    Hard to listen to this beautiful song without balling. Our church, founded by my father-in-law in 1987, my husband and I had to leave over 2 yrs ago because of the current pastor, a disgrace and phony. We sure didn't want to leave and this song resonates in every possible way. The building prior to our church was a bar and night club. My husband and I served there many years, our children, now grown with children of their own accepted Jesus and was baptized there. Many, many awesome memories, it breaks my heart that we had to leave. When you look at the preacher with disgust, it's time to go. I know it's just a building but 😢...

    I just went to Blake Shelton’s concert and Emily opened for him and sang this song. I’ve never heard of her, nor had heard this song. I wept like a child up in the stands…. Never was moved as much during a song in all my life…. Thank you for cracking my egg and getting me to feel again…. This song is sent from God. Thank you….

    What a beautiful song!! For me, it was the Westside Missionary Baptist Church in Auburndale, Florida that was my home church many years ago. The old church is still there and it's had some rough times, but it's the place where I not only was saved and baptized, but where I gave my life to preach the Gospel and where I preached my first sermon on January 2nd, 1972. I was ordained there in 1982 and sent out by that church to do mission work. But, when I go home on a Sunday, I go to that old building and remember by Dad, Mom and Sister who are all with the Lord now.

    As a girl who was born into the church and have stayed all my life, I practically cut my teeth on the backs of wooden pews, took naps under those pews as a small child, knelt and prayed, and learned to wait on God and hear His loving voice speak to my heart there.
    Now as a worship leader and church musician, I love to hear songs that are pure and from the heart.
    I don’t know when I’ve heard a sweeter song! 🎶♥️

    Emily, This song is so beautiful. I love everything about it. The lyricism is absolutely poetic. The Lords hand is all over this. Thank you for glorifying him through the gifts he gave you. I just think God is so sweet to bring this song to my attention- i first started following you because i was researching granny square sweaters- and I’m using your pattern. Love your story and really enjoy your content. God bless you!

    Our congregation just experienced the sale of our church building. My dads funeral service was the last one held there 6 months ago. My mind wanders over the dear souls that departed and were eulogized there. Baptisms in Jesus name and souls that were filled with the Holy Ghost...testimonies about the goodness of God and instant healings....its so hard to say goodbye to a building...in the flesh....BUT praise God were are told that Jesus is not housed in a building. We can experience him ANYWHERE!!! IM so thankful that Jesus is a 24/7 help in the time of need.

    I absolutely love this song. I can't listen to it without tears running down my face. It's been a while since a new song came alone that really hits home. Like many others who left comments, I grew up in church. I think that's what makes this song so personal.

    I never comment on UA-cam. But for this one, I have to! I opened up the UA-cam app on my phone and literally asked God to point me to some new beautiful country music to discover. I don’t think it’s a coincidence that I came across your song. I’d never heard of you before, but tonight you gained a new fan. Not just because of your amazing voice and lyrical skill, but mostly because of your heart. Thank you for the gift that is this song. God bless you, beautiful sister. Keep spreading the love of Jesus! ❤

    Mrs. Roberts your music is the true meaning of gospel and country. This song lyrics have brought me back to where I need to be. I hope and pray that this song falls on the ears of the right person in the music industry. You deserve the recognition and "up and coming" doesn't give you justice. Blessings!

    There are few perfect songs. Where the words are eloquent and clever and move you to tears. Where the tune and the vocals are done with great thought and talent. A song that the first ten or more times you listen to it you sob. This is one of those songs.
    Praise God. Thank you Emily and everyone involved in making this masterpiece. Stay true to Jesus.

    WoW! This song took me back to an old white building where my daddy preached. Wood floors, wooden pews & an upright piano that played Amazing Grace, Just As I Am, etc & big pot luck dinners in the basement with all the family, friends & so many who have gone on to be with the Lord. That old white building has been replaced with a modern brick structure but my wonderful memories of that old church can never be replaced. Emily Roberts; Outstanding!!!!

    The church where I started attending at a week old, through most of my adult life, and ministered as a youth pastor was once the world’s largest Sunday School with an attendance of over 8,000. It is scheduled for demolition on March 20. There is much reminiscing among former members and this song is so appropriate at this time. It was a building where Jesus changed thousands of lives.
