My late boyfriend introduced me to this song in 2021. He died 6 months later from alcoholic cirrhosis. Fly High Gregory Scott Lee. I'll always miss you.
I lost my dad on 3/5/22 he taught me how to do everything from fix Cars to build houses. The only thing he didn't teach me was how to live in a world without him.
Still listening in 2024.... missing my dad who passes in 09. Love you dad, I'll see you one of these days and get to surprise you that I actually made it to heaven.
This song describes my stepdad, Frank . He passed away on the same year the Twin Towers were struck . But he was saved on his deathbed 1 week before he died . Most would probably say, it doesn't count, because he didn't spend his life living for the Lord . But if they had seen all the folks he had helped over the years and all the work he did, helping my mom support kids that weren't his own, they would know better . Even my pastor said he had no idea my stepdad hadn't been saved . He helped my pastor get the supplies he needed to build the new church when others turned him down . When we held his funeral, it was PACKED even outside the door with people who he had helped over the years . And to think, when my mom first met him he was straight out of prison !
I lost my Dad 2 yrs and was just introduced to your song, boy it it break me😢. God bless and Thank you for such a Beautiful song!! Miss you Dad so much
I know that song is specifically talking about A MAN, But Believe Me ,AS a Woman ,And The Daughter of a Southern Baptist Minister, with my Dad's brother, still pastor in a church at the age of 84 Dad is 88,I have Always had One Wing In The Fire. Alot of Regrets ,and Some I do Not Regret.
My children are all grown up now and my son has blessed us with a most precious grandson I have been married for 25 years and I have had one wing in the fire the whole time I pray everyday that I can fly away from that fire!!!!
This song was dedicated to me by my children. I was a drinking person and ended up losing my license and spent months in jail for drinking. I always cry whenever I listen to this song but it was my fault. I have been sober for I don't know how long. They believed in me and I failed them. I hope that they will forgive me and give me a second chance. Thanks Trent for an great song.
Failing them would be if u kept drinking. Recognizing you had a prob n stopping is what counts. I dont know when u posted this but im sure they will forgive you if they havent already. Keep up the good work
This song reminds me of my Daddy. He was gone 4 years yesterday. He too was a drinking man. A half survivor of Vietnam. He carried Nam with him until the day he died. He quit drinking when I was 29. He was an AMAZING Daddy & I am sure your kids would say the same of you too
My dad didn't dry out until my late teens. I spent a year in a foster home because of his drinking. Our family went through eviction, bankruptcy, and homelessness because of dad's drinking and jail time. He came from a good Lutheran home, and i know he disappointed his parents. When he was sober, he was a good dad. it's been nearly 30 years since he stopped drinking. He's an AMAZING grandfather now. He's become a great husband to my mom, and has spent many years trying to play catch up and rebuild himself, his wealth, and life, to be the man he was meant to be. I am incredibly proud of him. If your children dedicated that song to you, know that you are forgiven. I'm proud of you too frnkroper316.
@@lgd1974 I concur with this. I am proud of frnkroper316, too, for becoming sober. When a child dedicates this song to their father, it means that they recognize that he had problems in his life, but that he was a good father and they want what's best for him. I know because I dedicated it to my own for that very reason.
Tim this song still makes me cry 12 years later. My dad was taken at 51 suddenly and though we weren’t as close as I wished we were, he was and always will be my Dad and miss home every second of the day. I sometimes hope that he played enough gospel bass guitar in my childhood days to get him into Heaven even when he lost his way as I became an adult. I pray God heard him a few times and gave him a pass. 😢
My dad just died last week and I've been searching for this song for 2 days straight because i couldnt remember the name of the song. I seriously cried when i found it! At 19,it sucks to lose your dad, but this song will help me through everything!
Its been 9 years since you lost your dad. Hope you found peace and comfort. I lost my dad in 1999. I was just 14. It's a hard road without our heros. Hope life has treated you kind. ❤
@@trenttomlinson370 Since you came out and I heard of you, man. You're great and this song will NEVER EVER get old. I'm going to be hitting the keys soon and singing this. My pops isn't well and he's having a lot of issues that are piling up on his 75 year old body.
I cried when I heard this song as a child. I was raised by my grandparents and my grandmother has passed years ago and my grandfather I call him pops is gonna be 83 this February. I'm just glad he has gotten to see his great grandchildren my twin boys. My grand parents had drinking problems and it was rough but they taught me a lot and it there is love, wisdom and patience
Trent, this song describes my father right down to the last wire, with this song, you touch so many hearts and I appreciate it and love it. Number one in my book.
One song that will make a grown man cry and think really hard about his.life and the choies he has and will have to make. Great song Trent.Thank You !!!
@@melissabeddingfield9546 for sure it is I'm only 25 with 3 young children I haven't been the perfect parent but i do try my best for all 3 of my babies my oldest "isnt mine" by blood but is my only daughter and knows no other dad then me i fought tooth and nail for her dad to be apart of her life since i started dating my wife at her being 6 months of age. One time and he assaulted my wife now unfortunately that fight is no more as he commuted suicide in September and now later in life I'll be faced to explain that to my baby girl
Daddy's been a back-row Baptist With his share of front-row sin His Saturday night still on his breath Every Sunday when he'd walk in He's never led the Benediction He's never sang in the choir But he's an angel with no halo And one wing in the fire Mama lives by the Bible The Bible lives by the bed And she's lied alone so many nights With scriptures in her head Prayin', Good Lord, just be with him I know his faith is tired But he's an angel with no halo And one wing in the fire And I know he lives a little left of livin' right And he's come close to goin' way too far a few times But I'd trade a thousand prayers if just one prayer would come true Lord, please believe in him, like I believe in you Daddy's always been there for me From T-Ball to touchdowns Fixed my car and fixed my heart When they've been broken down I know he calls for more forgiveness Than most folks do require But he's an angel with no halo And one wing in the fire And I know he lives a little left of livin' right And he's come close to goin' way too far a few times But I'd trade a thousand prayers if just one prayer would come true Lord, please believe in him, like I believe in you Well, I just can't imagine What Heaven might be like If me and mama make it Without daddy by our side Lord, could you please remember When it's time to call us higher That he's an angel with no halo And one wing in the fire
My Dad's a lazy piece of shit who just watched TV and played solitaire on the PC, but never hesitated to turn either off to hear about my shit ass day at work...That's why I'm working on slowly coming up with a back tattoo for both him and my Mom for supporting my brother and I through this shitty ass economy. We're both stuck in a rut, my brother is much more frugal than me so it hasn't hit him as hard...but me I dream of big houses and flashy cars in the drive ;)
@@derek0173 my pop is in his 70's...and I still dread the day i go out on break for some nicotine..take my phone off airplane mode and get the text i won't forget. I tell my Mom if anything bad goes down call the store, fuck my job. I'm gone in a flash.
My mom passed away and of course my dad had a hard time dealing with them but eventually he found someone that I believe my mom sent from heaven because she has helped my dad to slowly restore his faith in God. And as for me on May 16th of this year I got baptized and I gave my life to the Lord and since then I found a piece and happiness that I hadn't felt in a long time.
Amen my sister. Just remember to praise God in the valley just as you would on the mountain top. And if you are anywhere close to South Carolina, I must send out an invitation to come to Johnsonville Church of God in Johnsonville South Carolina or Gateway Ministries in Hemingway South Carolina.
This song really makes me think about all the times that I've let my father down or hurt him. Or the times that I could have been more patient. Maybe a little more giving, and alot less selfish. But most importantly I think about how much I truly appreciate everything he has sacrificed for the sake of our family. Every time I hear this song, it just makes me want to be a better man so that someday, I may make him proud. Thanks for everything Dad.
I know this song must have been written with my uncle in mind. He lived life by his own rules. Not a damn thing wrong with that. I know he's up in heaven yet I can feel him here with me when I need him the most. RIP Uncle Sed..Love always
for those of you that still have a father cherish every moment that you have with him love him care for him be there when he needs you cherish every moment you have of your dad everyday
I agree with you Kriptonite98!!! I lost my mom 2 years ago, was her caregiver 10 years,dad lives 12 hours away, he lost his 2nd wife 4 years ago.I have no brothers or sisters but I email my dad almost everyday and send pictures and I haven't seen him in 45 years, and that's hard to deal with. I miss my dad and love him with all my heart!!! This is a great song too by Trent Tomlinson and I listen to it and sing it all the time.
Intercessory prayer for the dead has been considered mostly a Catholic practice in recent centuries. But early Protestant evangelists like John and Charles Wesley believed in it. (Methodist tradition). Luther said to pray for the salvation of the dead as much as it was possible in God's plan of redemption. (Lutheran traditon). And a number of Anglicans also practiced intercession for the dead. Here we have a song picturing a Baptist practicing intercession for his deceased father recently in history. Intercessory prayer is actually a kind of mediation with one believer acting as a "go between" between God and another human. This song is a touching example of this kind of Christian prayer. St Paul not only "allows" us to make intercessions for others, he "urges" us to do it.
Lost my dad almost 3 years ago and I still can't listen to this song without crying. It reminds me so much of him that I can't stop crying, it still hurts that he's not here.
My dads been gone almost 18 months and I feel the same. He struggled with addiction a good portion of my life and we fought a lot but I was a daddys girl to the end. He was indeed "an angel with no halo, and one wing in the fire". And I miss him every day.
Lost and broken ? Me to the tee married and all alone, teenage boys who have no respect . I work all the time and can't get ahead . . My life is in shambles but this song makes it some what easier
If you are still on this side of the dirt it is never too late to ask god for forgiveness he loves and adores us and wants us to b close to him. I love God he has worked miracles in my life ever since I was reborn AMEN!!
I'm just now listening to this song for the 1st time. I"m trying to pull myself out of a "deep muddy ditch". I took a couple wrong turns, then veered of my path & hit bottom @ 100mph. Put myself in the mud- was over my head for a while. The weight of the struggle- the FIGHT to GET & STAY clean was unbearable @ times. Got to the point where I could only prey "for my children & their mother to have a good life, to be safe, PLEZ LORD TELL THEM HOW MUCH I LUV Them, HOW SORRY I AM For letting them down, don't make same mistakes I did & may ur will be done Lord- plez forgive me for my sins & take me w/ u if I can't make it thru the day or night in Jesus name Amen." Clean now, but the side effects of that life style still have a STRONG presence 24-7. Pull thru 1 rut, only to "bottom out" in another rut in a diff ditch. The detox hell is over, but the struggle now is mentally. Not just being mentally strong about people,places & things. The HARDEST thing to deal w/ is waiting for ur Brain to "reset" & restore-replenish everything. Thought the hard part was over- NO it's just getting STARTED after the worse dt's I have ever been thru. Very Very discouraging to hear it will take 6-12 months for a complete "reset". My GOD. I see now why people go back to a drug, what depression feels like & even why someone would commit- end it. Never understood all that- till I had to go thru the same struggle. Ur comment was uplifting. Thank u
So many songs shaped my childhood and early teens this song always stuck in my head it's 2022 and I still love the song this song has a way into my soul ❤️
This song brought tears to my eyes the first time I heard it, and it is one of my favorite songs. It is so beautiful and gives a message of hope. God will forgive us, we just have to ask for His forgiveness and live for Him.
I. love. this. song. its. makes. think. of. my. son. who. passed. away. in. 20012. Trent. looks. just. him. he. would. pass. for. his. twin. and.

I'm so thankful I still have my Dad! I don't know what I'd do without him. He's had some rough patches in his life, but I wouldn't have him any other way. He's my best friend and raised me to be the man I am today. Faithful, Religious, Caring, with just the right amount of Badass!
Two years has passed since I lost my daddy. This song was “his song”. He lived a crazy rough life. But there’s no doubt he didn’t make it to meet God. Oh how I miss him. 💔 Cherish then while you still have them.
We all have someone we don't want to forget that's my daddy he was a good man he didn't use people he took care of his responsibility and didn't guilt trip anyone you just don't find them like that parents think we owe them the world it's ok to love your parents but sometimes they want you to feel bad for the shit they do it's just not ok love them but realize when they use you my daddy was never like that he took care of himself if he didn't need it he do without he worked harder than anyone I know he was a strong man that made mistakes but he paid for them and got right with God I was all he had left in this world I miss my daddy I guess that's why I don't depend on people I work hard and am learning to fight through my depression and still go into work because my kid needs me
I love this song. It reminds me of my daddy who passed away right after christmas 2017.. He was a legend in his own right.. And amazing daddy and it breaks my heart to know he is no longer with us.
@@trenttomlinson370 I doubt you will remember this but you played at the boat basin in Bainbridge Ga one fourth of July and me and my Daddy held hands and cried to this song. My Daddy was my hero my best friend and my whole world. I haven't been the same since I lost him right before Christmas a few years ago. Having to tell him goodbye is still one of the hardest things I've ever had to do before in my life. I don't even know the words to define what a hole I have in my heart. It physically aches because I miss him so terribly. I also buried my husband when I was 5 months pregnant with hIs second child so my boys also know what it's like to grow up without a Daddy and he was like my Daddy a hell of a long way from perfect but still an angel with one wing in the fire. Thanks so much for your music 💯💕Maybe one day you can sing one of my songs😂 Best wishes to you for a long happy and prosperous career. You have impacted allot of lives with your music!
Ive never found god in a church.. A Holly spirit vibe maybe but Jesus doesnt live there.. U do ur research and u find God in whatever way u can ❤🙏he waits for u
@@cloudstrife8502 I know but it's hard to do that when I feel like I fail him cause I can't seem to stop drinking. I have failed my kids and myself, too.
I understand this song I am a 32-year-old girl with special needs autism mainly and I think I was an answer to my nanas prayer. She wanted my grandfather to accept Christ and I am the only one that got him to accept Christ all I said was, would you like to see me without disabilities in heaven, because I can’t wait to run to you without any issues Papa bear
This is my one of my favorite songs and I'm 41 with Autism and physical disabilities and I used to be a Rebel and thank God I saved 10/14/07..@25..and better is one day in His courts than a thousand elsewhere..and I lost a dear friend this week to brain aneurysm and stroke and I can only hope in that moment of coma my friend had lucidity and got right with Jesus yet that's between Him and our maker..but I know what you mean and thank God for amazing grace
This has been me for a couple years! Got a 6 month old don't want her singin this song about daddy... But want her to sing it cause it's a great song! Keep it up Trent
I Played this song for my father at his funeral4 years ago . Something made me come back and play today. I Burst down in tears. Please believe in my father like I believe in you god and please believe in me!
My dad passed away from alcoholism in 2008. I was 27 and my sister 18. Great,hard working,loving man with a disease.. I love you daddy to the moon and back. miss you everyday. RIP
13 years ago 12-19-06 I lost my father we played this at his funeral every year on this day I listen to this miss you dad Shanon Patrick Leverett 3/15/68-12/19/06
The craziest thing about this song and it’s popularity is that the reason it got so much air time is that his dad who it is about sit down with a list of the syndicated radio stations and called them one by one about playing it as a way to support his son because his label and promotional team were dropping the ball and he felt like he owed it to him (trent tells the story on one riley greens golden saw shows and seeing this pop up reminded me)
This song brings tears to my eyes alot of people out there dont know their father like me all I got is a step dad and hes the only person I've known as dad most of my life God bless everyone Happy Thanksgiving y'all
Who is listening to this in 2019. Cause I am and this song means alot cause my biological father and stepdad is getting ready to go and been down the wrong road to this day.😥😥
Came back to this song after loosing my best friend. 22 years young. Heaven gained one hell of an angel, and I hope she’s giving heaven a little hell. Raise some hell and get much needed rest till I get there, sis ♥️ rest easy Victoria ♥️♥️
Love u for life daddy.. Now I know why u used to b like u was daddy.. N u will always b wit me n I kno it... Daddy u will always b my angel.. U were my #1 n u always will be.. Love n miss u daddy.. U did the best wit us kids.. I miss u like crazy daddy.. Love u daddy...love daddy's girl...❤😭😭😭😭😭😭
I’m in 2020 and this song means so much to me I got real bad off in life a and if it wasn’t for my dad believing in me and getting me to pray with him every night I wouldn’t be who I am today

I lost my dad on 3/5/22 he taught me how to do everything from fix Cars to build houses. The only thing he didn't teach me was how to live in a world without him.
Damn man sorry for your loss...
My dad taught me the same things, it sure ain't easy without his wisdom.
So hard to live without them
You want some cheese to go with the whine?
My daddy left when I was 12 "take yourself up by your boot straps and be a man" was one of the last things he said
I miss this kind of country
So wish they would bring it back it had so much more of a message to it
Damn straight wish they still played this on the radio today ❤❤❤
Modern country being pushed to the mainstream is D E G E N E R A T E T R A S H. I said it.
You literally won't hear a slide guitar anymore.
Still listening in 2024.... missing my dad who passes in 09. Love you dad, I'll see you one of these days and get to surprise you that I actually made it to heaven.

You made it through. And you honored him. The tears are a testimony to how much you loved him♥️

As a new father to a 7 day old son and as a son of a broken father let me say this.

This song is dedicated to My Daddy-- My SuperMan...
I just lost my father and this really hits home with me. My father was far from perfect but he did his best for us
Sorry bro. I lost my dad as well and this song hits hard
I am listening to this song on the anniversary of my mothers death. She passed in away 2014. I can relate to what you are saying.
Played this at my Daddy's funeral! He was the best Dad❤
We don't do things the way society wants us to but what feels right to our souls
Daddy's been a back-row Baptist
With his share of front-row sin
His Saturday night still on his breath
Every Sunday when he'd walk in
He's never led the Benediction
He's never sang in the choir
But he's an angel with no halo
And one wing in the fire
Mama lives by the Bible
The Bible lives by the bed
And she's lied alone so many nights
With scriptures in her head
Prayin', Good Lord, just be with him
I know his faith is tired
But he's an angel with no halo
And one wing in the fire
And I know he lives a little left of livin' right
And he's come close to goin' way too far a few times
But I'd trade a thousand prayers if just one prayer would come true
Lord, please believe in him, like I believe in you
Daddy's always been there for me
From T-Ball to touchdowns
Fixed my car and fixed my heart
When they've been broken down
I know he calls for more forgiveness
Than most folks do require
But he's an angel with no halo
And one wing in the fire
And I know he lives a little left of livin' right
And he's come close to goin' way too far a few times
But I'd trade a thousand prayers if just one prayer would come true
Lord, please believe in him, like I believe in you
Well, I just can't imagine
What Heaven might be like
If me and mama make it
Without daddy by our side
Lord, could you please remember
When it's time to call us higher
That he's an angel with no halo
And one wing in the fire
Thank you!
I always loved this song. Country isn’t the same.
this older county music will always have more of a meaning to it than this new stuff
Don't think of this as older country but ok
Amen
Michael Bodell amen
The only good ones nowadays are luke combs, Jamey Johnson, Chris Stapleton, Tyler Childers, and a couple more.
Michael Bodell Films I wouldn’t even call today’s country music country more pop an rap
A lot of folk don't miss daddy till he's gone. Dad is that unsung hero with one wing in the fire that loved the shit out of you.
My dad's been gone since 2012 and I miss him every day
My Dad's a lazy piece of shit who just watched TV and played solitaire on the PC, but never hesitated to turn either off to hear about my shit ass day at work...That's why I'm working on slowly coming up with a back tattoo for both him and my Mom for supporting my brother and I through this shitty ass economy. We're both stuck in a rut, my brother is much more frugal than me so it hasn't hit him as hard...but me I dream of big houses and flashy cars in the drive ;)
Gabe Moore A straight forward comment but one of truth ✨☝️
Oh my God so true I miss my daddy too much. He was only in his 70's
@@derek0173 my pop is in his 70's...and I still dread the day i go out on break for some nicotine..take my phone off airplane mode and get the text i won't forget. I tell my Mom if anything bad goes down call the store, fuck my job. I'm gone in a flash.
This song gives me chills because it reminds me of my own dad who "lived a little left of livin' right". He was awesome. Worked hard, played hard.
I played this song at my Daddy's funeral. So special to me!! My dad made over❤
My mom passed away and of course my dad had a hard time dealing with them but eventually he found someone that I believe my mom sent from heaven because she has helped my dad to slowly restore his faith in God. And as for me on May 16th of this year I got baptized and I gave my life to the Lord and since then I found a piece and happiness that I hadn't felt in a long time.
WAY TO GO!!! THATS`S AWSOME !!
Amazing! God is truly great. He will definitely make you feel peace and happiness :)
Amen my sister. Just remember to praise God in the valley just as you would on the mountain top. And if you are anywhere close to South Carolina, I must send out an invitation to come to Johnsonville Church of God in Johnsonville South Carolina or Gateway Ministries in Hemingway South Carolina.
amazing grace
Praise God !!
September 2021, and this song is still the best I’ve heard. Love Love Love This!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Almost 2022. 12/28/21
One of the best
Agreed 🖤🖤🖤🖤 2022 still being played
I'm not really a country fan, and I'm certainly not a Christian by any stretch - but I love this song. Still listening in January 2022.
How does this not have more views, it is one of the most meaningful and best sang songs ive ever heard.
This song really makes me think about all the times that I've let my father down or hurt him. Or the times that I could have been more patient. Maybe a little more giving, and alot less selfish. But most importantly I think about how much I truly appreciate everything he has sacrificed for the sake of our family. Every time I hear this song, it just makes me want to be a better man so that someday, I may make him proud. Thanks for everything Dad.
Today marks 5 years my dad was been gone. I was only 15 at the time. This song Chokes me up everytime i hear it. This is him 100%. Love you dad..
Dad I miss you ..... So heres how I get closer to you . This song reminds me of you . love you always your son .
I know this song must have been written with my uncle in mind. He lived life by his own rules. Not a damn thing wrong with that. I know he's up in heaven yet I can feel him here with me when I need him the most. RIP Uncle Sed..Love always
still listening in 2020! Love this song!
Adrian Miller same here
Same
Me too!
What happened to him? He just disappeared
@@loririchards150 He's still writing and singing country music. If you're on Facebook, look him up and follow him. He posts often.
for those of you that still have a father cherish every moment that you have with him love him care for him be there when he needs you cherish every moment you have of your dad everyday
My dad had passed when I was 8😥😥
Lost my Dad, 17 yrs ago, not a day goes that I don't think of him.
I agree with you Kriptonite98!!! I lost my mom 2 years ago, was her caregiver 10 years,dad lives 12 hours away, he lost his 2nd wife 4 years ago.I have no brothers or sisters but I email my dad almost everyday and send pictures and I haven't seen him in 45 years, and that's hard to deal with. I miss my dad and love him with all my heart!!! This is a great song too by Trent Tomlinson and I listen to it and sing it all the time.
R.I.P. Pops 2015
Me and my dad are like bestfriends we do everything together
We lost the most important person to me 2 days ago my Father, and this reminds me of him so much RIP pop
I absolutely love this song. Makes me think of my dad. He's been gone many years now, but I still miss him. He was quite a man.
I'm a back row Pentecost...But I still believe and I have Faith..I just cant totally surrender...
2021- God bless Everyone!!!
Intercessory prayer for the dead has been considered mostly a Catholic practice in recent centuries. But early Protestant evangelists like John and Charles Wesley believed in it. (Methodist tradition). Luther said to pray for the salvation of the dead as much as it was possible in God's plan of redemption. (Lutheran traditon). And a number of Anglicans also practiced intercession for the dead. Here we have a song picturing a Baptist practicing intercession for his deceased father recently in history. Intercessory prayer is actually a kind of mediation with one believer acting as a "go between" between God and another human. This song is a touching example of this kind of Christian prayer. St Paul not only "allows" us to make intercessions for others, he "urges" us to do it.
Lost my dad almost 3 years ago and I still can't listen to this song without crying. It reminds me so much of him that I can't stop crying, it still hurts that he's not here.
i cry too
My dads been gone almost 18 months and I feel the same. He struggled with addiction a good portion of my life and we fought a lot but I was a daddys girl to the end. He was indeed "an angel with no halo, and one wing in the fire". And I miss him every day.
My dad will be gone 3 yrs May 12th so I understand what ur going thru; brings tears too my eyes every time I hear this song! 😥
Michelle Couch I understand i lost my dad also
God bless your Dad he's still watching over and protecting you. A Dad's job is never done
Lost and broken ? Me to the tee married and all alone, teenage boys who have no respect . I work all the time and can't get ahead . . My life is in shambles but this song makes it some what easier
If you are still on this side of the dirt it is never too late to ask god for forgiveness he loves and adores us and wants us to b close to him. I love God he has worked miracles in my life ever since I was reborn AMEN!!
Dave duddly
My mom never gave up praying for me.
I am proud of you for saying that never 2 late?! Lol
I once was a believer now on the fence leaning to far over either way this is a fantastic song
I'm just now listening to this song for the 1st time. I"m trying to pull myself out of a "deep muddy ditch". I took a couple wrong turns, then veered of my path & hit bottom @ 100mph. Put myself in the mud- was over my head for a while. The weight of the struggle- the FIGHT to GET & STAY clean was unbearable @ times. Got to the point where I could only prey "for my children & their mother to have a good life, to be safe, PLEZ LORD TELL THEM HOW MUCH I LUV Them, HOW SORRY I AM For letting them down, don't make same mistakes I did & may ur will be done Lord- plez forgive me for my sins & take me w/ u if I can't make it thru the day or night in Jesus name Amen." Clean now, but the side effects of that life style still have a STRONG presence 24-7. Pull thru 1 rut, only to "bottom out" in another rut in a diff ditch. The detox hell is over, but the struggle now is mentally. Not just being mentally strong about people,places & things. The HARDEST thing to deal w/ is waiting for ur Brain to "reset" & restore-replenish everything. Thought the hard part was over- NO it's just getting STARTED after the worse dt's I have ever been thru. Very Very discouraging to hear it will take 6-12 months for a complete "reset". My GOD. I see now why people go back to a drug, what depression feels like & even why someone would commit- end it. Never understood all that- till I had to go thru the same struggle. Ur comment was uplifting. Thank u
Being as I just left my Daddy's hospital room and he went to the other side, Daddy this one and many many more are for you!
This song always reminded me of my Dad. We lost him three days ago. I had to come here and hear this. Love you Dad.
Thanks so much i really appreciate and those are what makes people think about me and my music🎵..how long have you been a fan of my music
Today is my Dad,s birthday,he,s been gone since 2011 and I miss him everyday,he was a hell of a man,nobody I know companies to him
Trent is way underrated!!!!
eddie brandenburg agreed. I listened to this so much as a little kid. He has a great talent at singing. Better than this new country
Yes he is!
Where did he go. I miss his music
I agree and he is very awesome in concert
eddie brandenburg I agree
I can't believe this song doesn't have way more views 😢 everytime I hear it I think of my father and it kills me
So many songs shaped my childhood and early teens this song always stuck in my head it's 2022 and I still love the song this song has a way into my soul ❤️
2024 and I'm still listening to it.
Americans for the most part are 90% awesome and 10% crazy. May the good Lord be with us.
2019 Still blasting in the country!
BIG T GREEN 1973
I lost my dad last year this song fits him perfectly 😢
This song brought tears to my eyes the first time I heard it, and it is one of my favorite songs. It is so beautiful and gives a message of hope. God will forgive us, we just have to ask for His forgiveness and live for Him.
This song never gets old
This song makes me cry everytime I hear it! Beautifully written!
I have goosebumps on my arms right now! So beautiful.

I'm so thankful I still have my Dad! I don't know what I'd do without him. He's had some rough patches in his life, but I wouldn't have him any other way. He's my best friend and raised me to be the man I am today. Faithful, Religious, Caring, with just the right amount of Badass!
love him and hug him everyday cause I miss mine more than anybody will ever know
jacob trevino same except I'm a girl. lol
Haley Ivy I lost both of parents at the same time,that's the only time I have ever seen lowered in the same grave,I miss them so much.
Maryl Hayton
My too
Two years has passed since I lost my daddy. This song was “his song”. He lived a crazy rough life. But there’s no doubt he didn’t make it to meet God. Oh how I miss him. 💔 Cherish then while you still have them.
I absolutely love this song with every fiber of my being .
Thanks so much i really appreciate and those are what makes people think about me and my music🎵..how long have you been a fan of my music
We all have someone we don't want to forget that's my daddy he was a good man he didn't use people he took care of his responsibility and didn't guilt trip anyone you just don't find them like that parents think we owe them the world it's ok to love your parents but sometimes they want you to feel bad for the shit they do it's just not ok love them but realize when they use you my daddy was never like that he took care of himself if he didn't need it he do without he worked harder than anyone I know he was a strong man that made mistakes but he paid for them and got right with God I was all he had left in this world I miss my daddy I guess that's why I don't depend on people I work hard and am learning to fight through my depression and still go into work because my kid needs me
I love this song. It reminds me of my daddy who passed away right after christmas 2017.. He was a legend in his own right.. And amazing daddy and it breaks my heart to know he is no longer with us.
Me to we play it at my dad gave yeard
Thanks so much i really appreciate and those are what makes people think about me and my music🎵..how long have you been a fan of my music
@@trenttomlinson370 I doubt you will remember this but you played at the boat basin in Bainbridge Ga one fourth of July and me and my Daddy held hands and cried to this song. My Daddy was my hero my best friend and my whole world. I haven't been the same since I lost him right before Christmas a few years ago. Having to tell him goodbye is still one of the hardest things I've ever had to do before in my life. I don't even know the words to define what a hole I have in my heart. It physically aches because I miss him so terribly. I also buried my husband when I was 5 months pregnant with hIs second child so my boys also know what it's like to grow up without a Daddy and he was like my Daddy a hell of a long way from perfect but still an angel with one wing in the fire. Thanks so much for your music 💯💕Maybe one day you can sing one of my songs😂 Best wishes to you for a long happy and prosperous career. You have impacted allot of lives with your music!
Just a sinner, one day at a time with Gods grace.
So sorry for the infringe on your privacy. Beautiful song! Hello
Im a true testimony to this song!!!!
Thanks so much i really appreciate and those are what makes people think about me and my music🎵..how long have you been a fan of my music 🎵
Played this at my dad's funeral yesterday it always suited him
Who still listening to this in 2019 ?
I TIMMY GREEN 1973
Real people who appreciate the path of music from Hank to Darius.....
I do
I John Johnson 1976 .
🤦♀️ I am 🙋♀️
This is the foundation of real country music...Amen.
This song was dedicated to me by my children. I truly believe that I need to start going back to church and start believing in Jesus again.
:(
Did u?
I started to but quit going cause I had to work every Sunday.
Ive never found god in a church.. A Holly spirit vibe maybe but Jesus doesnt live there.. U do ur research and u find God in whatever way u can ❤🙏he waits for u
@@cloudstrife8502 I know but it's hard to do that when I feel like I fail him cause I can't seem to stop drinking. I have failed my kids and myself, too.
I understand this song I am a 32-year-old girl with special needs autism mainly and I think I was an answer to my nanas prayer. She wanted my grandfather to accept Christ and I am the only one that got him to accept Christ all I said was, would you like to see me without disabilities in heaven, because I can’t wait to run to you without any issues Papa bear
This is my one of my favorite songs and I'm 41 with Autism and physical disabilities and I used to be a Rebel and thank God I saved 10/14/07..@25..and better is one day in His courts than a thousand elsewhere..and I lost a dear friend this week to brain aneurysm and stroke and I can only hope in that moment of coma my friend had lucidity and got right with Jesus yet that's between Him and our maker..but I know what you mean and thank God for amazing grace
This has been me for a couple years! Got a 6 month old don't want her singin this song about daddy... But want her to sing it cause it's a great song! Keep it up Trent
I Played this song for my father at his funeral4 years ago . Something made me come back and play today. I Burst down in tears. Please believe in my father like I believe in you god and please believe in me!
First time I've heard this song...I love it!
Great voice, great message.
i remember doing jagerbombs with trent, his manager and band on his tour bus after a show. one of the best nights of my life.
I have always loved this song. It’s been a while since I heard it. Made me cry like it always does. Man I miss my daddy
Guess that was my Daddy. I loved him in spite of himself. Alot of people couldn't understand my thinking. Well...God did!!
How could you dislike this song? It's so well done and written.
Still listening to it 2021! , where you @ Trent!!! we need more music buddy!
I listen to this every time I’m missing my dad. This is so his song.
This guy right here definitely talented man especially playing piano n sing just him
This song hits my soul
Seen him in concert grand rapids mi. What a great entertainer he was that night!
My dad passed away from alcoholism in 2008. I was 27 and my sister 18. Great,hard working,loving man with a disease.. I love you daddy to the moon and back. miss you everyday. RIP
Same story here
Reminiscing today. This song was played at my dad's funeral. I couldn't listen to it for the longest time. Hugs to all missing their daddy.
Thanks so much i really appreciate and those are what makes people think about me and my music🎵..how long have you been a fan of my music 🎵 😍
13 years ago 12-19-06 I lost my father we played this at his funeral every year on this day I listen to this miss you dad Shanon Patrick Leverett 3/15/68-12/19/06
The craziest thing about this song and it’s popularity is that the reason it got so much air time is that his dad who it is about sit down with a list of the syndicated radio stations and called them one by one about playing it as a way to support his son because his label and promotional team were dropping the ball and he felt like he owed it to him (trent tells the story on one riley greens golden saw shows and seeing this pop up reminded me)
Beautiful song that has touched the heart of my daughters and I this Father's Day about their father. Jesus Saves!
I lost my dad in 2012 he was my everything
STILL LISTENING (2021) IT'S STILL FRESH.💓
This song brings tears to my eyes alot of people out there dont know their father like me all I got is a step dad and hes the only person I've known as dad most of my life God bless everyone Happy Thanksgiving y'all
Who is listening to this in 2019. Cause I am and this song means alot cause my biological father and stepdad is getting ready to go and been down the wrong road to this day.😥😥
Came back to this song after loosing my best friend. 22 years young. Heaven gained one hell of an angel, and I hope she’s giving heaven a little hell. Raise some hell and get much needed rest till I get there, sis ♥️ rest easy Victoria ♥️♥️
one of my favorite songs of all time
Love seeing the ole Kennett boys making it. His family is really great also. Known most of them since I were a kid
my dad is an angel without a halo but I promise you dad that I will take care of mom. I love you daddy, and we all miss you
I love my dad very much now he's home with the lord
I always stop at 3:22 because I think the idea that they're at a funeral instead just fits the song better.
2024 anyone
Song still holds up
Yeah
@@TheFattestDad facts and so true bout the man I called my dad even though he's died back in 2018

I absolutely love this song and has a lot of meaning!!!!!
I’m in 2020 and this song means so much to me I got real bad off in life a and if it wasn’t for my dad believing in me and getting me to pray with him every night I wouldn’t be who I am today
