    In 2008 I played this for my Father. I wanted him to hear it before I played it for him again, hopefully decades later, at his funeral. My father passed away recently, 9-1-24 at 61. Here's to you Tater

    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 hope this brings you peace.. As Jesus hung on the cross, two people hanging beside him. One told the other that they deserved to be there, but Jesus didn't. He believed in who Jesus was, and Jesus told him today, you will be with me in paradise. This guy didn't do "good works". HE BELIEVED! I hope you can rest in that.🤗

    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.

      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

    • @lgd1974

      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.

He worked SOOOO hard laying floors everyday until the day he died on mother's day 2019 at the age of 70. No matter how much he hurt, no matter how tired he was, he never stopped. He just got up everyday and went back out to the next job to provide for his family. Truth be told my daddy made Superman look like a wuss. Lol I miss you daddy

    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. 😢

      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

    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

    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.

    This song still breaks me every single time i hear it. My daddy grew up poor in Kentucky to an alcoholic mom and no dad in sight, He left by joining the army then he met my momma and settled down in a super small town in Alabama.. that man had alot of demons that followed him from Kentucky but he was the only person in my childhood that ever taught me about Jesus. He'd read me and my brother stories from the bible every night and as i got older he would never end a phone call without saying "dont forget to say your prayer tonight lulu" Alcohol and prescription medicine was his only downfall, the devil on his back. He died 2014, I still pray he found the Jesus he always talked about in the afterlife.

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.

      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
