    Five years ago today, 20 babies & 6 adult educators were massacred in the #SandyHook shooting. I was honored to sing at a special event last week that was organized by Matt & Jenny Hubbard, the parents of Catherine Violet Hubbard, one of the children killed in the shooting. I got to learn so much about Violet. It really was a beautiful tribute and I was deeply moved by their stories and viewpoints on "life after loss". I produced this video 5 years ago, but felt it would be appropriate to air it again on this day.
    Go here to donate to the Catherine Violet Hubbard Foundation and help make the Hubbards’ vision and their daughter’s dream of building an animal sanctuary become a reality.

    Lord have mercy on my brother, Lord have mercy on my sister
    While im praying down on my knees, Lord have mercy on me
    Lord have mercy on my brother, Lord have mercy on my sister
    While im praying down on my knees, Lord have mercy on me
    When we gather round a brother, who is lying on a bed of pain
    Where praying Lord wont you lift him up, and take his burden away
    Lord have mercy on my brother, Lord have mercy on my sister
    While im praying down on my knees, Lord have mercy on me
    For the children caring for their parents, for the mother worrying about her child
    Were praying Lord wont you lift them up, and give them peace for awhile
    Lord have mercy on the children
    Lord have mercy on the parents
    While i'm praying for all of these
    Lord have mercy on me
    When Im calling Lord, Lord, I wont be calling in vain
    When the waters of trouble ae rising up, Im calling your name
    Lord have mercy on my brother, Lord have mercy on my sister
    While im praying down on my knees, Lord have mercy on me

    Revisiting this song after the tragedy that just took place in Uvalde Texas … it’s so heartbreaking to know that there is such evil in this world that makes us have to sing songs to commemorate the dying of young children.. knowing that in almost 10 years, nothing has changed and we are in the exact same place again, mourning the passing of innocent souls that had their futures ripped from them at the hands of another human being. I hope their spirits rest peacefully 🕊

  • @browntroutfisherman
    @browntroutfisherman 11 лет назад +1

    I think that believers and non-believers alike can/should see this as a heart felt tribute to the young children lost in this tragic event and that we should not too hung up on the words of the song. Thanks for sharing.

    When words fail, music speaks.
    When tragedy strikes, music provides the comfort we need to heal.

    Well done Alex, Soulsaints and LDC.

    February 14 is suppose to be a day that brings love. But, for twenty-six families, this day became a day of loss and sorrow. It's horrible how people are so angry, frustrated, and upset with how the world treats them, that instead of seeking help and closure, they take that anger and turn it into unrestrained violence. And that unrestrained violence ends up hurting or killing the young and the innocent.
    Thank you, Mr. Alex Boye, for making this tribute in honor of the families who lost their loved ones on one of the most recent tragic and heartbreaking events in our history.

Several people then told me that there are those who go through RUclips disliking almost everything they see... just to be arbitrary (stir up trouble). Too bad they didn't take time to watch this first!
