I'm a big, tough guy. I've been in combat, I've been a bouncer and a bodyguard. I've been in situations that should've broken me. This songs breaks me every time I hear it.
I'm 53 yrs old and I have Parkienson Disease Throat Cancer and Lung Cancer and medical problems to many things, I was raised in a Church and I drifted away from it, but a few months ago I gave my heart and life back to the Good Lord and now I feel a sense of peace that I haven't had a really long time, and now I often think about my Mom fixn gravy n biscuits before Church on Sunday morning, so now that my life is coming to the end, I can close my eyes and humbley Thank Jesus for this amazing life and I know in my heart that I soon will be there, with Jesus and Momma, and for me if that what's in Heaven, well I'm not afraid to die, so I hope and pray if anyone out here needs to talk, just hit your knees close your eyes and humbley ask Jesus for a hand and I promise you he'll pick you up and walk with you, and you be afraid anymore!
This is the first time hearing this song. I just lost my fiancé July 14 2024 to throat cancer. I am so angry this song brought me to tears instantly as soon as I heard it. I miss the love of my life so very much.
The night Gma passed--we had three cars leaving the hospital. No one knew what radio station the other had on. That's the first time we all heard this song--we got home and all had the same experience. That's God!
I had a similar experience but it was after watching a movie at a movie theater the movie brought back some bad memories I almost ran out of the movie theater scared on edge the rest of the movie anf on the way home the song mended by Matthew west came on and I broke down sobbing thank you god
Wow, that's just a little miracle that happens every day. The longer I live, the more I notice them. Congratulations, that one was just for you and yours
I had lost my grandmother while I was out of town on a business trip..trying to get home in a timely fashion was a challenge and everything started to go wrong.. when I finally was able to get on a plane I was very distraught and pretty much an emotional mess.. this song came on while I was listening to headphones on the plane.. I was alone and this song was very comforting for me.. sad and made me cry but yet provided some comfort on that journey home.. especially when I heard "Don't cry a tear for me now baby.."
Keep your music coming I lost my baby girl the day before Mother's day my momma died March 29 the day before she turned 87 years old . I love your music please keep your music coming I love your music.
I’ve always loved this song. But I can relate to now more than ever. Well at least for the last 17 years for sure. My grandma, grandpa, momma are gone now. My momma was the most recent one in November 2022. I sure do miss them dearly. God bless all.
I lost one of my family friends a few weeks ago and my dad played this song and I thought of him and it made me cry and today I’m going to go to his celebration of life
My precious little momma passed april 11th this year at 69 yrs old and had been diagnosed for 3 wks before she passed of acute myeloid leukemia, she got her cure and she is with my daddy and my older sister and her 2 grand baby girls! I love you mom and I miss you so much. Rest in peace precious momma. Your baby loves you so much.
I lost my 2nd husband Navy, my mom my dad Airforce and my 32 yrold son Army. It's so painful but it eases up a little, but these songs brings it right to the surface. Dads heavenly birthday was two days ago catching up with mom, 28 day older. They would gave been 91. Miss all of you. 💜 ✝️🙏🏼🌟
OMG 11 years later and i've just heard this for the first time? How is that i wonder.. I used to listen to your music long long ago. This song just bust me up in tears... It may not have meant as much 11 years ago as it does today. I've lost so many loved ones and the one who is still alive (my momma) i can't see as she lives in England and i'm in Oregon. Shes 73 and i'm 53. I pray i can see her again.. Great song.
Never get tired of this song & video! Years ago when my young daughter bought the CD for my b.day ..I listened & cried thinking about my cousins , my mom & my favorite dog passing away....tonight I thought about it as I was feeling sad missing my grandbaby who spent the week end with us -in hopes his mommy could break him from nursing..well she caved and couldn't do it because he cried too much..these things are hard -OH but the beautiful dance we have that goes with it makes it so worth It!
I would love to go back to 1985 for one more look around. Sure do miss all my loved ones who are now gone. I know I will see them again though when my time comes. ✝️
I listen to this song every single day!!! When my dad passed away my mom told me this was one of his best songs and ever since she told me that this is the only song I listen too 😭😭🥺🥺
Such a soul stirring song , Makes me see all the important things I thought were important turns out not so much and time ran by me so fast but if heaven was a beautiful morning it'd be eternal!!
Life's ups and downs can sometimes take a toll on all of us just remember to share the good times with your loved ones and let them know how much they are loved before it's too late. We all must get along with each other life is too short.
I was at my friend Ron Jones'(Charley Pride)house one night charting one of my songs, drinking some Guinness and checking out music videos on RUclips when he sprung this one on me. He said, "watch this one." I was speechless while watching and I have to tell you, my eyes were flooding with tears and I glanced over at Ron and he was welling up too and he'd seen it countless times. He told me that it always got to him and I knew why now too. This is one of my absolute favorite songs, bar none. ;)
I lost my husband 6 months ago to a heart attack this song means so much to us because he always. said I'm not afraid to die only god knows when to take us i know that he is not in pain or suffering anymore and he will be my guardian angel today tomorrow and always
My son that passed was born in 85 how do you think it hits me it's hard but gotta learn to deal I guess that's what they say just go forward you can't change your past
December 31, 2004, my son, Brayden, passed away, he was 8 yrs old. He is an Angel! He had Down Syndrome and taught me and my family what it is to LOVE... We put this song in his memorial service and it was extremely moving. There was a pic of him and his Grandpa with a cherry pie with this song. It made everyone tear up. I thank Andy Griggs for this song and the Lord for giving Brayden to us regardless of his disabilities or medical issues. Down's babies are the MOST loving babies...
They sure are precious gifts from God Himself. ALL babies are of course, but Special Needs children & adults...They are gifts to us ALL & few people realize this fully. I love & miss my job taking care of them & the elderly...my bookends of life I call them. This virus took that away & haven't managed to get back where we were yet. . . Rest in blessed peace to your sweet Brayden. He'll be meeting you in Heaven first with huge smiles & True happiness forever this time. 💗🙏🏽💗
Keep up the good work, people need to here this kind of music. As Charlie Daniele’s said people gone and put there Bibles away we are living by the law of the jungle not the law of the land
Every time i hear this song it makes me cry, because it is my Grandpa's song,the song they played at his Funerual. Ive always said "if i can i would take him back, i was soo young to lose the greatest man who ever walked". I try so hard to cry for the good since i know he is no longer hurting,sick. If it wasnt for that "lung cancer" i wuld still have him today. GRANDPA BOB ORESKOVICH WE LOVE YOU AND YOU ARE ALWAYS MISSED, YOU ARE A PEACE OF MY HEART THAT WILL NEVER BE HEALED LOVE AUSTIN
I'm 37 years old, and just recently my grandpa!! The most amazing man I have ever known! This song makes me think of him. I miss him so much!!! I love you!!
Damn Andy!! One of the Greatest songs of all time!! It makes me go way back in time in my mind with special memories of family and friends that have gone on before me!! Thank you!!!
I lost my beautiful Mother suddenly in my Arms on January 4th 2024 at 3:00PM She was getting into her chair I was helping her and softly she said to me “Thank You” and suddenly she was dying in my Arms. My best friend, the BEST MAMA was taken by God to her Heavenly “Home” My Heart is shredded without you Mama. Until God calls me “Home” you rest easy, and fly high in the sky, and on the day He calls me “Home” will you ask Him to let you come and bring me “Home?” Forever Love And Respect Mama 🌹🌹🌹🌹❤️❤️❤️❤️🥲🥲🥲🥲 Your “Scottso”
@@mariamorgan9817 Thank You. The loss is a void, emptiness, a loneliness I can’t explain. It was so sudden, in my Arms at her apartment, no time to say I love you or goodbye. She was a wonderful Mother, a great Soul. I know she is in the Hands of God The Father now, and I will see her again when I get there, but the daily loneliness is crushing. Miss You Mama 💔💔💔👼👼👼🧚🏻🧚🏻🧚🏻🕊️🕊️🕊️❤️🩹❤️🩹❤️🩹💐💐💐🌹🌹🌹🕯️🕯️🕯️
My fiancée just passed away July 14,2024 to throat cancer after a year long fight. I am so lost without him by my side. I miss him so very much. This is the first time I heard this song and it brought me to tears instantly.
This is absolutely the MOST underrated country song......probably one of the greatest ever written......besides The Dance.....oh well maybe more people will discover it!
This song is simply amazing! One of the most underrated ever! "If Heaven was a train, it sure would be a fast one, that could take this weary traveler round the bend. If Heaven was a tear, it'd be my last one. And you'd be in my arms again." I lost my dad nearly 9 years ago and I've never been the same since. I celebrate it and want it played at my funeral.
My son's death date is 11.11 I miss him like an angel misses their wings. Something has been taken from me that I will never b able to replace. I never knew this kind of pain and emptiness existed . I played this at his funeral and appreciate Mr Griggs finding these words that I never could.
Are you kidding me with me right now now with your talent.? I've been looking all night for a song and an artist to pay tribute to my brother-in-law, His Service is today. He recently lost his life. I would love for your video of a song for a tribute to be shared, for an American Man and his family Whom my sister who also last year retired 20 Yrs. He currently is no longer with us and not all family members are able to be there, nor many others, his name is Adam Hultz wife(sister) alwaways to proud Tessa hultz
This song helps you be at peace with all of your loved ones that are gone. It gives you some help to know that they are ok and at peace and not in pain anymore.
I miss you so much Butch, thanks for everything you've done for me. Sure is different here without you. I think of you everyday single day and please keep watching over us. I love you so much butch. I'll see you....
+Brandon Hudson God called her home like he did to my mom two years ago. He knew the job he sent them here to do was finished and it was time to come home.
+Brandon Hudson so sorry to hear of you loss mate .. she is at peace now she no longer holds the pain inside . your pain will ease off in time but I am sure she will stay in your heart always .. condolences to you and your family
I left heaven back in Honeoye, NY 1985 and i found life liberty and pursuit of happiness in my God's universe. A song from a vagrant angel then gave me something I thought i had lost love and eternal happiness
Shelby Wolford passed a few months ago in 2024. We use to listen to this song a long time ago and I would karaoke it to her. One day I'll go see where momma went and it'll be like 1985 all over again. Be Blessed and Be encouraged, everyone who is going through tough times right now and in the future.
I lost my cousin that more like a sister to me last year in May. Very tragic not a day goes by that I don't miss her. Gives me comfort knowing she with Jesus and no longer in pain. RWL Ashley!! 😢😢
Your not alone. I’ve lost my younger sister, my Mom, Dad, Step-Dad, all my grandparents. Lost too many friends to count. I’m not supposed to be a survivor but for some reason, The Lord blessed me with them for a short time. Stage 4 throat cancer, stage 4 lung cancer and then the “widow maker” heart attack. God saw me thru it all. I’m 54 and have more than I need and way more than I deserve. Yea, I cry a lot. But it feels good sometimes to have a drink and recline back and go thru my favorite music.
@@GeniusLivesMatter God has definitely seen you through some very difficult times! I've had chronic debilitating migraines for 45 years now, while that comes no where near to what you've had to endure I understand the blessings. You're definitely right about a good cry, every once in awhile it's needed along with listening to good music especially songs like this. God bless 🙏
@@GeniusLivesMatter bless you buddy. Same here (almost) LAD "Widow Maker," Malignant skin cancer, cured 15 years ago. Everyone's gone except me. I'm alone, but not lonely. But I still get very sad, missing them all. Maybe one day.....
Me too sweetie. Me too. It's okay. It cleanses the soul. Let it fly and put your feet on the floor in the morning, knowing you're here for a reason. Go get 'em on behalf of those you've loved and lost.
If I could go back in time I would, 2002 lost my papaw, 2010 lost my brother Matt, 2013 my brother Johnnie, 2021 my sister Christian, Jan 20th 2024 my mother, Feb 15 2024 my cousin Kat, March 24 2024 my father. If I could go back in time for a few more with them I would, I would have spent more time I would have made sure they knew how much I loved them, I would have done more because dad, mom, Johnnie and Christian I could have done more to help and if I would have been home my father would still be here I could have gotten him out of that fire and he would still be here. He was always there and I let him down. God I miss them and I'm sorry dad.
Mason would be so proud of you, Andy. I only knew him for a short time in the late 80s and early 90s- not long before he passed, actually - but he was an amazing guy. I saw a note on facebook that you sang this at Glen Goudeau's funeral, so I watched the video. It was such a shock to see the video of you and Mason at the end of the video. Seeing his face brought back memories. May the Father continually bless and keep your family. Thank you for sharing this with the rest of us.
@mothersdaughter61 I am so sorry for your loss, God Bless you and your family look we all are gonna be at a big table with everyone we love and miss and we all will eat our hearts out happy to see them. RIP God Speed
MY TIME HERE IS SHORT,BUT THIS SONG GIVES ME THE COURAGE I'LL NEED TO SAY GOODBYE TO ALL I'VE LOVED,EVEN THOSE WHO COULDN'T LOVE ME.AND THE STRENGTH TO BELIEVE I'LL SEE YOU ALL AGAIN ONE DAY.JUST KNOW THAT I'LL ALWAYS BE WITH YOU IN SPIRIT-AND WATCHING OVER YOU..-AND TO MY BEAUTIFUL WIFE CRYSTAL; YOU WERE THE ONLY BRIGHT SPOT IN A LONELY LOVELESS LIFE. THANK YOU FOR LOVING ME !
Andy Griggs/Heaven! This song may remind some people of loss, it taught me with every note and lyric, to live and that it is all right. There is always something waiting at the end of this long day, and all of the things we share are indeed the greatest, LIFE we live it, LOVE it, embrace every second as if it might be the last. That there is something greater waiting at the end of this rainbow
I lost my mother to cancer 7 years ago today. She listened to this song everyday as me and my two sisters sat by her bed just waiting. She was 34. This is the first time Ive listened to the whole song since her passing. Needless to say, I kinda lost it. I know she is in a better place but I wish for one more day I could be with her.
My son just passed away the pain and emptiness is something I can't describe. We played this at his funeral. My son was an addict and he od at our home in the floor with blood coming from his nose. I tried so very hard to pull him out of his addiction and I didn't. I miss my son so much and wish I could hug him one last time and tell him how much I love him
Heard this song the other day and it broke me. I was 15 when I lost my mom, I’m turning 30 this upcoming Friday (the 15th) I’ve lived half my life without her. I will see her one day again but I miss her so much. 😭
CMT should be kicked in there country ass for not promoting the living daylights outta Andy Griggs wow,. I just love a song that makes me fall to pieces...............I love this song what emotion it draws out go ahead see if you can listen without a tear! God Bless you Mr Griggs
I WAS IN THE HOSPITAL BACK IN 2005, & WE THOUGHT I WAS GONNA DIE, I WAS IN ICU....& J JUST REMEMBER SAYIN TO MYSELF, PLEASE, PLEASE GOD, JUST TAKE ME NOW!!!!! WHEN I FINALLY CAME OUT OF ICU.....I FELT A HAND ON MY HAND.....& WHEN I WOKE UP NO ONE WAS IN THE ROOM, & I STILL FELT THE HAND ON MINE. THEN, THEY HAD THE RADIO ON THAT WAS IN THE SIDE OF THE BED BY MY HEAD, & THIS IS THE SONG THAT CAME ON. AND WHEN IT CAME ON....THE FEELING OF SOMEONE TOUCHIN MY HAND WENT AWAY!!!! IT WAS AN AMAZING FEELING!!!!
I lost my father on February 14th of 1999 of heart failure I never got to see him and never got to tell him that I love him and now he's in heaven with God watching over my twin sister and I he was rock he tought me how to stay strong and take care of my mother. I love you dad miss you more and more every day
This song reminds me of my brother who passed away in a car accident 7 years ago. However, I have lost my mother, father, grandpa's and my uncle also. It makes me want to pack up and go with them to heaven. The details in the song make heaven so tangible. One day we will all meet again. I love you guys!
My oldest brother passed away last year from cancer. His favorite pie when we were little was cherry... this song makes me cry... but it's beautiful and poignant.
This song makes me tear up every time I hear it.. so true and such a beautiful story of life that we all seem to take for granted .. takes me back to my youth and all the special people that have passed ..wonderful memories I will always cherish !
If Heaven was a pie it would be cherry 🍒! Now, that is overwhelmingly beautiful and makes the perspective on life a little more sweeter. This is an exceptionally pretty song. Two thumbs up from Kingsport, Tennessee!
Absolute Beauty, I can relate all too well.. A heartache that I’ll carry with me rest of my life.. Even now it still gets me Every... Single... Time....
I'm a big, tough guy. I've been in combat, I've been a bouncer and a bodyguard. I've been in situations that should've broken me. This songs breaks me every time I hear it.
I'm a bigger guy than you, Clayton. 4000 lbs. Wanna fight? :0)
I haven't been in combat though.
😥
I'm with you Brother. It gets you right in the feels.
Lived on the FOB probably.

Hello
I listen to this song every single day!!! When my dad passed away my mom told me this was one of his best songs and ever since she told me that this is the only song I listen too 😭😭🥺🥺
Another great lyric by Gretchen Peters. Andy did a great job!
Hello how are you
Such a soul stirring song , Makes me see all the important things I thought were important turns out not so much and time ran by me so fast but if heaven was a beautiful morning it'd be eternal!!
Life's ups and downs can sometimes take a toll on all of us just remember to share the good times with your loved ones and let them know how much they are loved before it's too late. We all must get along with each other life is too short.
One of the greatest songs ever written. Never listen to it without crying.
I grew up with Andy and so many of these things take me back to Louisiana
I was at my friend Ron Jones'(Charley Pride)house one night charting one of my songs, drinking some Guinness and checking out music videos on RUclips when he sprung this one on me. He said, "watch this one." I was speechless while watching and I have to tell you, my eyes were flooding with tears and I glanced over at Ron and he was welling up too and he'd seen it countless times. He told me that it always got to him and I knew why now too. This is one of my absolute favorite songs, bar none. ;)
Heard for the first time.. love it . Lost my dad 9 years ago ❤️
I lost my husband 6 months ago to a heart attack this song means so much to us because he always. said I'm not afraid to die only god knows when to take us i know that he is not in pain or suffering anymore and he will be my guardian angel today tomorrow and always
Hello Michael how are you
“....and everyone I loved was still alive.” Gets me every single time.
This song fits me,so good!!! And lots of people.♥️♥️♥️
Same here
This got me also. Everytime burrows my brother in law yesterday and this was the song for his service s
Yes it does.
Me too. Straight through the feels.
Andy I'm from West Monroe myself and this song hits home with me hard losing my mom and some family. Everyone was alive in 85. Love this one.
My son that passed was born in 85 how do you think it hits me it's hard but gotta learn to deal I guess that's what they say just go forward you can't change your past
December 31, 2004, my son, Brayden, passed away, he was 8 yrs old. He is an Angel! He had Down Syndrome and taught me and my family what it is to LOVE... We put this song in his memorial service and it was extremely moving. There was a pic of him and his Grandpa with a cherry pie with this song. It made everyone tear up. I thank Andy Griggs for this song and the Lord for giving Brayden to us regardless of his disabilities or medical issues. Down's babies are the MOST loving babies...
They sure are precious gifts from God Himself. ALL babies are of course, but Special Needs children & adults...They are gifts to us ALL & few people realize this fully. I love & miss my job taking care of them & the elderly...my bookends of life I call them. This virus took that away & haven't managed to get back where we were yet. . .
Rest in blessed peace to your sweet Brayden.
He'll be meeting you in Heaven first with huge smiles & True happiness forever this time.

My condolences for your loss. I cannot imagine the pain you feel. My prayers are with you. 🙏

I lost my beautiful Mother suddenly in my Arms on January 4th 2024 at 3:00PM She was getting into her chair I was helping her and softly she said to me “Thank You” and suddenly she was dying in my Arms. My best friend, the BEST MAMA was taken by God to her Heavenly “Home” My Heart is shredded without you Mama. Until God calls me “Home” you rest easy, and fly high in the sky, and on the day He calls me “Home” will you ask Him to let you come and bring me “Home?” Forever Love And Respect Mama 🌹🌹🌹🌹❤️❤️❤️❤️🥲🥲🥲🥲 Your “Scottso”
I'm so sorry for your loss. I can't imagine what you're going through. I'm praying for you. 💚 💚
@@mariamorgan9817 Thank You. The loss is a void, emptiness, a loneliness I can’t explain. It was so sudden, in my Arms at her apartment, no time to say I love you or goodbye. She was a wonderful Mother, a great Soul. I know she is in the Hands of God The Father now, and I will see her again when I get there, but the daily loneliness is crushing. Miss You Mama 💔💔💔👼👼👼🧚🏻🧚🏻🧚🏻🕊️🕊️🕊️❤️🩹❤️🩹❤️🩹💐💐💐🌹🌹🌹🕯️🕯️🕯️
I know that gravel road! And the towns not dying anymore, neither are the people, they are great! Come visit some time!
Beautiful ! So blessed such a fantastic voice !
Hi
My fiancée just passed away July 14,2024 to throat cancer after a year long fight. I am so lost without him by my side. I miss him so very much. This is the first time I heard this song and it brought me to tears instantly.
I'm so very sorry for your loss. I'm praying for you. 💚 💚
Wonderful song that evokes lots of feelings and memories, thank you!
Hi
This song gets into my soul.
This is absolutely the MOST underrated country song......probably one of the greatest ever written......besides The Dance.....oh well maybe more people will discover it!
I just discovered it today
@@mackdaddy1979 Well, better late than never! 👍😊 It's been a favorite of mine since it was released!
Yes it surely is.
I like these words
Just discovered it
And sometimes the ones you love pass away and you don't tell them how much you loved them
This song is simply amazing! One of the most underrated ever! "If Heaven was a train, it sure would be a fast one, that could take this weary traveler round the bend. If Heaven was a tear, it'd be my last one. And you'd be in my arms again." I lost my dad nearly 9 years ago and I've never been the same since. I celebrate it and want it played at my funeral.
This song hits hard, beautiful. It never fails to bring the tears.
My son's death date is 11.11
I miss him like an angel misses their wings. Something has been taken from me that I will never b able to replace. I never knew this kind of pain and emptiness existed . I played this at his funeral and appreciate Mr Griggs finding these words that I never could.
Are you kidding me with me right now now with your talent.? I've been looking all night for a song and an artist to pay tribute to my brother-in-law, His Service is today. He recently lost his life. I would love for your video of a song for a tribute to be shared, for an American Man and his family Whom my sister who also last year retired 20 Yrs. He currently is no longer with us and not all family members are able to be there, nor many others, his name is Adam Hultz wife(sister) alwaways to proud Tessa hultz
This song helps you be at peace with all of your loved ones that are gone. It gives you some help to know that they are ok and at peace and not in pain anymore.
This song makes me cry!
Yeah
So very true ❤❤❤❤❤
AMEN❤🙏🏻🦋😇🎉
I miss you so much Butch, thanks for everything you've done for me. Sure is different here without you. I think of you everyday single day and please keep watching over us. I love you so much butch. I'll see you....
My wife went home to be with the Lord yesterday morning! She finally got her cure for cancer! I love you and miss you baby!
+Brandon Hudson Godspeed Bro.
+Brandon Hudson God called her home like he did to my mom two years ago. He knew the job he sent them here to do was finished and it was time to come home.
+Brandon Hudson so sorry to hear of you loss mate .. she is at peace now she no longer holds the pain inside . your pain will ease off in time but I am sure she will stay in your heart always .. condolences to you and your family
sorry for your loss, God bless
+Shannon Huxtable r.i.p sorry about your love one
I left heaven back in Honeoye, NY 1985 and i found life liberty and pursuit of happiness in my God's universe. A song from a vagrant angel then gave me something I thought i had lost love and eternal happiness
Shelby Wolford passed a few months ago in 2024. We use to listen to this song a long time ago and I would karaoke it to her. One day I'll go see where momma went and it'll be like 1985 all over again.
Be Blessed and Be encouraged, everyone who is going through tough times right now and in the future.
I lost my cousin that more like a sister to me last year in May. Very tragic not a day goes by that I don't miss her. Gives me comfort knowing she with Jesus and no longer in pain. RWL Ashley!! 😢😢
I teared up when this song came out, it's 2020. My Mom, Dad, Grandparent's and now my Uncle are gone. Now I flat out cry 😢
Your not alone. I’ve lost my younger sister, my Mom, Dad, Step-Dad, all my grandparents. Lost too many friends to count. I’m not supposed to be a survivor but for some reason, The Lord blessed me with them for a short time. Stage 4 throat cancer, stage 4 lung cancer and then the “widow maker” heart attack. God saw me thru it all. I’m 54 and have more than I need and way more than I deserve.
Yea, I cry a lot. But it feels good sometimes to have a drink and recline back and go thru my favorite music.
@@GeniusLivesMatter God has definitely seen you through some very difficult times! I've had chronic debilitating migraines for 45 years now, while that comes no where near to what you've had to endure I understand the blessings. You're definitely right about a good cry, every once in awhile it's needed along with listening to good music especially songs like this.
God bless 🙏
@@GeniusLivesMatter bless you buddy. Same here (almost) LAD "Widow Maker," Malignant skin cancer, cured 15 years ago. Everyone's gone except me. I'm alone, but not lonely. But I still get very sad, missing them all. Maybe one day.....
Me too sweetie. Me too. It's okay. It cleanses the soul. Let it fly and put your feet on the floor in the morning, knowing you're here for a reason. Go get 'em on behalf of those you've loved and lost.
@@orbs1062 ❤❤❤
A good song is a gift for all involved. And a good song and a good voice is heaven!
Eleven years ago today, I buried my beloved wife. She was sweet like cherry pie, when she was still alive...
💔
💔
If I could go back in time I would, 2002 lost my papaw, 2010 lost my brother Matt, 2013 my brother Johnnie, 2021 my sister Christian, Jan 20th 2024 my mother, Feb 15 2024 my cousin Kat, March 24 2024 my father. If I could go back in time for a few more with them I would, I would have spent more time I would have made sure they knew how much I loved them, I would have done more because dad, mom, Johnnie and Christian I could have done more to help and if I would have been home my father would still be here I could have gotten him out of that fire and he would still be here. He was always there and I let him down. God I miss them and I'm sorry dad.
Mason would be so proud of you, Andy. I only knew him for a short time in the late 80s and early 90s- not long before he passed, actually - but he was an amazing guy. I saw a note on facebook that you sang this at Glen Goudeau's funeral, so I watched the video. It was such a shock to see the video of you and Mason at the end of the video. Seeing his face brought back memories. May the Father continually bless and keep your family. Thank you for sharing this with the rest of us.
Hello Tracy how are you
@mothersdaughter61 I am so sorry for your loss, God Bless you and your family look we all are gonna be at a big table with everyone we love and miss and we all will eat our hearts out happy to see them. RIP God Speed
Whoever dislikes this song sure doesnt know what a damn good fucking song sounds like
I wish I could phone my daddy, but I can not, he is in heaven, but I can talk to God😢🙏🏻🙌☀️✝️🇿🇦
I'm going to go through a very difficult time and if I don't make it please remember this song in honor of all who have gone home !
if i could go back to 1985 i would. just to have all my loved ones still here. This song reminds me of my great grandma who died in 1987.
MY TIME HERE IS SHORT,BUT THIS SONG GIVES ME THE COURAGE I'LL NEED TO SAY GOODBYE TO ALL I'VE LOVED,EVEN THOSE WHO COULDN'T LOVE ME.AND THE STRENGTH TO BELIEVE I'LL SEE YOU ALL AGAIN ONE DAY.JUST KNOW THAT I'LL ALWAYS BE WITH YOU IN SPIRIT-AND WATCHING OVER YOU..-AND TO MY BEAUTIFUL WIFE CRYSTAL; YOU WERE THE ONLY BRIGHT SPOT IN A LONELY LOVELESS LIFE. THANK YOU FOR LOVING ME !
REX GRAHAM love

I was introduced to this song over 14years ago and it’s been one of my all time favourite ever. X
This song just pulls at my heart strings. That's how I like it. I can't wait to be reunited with my loved ones in heaven.
Andy Griggs/Heaven! This song may remind some people of loss, it taught me with every note and lyric, to live and that it is all right. There is always something waiting at the end of this long day, and all of the things we share are indeed the greatest, LIFE we live it, LOVE it, embrace every second as if it might be the last. That there is something greater waiting at the end of this rainbow
I lost my mother to cancer 7 years ago today. She listened to this song everyday as me and my two sisters sat by her bed just waiting. She was 34. This is the first time Ive listened to the whole song since her passing. Needless to say, I kinda lost it. I know she is in a better place but I wish for one more day I could be with her.
Hi
I am so sorry. You all will be together again one day. Believe.
In honor of my lost brothers Glenn Griggs and John Griggs. May they rest in peace. Andy Griggs is one of our relatives. Signed, Randy Griggs
My son just passed away the pain and emptiness is something I can't describe. We played this at his funeral. My son was an addict and he od at our home in the floor with blood coming from his nose. I tried so very hard to pull him out of his addiction and I didn't. I miss my son so much and wish I could hug him one last time and tell him how much I love him
My brother overdosed also.Such a point less death,he wouldn't stop his drugs.Bless you and your family.
I also lost a son at 28 yrs old from OD. Your son knew how much you loved him.
if heaven were a tear it would be my last one, but its not
Love it
