    Craig Morgan is one of the most underrated musicians there is. He is one of the most talented and just incredible artists out there. He isn’t just a country music artist either he was a US Army Combat Medic 8 years, a firefighter for a moment and a deputy sheriff and a few other jobs as well. Craig Morgan is one of my favorite artists of all time. Go listen to his other songs and get ready to grab a few tissues for the water works! He is the epitome of an American Patriot and country music artist.

    That was the first time he sang the song in public. He wasn't going to record and release it. But Bluegrass and Country legend Ricky Scaggs told him that he absolutely had to, that people needed to hear it. Few weeks later, he released it as a single, and with the help of fellow artists like Blake Shelton, it went to #1. It's helped countless people struggling with grief and loss.

    One if the best reactions to this song. I watch every single reaction I see on this one. It hits so deep for people. That particular performance is one that he did not want to do, and afterwards he said he wouldn't do it live again. I think he has since then, but man...how difficult that must be. I also read that the lyrics came to him one night and he got up and wrote them down. With the exception of a few minor words, the lyslrics sung today are the same ones he wrote down in one sitting, right after his son drowned. So terribly sad.

The Scream that came out of me when I found out, I can Still feel in my body,& Still hear ringing in my head. Eric Clapton had lost his son,& “Tears From Heaven”helped hold me together, & Many songs down the road of these forever Duller Colored years, while This song has brought a peace & Joy, as I’m 25 years closer to holding her again. I have not met or Know of Anyone who has lost a child, being able to wish this gut broke feeling on even their Worst enemy-if they have one. Yes! We Do go on, but quietly know we’ve been Forever Changed that even leaves our footsteps a bit heavier each year, even with the GOD Given BLESSINGS of other children, bringing us Their unique Joy to our lives.😢🙏

    Hi Greg...
    For 30 years after the loss of my only child..my 16 year old son..I was drifting hoping tomorrow would never come again...then one day God had me draw a picture..of my son...I couldn't look at his face though..so I drew him from the back looking at the pass between huge clouds in the distance...
    A couple of days later I felt different..then started looking forward to the coming days...and I realized what God was saying...
    "He's not there..at the moment of pain..he's here !...waiting for you..waiting to greet you"...
    God saved my sanity that day 8 years ago...🙏...

      @@michelleshaw54 Oh Michelle I am crying for you and with you. I can only imagine. My daughter and I have the same relationship. She and her three children live with us. You have a great challenge ahead of you. I will not forget you in my prayers.
