I am too. I was a teenager when I first heard it and I sit down at the piano and played it, back in those days I only had to listen to the song one time and I could sit down and play now that I am 62 years old I'm out of practice
Surely one of the most beautiful songs written and sung by kris kristopherson Thank you sir It gives me so much peace to listen to this song when I lay in bed with pain.
Why Me Lord, I was Lost, I was abused when I was young, there was no one who loves me as much as you, thank you Jesus, Yes My Soul is in your Hands, I love you Lord, you gave me Love that is so true. Yes Lord Help me through this time I am here
Thank you, God thank you, Jesus and thank you. Chris, for a beautiful song. The inspiration will continue as we let go of the hatred in the ones against us.
Incredibly beautiful!! Praise Jesus! I have parkinson's disease but every morning I try and walk around outside as much as possible while praying and listening to this song on my phone.
Sept, 29, 2024... RIP Kris. Just got news Kris is no longer with us and has gone to be with Our Lord. Thank you for the years of singing, playing the guitar, writing fantastic music, and acting. You'll be forever missed. ❤ 🙏 ❤
I'm impressed with your Profile and personality, and I also admire your good sense of humor on here, I don't normally write in the comment section but I think you deserved this compliment, hope you don't mind us being good friends 🌹
Was listening to this on South African top of the Pops, sometime way back in '73(?)....it entered at no. 19 and the very next week it was no.1, where it remained many weeks.
I look forward to the day I can hug this man for this beautiful song. It brings a tear to my eye every time I hear it. This song speaks to the many of us who were once lost and are now found. Yes I am a man and when I hear this song I cry because at one time I was in so much pain I wanted to end it all just to stop the pain. But one day, one glorious and eternal day, a day I will remember for all eternity, I asked God why he loved me, why he loved a wretch like me. And God answered me with these words..."I love you because you are mine." What beautiful words. I wasn't lost or alone or forgotten anymore. I was his child just as I was but he would not let me stay that way. He healed a broken man. A man who for 10 years thought about ending it all every day. So much pain, so much sorrow but God took this wretched orphan and adopted him for no other reason than he loved me. Now every day God is guiding me, transforming me and making me the true man he wants me to be. It's not an easy path but it's the right path. And he gives me the strength to continue. I can rejoice, yes I said rejoice, now because I know without any doubts I will see Jesus some day. Jesus is my Savior. Jesus will never leave me nor forsake me. Jesus' steadfast love endures forever.
❤I love your testimony! He is The Wounded Healer🙏🏼May The Lord continue to Bless You 🙏🏼. “They overcame by the blood of the lamb and the word of their testimony” See you in Heaven❤ Sir
My wife had stage 4 colon cancer It was in the last stages. The doctors removed all of it I asked Jesus not to take her. He brought her back to me. He said my child I've got her. She's going to be ok. Trust me. And this song Has been stuck in my head
Amen! 1Peter 3:15 But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear:
I will pray for her my name is Debbie I'm going through my own little problems with my heart but I will pray for her take care and God bless and God is good he's great
God Bless everyone on these comments. My Father used to sing this song when I was a child. It brings back a lot of memories and at the same time a lot of understanding of how blessed we are to be chosen, messengers of God.
This reminds me of when my mom got saved and filled with the Holy Spirit back in the 70’s.Been thinking about her a lot today,and I thank God that He gave me a praying momma.♥🙏🏻
This song poses a question. We all need to ask ourselves. Jesus has given us so much including His life and His love. We need to acknowledge and show our appreciation for all that we have received.
@@IgniriumJust let Him love you! "Little" things will start happening so pay attention. He loves you SO MUCH MORE than you can ever hope for or imagine. I'm happy for you dear one! 💜💫💜💫💜
@@diabock9712 Jesus/God love me and this is absolutely true and not false in any way. Black Holes exist and love and compassion is reserved for me, Asteroids can collide with this planet, and Jesus loves me. Cancer+Jesus exist, Bacteria and disease and Jesus, the sun is 15million degrees at the core and 10million degrees on the surface, is 4.6billion years old and Jesus loves me. The universe is full of radiation. Something doesn't make sense... All life is is people helping and caring about other people. Credit people more for how they help you and others! everything is being done on this planet by people. I don't want butterflies in my head and walk around thinking that Jesus loves me,
Kris Kristofferson is one in a million and has touched so many lives, hearts and souls. He will be among the Angels for sure. 73 years of age and have loved him since the first time I heard him sing. We were blessed with him and his talent. Rest in paradise but know you will never be forgotten.
breathe. be gentle with yourself. i know what you mean; life can be rough and downright disheartening, especially with everything going on right now. don't allow that feeling to grow; it isn't the truth. we are never alone. change the things you can that will make things better, and try not to get hung up on what you can't change; adapt. look for the things for which you are grateful, and do what you can to be of service to others- and i mean even just a smile to brighten someone else's day- and you might be surprised to find God is actually very close. i've had to remind myself of this very recently, too. be well. 💜
I am a Korean Christian. My grandfather came to believe in Jesus through an American missionary, became a pastor, and I live as a third generation pastor. I am always thankful for being saved through the blood of your mission. This song has been my favorite since I was in my 20s 35 years ago. I respect and love you
I wouldn't be here today if it wasn't for this song playing at the right time and the right place, and I'm sure there are plenty of other folks that can say the same thing. Thank you Sir for being a vessel of Gods mercy.
😢RIH FLY HIGH AND, REST IN YOUR HEAVENLY FATHER'S ARMS 🙏 💙, GOD BLESS YOU MY DEAR FRIEND. THANKYOU FOR ALL OF YOUR BEAUTIFUL MUSIC YOU HAVE LEFT FOR US ALL TO ENJOY. GONE BUT, NEVER FORGOTTEN.
Kris Kristofferson--Thank you for this song that has ministered to me over the last couple years. Now you are with Him, and indeed, your soul's in His hand. Rest in Glory good sir 🙏🙌🙌🙌
I read John 15:16 this morning where Jesus said “You did not choose Me, but I chose you.” And I asked Him.Why me Lord? And then I listened to this beautiful song and my soul was deeply moved.
Thanks for your love and support that has brought me this far, it has been a hard time for me going through this but your love and support keeps me going and standing strong in this difficult times. I do read your heartwarming comments and I truly appreciate all you’ve done for me throughout the years.
Deceived Christians think that they chose Jesus. True Christians know that God chose them and Jesus paid for their sins. Why does visible church preach that a lost soul has the ability to seek Jesus?
And I can't understand anyone who would refuse such an opportunity for Salvation and sharing their resurrection with JESUS CHRIST in the KINGDOM of Heaven...Amen!!!
One of the very best songs EVER written. It describes me totally. God in Heaven BLESS KRIS for sharing it with us ( ME)! Thank you, Thank you, Thank YOU !!!
This song touches my heart every time I hear it. I feel so undeserving at times of God’s love, but I know he’s always there for us. Thank you for this beautiful song
This is such an amazing song! We all say "why me?" when bad things happen. We should be wondering that when good things happen. None of us do anything to deserve the many blessings that the good Lord bestows upon us.
my dad didnt like music, of any kind. about 6 years ago.....he heard this on the radio driving one day....and asked who it was. given dad doesnt have the technology bug in his later years, he was at the mercy of only listening for it on the radio. we played it one last time for him when we laid him to rest on the 13th of sept 2021. such a great song. for all that read this.....please....love your family while you can. as, every day that goes by, is a chance that you wont have the option to tomorrow. be well. be kind. love, and understand.......accept.
Missing what a good artist even when your family thru you under the bus but we never gave up thank you for you life blessed is your soul always😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
Jesus, Jesus Jesus! Sometimes that's all I can say, because I don't know how to pray the right way. I love the Lord Jesus with all my heart and soul and nothing can separate us from My Sweet Lord! He willingly was nailed to a tree, had nails piercing his hands and his feet, for no other reason then he loved us so! Do not let the dark side convince you that his blood wasn't enough to forgive every and all of your sins! There isn't a sin great enough to undo what our beautiful Savior did on Calvary!
Gosh! Gosh! This song is so very beautiful, it will touch ur heart & im sure that we all knows that we need god in our lives! In our everyday lives cause he will never fail us!
FIRST TIME I HEARD THIS WAS ON MY WAY HOME( HOUR & HALF DRIVE ) I.SIMPLY HAD TO PULL OVER & WEEP MY SINS OVER.CALLED MY OLDER SISTER🙏😇🙏AND SHE UNDERSTOOD AND SAID SHE HAD BEEN🙏🙏 WAITING ON ME TO FIND HOW I. NEEDED JESUS IN MY LIFE.JUST HAVE TO SAY THANK YOU JESUS FOR SHOWING DEAR KRIS THIS LIFE SAVING MESSAGE.THANK YOU LORD TO MY SISTER WHO'S WITH JESUS NOW.🙏✝️👶✝️🙏
For those believers, upon awakening and turning in simply say "Thank You Jesus" Truly a heartfelt song sung by a true believer. Thank you Chris. This song has given hope to many.
✨🥀✨ Beautiful song. Singing “Jehovah” instead of “Lord” probably would be too revolutionary for many Christians. But the fact is that while you use in this song the word “Lord” you don’t mean Jesus but his Father. Jesus’ Father’s Divine Name is usually not mentioned by Christians because it creates for them confusion in the context of Trinity but also in the context of Jehovah’s Witnesses activity and teaching. And they are reasoning that we still should have in use God’s Divane Name what we can see in the Hebrew Scriptures. Jesus was worshipping his Father. He was praying to Him and had full trust that he will manage thanks to Him to fulfill his will. The word “Trinity “ that doesn’t appear in the Bible took away God’s Divine Name from Sacred Scriptures: the Sacred Name which doesn’t exist only in the Hebrew Scriptures but also in the Greek Ones [New Testament]. At every place in New Testament where Jesus is reading (or make a quotation) from Scriptures we can see today as a substitution of the Divine Name “Jehovah” the word “Lord”. The word “Lord” can apply for Jesus, for his Father or even for someone who has higher position than you. At Luke 4: 16- 30 we can read as the following: / Do you like it ? / 16 “And he came to Nazʹa·reth,+ where he had been reared; and, according to his custom on the sabbath day, he entered into the synagogue,+ and he stood up to read. 17 So the scroll of the prophet Isaiah was handed him, and he opened the scroll and found the place where it was written: 18 “Jehovah’s* spirit+ is upon me, because he anointed* me to declare good news to the poor, he sent me forth to preach a release to the captives and a recovery of sight to the blind, to send the crushed ones away with a release,+ 19 to preach Jehovah’s* acceptable year.”+ 20 With that he rolled up the scroll, handed it back to the attendant and sat down; and the eyes of all in the synagogue were intently fixed upon him. 21 Then he started to say to them: “Today this scripture that YOU just heard* is fulfilled.”+ 22 And they all began to give favorable witness about him and to marvel at the winsome words+ proceeding out of his mouth, and they were saying: “This is a son of Joseph, is it not?”+ 23 At this he said to them: “No doubt YOU will apply this illustration* to me, ‘Physician,+ cure yourself; the things+ we heard as having happened in Ca·perʹna·um+ do also here in your home territory.’”+ 24 But he said: “Truly I tell YOU that no prophet is accepted in his home territory. 25 For instance, I tell YOU in truth, There were many widows in Israel in the days of E·liʹjah, when the heaven was shut up three years and six months, so that a great famine fell upon all the land,+ 26 yet E·liʹjah was sent to none of those [women], but only to Zarʹe·phath*+ in the land of Siʹdon to a widow. 27 Also, there were many lepers in Israel in the time of E·liʹsha the prophet, yet not one of them was cleansed, but Naʹa·man the man of Syria.”+ 28 Now all those hearing these things in the synagogue became filled with anger;+ 29 and they rose up and hurried him outside the city, and they led him to the brow of the mountain* upon which their city had been built, in order to throw him down headlong.+ 30 But he went through the midst of them and continued on his way.+” www.jw.org/en/library/bible/bi12/books/luke/4/
Yeah I remember hearing this song A lot when I was a little kid in the 70s. And I always liked it. It was played at my grandma's funeral back in 2000. Always going to miss Kris Kristofferson now. You know just wrote some really good songs for a lot of great singers.
Lord help my Mom, pleasee, Lord. Her soul is in your hands. I've wasted it Lord, but Lord I now know.... Forgive me Lord, I know what I am,,,, a sinner saved by your grace 🍃🙏🏾
Prayers and thanksgiving you had that many years with her, A mom and daughter should not be freinds, but we understood who was boss, we were friends she passed before covid. It is well with my soul.i 4ever miss her,
How beautiful, Kris asks what he himself ever did, to deserve the love of our Lord Jesus Christ. We are each so important to our Lord. We don't have to be famous, beautiful, talented, successful...... Our Lord loves us equally, no matter what. How amazing this is, let us hold onto this through our lives, let us rely on this, let us marvel at our Lord's absolute love.
Many prayers going up today to the family of Kris Kristopherson❤️ My heart breaks for you all. We’ve lost a true legend of classic country and gospel music. The world truly has lost a good one today 😔. Rest In Peace Kris. We will always love you
You're doing it wrong I'm pretty sure brother. He's supposed to live through you, not you living through him. He wouldn't want you to miss the opportunities he has given you brother.
John 3:16-17 says that "God so loved the world that he gave his only beggoten Son, so that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life. (17) For God sent his Son into the world not to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.

John 3:18-21 He who believes in Him is not judged; he who does not believe has been judged already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. This is the judgment, that the Light has come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the Light, for their deeds were evil. For everyone who does evil hates the Light, and does not come to the Light for fear that his deeds will be exposed. But he who practices the truth comes to the Light, so that his deeds may be manifested as having been wrought in God."
@@jeannekelouwe4608 Hey! That is good to know, i can’t stop myself from listening to this song anytime am alone! If I may ask which of all his songs is your favorite? Have a great day… Stay Safe
I woke up this morning with this song going through my head. I don't know what I have done to deserve His love either. I have tried and I do love Jesus.
We'll see Kris when we get there thanks to the Godman ,precious Jesus based on what he said in his testimony about this song. He closed every show with this song... awesome!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I've always loved this song. I know a man that was fighting Alzheimer's, he didn't even know his children any longer, but they played this song a few days before he died and he knew every word. Tears ran down his face as he sang. Beautiful moment!
If this is true dear you need to be collecting Royalties ,Kris Kristofferson was a great songwriter, but as far as I know hasn't written any other Christian orGospel songs...He does make himself out to be the writer of this song
+Eva Grossman ?? I never said he did write any other gospel songs? Just telling a beautiful memory regarding this song. He did however, write "Sunday morning coming down"
greeneyeslinz I had a similar experience while my wife was struggling with Alzheimer's. We continued to attend church and sit up front. Brunetta rarely sang or did so very softly because she always said she had a poor voice and couldn't hold a tune. The song leader announced "O, what a Savior." I was singing along enthusiastically and realized I could hear a voice to my left. I looked at Brunetta and realized she was singing on key with a beautiful voice. My family has always believed it was God's way of making up for her loss of regular speech. Rick

This was my grandparents favorite song. They actually met Kris at Three Rivers Resort and he went down to their camper and played this song for them. Grandpa passed away in 2015 and we just had grandma’s service yesterday. Thank you Mister Kristofferson for giving them that wonderful memory!
@John Donohue Oh wow, May the Lord give you guidance and comfort under these difficult circumstances, May he also give you peace 🕊️, in your heart and mind, I know all too well how loosing a loved one feels, Myself, I just lost my baby sister the 3rd of this month, and it hasnt eased at all, I believe she is with Jesus, no more pain, sorrow, sadness, nothing negative, Its the same for your Grandma and loved ones... May God Bless You ✌🏻♥️🎵🙏🏻

Still listening 🎧 in 2024 to this beautiful song ❤🎉
I am too. I was a teenager when I first heard it and I sit down at the piano and played it, back in those days I only had to listen to the song one time and I could sit down and play now that I am 62 years old I'm out of practice
Me too! From April 1986 still listening to it and it’s May 2024! The Lord Be praised!

Thank you sir
It gives me so much peace to listen to this song when I lay in bed with pain.
Why Me Lord, I was Lost, I was abused when I was young, there was no one who loves me as much as you, thank you Jesus, Yes My Soul is in your Hands, I love you Lord, you gave me Love that is so true. Yes Lord Help me through this time I am here
I was abused too baby. In many ways. When I was just 4. I have thought s that I've gotta get past. I'm trying. You to.

Thank you, God thank you, Jesus and thank you. Chris, for a beautiful song. The inspiration will continue as we let go of the hatred in the ones against us.
Lord help me Jesus, I’ve wasted this life that you’ve died and suffered for me. I am a wretched sinner. I know what I am. My Soul’s in your hand ❤
Incredibly beautiful!! Praise Jesus! I have parkinson's disease but every morning I try and walk around outside as much as possible while praying and listening to this song on my phone.
My Brother one SWEET DAY You WON'T. YOU WILL BE PERFECT.KEEP HOLDING ON BROTHER. GOD'S GOT HIS PEOPLE.
Sept, 29, 2024... RIP Kris. Just got news Kris is no longer with us and has gone to be with Our Lord. Thank you for the years of singing, playing the guitar, writing fantastic music, and acting. You'll be forever missed. ❤ 🙏 ❤
Well said, singing, playing and especially writing. He's where he should be...
@beefdog2011 Your exactly right, his writing was incredible.
I used to listen to this when I was 8 yrs old and I understood the meaning. It helped me forgive some people who hurt me.
Hello Tracy, how are you doing??
I'm impressed with your Profile and personality, and I also admire your good sense of humor on here, I don't normally write in the comment section but I think you deserved this compliment, hope you don't mind us being good friends 🌹
Beautiful
Still listening in December 2024......thank you Lord Jesus!!!!
Sure miss this talented man!!
Was listening to this on South African top of the Pops, sometime way back in '73(?)....it entered at no. 19 and the very next week it was no.1, where it remained many weeks.
I'm just a 29-year-old millennial I know but I found this song and I think God led me to it for a reason.🙏
Amen for you 🙏 God amen ❤
Thsnk yoiu lord
My daddy song I can remember him fallen on his knees and start worshipping yaweh❤
My mom passed away April 8th 2023 I had this sung at her service by one of her best friends,. I know she was so proud
That's my mom's birthday
My mom died Dec 23 2022 and this was the song she requested and was played.
My goodness if this song doesn't move you and cry there's something bad wrong thank you for all the pleasure you have giving us RIP
I look forward to the day I can hug this man for this beautiful song. It brings a tear to my eye every time I hear it. This song speaks to the many of us who were once lost and are now found. Yes I am a man and when I hear this song I cry because at one time I was in so much pain I wanted to end it all just to stop the pain. But one day, one glorious and eternal day, a day I will remember for all eternity, I asked God why he loved me, why he loved a wretch like me. And God answered me with these words..."I love you because you are mine." What beautiful words. I wasn't lost or alone or forgotten anymore. I was his child just as I was but he would not let me stay that way. He healed a broken man. A man who for 10 years thought about ending it all every day. So much pain, so much sorrow but God took this wretched orphan and adopted him for no other reason than he loved me. Now every day God is guiding me, transforming me and making me the true man he wants me to be. It's not an easy path but it's the right path. And he gives me the strength to continue. I can rejoice, yes I said rejoice, now because I know without any doubts I will see Jesus some day. Jesus is my Savior. Jesus will never leave me nor forsake me. Jesus' steadfast love endures forever.
Amen
Amen
I keep of listening to thus song especially when I'm down it gives me strength to keep going feeling GOD is around.
❤I love your testimony! He is The Wounded Healer🙏🏼May The Lord continue to Bless You 🙏🏼. “They overcame by the blood of the lamb and the word of their testimony” See you in Heaven❤ Sir
God bless you
My wife had stage 4 colon cancer
It was in the last stages. The doctors removed all of it
I asked Jesus not to take her. He brought her back to me. He said my child I've got her. She's going to be ok. Trust me. And this song
Has been stuck in my head
Hallelujah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Amen! 1Peter 3:15 But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear:
I will pray for her my name is Debbie I'm going through my own little problems with my heart but I will pray for her take care and God bless and God is good he's great
God Bless everyone on these comments.
My Father used to sing this song when I was a child.
It brings back a lot of memories and at the same time a lot of understanding of how blessed we are to be chosen, messengers of God.
Share
I was saved the 28th, he passed the next day and I have since found this song and share it daily. Thank you kris I love you brother. RIP KRIS
Maybe he will meet my mother who passed away two years prior
This reminds me of when my mom got saved and filled with the Holy Spirit back in the 70’s.Been thinking about her a lot today,and I thank God that He gave me a praying momma.♥🙏🏻
This song poses a question. We all need to ask ourselves. Jesus has given us so much including His life and His love. We need to acknowledge and show our appreciation for all that we have received.
The song is so beautiful I love it so much I don’t know what to say
I don't believe in Jesus at all and i love this song :)
@@Ignirium Good on you
@@IgniriumJust let Him love you! "Little" things will start happening so pay attention. He loves you SO MUCH MORE than you can ever hope for or imagine. I'm happy for you dear one!
💜💫💜💫💜
@@diabock9712 Jesus/God love me and this is absolutely true and not false in any way.
Black Holes exist and love and compassion is reserved for me,
Asteroids can collide with this planet, and Jesus loves me. Cancer+Jesus exist, Bacteria and disease and Jesus, the sun is 15million degrees at the core and 10million degrees on the surface, is 4.6billion years old and Jesus loves me. The universe is full of radiation.
Something doesn't make sense...
All life is is people helping and caring about other people. Credit people more for how they help you and others! everything is being done on this planet by people.
I don't want butterflies in my head and walk around thinking that Jesus loves me,
Beautiful. A prayer we should all say often!! Thank you for sharing.
Kris Kristofferson is one in a million and has touched so many lives, hearts and souls. He will be among the Angels for sure. 73 years of age and have loved him since the first time I heard him sing. We were blessed with him and his talent. Rest in paradise but know you will never be forgotten.
Praise God the Father I hope that anybody that says this message will give it a thumbs up praise God for he is good
Love this song
@@bigmikecrawford5697 Ford is Jesus play Chris song
I am so grateful that my soul is in His Hands. Thank you ABBA!
Sometimes I feel like God gave up on me...
breathe. be gentle with yourself. i know what you mean; life can be rough and downright disheartening, especially with everything going on right now. don't allow that feeling to grow; it isn't the truth. we are never alone. change the things you can that will make things better, and try not to get hung up on what you can't change; adapt. look for the things for which you are grateful, and do what you can to be of service to others- and i mean even just a smile to brighten someone else's day- and you might be surprised to find God is actually very close. i've had to remind myself of this very recently, too.
be well. 💜
This song is like a prayer. All people who think about their journey, about their feelings, should listen to it ...
Great insight.Never quit.
@@carldavis1663 Like Dave Ramsey's reply when asked how he is doing. " Better than I deserve" So true!
This song will be played at my funeral. Love him
I needed this today.

RIP Kris - because your music touched the souls of so many - That's why you.
Amen!!
This is one of my all time favorite gospel songs, I grew up on this song and even love it more in 2024
I grew up on it too but means the world to me now at 52. Praise the Lord
I sang this song this song this morning in church!
I know that Kris walks with The Lord...🙏🕯💔😔 #ripkris
In a fight for my life right now.I have always believed in the Lord. I have turned my multiple myeloma over to the Lord .🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏
Amen he's willing
@gregnormal5101 this one
I am a Korean Christian.
My grandfather came to believe in Jesus through an American missionary, became a pastor, and I live as a third generation pastor.
I am always thankful for being saved through the blood of your mission.
This song has been my favorite since I was in my 20s 35 years ago.
I respect and love you
So beautiful how our Father Jesus seeks out his lil lambs across the earth. He’s so Amazing & worthy of Praise! ❤
I wouldn't be here today if it wasn't for this song playing at the right time and the right place, and I'm sure there are plenty of other folks that can say the same thing. Thank you Sir for being a vessel of Gods mercy.
Remember footprints in the sand

Kris Kristofferson--Thank you for this song that has ministered to me over the last couple years. Now you are with Him, and indeed, your soul's in His hand.
Rest in Glory good sir 🙏🙌🙌🙌
His, voice is true. And I have asked for forgiveness too. I cry, when I hear Chris voice.
I read John 15:16 this morning where Jesus said “You did not choose Me, but I chose you.”
And I asked Him.Why me Lord?
And then I listened to this beautiful song and my soul was deeply moved.
Thanks for your love and support that has brought me this far, it has been a hard time for me going through this but your love and support keeps me going and standing strong in this difficult times. I do read your heartwarming comments and I truly appreciate all you’ve done for me throughout the years.
Deceived Christians think that they chose Jesus. True Christians know that God chose them and Jesus paid for their sins. Why does visible church preach that a lost soul has the ability to seek Jesus?
And I can't understand anyone who would refuse such an opportunity for Salvation and sharing their resurrection with JESUS CHRIST in the KINGDOM of Heaven...Amen!!!
One of the very best songs EVER written. It describes me totally. God in Heaven BLESS KRIS for sharing it with us ( ME)! Thank you, Thank you, Thank YOU !!!
What a great song helped me make it thru these horrible years of the evil Joe Biden and what he has done to us all
This song touches my heart every time I hear it. I feel so undeserving at times of God’s love, but I know he’s always there for us. Thank you for this beautiful song
This song touches my heart every time too! I want it played when I go to Heaven...the words will touch everyone!
I second every word you wrote Rose Hamilton.
This song touches my soul. Love it!
@@nancyrobinson7764 Hello,how are you doing?
AMEN
May his soul rest in peace, love his voice and music 🙏
This is such an amazing song! We all say "why me?" when bad things happen. We should be wondering that when good things happen. None of us do anything to deserve the many blessings that the good Lord bestows upon us.

+Zen ofKen What's your problem?
MacGuffin Your story brought a tear to my 3 brown eyes...
my dad didnt like music, of any kind.
about 6 years ago.....he heard this on the radio driving one day....and asked who it was.
given dad doesnt have the technology bug in his later years, he was at the mercy of only listening for it on the radio.
we played it one last time for him when we laid him to rest on the 13th of sept 2021.
such a great song.
for all that read this.....please....love your family while you can.
as, every day that goes by, is a chance that you wont have the option to tomorrow.
be well.
be kind.

Ty for this post, I was feeling sad N lost and I found this song N your post. Pls keep me in prayer. I'm so tired, im broken 😭😭😭😭

That's why He let us hear this song in the very same cries.

Missing what a good artist even when your family thru you under the bus but we never gave up thank you for you life blessed is your soul always😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
Jesus, Jesus Jesus! Sometimes that's all I can say, because I don't know how to pray the right way. I love the Lord Jesus with all my heart and soul and nothing can separate us from My Sweet Lord! He willingly was nailed to a tree, had nails piercing his hands and his feet, for no other reason then he loved us so! Do not let the dark side convince you that his blood wasn't enough to forgive every and all of your sins! There isn't a sin great enough to undo what our beautiful
Savior did on Calvary!
There is no right or wrong way to pray. You just talk to Him and praise Him in your own words and way. Keep on sharing your life. You’re doing great
Gosh! Gosh! This song is so very beautiful, it will touch ur heart & im sure that we all knows that we need god in our lives! In our everyday lives cause he will never fail us!
We used to close out the night with this song. It's great to have people come & say they had to go to church after hearing that song in a club.
Great song. God bless Kris and rest in peace.

Hello Susan, how are you doing??
I have loved this song for as long as I can remember. My mom tells me that I sang on the Gogo stage at Deep Eddy Cabaret in Austin, Texas.
For those believers, upon awakening and turning in simply say "Thank You Jesus" Truly a heartfelt song sung by a true believer. Thank you Chris. This song has given hope to many.
Thank you Kris. I spell my son name same way , Kris not chris!
Thank You Jesus for giving us Kris Kristofferson--Kris did not waste his time--he inspired millions with his voice and his words
Hello!!! How are you doing? Please pardon me for intruding into your privacy but I just wanted to know if you are a fan? Have a great day… Stay Safe!

If he can save a sinner like me, what an awsome god we serve
😂😂😂Me too
And he is
✨🥀✨ Beautiful song. Singing “Jehovah” instead of “Lord” probably would be too revolutionary for many Christians. But the fact is that while you use in this song the word “Lord” you don’t mean Jesus but his Father. Jesus’ Father’s Divine Name is usually not mentioned by Christians because it creates for them confusion in the context of Trinity but also in the context of Jehovah’s Witnesses activity and teaching. And they are reasoning that we still should have in use God’s Divane Name what we can see in the Hebrew Scriptures. Jesus was worshipping his Father. He was praying to Him and had full trust that he will manage thanks to Him to fulfill his will. The word “Trinity “ that doesn’t appear in the Bible took away God’s Divine Name from Sacred Scriptures: the Sacred Name which doesn’t exist only in the Hebrew Scriptures but also in the Greek Ones [New Testament]. At every place in New Testament where Jesus is reading (or make a quotation) from Scriptures we can see today as a substitution of the Divine Name “Jehovah” the word “Lord”. The word “Lord” can apply for Jesus, for his Father or even for someone who has higher position than you. At Luke 4: 16- 30 we can read as the following:
/ Do you like it ? /
16 “And he came to Nazʹa·reth,+ where he had been reared; and, according to his custom on the sabbath day, he entered into the synagogue,+ and he stood up to read. 17 So the scroll of the prophet Isaiah was handed him, and he opened the scroll and found the place where it was written: 18 “Jehovah’s* spirit+ is upon me, because he anointed* me to declare good news to the poor, he sent me forth to preach a release to the captives and a recovery of sight to the blind, to send the crushed ones away with a release,+ 19 to preach Jehovah’s* acceptable year.”+ 20 With that he rolled up the scroll, handed it back to the attendant and sat down; and the eyes of all in the synagogue were intently fixed upon him. 21 Then he started to say to them: “Today this scripture that YOU just heard* is fulfilled.”+
22 And they all began to give favorable witness about him and to marvel at the winsome words+ proceeding out of his mouth, and they were saying: “This is a son of Joseph, is it not?”+ 23 At this he said to them: “No doubt YOU will apply this illustration* to me, ‘Physician,+ cure yourself; the things+ we heard as having happened in Ca·perʹna·um+ do also here in your home territory.’”+ 24 But he said: “Truly I tell YOU that no prophet is accepted in his home territory. 25 For instance, I tell YOU in truth, There were many widows in Israel in the days of E·liʹjah, when the heaven was shut up three years and six months, so that a great famine fell upon all the land,+ 26 yet E·liʹjah was sent to none of those [women], but only to Zarʹe·phath*+ in the land of Siʹdon to a widow. 27 Also, there were many lepers in Israel in the time of E·liʹsha the prophet, yet not one of them was cleansed, but Naʹa·man the man of Syria.”+ 28 Now all those hearing these things in the synagogue became filled with anger;+ 29 and they rose up and hurried him outside the city, and they led him to the brow of the mountain* upon which their city had been built, in order to throw him down headlong.+ 30 But he went through the midst of them and continued on his way.+”

RIP legend, you're with our lord and savior Jesus Christ now
Yeah I remember hearing this song A lot when I was a little kid in the 70s. And I always liked it. It was played at my grandma's funeral back in 2000. Always going to miss Kris Kristofferson now. You know just wrote some really good songs for a lot of great singers.
Lord help my Mom, pleasee, Lord. Her soul is in your hands. I've wasted it Lord, but Lord I now know.... Forgive me Lord, I know what I am,,,, a sinner saved by your grace 🍃🙏🏾
Prayers and thanksgiving you had that many years with her, A mom and daughter should not be freinds, but we understood who was boss, we were friends she passed before covid. It is well with my soul.i 4ever miss her,
Beautiful song, beautiful man! 2024 RIP.
Just Beautiful. I heared this song when I was a kid. Now I am 46 and it is just beautiful!
How beautiful, Kris asks what he himself ever did, to deserve the love of our Lord Jesus Christ.
We are each so important to our Lord.
We don't have to be famous, beautiful, talented, successful......
Our Lord loves us equally, no matter what.
How amazing this is, let us hold onto this through our lives, let us rely on this, let us marvel at our Lord's absolute love.
Best song Kris ever wrote ❤ and he wrote some good ones ! This song was inspired by his salvation in our Lord Jesus 🙏❤ JESUS IS LORD ❤
Many prayers going up today to the family of Kris Kristopherson❤️ My heart breaks for you all. We’ve lost a true legend of classic country and gospel music. The world truly has lost a good one today 😔. Rest In Peace Kris. We will always love you
Giving My life to Jesus is all that counts....32years now I'll never regret it ever...Thank you Jesus....❤️😊
You're doing it wrong I'm pretty sure brother. He's supposed to live through you, not you living through him. He wouldn't want you to miss the opportunities he has given you brother.
Rest Easy Kris Kristofferson....Legend 🕊️ 🪽 God bless ✝️ 🪽
My dad passed away August 2020. He sang this song. We sang it at his viewing. Miss you HBO.

John 3:16-17 says that "God so loved the world that he gave his only beggoten Son, so that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life. (17) For God sent his Son into the world not to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.

John 3:18-21
He who believes in Him is not judged; he who does not believe has been judged already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. This is the judgment, that the Light has come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the Light, for their deeds were evil. For everyone who does evil hates the Light, and does not come to the Light for fear that his deeds will be exposed. But he who practices the truth comes to the Light, so that his deeds may be manifested as having been wrought in God."
Immeasurable Joy that I have found His light. I knocked, and He answered. 🙏❤️🙏
I don’t know how I never heard this before! Magnificent! I so love Jesus! He’s helped me survive it all. Praise Jesus!
Absolutely BEAUTIFULL OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST PRECIOUS

O and one of his latests 'thank you for a life, that I call happy'. Just to see the guy is already heartwarming.
I woke up this morning with this song going through my head. I don't know what I have done to deserve His love either. I have tried and I do love Jesus.
Hello,how are you doing?
I woke up this morning in 2021 with it going through my head lol!
I woke up this morning singing this in my head, that’s what brought me here. Jesus Christ is King and Savior.
I've always been a believer but I tried everything except really surrender to Him. Now that I have, life is so much sweeter. Thanks again Jesus 😀

So happy to hear this. God bless you.
You gave me so much joy, with your words and beautiful music. Thank you so much for everything. R.I.P. king 😢❤
Thank you for this valuable song...
I've always loved this song. I know a man that was fighting Alzheimer's, he didn't even know his children any longer, but they played this song a few days before he died and he knew every word. Tears ran down his face as he sang. Beautiful moment!
If this is true dear you need to be collecting Royalties ,Kris Kristofferson was a great songwriter, but as far as I know hasn't written any other Christian orGospel songs...He does make himself out to be the writer of this song
+Eva Grossman ?? I never said he did write any other gospel songs? Just telling a beautiful memory regarding this song. He did however, write "Sunday morning coming down"
+Eva Grossman Jesus was a Capricorn comes to mind real quick. Listen carefully to Sunday Morning Coming Down.
Save the best for last
greeneyeslinz I had a similar experience while my wife was struggling with Alzheimer's. We continued to attend church and sit up front. Brunetta rarely sang or did so very softly because she always said she had a poor voice and couldn't hold a tune. The song leader announced "O, what a Savior." I was singing along enthusiastically and realized I could hear a voice to my left. I looked at Brunetta and realized she was singing on key with a beautiful voice. My family has always believed it was God's way of making up for her loss of regular speech. Rick
Oct2024 this brings me to tears every time I listen, I will have it played at my funeral
For the person who thinks no one love's them jesus love's you more than you will ever know.
Just think about it. All Jesus asks in return is love and believe in Him. I believe and love Him with all my heart. This song is beautiful.
