Lost my oldest daughter 3 years ago today after a long battle with cancer and my husband almost 2 years ago next month 7-10-34. I know this is something that they would say to me! God Bless Tim Surrett and all the Kingsmen for all the beautiful music you have blessed us with for almost 70 years!
This song and it's message touched me deeply. I lost my Husband and we did everything together. I am so glad he isn't here at this time. He sent home and I'M happy for him even though I miss him!!!
I have been married for 39 years now I can’t even imagine living without my wife, I can’t do that, without her living ain’t worth living, you are a brave lady and I Admire you for that. I just hope i have your courage, if she goes first
I love this song it remind me of my mom one day we meet again if She could say to me it’s beautiful here she no more pain sorrow wish I was here one day we meet in heaven
That’s the most magnificent story in song I’ve ever heard from the Kingsmen Quartet. It’s quite a departure from their traditional style and sound. Well Done by all. I miss Big Jim.
We had this sung at my sisters funeral it has always been a comfort for me!! I just remember my mom always telling how good I sung this in the car because I had bought a cassette tape when the Kingsmen came to our church 🙏🏻😄... that should tell you how long ago it’s been!!! (Cassette tape)I have lost so many people but my daughter has been the hardest to deal with but I know the Lord is with me and my faith gets me through it!! I just listen to this song and think of my mom,dad,sister,aunts and uncles and especially my daughter and her baby that had died just walking on the shores of heaven!! I will be with them again someday!! Can’t wait to see them again!!💔🙏🏻
i wanted to declare this song to my mom aka my grandma she passed away last year so i just imagine her being all happy and no more crying no more tears no more pain and no more suffering. she was a christian woman who loved the lord. i just imagine she would send me a postcard from heaven letting me know that she happy and seeing her husband all the family members again
When my 8 yr old son was killed in an accident a man sang this song as though my son was singing this to my husband and me its was the most beautiful song id ever heard
Every time I hear this song now as it has been 18 years today February 28th I lost my mom of 06 she passed away a month before her birthday March 28th today is sweet but bitterness😣🥺💔😢😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😇😇
Miss you so much Maurice. This song reminds me you're you're walking with the Master in all the glory of heaven. Cant wait to see that smile again. Love you always son.😘💞💕
what a blessed song truly touches the heart. I think of my mom & dad gone on for many years. I'm turning 69 in a few days... Won't be long before I'll be writing those words to my Grand & Great grand children.
As I read all the comments, my heart goes out to each of you in your special loss. I pray in the spirit with tears for God to comfort your heart. Someday all the faithful will gather where they sing of in this song, what a wonderful day that will be!
We have lost so many of our family members in 2013 but I know Our Loss Is Heavens Gain...This song really touches my heart....I know they would say this to all of us......I Love and miss you all.......
Because this wasn't a typical Kingsmen fast or high song, Hamill really didn't like it, but it turned out to be one of their most popular songs ever! Kind of like 'He stopped loving her today', the Possum said it was too sad, no one would buy it! Boy, was he wrong!
This was sung at my family's 3 month old granddaughters funeral we do and I truly miss her but God had other plans but still she will be truly missed we love you precious baby girl 😭
I was deeply blessed to be able to sing this at a gathering of parents who have lost children. My nephew went to be with Jesus at 21 months and my sister asked me to sing this, it was hard but I was able to get through it. Bless The Lord!
I can just see them Walking on the shores of heaven Praising the lord And watching the tide roll in Friends that have gone on Oh,how I miss you so And somehow I know if you could That you'd let me know That you're doing fine And it doesn't hurt anymore Things couldn't be better That heaven is worth waiting for That you miss me to and til then You'll be praying for me And I know if you could Talk to me now Than here's what you'd say to me [Chorus:] Wish you were here It's such a beautiful place Wish you were here Nothing but clear sunny days Well it never rains And no one complains And we haven't seen a tear We're having a great time Wish you were here... I can just see them Walking on the shores together Their talking with Jesus Safe and secure in his love Friends and loved ones Walking in heavenly peace And I know if they could Talk to me now Then here's what they'd say to me [Chorus:] Wish you were here It's such a beautiful place Wish you were here Nothing but clear sunny days Well it never rains And no one complains And we haven't seen a tear We're having a great time Wish you were here... Well it never rains And no one complains And we haven't seen a tear Oh, we're having a great time And we wish you were here
Love this song. Makes me think of my Momma and uncle. I would love to see them again and I will one day. I wouldn’t call them back to this old world. I’m standing on dirt and they are standing on Streets of Gold! Praise God!
I love this song. My mentor went to glory a couple years ago, we talked and wrote letters very frequently so her passing was felt. She died of aggressive liver cancer, she wasnt a drinker. She was a faithful servant of the Lord. I can picture her sitting on the beach in heaven writing a letter to me.
i wish my real mom would send me a postcard from heaven and she told me that it’s beautiful my baby. i miss her so much i haven’t had a chance to meet her and she died in the hospital. We was involved in the Car Accident it was me (2 Months old) my grandma and my real mom were was going to take my granny to work then all the sudden a vehicle hit us and my granny had a neck injury and my i was thrown out from my car seat and i was pinned on the steering wheel with my arm broken in two places and my real mom she had blunt force trauma to her head she was rushed to the hospital and she kept calling out to my dad. i was crying in pain and they were searching for me then i heard a one of the EMTs said “We found him We found him” they pulled me out from the wreck and they flew me to hospital for my broken arm after i got there my real mom died in the hospital. it’s been almost 25 years since it happened i got lucky and i will give thanks to God for letting me live for 25 years. June 26th 1997 is my birthday and i hope my real mom is waiting for her baby to come home to hold me in her arms again. Save me a place for me momma for one day i will come home to be with you and my lord. RIP Elizabeth Ann Cucumber 1972-1997
This song has been such a blessing to me for years, I had it played at my Papaw's funeral but forgot about it for years, I just lost my brother to suicide almost two months ago but this song gives me hope that his mind is healed and he isn't hurting anymore, and he is with his family. We miss him so much and it hurts everyday but as a child of God I know I will see him again.
