And this is the way to have eternal life-by knowing you, the only true God, and Jesus Christ, the one you sent to earth! John 17:3
Matt West did a good job on this song. It gave tears to my eyes the video. I was happy that the neighbors helped give him his last Christmas . I loved that there was a lot of love in this video. My family give to Saint Jude's Hospital for Children with cancer. We also give to Shriners Children's Hospita 🎄❤😢🥳🎁🌟🎄
I remember listening to this song almost every morning going to school with my mom, sometimes even getting Burger King on the way. Much simpler, nicer times those were.
My 2 1/2 year old son was diagnosed December the 18th,1996 with nasopharyngeal carcinoma . He is now 19 years old. But this song and story hit home more that people realize.
P
Awww
I’m so very sorry! My brother committed suicide and it nearly took me to my own grave but my parents received a poem call “God’s Loan” anyone that loses a child deserves that poem!
❤❤❤
Our community has two very sick children. As we all reach out to their famiies, loving them and holding them up, this song reminds me, that this world has not forgotten the meaning of Christmas. This song serves to remind those who fortunate enough to be very blessed. We must always remember to cherish our families, friends, and neighbors, especially during these blessed times. Thank you for such a beautiful song.
The Heart of Christmas song sung by west matthew while his son was last stage of Leukaemia, really that seen washopeless and broken heart situation. But he has celebrated last Christmas to his son. 💔
I am strong enough to see a guy with another woman after he & I break up. I am here as your best friend, your stuck with me for life. I do not care if you get with your woman tomorrow, you will still have me as your best friend. I am looking forward to being able to hang out with my guys & their wives. I am blessed to have these guys & gals in my life as my friends. The best team a person could ask for. You guys are the best. I cannot allow people whom are so amazing to slip out of my life. When you guys are with your wives you have that life. I hope yall's wives are my friends as well. I like to have people in my life but give people their space as well. I am looking forward to hanging out & working with you guys & gals. Yall are amazing people.
Beautiful song Matthew West I lost both of my parents and my Daughter Cindy Marie Phillips. God bless you Lorri
loved ones in heart whenever you are whenever you go stay with you.
christmas 2020, whos here with me?
Just watched the movie!
I’m with you, brother 🙏❤️
@@briansjobeck7348 What movie is this from?
This is from the movie The Heart of Christmas. It’s a true story of St. Jude patient Dax Locke and his journey at St Jude. He had AML, which is a form of Leukemia.
The blond mother in this is Jeanne Neilson, the leading lady in the movie Faith Like Potaotes. I feel it's so appropriate that she is in this video because that movie, like this song, is about not missing the blessings in life that faith can bring.
This person is speaking God's truth, but you call them a complete jerk...? Truly, the scriptures are fulfilled.
I’m gonna make a wish this Christmas
I’m gonna say a little prayer
I’m gonna stop here for a moment
Before the moment disappears
The world’s in a hurry this December
City streets and shopping malls
I wish we could slow down and remember
The meaning of it all
Wherever you are, no matter how far
Come back to the heart, the heart of Christmas
Live while you can, cherish the moment
The ones that you love, make sure they know it
Don’t miss it, the heart of Christmas
Let’s make it feel the way it used to
Let’s find that wonder of a child
You can see the magic all around you
Come on, and open up your eyes
You can find it in the warm embrace of your family
Or calling up a long lost friend
You can even find it in the eyes of stranger
When you reach out a helping hand
Wherever you are, no matter how far
Come back to the heart, the heart of Christmas
Live while you can, cherish the moment
The ones that you love, make sure they know it
Don’t miss it, the heart of Christmas
In the shadow of a steeple
In a star that lights the way
You will find Him in a manger
The heart of Christmas has a name
I’m gonna make a wish this Christmas
I’m gonna say a little prayer
Wherever you are, no matter how far
Come back to the heart, the heart of Christmas
Live while you can and cherish the moment
The ones that you love, make sure they know it
Wherever you are, no matter how far
Come back to the heart, the heart of Christmas
Live while you can, cherish the moment
The ones that you love, make sure they know it
Don’t miss it, the heart of Christmas
Amen
I will NEVER tire of this song. God bless the Locke family.
Celebrating Advent Christmas eve and Christmas day this year 🙏 🎄 ✨ 🕯 ✨ 🕯 ✨ 🕯 ✨ 🕯 ✨ 💜
(No politician is gonna take Jesus Christ out of my life !) Merry Christmas 🎄
Beautiful Christmas songs Matthew West Glory to God Amen 🙏
I still love the old Christmas tradition song's. but this song best ever by Matthew west Because he's the best I Ever Listen too all the time.
i'm not a christian, but this brought tears to my eyes.
i hope everyone has a merry Christmas :)
I hope u become one before it is too late
Jesus loves you, sister. I'm not sure where you're at right now. It's been ten years since you posted this, but I wanted to let you know that. He loves you so much and He wants you to spend eternity with Him. Confess your sin to Him now and He will forgive you. Confess Him as Lord and you will be saved. Please make the choice before it is too late. I'll be praying for you, sister.
Here's to all the athiests, christians, jews, muslims, etc. Whatever you believe in, or whatever holiday you celebrate, live while you can and remember the true values in life.
Happy Holidays everyone:)
I still watch this video over and over and over again this time of year.
I just got inspired by this song to join the bone marrow registry - hoping to help a cancer patient someday. Thank you Matt!
The end of the movie is when i really teared up. I couldnt imagine having a child that is sick. But yet Dax kept a smile on his face and knew he was loved.
I posted the song one last christmas to facebook last year after going to my daughters christmas concert. Before the concert, her principal cane up and spoke to the crowd of parents that were there watching and quickly announced that the kids were not going to school for the next 2 weeks after the concert. The parents actually whined and complained and cursed that their kids are going to be home. I even heard a mom verbally abusing her daughter at 1 point. I honestly almost cried and yelled. My then 5 year old girl was born 3 months premature . We werent even sure if she would make it to her first christmas. But she is now 6 years old and doing well. I can understand that parenting is not easy, but these children were up on stage watching their parents as they complained like babies right in front of them. I was just glad that my daughter was alive to be in that show.
We are luckier here then in OZ Elizabeth Witz. Our summer holidays is 7 weeks over Christmas. A fabulous time to spend and share special moments with my kids. God Bless.
Thank you for sharing your story I can't go a year without watching this Movie!!!
That's amazing. I hate when people complain about being with their family (I think everyone is guilty of this, myself included). Life is very short and sometimes you don't get nearly as long with someone than you thought. I learned this with my grandpa about a week ago...
This movie has really inspired me to become a pediatric oncologist for leukemia when I’m out of high school and that’s 2 more years to go.
IT JUST BECAME CHRISTMAS 6 MINUTES AGO! God bless you all
i saw matthew on decmber 4 last nite he change my life my sister teacher lost here son and he post matthew on the mosion he say i dont wanna go throw the moinstion and matthew came to mcklaster yestday he cange my life
Whether christmas is on the 25th or not, God sees our hearts. If we sincerely celebrate the 25th Dec as the day Jesus was born, then trivial things such as dates are not important, our geniune love for God is.... Merry CHRISTmas!!!
And a Happy NEW Year!!!
Jack Eggebrecht hahaha thank you ^_^ Same to you
Amen! I get so sick and tired of so many spiritually proud people, who are wise in their own eyes (I say "people" as opposed to Christians, because I question whether some of them are even truly Christians) looking down their noses at Christians, such as myself, who celebrate Christmas on the traditional day, and ranting about it.
Amen
Christmas, which in most languages doesn't contain the word "christ" at all is based of a holiday completely unconnected to Jesus, who according to what records we have was born in June... The story is very touching, but is completely irrelevant to gods, it's rather about how people gathered around to support a child with cancer, it's about cherishing and loving the people around you.
i cried watchin this movie...it rli tOuched ma heart...n all tnx to Matthew he made the movie aw€sum and more powerful!..
Matthew west His surely has anointed YOU to have a voice in songs that honor Him and wisdom to write such amazing songs..May our great GOD continue to work thru YOU Gal.2:20.
Take care and pray for you and family..God bless you all the days of your LIFE!!!! : LYNNE liles..if you could get in touch with Celine Dion who is in terrible health condition and share Jesus christ with her..: by LYNNE liles
I also watched this movie this year and yes I did cry.
I agree let's welcome christmas and not forget to CHERISH EVERY MOMENT!
Also I would like to add that Christmas is A time for giving so if any of you can PLEASE GIVE A DONATION TO St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. I make sure to donate several times a year, even if I have to give something up to have the money to donate.
I lost my son one year ago this month on the 20th and we do miss the true meaning of Christmas .We need to open our eyes and realize we have to cherish what we have and live while we can and let the ones we love know it.You see my son was 19 when he had a serious car wreck and on Oct 16th of 2010 and he laid in NTICU for 66 days and then on the 17th of December he had surgery .Well his surgery didnt go well and he was brain dead.On the 20th I had to pull the plug.So cherish every moment
this is a fabulous song, my niece was diagnosed with brain cancer 3 years ago right before Thanksgiving, and ever since we have made sure that Christmas is about spending the time together versus the amount of toys they receive, thanks for doing this song.
The same. Today. Tomorrow. Always. Jesus. This song touches my heart through His.
This song came out a year after I lost my dad and a year before I had my last Christmas with my mom. She passed right after Christmas. Hard to believe that it's 10yrs now already. The heart of Christmas is not all the commercialized over spending or decorating to the extreme it's about being around the one's you love and spending time together thankful for each other and the blessings you have. My last Christmas with my mom was the best even though we both had the flu we both laid in a recliner and listened to Christmas music together (this was one of those songs), watched Christmas movies and I read to her from the bible in between naps. Cherish those moments even when sick that you're able to be together
this song touches my heart this Christmas because of my wife's health.God is with her daily.Believe in him for he is there for you.Christmas is the time for family.
My heart goes out to the Locke family. This story is so inspiring that I'm giving to St Jude'S TO HELP SAVE LIVES. Thank you for reminding me to cherish every moment. Tk
I love this song. I convinced my teacher of doing this song for my school Christmas Concert.
I saw this movie... and CRIED MY EYEBALLS OUT!
I love this movie!! Highly recommend on Hulu!!
Oh Matthew! You and your songs are such a great blessing to us. Thank you.
I'm really curious how someone can say "God bless" and yet literally 'X' out the Name of Christ from Christmas when Christ is the reason that we celebrate, it's about Him, it's for Him. Praise God!
My favorite Christmas movie. I cried my eyes out through every moment of this movie. Knowing that it is based on a true story about Dax Locke and his family. made me cry even more. Matthew West wrote and performed a few songs for this movie, this one is my favorite. My heart goes out to anyone who has ever lost a child. Cherish every moment we have with the ones we love.The Locke's family's journey through the toughest time of their life, is an inspiration to all.GMC will probably run it again.
Yes to everything you said..my husband and I have buried two children Mindy and micky John 11:25-27 gets us threw...god bless LYNNE liles
Anyone who pushes and rushes around on Black Friday for that deal should listen to this song and maybe spend time with their children stringing popcorn for their tree or watching a movie instead! What a beautiful song! Thank you!
Live while you can cherish the moment. Just Greatness every time this guy writes a song.
love the movie and the song . makes you think about what's important. family and friends and Jesus the reason for the season
It's time to remember the real reason for the season! The greatest things on this earth are the love and happiness we can share with one another. I saw this video and I felt like I needed to say this to many of you because I am horrible at keeping in touch with the ones that mean the most to me. Being away just two years I realize the importance of the close bonds that families and friends share and how being apart from those can be tough. I hope you all have a very blessed holiday season!
This song is so true. My dad left us when I was 16 back in 2016 and now my mom met someone and left me when I am a seinor in school just a month ago. I'm thankful I had a sister to take me in but this is all so hard. I always feel like if I wasn't good enough for my parents, why am I good enough for anyone? It hurts me knowing I am losing time with my parents. I'm going to college in 11 months and I am worried thinking I won't be good enough to make it in college if I not good enough for my own parents. I am thankful for wonderful teachers and a guidance counselor to help me.
You are good enough and you can do college thing. Don't hold it against yourself for their mistakes. You got this and merry Christmas
I do not know why, but I bought this song on ITunes. I start playing my Christmas music this year. I love Matthew West music and the story behind them. Anyway, I found this song on my playlist. I was kind of out of it last year. I don't have kids, but I have worked with kids for 30 years. I loved everyone of them and call them my own. I lost one, Libby Claire (lost the battle against cancer at age of 6). I never seen the movie nor this video. I was going to dedicate the song on my FB page in her memory, but the video is perfect. I going go search for the movie today. Before I leave, let's all say a prayer for all the children of the world (so much corruption) especially the ones battling cancer. P.S. I still do not know how this song got on my playlist.
This movie is a tear-jerker!
This movie made me cry and this song does tbe same thing.. I pray people find Gods love during hard times but i pray for those to cherish the moments 💜
I cry every time I watch this movie and I am not sure but for some reason I can on a personal level relate to almost every one of Matthew West’s songs
Whats the name of the movie?
What is the name of the movie
@@CindyK It's called The Heart of Christmas
I watch the movie Heart of Christmas.It was a true story.I cried watching it.It was beautiful & Matthew is a beautiful singer.Iloved it.If you watch the movie & you will want to tell everyone you love them especially your kids.
Such a beautiful song very sad film
I just watched the movie on Netflix not even 3 minutes into the movie I was already crying. A great movie one I will share with my family and friends. The song is awesome also!
This make me remember I used to do Christmas with my mom with my family every Christmas
"Cherish the moment, and the ones that you love, make sure they know it"
This almost made me cry, because my Grandpa died about a week ago and even though he lived a few blocks away from me, I didn't spend much time with him. Spend your life with those you love, because sometimes they go quicker than you ever would've imagined.
This song should be the song of 2020 for the holiday season!
15 people dislike this?? They don't have feelings.
Really beautiful song, I cried.
This is a beautiful song by Mathew west
let us remember this all year long
I Love Matthew West and the calling of God upon His life.
Zelman Samuel me too I love Christian music I love passion
God bless the Locke family. Prayers for the entire family hugs and merry Christmas. I love this song and the movie
The true story behind this song is truly "The Heart of Christmas" and this continues to live on. Google up recent story on Laney Brown of West Reading, Pennsylvania and you will find a very similar story to this happening currently.
I'm gonna make a wish this Christmas.
the best song ever i cant stop watching it awsome,fanominial,the best ever
MERRY CHRISTMAS TO YOU ALL!God Bless Us!PEACE IN THE WORLD!!!
MATTHEW WEST LYRICS
"The Heart Of Christmas"
I’m gonna make a wish this Christmas
I’m gonna say a little prayer
I’m gonna stop here for a moment
Before the moment disappears
The world’s in a hurry this December
City streets and shopping malls
I wish we could slow down and remember
The meaning of it all
Wherever you are, no matter how far
Come back to the heart, the heart of Christmas
Live while you can, cherish the moment
The ones that you love, make sure they know it
Don’t miss it, the heart of Christmas
Let’s make it feel the way it used to
Let’s find that wonder of a child
You can see the magic all around you
Come on, and open up your eyes
You can find it in the warm embrace of your family
Or calling up a long lost friend
You can even find it in the eyes of stranger
When you reach out a helping hand
Wherever you are, no matter how far
Come back to the heart, the heart of Christmas
Live while you can, cherish the moment
The ones that you love, make sure they know it
Don’t miss it, the heart of Christmas
In the shadow of a steeple
In a star that lights the way
You will find Him in a manger
The heart of Christmas has a name
I’m gonna make a wish this Christmas
I’m gonna say a little prayer
Wherever you are, no matter how far
Come back to the heart, the heart of Christmas
Live while you can and cherish the moment
The ones that you love, make sure they know it
Wherever you are, no matter how far
Come back to the heart, the heart of Christmas
Live while you can, cherish the moment
The ones that you love, make sure they know it
Don’t miss it, the heart of Christmas
this movie is very touching had me in tears.
When I was in fourth grade I learned this entire song in sign language and we had to play it during a winter concert, my fourth grade teacher told our entire classroom that she wouldn’t watch that song because it reminded her of her son that killed him self because of the bullies and looking back at this song I Hope she is OK because I moved a while ago and I haven’t seen her in over five years
This still is and always will be one of my favorite Christmas songs because of the message(s) it gives! :-) :-) :-)
I know right
Jesus loves you and Jesus is coming
This song is so touching, makes me want to just cry.
Thank You, Jesus! Happy Sweet 2016!
Live while you can, cherish the moment
The ones that you love, make sure they know it.
I'm going to focus on the true meaning and celebrating of the most wonderful time of the year.✔🎄🎶🎵⭐ Merry Christmas and stay safe everyone!
What an uplifting and amazing song! It's too often that people forget the true meaning of christimas. Its all about presents and who can spend the most. Thank you for reminder what christmas is really about. FAMILY!! "LIVE WHILE YOU CAN"!
Wish this comment had a love button. Too many people have lost the meaning and are just about greed. Thanks for this comment be a little honest . It gave me a little Christmas spirit because I really don't enjoy the holidays anymore
@@Titansfever q
What a beautful and inspiring song! We all need to go back to the true meaning of Christmas..
I watched this movie and at the end it showed pictures of Dax Locke. This song went perfectly with the pictures. Blessings to the person who wrote and the person who sings this song.
I love ❤️ Matthew West too like his song I listens to like Christmas 🎄
Prayers for y'all rember the season God bless
'Cause if one day you wake up and find that you're missing me
And your heart starts to wonder where on this earth I could be...
I'm not moving, I'm not moving.
That movie... I've never before had cried so much... And that it is based of real story makes it even more sad and somewhat restores faith in humanity.
Where ever you are, no matter how far. Come back to the heart. The heart of Christmas.
God bless you Dax and I'm going to decorate my house like Christmas on Halloween for you Dax!
Just now this song was playing here on my local radio station in Germany! To me this is such a big deal, I always listen to my Matthew West CDs in my car. I was totally shook when they said Matthew West, we don't play Christian songs on the radio here in Germany. Maybe someday I'll get to listen to more of his music on the radio ❤️
In the shadow of a steeple
In a star that lights the way
You will find Him in a manger
The heart of Christmas has a name
i love this song so much i listen to it all year and this video is a plus. i seen the movie so the song makes me tear up..
I heard this song three days ago and its been my best song this Christmas season. Yes it about the Locke Family, but I can also relate to Christ and my life. I love song this Matthew west. God bless you.
I'm in Love with this song Coming from Matthew west Because he's Handsomely Cute.

VRP14 Me
Mark & Lynda Podcast sent me here.
great music and sad
Charlie Brackett count me in
Make that 2017
CHERISH EVERY MOMENT! This song has to become a classic as the message it is giving to all of us living in this hectic 21st century is God, children, family, & friends are the things that count the most all the time. Anything else is secondary!!! If you have not seen the movie that this song was based upon which is a true story - you need to!!!
Just watched this movie.. bawling most of it.. what amazing messages were gained from this sweet little boys life!!!! Thank you for sharing!!!
Ok well yes I like it, hoping to be the best at Christmas .....
I just want to hug every member in that family
Sneak me outside of laterally Washington 😭
Heres to everybody, love ,peace and joy, to all.
This song was my Christmas party theme song for my school. When I was Primary 3, I almost friend while listening to it. Now I’m Primary 5 and I am touched by the quote at the end..... :’)
What a great reminder to be present and not let stress rule.
This album is basically my new classics for Christmas.
I hear this song every year on my local christian radio station every year and i gotta say i love it !:) i wanted to see the video . the story is so hartbreaking though.
Here we are in August 2017...found this song - and the album - last Christmas, and particularly loved this song. Am hoping to sing this at a local (5000+ people) Carols event in December - about to go to the auditions next week, so am here at work listening to it over and over...! Who needs it to be Christmas time to listen to great songs...
