweet little Mama went to Heaven on November 13, 2023. She Was so loved by so many people. She never worked much outside the home, and didn't belong to any organization other than her church. But she loved Jesus and she knew how to love peop!e and when she left this world last week so many people expressed love for her. I miss her so much. I miss her hapoy, sweet voice, her wisdom and understanding. I miss talking with her. She lived 89 years and told me several times that Jesus has taken care of her all of her life. And she is with him Him now and will never again experience pain, sorrow, mourning, crying or death again. I love you my sweet little Mama. I will see you again.
I preached my mother's funeral yesterday. Fine, dedicated Christian mother. Thank you Jimmy for this song, I to had it played in the middle of the service. I held her hand as she transitioned from this earthly world, and her soul carried to the throne of our Lord Jesus. Blessings
I had mentioned this beautiful song a few years ago to one of our deacons who occasionally sings during church. He’s a fine tenor. As he knew I’d soon be leaving town again for work he surprised me and the congregation with this song. I cried ❤
Very powerful! Can't stop playing it. A lot of singers lose their voices as they get older, not Jimmy Fortune though. He sounds as good as he did 20 some years ago.
Hallelujah. My Jesus Christ oh how I love HIM. He made himself so real those 4-5 days of being with my precious mama as she was dying. He is always right on time. Thank you for this beautiful song
That's cause he was young when he started with the Statler Bros, they retired but he wasn't old enough to retire, he still had to work, he's only 68 years old ❤❤ Pam
God bless you. Me and my wife and daughter had 2 precious little grils that were sister s . The mother could not take care of them because her husband left her and he was on drug s and had 17 criminal charges on him . He later on comes back and wants his grils back . At this time the are 3 and 5 years old the 5 yearold does not want to go back home . Whe we got them they were 16 months old and 2 years old . We get papers served on us to go to court . My daughter gos to court 5 times and the judge orders for them to go back home with the parents .we do not get to see the grils or get to talk to them . They told the judge that they would let us be a part of the grils lives . But they do not . This is not fare to us or the grils . I know the little grils are hurting over this . I do not see how the parents can do this to us and the grils . We had the grils for almost 3 years . They went back home with their parents on Oct 14 2020. This is so hard for us . But I do pray to God that things will change for us and the grils . I know God has a an for us and I know he does not like what these parents are doing to us . I pray for these parents that they will have a change of heart. And I do pray for the grils safety. We always took them to church on Sunday morning s . The parents are not church going people so now the grils do not get to go to church any more . And I know God was happy with us taking them to church . And me and my family still do go to church . I will be so glad when things get better for us and the grils we miss them so much . We miss the grils telling us good night and we love you . They call my daughter mama that's all they new was my daughter mama.i will be so glad when gods plan come s to us . I cod tell you so much more a bou.t al this but it would take way to long . Please can some one tell me what they think of this and what wod you do to handle it .
Our precious mother gained moved to Heaven this past Friday evening following a major stroke. I just listened to this song & cried so much thinking about my beautiful mother. This song fits her because she had a strong faith & strong belief in Jesus. She taught her children to believe in Jesus. I love you mom & I miss you.
This song, makes me the believer i'am. In Jesus Christ. I know I will see my Mom again. I leaned on this song, during her passing. This song moves my very soul. May God Bless Jimmy.
I know there is a place called Heaven. And it is my son's home now. One day it will be mine, and I will never ever have to let him go again.. I miss him with every breath I take.
My mom died recent. She died on 8/23/2017. The night before she died. I had a dream that God revealed to me that my mom was standing in front of these big tall gates. I watched those gates open up and 2 little girls waiting for her. I watched her walk in Heaven with her 2 granddaughters. One was my daughter and my sister's daughter. When she went in,she walked right in to the light and vanished with those babies. So amazing. I love God so much. Thank you , Jesus.Until we meet again mom. I love you.
+Ellen McDonald I know what you mean. I am almost 73 and would love to see my Son again, but not just right now because I would have to leave my Daughter..
+Ellen McDonald Ellen, I'm 70, 70 is the new 50!! At 70 you are wiser and smarter than you have ever been. Use those smarts to teach the young around you, God knows they need it these days. Jim
Oh I love this song the is a HEAVEN and there is a GOD and HE loves us. this second verse just rips my heart out. I was with my Mama in 02 when she went on with the Lord. I was not a Christian at that time and oh my Lord it was the hardest thing I have ever been thru in my life. But it brought me to the Lord I could not stand it alone!!! I SURRENDERED and came humbly before HIM and have not looked back since. I will see Mama again but I will bow at Jesus feet and Praise Him one day!!! Thanks for this song it is beautiful and so beautifully sung
Oh how I believe in heaven and a place called calvary. I believe and I know there is Jesus and He died for all my sins. I'm so thankful I belong to the King..
This was my sisters favorite song and we just played it at her funeral service on 5/19/21. I cry every time I hear it. My sister and I were the only ones with our mother and father when they went to heaven. Thank you Mr. Fortune for this song.
My uncle used to sing this song at our church. Unfortunately he passed away at the age of 61 on 10/26/15 due to a diabetes coma. He was the nicest man you could ever meet. This song reminds me of him so much.
I played this at my Mama's funeral 10/6/19. I haven't played it in over a year. But decided to tonight. I think I needed a good ol cleansing cry so that's what I did. Mama I miss u so very much. I hope I make it to heaven despite all the wrongs I've done in this world.
