    This isn't one of those "why do bad things happen to me" songs. It's a "why am I so blessed despite all the wrong things I've done" song.

    Kris is an outlaw country legend. You’ve heard him as part of the Highwaymen. Kris was a helicopter pilot in the service and also a Rhodes Scholar at Oxford (England). This song is about finding Jesus after a hard living, rockstar lifestyle. Which really did happen to him. Another great reaction guys!!❤

    Hey y'all, this was written from a real-life experience he had! The video is also on YT where he tells the story and performs the song surrounded by several major Country artists including Willie Nelson among others! Check it out, it's very touching! Great reaction!

    Awesome song ... fellow country singer Connie Smith took him to church with her and said he had a profound experience that led him to write this song.

    Kristofferson released his debut album Kristofferson in 1970. Among his songwriting credits are "Me and Bobby McGee", "For the Good Times", "Sunday Mornin' Comin' Down", and "Help Me Make It Through the Night", all of which became hits for other artists. Kristofferson was also a member of the country music supergroup the Highwaymen between 1985 and 1995. He has charted 12 times on the American Billboard Hot Country Songs charts; his highest peaking singles there are "Why Me" and "Highwayman", which reached number one in 1973 and 1985, respectively. He was inducted into the Country Music Hall of Fame in 2004 and received the Grammy Lifetime Achievement Award in 2014. He was a three-time Grammy Award winner, out of 13 total nominations. Kristofferson joined the Army in 1960 after graduating from Oxford. He became a helicopter pilot who trained at Fort Rucker in Alabama and also attended Ranger School, then worked as a helicopter pilot in Germany in the early 1960s and was eventually offered a teaching position at West Point in 1965 but turned it down and left the Army to chase his dream of becoming a country music singer/songwriter. He later used his piloting skills as a source of income while trying to succeed in Nashville in his early years there. For the next several years, Kristofferson focused on acting. He appeared in Cisco Pike (1972) with Gene Hackman; Blume in Love (1973), directed by Paul Mazursky; three Sam Peckinpah films: Pat Garrett and Billy the Kid (1973), Bring Me the Head of Alfredo Garcia (1974), and Convoy (1978); and Michael Ritchie's Semi-Tough (1977) with Burt Reynolds. He continued acting in Martin Scorsese's Alice Doesn't Live Here Anymore (1974), Vigilante Force (1976), The Sailor Who Fell from Grace with the Sea (1976), and the romantic drama A Star Is Born (1976) with Barbra Streisand, for which he received a Golden Globe Award for Best Actor. At the peak of his box office power, Kristofferson turned down William Friedkin's Sorcerer (1977) and the romantic war film Hanover Street (1979). Despite his success with Streisand, Kristofferson's solo musical career headed downward with his non-charting ninth album, Shake Hands with the Devil. His next film, the two-part 1979 NBC-TV movie Freedom Road, did not get good ratings nuf said. Peace out.

    ---- Thank You for listening to Kris .... I liked him alot from back in the 70's and 80's

    Amen. Kris Kristofferson (RIP) . So many great songs. Great lyricist, actor, American. Listen to “Sunday Morning Coming Down” for one of the most drunken sinner songs sang. He was an accomplished man. He and Wesley Snipes killed it in the original Blade if you’re down for watching that? Or “A Star is Born” with Barbara Streisand if you’re down for watching that? Kris Kristofferson is an American legend.

    Kris Kristofferson has to be one of the most talented humans who ever lived. Before writing some of the most amazing songs ever written, he was a Rhodes Scholar with a master's degree in English lit, an Army captain and helicopter pilot and a football and rugby star. He was also a Golden Globe-winning actor who starred opposite Barbra Streisand in A Star Is Born. He was a member of the supergroup The Highwaymen, alongside Johnny Cash, Waylon Jennings and Willie Nelson. I think if you take seven minutes to read his biography in Wikipedia, you'll truly be amazed at what one man can accomplish in a single lifetime.

    This is a man thanking Jesus for all that has been done for him that he did not deserve and asking what can I do to repay and maybe I can help lead someone else to you by telling them by what I have went through when I was out away from you to get back to you . He is thanking God for all he has been blessed with , He is saying Why Me Lord why would you bless me so much when I am nothing.

    You should find the video where he talks about going to church with a friend and found himself drawn to go to the alter , and being saved at the service, which caused him to write this song. A lot of his writing was based on personal experiences. One of his biggest songs he wrote was Janis Joplin’s “Me And Bobby McGee” ….in fact he was dating her at the time she overdosed and died. He wasn’t even aware that she’d recorded his song. And she died before it was released..

    He's basically saying that he did a lot of wrongs in life, drugs, drinking, wasting money, cheating and wants to know why God continued to bless him with so much. He then talks about maybe he should be sharing the wrongs he's done in order to help others to see that after all of that you can find Jesus and pull yourself out of the wrong that you did. Recognize and admit your sins, try to correct them and not repeat them and God will forgive you✝
