I want this played at my funeral, Im 80 now and know i dont have long on this earth, my Children are my life, i love them with everything that i have, everything this song says is what i feel for my Children, Thank u for this Beautiful Song ♥️
This song always makes me cry. And the Celine Dion song "Mama Good Bye's the saddest words" We played that at my dear grandmother's funeral. Music is like a healing window into the soul. I am a mama, I know exactly how you feel... Bless your dear heart. 💜
You were good to your parents to live that long! My momma always tells me you know if you were good to your parents, you live a long life.lol. It’s in the Bible. My momma got that stupid evil bio weapon of covid and her memory is not good right now because of it and her age has a lot to do with it too. The Dr at the hospital told us that. We are working with her to get better and regain her memory back. We just lost our daddy to the ugly evil disease of dementia in late October and now this happened to my momma. You take of yourself, hun. God bless you and have a blessed day. Big hugs from Tx. 💖❤️😀
You are amazing for having this perspective. Your future children will be lucky to have you as their mom because you will turn your own experience into something that will make them know they are fiercely loved. It might be a bumpy road at times and you won’t be perfect but the important thing will be to also love yourself and be kind to yourself knowing that you are doing your very best to take a wrong and make it into something right. All the best to you. 👍❤️✌️
To all those who still have Mother's: Love them hard while you have them! You WILL MISS all the things in this song! Dedicated to my Mama in Heaven! 😭 💔
My daughter just sent me this song.Wow!!! I love her so much. I'm so proud of her !!! She is a mother and a wife and she served her country. Love her with all of my heart!!!!!!!♥️
My brother just got married and this is the song him and my mom danced to. It was beautiful! My mom had 3 broken ribs at the wedding and she still danced with a beautiful smile!!
This brought me to tears. I lost my Mom unexpectedly recently... She was only 59... She was my best friend and my everything. I feel so lost in this big world without her.
I miss you, Mamma. It’s been a hard 36 years without you, but your words helped this man raise three strong productive young men. “A man is someone who takes care of his own, with his own two hands and will only be as good as the word he keeps, from the promises he makes”. I said those same words to my boys when they were growing up and they took them to heart just like I did. I wish you could have held them when they were babies and watched them grow up. I still talk about you to them all the time and they still gather wide eyed to hear the stories I learned from you. I hope you are proud of the job I did with them, because I sure am proud of the job you did with me. I love you Mamma
Such a sweet comment. I wish you’d been able to enjoy more time with your mamma. That’s a very long time to go without her but glad you had her for the time you did. She sounds like she was a great woman.
My mother is going on 87yrs old. I moved in with my parents and helped them as they got older. We lost my father almost 6yrs ago. My brother passed away too. I have lived with my mother for the past eight years and this song just took my breath away!!❤❤ Every word in it is so right on the money of the way I feel about her!!! It is an absolutely beautiful song and I love it!!!❤🤗❤
We played this at my Mums funeral, two years ago and I couldn't listen to it until last month! Actually it still makes me feel a little weepy but I think of the happy times! Wonderful song
Listened to it three times and cried harder each time. When a song moves a person to the depth of their soul, it’s pure, it’s art not just music. Thanks for this treasure.
This song touches home. If you still have your mama give her a hug and tell her how much you love her because she will not always be there. I lost my mama almost 4 months ago and I miss her everyday. She was my rock and my glue. Dedicated to my mama in heaven. I love you mama
Miss my MUM so much....been 10 years and I still long to pick up the phone and call her; her Christ-like example was my life!! I tried to appreciate her, but did not do enough. My consolation is that I will spend Eternity with her! I dedicated "Wind Beneath my Wings to her years ago....this song is better!! Thanks, Kell
In August of 2022, I shared seven songs with my Mom as I had told her that I wanted to sing a song whenever she passed away. I told her that I was in no way wanting her to die, but that it would be an honor to sing whenever that time came. Even as I drove towards her home in August 2022, I had no doubt that she would select this song. She passed away September 6, 2023, and unfortunately not only was I not allowed to sing this song, but in March of 2023, sitting close to her I also told her that I wanted to speak at her funeral with a family member crying as I told her that, and she said she would like that. As a Christian, she was one of my five pillars of faith examples that lived their lives before me as a little girl who was the foundation of my giving my life to God over 50 years ago. She passed away only five days after I had moved about three and a half hours away on September 6, 2023. Even though I was not allowed to do either, I will always remember how we were able to talk about her death between the two of us without anyone around in August 2022. I will always be grateful for the last 18 years of her life when I got to become her closest ally, and that God gave us such incredible funny moments together. This song is a very true representation of all the years I as a stay-at-home Mom, all she did to teach me how to juggle a full-time job (because she was a multi-talented elementary school secretary for several years before she was forced to retire due to her health) and still make sure that others in their greatest hour of need when a loved one had passed away to always have just the right comfort food to take and share while hugging and talking to so many of her friends during her 91 amazing years. Thanks, Sugarland, for this amazing song and the vocalization of a glorious voice from Jennifer Nettles.
I am somehow just finding this. I grew up singing Sugarland with my mom. I lost her a few months ago. This just tore me apart. Happy Mother's Day in heaven Mom ❤
I’m thankful to have two Moms. I have a bonus mamma who I’ve known since I was 6 years old. Always there for me when I need her. We have such an incredible bond
I yell at my mother sometimes.. now I won't do anything that's near yelling at her as long as she lives.. I love her with all my living heart I would die for her to live longer..✝️
I absolutely love this song. I was in my car the first time I heard it and cried my eyes out. I was lucky enough to have a mom who taught me love is love and was always there. Sadly I lost her 3 years ago but she is in my heart always. I have been blessed to be a mom to 2 incredible boys who I love more than life itself and I thank God each and every day for them. Thank you Sugerland for this wonderful song and expressing the love of a mother. Thanks Mom for all you did and for loving me.
I lost my mother in January and I haven't been the same ever since. Not a day goes by that I don't miss her or want to run into her room and tell her something or give her a hug. She was an amazing woman who helped me through so very much, and I love her so very much. Love your mother while you can, because, even though she won't be there forever, her love will be. R.I.P. Tammy Renee Glenn. (08/26/61-01/19/18)
I recently realized that my mama was not my enemy. She was tough on me for good reason. I'm 37 now with three kids of my own and I'm seeing my mama from different eyes. Love you and thank you mama for being there and helping me grow into the woman I am today. I will now take care and protect you like you did for me.
Mama passed away on 13/2/2021 since the minute she’s dead nothing is right or the same she’s will be missed forever she’s was kind generous sweet person... we loved her so much she completed us and we completed her like a puzzle ...
Today we buried my beautiful mum. I chose this song to play while her photos were playing on the screen. Thank you for such a beautiful song that sums my amazing mum up perfectly xo
For those who have been blessed to have a mother who loved you. Love her back. If you are blessed to become a mother yourself, I hope your children love you even when your older. Not all have had a mother to love us. Not all who have children love us like that. Even if you tried your best. Great song @sugarland #sugarland. You truly are bigger and better.
I wish they would! seems can't do anything right, my mother wants my girl as her own so she's parenting out of guilt bcuz of what she's done to me... She won too bcuz my daughter is someone I don't even know right now😓
I mean no disrespect;but make memories while she is alive;she loves that baby because she sees her little girl again;make amends or one day you will be alone
Omg I’m crying so much!!!! My mother sent me this song and I’m blessed to have her. This one is so true. Anyone who lost their mother I’m so sorry. Ones who are blessed to still Have their mother. TREAT HER LIKE A QUEEN! Amazing song
I love my mom she raised me as a single mom and she had a rough time because I was a wild child but I'm thankful she never gave up on me she drove to another state at 3 am one morning to get me out of a abusive realtionship and had work the next day and she did it bc she loved me she has been here for you more times then I can count she worked two jobs at one point to give me the things I needed and wanted I love you mom your my hero
Big hugs and lots of love to everyone without mothers and grandmothers today (Mother’s Day). Life is really never the same the moment you lose your mom.. it’s the toughest challenge I’ve ever faced... but their love will never die. ♥️ To those who still have moms, cherish them, love them, and never take them for granted.
I just got the same news 2 days ago. My mother’s dementia has rapidly worsened. I’m devastated. All I do is cry. I just can not imagine living in a world without my best friend.
Im struggling right now with my daughter in law pulling my son away from me. My very first grandchild is due any minute and she is being so selfish. She only wants my son, not the family he came from. So this song came to me today just when I needed a way to communicate with my son that I was the first woman to ever love him. I created and raised the man that she fell in love with. I should be valued not cut out. Thank you for giving me the words that I couldn't speak myself.
Put your faith and trust in the Lord Jesus Christ. He is more than able to heal your broken heart. Jesus died on the cross to pay for the punishment of our sins. He is able to help us recover from abuse, bullying, anger, hurt, emotional damage, and all kinds of bad things that happen or happened to us as children or young adults or any age. He is the gentle shepherd who will not force Himself on you. He is waitinf for you to open the door to your heart. Trust Him today as your personal Lord and Savior and see for yourself what He can do for you.
Loved dearly finally got her wish and my son gave it a chance. She became pregnant and all of a sudden she became the girl that you always hope your son never meets. I was left out of the reveal party for my grandchild was not invited to any shower's then the big wedding comes and I am nothing more that just another guest I have been excluded from any chance of knowing my granddaughter and now they just had a son and I'm promised that I will never see him because of a legal situation that I was tied to that was not my doings. I have never felt such pain in my life and I'm really shocked that my son allowes this to go on. Not only did I go through a nasty divorce after being married for 32 yrs . My mom dies with cancer And I loose my best friend of 16 yrs a Boston terrier named Atti-girl short for Attitude. She has no idea the pain I feel and I just have to leave them alone because I never want to cause them any problems.
My youngest son was my heart. I had such a bond with him that I just knew would never be altered. Well that girl that was his best friend all through school and that
I would not be the person I am today, the woman I am today, or the mother I to my 2 beautiful babies if it were not for the greatest woman I've been blessed to call my mom and my best friend. At 36 she is still someone I need and I would t have made it through some really dark.times recently without her unconditional love and support. I pray I can be half the mom she is for my kids and that one day they will be as proud of me as I am of my mom. 💜
The sad thing is you never really understand until she's gone! 😔 I'd give anything to be able to hug her, to hold her hand and tell her how much I love her! All I can do now is to talk to her picture! I love you mum!
Today marks 4 years since my mom passed. Music was always our go-to and still is for me, no matter the occasion I always turn the music to help me Express the way I'm feeling. And that's because of her. I hadn't heard this song Until just a few minutes ago and I truly believe I hadn't because she didn't want me to hear it yet. I guess I needed to hear it on the day that I needed her the most. I know that might sound crazy, but it helps to think that we still have that connection. The day that woman died part of me died with her. I lost my best friend that day. I I would give anything just to speak to her one more time, just to hear your voice, just to hear her say I love you one more time. I miss you so much Mama.
I dedicate this to my mother...shes battling stage 4 terminal cancer in hospice with month life expectancy... This song has so much meaning and hits home so bad...i pray she recovers and I dont loose her
Amen! Mother is a blessing that no one can replace and no one in this world takes the place of a mother in a child’s life. Because we learn that always keep a willing heart inside you and that gives you the happiness that no one gives you. She has the power to give everything without hesitation and nothing wants In return. Sometimes you just need a short line to let Mom know you’re thinking of her. Send a sweet text or send a voice mail to let her know how you feel.🙏☺️💖
I lost my mom 10/7/15. I never got to say good bye to her. The pain does get easier,but I still cry for I miss her and nothing quite feels right any more. There is always a big whole where she once was. As always I miss my mom this Mother`s Day! She was the best mother and friend a girl could have asked for. I ma thankful for the the family I do have though. But love,love, love you mom with all my heart.
I don't know where I would be without my mother. She is all I have ever known when everyone else turned their back on me she was always there for me and I wasn't an easy kid to raise. My mom is the strongest person I've ever known. ❤
Beautiful. This makes me think of my own mom who passed away this Feb 20th. I miss you mom. I won't be able to listen to this song without a hundred memories of my mom and me playing in my mind, that is a tribute to how beautiful and powerful a song this is. Thank you Sugarland.
I know the feeling... I lost my Mom recently too and it's just crushed me. It feels like no one knows this pain but there are so many of us going thru a similar thing I guess... It's just hard for me to think anyone else feels this empty. It's horrible.
Joshua Gorton God Bless you! Be and stay strong. You will always have her love with you everywhere you go. It's not easy loosing a mom and it's getting close to Mother's Day. I know the pain you're facing I recently lost my mom. I loved her son much. She was my rock. Prayers are sent to you from me. This is truly a great song for us to hear at this moment. God Bless and hope things will get better.
So sorry for your loss. My Mam died in my arms on November 10th,2010. Miss her so much.Life has not been the same since that sunny morning in the hospital when Mam took her last breath.
I miss my momma so very much This is her in a song, please don’t take your mommas for granted Because when she is gone, that’s it. Make those memories now
I cry everytime i hear this song. And i keep on listening to it. Hard part for me though, is when she says "as long as she's alive your not alone". My mom past 4 years ago, and I lost the most important person to me. But now I'm a mother and theres nothing i would do for my kids. I miss my mom like crazy, but i know she woyld be very proud of the person i have become
My ♥️, prayers and condolences go out to Snoop and his family. I lost my Mom on January 21, 2017. She lived in LA and I live here in S. Cali. Because I was sick, she made our family promise NOT to tell me she was sick. Every time I spoke to her, she made a point to sound upbeat and well. However, the day before she transitioned, my sister called me. She was hysterical and crying. She began to tell me how sick Mom was. She and the rest of the family were praying and asking God to heal her. And, she was asking Mom to please fight. Her last words were, 'I'M TRYING.' My sister broke down and called me. I was livid! I asked, why? Then, my sister told me Mom had been sick, but she made the family promise not to tell me. And then she said, the Dr. told her, Mom had Sepsis and that her organs were shutting down. There was nothing else they could do. He said, call the rest of your family so they can say their goodbyes. My sister was hysterical and I was in shock. To this day, I can't believe it. My sister said, Mom's no longer talking, but I'm going to put my cell to her ear so you can talk to her. I talked and begged her to hold on. I'll be there in the morning. But, I refused to say goodbye. My sister told me when I was talking to her, this big smile came across Mom's beautiful face 😇. After hearing my voice, she was transitioning. I believe she was waiting to hear my voice. My Mom and I, had a very special bond. I couldn't imagine this World without her. I visited my Mom once or twice every year. I spent every Christmas with her until I got sick. Ironically, I was getting my Drs. appts., tests, and shoulder surgery done. Because my sister and her husband, had to work. They couldn't continue taking off work and getting little to no sleep. They gave her excellent care and love. I was going to take over caring for her to give them a break. When I was talking to our Mom, begging her to fight. I was on my way to take care of her for as long as it was necessary. My Soulmate, was on the computer and cell trying to make reservations to Louisiana. For the FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE, in 40 yrs., there were NO FLIGHTS from S. CALI to LOUISIANA. I couldn't believe it!! Later that evening, AA called and said they had 1 flight, but it was a 12 hour red eye. I booked it. But, I arrived too late to say goodbye. I left at 10PM and she transitioned at 10AM the following morning. The exact time my plane landed. I never question God. He knew if I had been there, I wouldn't have survived. It took a long time to accept she was gone. That was the longest 12 hour flight of my life! My sisters and I, have never been the same. And, we never will. Losing our Mom, hurts as much today as it did the day she went home to be with the Lord. I wouldn't wish this pain on my worst enemy. There's no meds you can drink or enough alcohol you can drink to ease the pain. We grew up in Church. I love the Lord. Thru his grace, comfort, and a LOT of my prayers, is how I get thru one day at a time. May God give Snoop and his family the strength they will need to cope and endure with their Mom's passing. 🙏🏽😇👑🕊 R.I.H.P. ✝️ #PRAYING #FAITH
I’m so grateful for my mom. She’s truly the only person who loves me unconditionally. She had cancer last year but she’s doing well now and I can’t imagine what I’m going to do when it actually is her time.
I lost my mom a couple days ago on the 4 so I’m still grieving. It’s so hard and it was in expectantly. She did everything for us. She was our pillar in our family.
Literally bawling my eyes out after listening to this. Absolutely Beautiful. My mom passed away 2 years ago and it is still so hard to live without her. She was my Hero and she was Amazing.
Never heard this song until today my mom is still with us but disconnect from the world she has the final stages of dementia and is about to leave this world but whatever happens in the next life she will always be here and as long as shes alive physically or in my memory I will never be alone I love you mommy
I dedicate this song to the number one woman in my life: My wonderful mother who raised me to be a wonderful young lady. Momma, this song belongs to you.
I recently just lost my mom a little over eight months ago and this song isn't meaning alive in the sense of here on Earth. They're are speaking as long as she alive in your heart you've got each other anymore I know that you be true because my mom is forever since in my heart. So, regardless of where ones mother is, love her forever but enjoy the physical existence because nothing last forever here on Earth. But it does so long as she's in your heart. Happy Mother's Day to all you Mother's out there.
She is alive in your heart. There will be days you will miss her want her need her but she is there with you. It's been 12 years since my Mum passed. Not a day I don't wish she was here with me but she is in my heart
Mom I thank God everyday for you, no woman on earth can take your place, God Bless and keep you safe!!! I love you mom! Florence Johnson she lives in Hilliard Florida
Soon to be momma. I pray I am the mother my babygirl needs, Lord knows I'll try everyday with every ounce of my being to take care of her and give her everything she needs (and hopefully some of what she wants). I will always give her love. She's not even here yet and I already love her so much.
I Love My Mother.. Dale Ream Weston....God Gifted me an angel in the shape of my mother!! My whole life . I’m Going to be 61.....I wouldn’t have made it without Her , her Faith in God and her Faith in me ..Love forever To you Momma...Sherry
My dad died when i was 13 now my mother is dying from cancer... i will miss her...i love her...shes my home my hope my everything she was everything to me...I love you Mom...
Well I am the mother and this song touched my soul and gives me good inspiration, it came from my DAUGHTER she sent it to me this morning. It gives me goose bumps to matter that much to someone and for them to let me know it. This whole cha cha is nothing but GOOD THANKS RHAYNE!
I am only 64 but have end stage brain cancer. Although my daughter and I are very close my son and I have drifted apart because of religion. Please pray for Josiah because I need a hug before I die.
Coming from someone who has really never had my mother. Cherish your mother with all your heart. Mother's are very special lady's who also love their children unconditional no matter what. To my children, I love you very much. I do hope all that see's this will learn how not only to love your mother and children unconditional but other's as well. Remember the people who have no one. God bless.
I lost my mother in 2006 due to my stepfather who shot her nine times and shot me four times leaving us both for dead. Somehow by the grace of God I survived. But there's not a day that goes by that I don't think about and miss my mother.
I was lucky enough to share this with my mom. I played it while bathing her one night. We both were crying. She died January 7th 2022. I'll never get over her love her support and everything she overcame in her life. I always knew that no matter what, she loved me unconditionally. She'd knew the real me and loved me anyway. I love you Mom..........So much
I’m sorry to hear that, there’s nothing or no one like your mother. The song says when she’s alive your not alone but what about after. My mom randomly had a heart attack in the middle of the night may 2020 and here I am still getting sad listening to songs and it’s going on 2 years i dont think I will ever not miss her.
I want this played at my funeral, Im 80 now and know i dont have long on this earth, my Children are my life, i love them with everything that i have, everything this song says is what i feel for my Children, Thank u for this Beautiful Song ♥️
I hope you’re doing okay mama
This song always makes me cry.
And the Celine Dion song "Mama Good Bye's the saddest words"
We played that at my dear grandmother's funeral. Music is like a healing window into the soul.
I am a mama, I know exactly how you feel... Bless your dear heart. 💜
You were good to your parents to live that long! My momma always tells me you know if you were good to your parents, you live a long life.lol.
It’s in the Bible.
My momma got that stupid evil bio weapon of covid and her memory is not good right now because of it and her age has a lot to do with it too.
The Dr at the hospital told us that. We are working with her to get better and regain her memory back.
We just lost our daddy to the ugly evil disease of dementia in late October and now this happened to my momma.
You take of yourself, hun.
God bless you and have a blessed day.
Big hugs from Tx. 💖❤️😀
Tell your children ❤️
@@jedipanda333
i lesbian you're doing okay Justin
My mama decided to not be apart of my life when I was young. But this song gives me hope to be the mother I never had for my kids someday💕
You are amazing for having this perspective. Your future children will be lucky to have you as their mom because you will turn your own experience into something that will make them know they are fiercely loved. It might be a bumpy road at times and you won’t be perfect but the important thing will be to also love yourself and be kind to yourself knowing that you are doing your very best to take a wrong and make it into something right. All the best to you. 👍❤️✌️
@@sailinmo thank you so much❤️
It is amazing to be on the other end and watch a child grow in love ❤️.
I wish I had a mother like this.
Stay strong Baby, it wasn’t you, It was her, you will be a wonderful Mother 🌹
To all those who still have Mother's: Love them hard while you have them! You WILL MISS all the things in this song!
Dedicated to my Mama in Heaven!
😭 💔
Well said and every word is truth.
I agree. I just lost my mother, and this song breaks me every time I hear it!😭
@Kristina Gee I'm so sorry, my mom passed May 24th, of this year. I still feel so lost without her.😢
My Mum passed 4th May last year, this song breaks my heart 😭

💖
My brother just got married and this is the song him and my mom danced to. It was beautiful! My mom had 3 broken ribs at the wedding and she still danced with a beautiful smile!!
I'm dancing to this with my son at his wedding in September and know I'll cry my way through the whole song!
My daughter chose this song for our mother daughter dance at her wedding as well!! Definitely ugly cried! ❤
"As long as she's alive, you're not alone".
Yup, she's still watching me from the heaven. I mean, she's still alive in my heart. Love you, mom ❤️
My son got married on the 7th June 2021 , and this is the song he picked for us to dance to , I cried my eyes during the whole thing …..
.thank you …
This brought me to tears. I lost my Mom unexpectedly recently... She was only 59... She was my best friend and my everything. I feel so lost in this big world without her.
Everything will be ok
Johny Kidd Not for my Mom it won't be..
Nah she dead. But that's ok. You're ok. It's all ok.

Big hug to you blue frog when i read this!
*immediately starts crying when it said as long as she's alive you're not alone* I miss you so much mum 😭
Me too
🥺😔😭
I miss you, Mamma. It’s been a hard 36 years without you, but your words helped this man raise three strong productive young men. “A man is someone who takes care of his own, with his own two hands and will only be as good as the word he keeps, from the promises he makes”.
I said those same words to my boys when they were growing up and they took them to heart just like I did. I wish you could have held them when they were babies and watched them grow up. I still talk about you to them all the time and they still gather wide eyed to hear the stories I learned from you. I hope you are proud of the job I did with them, because I sure am proud of the job you did with me. I love you Mamma
Such a sweet comment. I wish you’d been able to enjoy more time with your mamma. That’s a very long time to go without her but glad you had her for the time you did. She sounds like she was a great woman.
My mother is going on 87yrs old. I moved in with my parents and helped them as they got older. We lost my father almost 6yrs ago. My brother passed away too. I have lived with my mother for the past eight years and this song just took my breath away!!❤❤ Every word in it is so right on the money of the way I feel about her!!! It is an absolutely beautiful song and I love it!!!❤🤗❤
No matter how many times I've watched this it still makes me cry every time.
We played this at my Mums funeral, two years ago and I couldn't listen to it until last month!
Actually it still makes me feel a little weepy but I think of the happy times!
Wonderful song
Love Your Mother Now because One Day might Be to Late❤🙏🏼
My mother has been gone 5 years, I've never felt more alone.
Listened to it three times and cried harder each time. When a song moves a person to the depth of their soul, it’s pure, it’s art not just music. Thanks for this treasure.
Same, and agree wholeheartedly. I sent this to my teenage (16) son after an argument we had, hoping he'll listen, and understand
This song touches home. If you still have your mama give her a hug and tell her how much you love her because she will not always be there. I lost my mama almost 4 months ago and I miss her everyday. She was my rock and my glue. Dedicated to my mama in heaven. I love you mama
Miss my MUM so much....been 10 years and I still long to pick up the phone and call her; her Christ-like example was my life!! I tried to appreciate her, but did not do enough. My consolation is that I will spend Eternity with her! I dedicated "Wind Beneath my Wings to her years ago....this song is better!! Thanks, Kell
In August of 2022, I shared seven songs with my Mom as I had told her that I wanted to sing a song whenever she passed away. I told her that I was in no way wanting her to die, but that it would be an honor to sing whenever that time came. Even as I drove towards her home in August 2022, I had no doubt that she would select this song. She passed away September 6, 2023, and unfortunately not only was I not allowed to sing this song, but in March of 2023, sitting close to her I also told her that I wanted to speak at her funeral with a family member crying as I told her that, and she said she would like that. As a Christian, she was one of my five pillars of faith examples that lived their lives before me as a little girl who was the foundation of my giving my life to God over 50 years ago. She passed away only five days after I had moved about three and a half hours away on September 6, 2023. Even though I was not allowed to do either, I will always remember how we were able to talk about her death between the two of us without anyone around in August 2022. I will always be grateful for the last 18 years of her life when I got to become her closest ally, and that God gave us such incredible funny moments together. This song is a very true representation of all the years I as a stay-at-home Mom, all she did to teach me how to juggle a full-time job (because she was a multi-talented elementary school secretary for several years before she was forced to retire due to her health) and still make sure that others in their greatest hour of need when a loved one had passed away to always have just the right comfort food to take and share while hugging and talking to so many of her friends during her 91 amazing years. Thanks, Sugarland, for this amazing song and the vocalization of a glorious voice from Jennifer Nettles.
Thanks for making me cry....this is exactly my mother. Blessed to have her.
Miss mom
😢
Lost my mother a year an a half ago . This song riddles me in tears
@@brandyblaske2925 me too sis
This is such a sweet song
I am somehow just finding this. I grew up singing Sugarland with my mom. I lost her a few months ago. This just tore me apart. Happy Mother's Day in heaven Mom ❤
Why am I just now hearing this song!!! Wow! I love it. Describes my late mother and my wife. Brought tears to my eyes.
I miss my grandma. She was my mother. Always there for me. She died a few days before my brothers wedding
I’m thankful to have two Moms. I have a bonus mamma who I’ve known since I was 6 years old. Always there for me when I need her. We have such an incredible bond
I yell at my mother sometimes.. now I won't do anything that's near yelling at her as long as she lives.. I love her with all my living heart I would die for her to live longer..✝️
Me too
I absolutely love this song. I was in my car the first time I heard it and cried my eyes out. I was lucky enough to have a mom who taught me love is love and was always there. Sadly I lost her 3 years ago but she is in my heart always. I have been blessed to be a mom to 2 incredible boys who I love more than life itself and I thank God each and every day for them. Thank you Sugerland for this wonderful song and expressing the love of a mother. Thanks Mom for all you did and for loving me.
I lost my mother in January and I haven't been the same ever since. Not a day goes by that I don't miss her or want to run into her room and tell her something or give her a hug. She was an amazing woman who helped me through so very much, and I love her so very much. Love your mother while you can, because, even though she won't be there forever, her love will be. R.I.P. Tammy Renee Glenn. (08/26/61-01/19/18)
I recently realized that my mama was not my enemy. She was tough on me for good reason. I'm 37 now with three kids of my own and I'm seeing my mama from different eyes. Love you and thank you mama for being there and helping me grow into the woman I am today. I will now take care and protect you like you did for me.
Hello Anna.. how are you doing?
Once you lose your mama your life is never the same ever.....
Mama passed away on 13/2/2021 since the minute she’s dead nothing is right or the same she’s will be missed forever she’s was kind generous sweet person...
we loved her so much she completed us and we completed her like a puzzle ...
My mom passed away in January and for us too nothing is the same. I miss her beyond words
Sorry for all your losses
My nanny died on October and this was the song at it 😊 ❤amen
Today we buried my beautiful mum. I chose this song to play while her photos were playing on the screen. Thank you for such a beautiful song that sums my amazing mum up perfectly xo
For those who have been blessed to have a mother who loved you. Love her back. If you are blessed to become a mother yourself, I hope your children love you even when your older. Not all have had a mother to love us. Not all who have children love us like that. Even if you tried your best. Great song @sugarland #sugarland. You truly are bigger and better.
princessncntrol G so true❤️
Sister;I feel love for you;May God fill your heart&life with love!
Joyce Howard thank you.
I wish they would! seems can't do anything right, my mother wants my girl as her own so she's parenting out of guilt bcuz of what she's done to me... She won too bcuz my daughter is someone I don't even know right now😓
I mean no disrespect;but make memories while she is alive;she loves that baby because she sees her little girl again;make amends or one day you will be alone
Omg I’m crying so much!!!! My mother sent me this song and I’m blessed to have her. This one is so true. Anyone who lost their mother I’m so sorry. Ones who are blessed to still
Have their mother. TREAT HER LIKE A QUEEN! Amazing song
I am crying so much
😍❤
I love my mom she raised me as a single mom and she had a rough time because I was a wild child but I'm thankful she never gave up on me she drove to another state at 3 am one morning to get me out of a abusive realtionship and had work the next day and she did it bc she loved me she has been here for you more times then I can count she worked two jobs at one point to give me the things I needed and wanted I love you mom your my hero
So so blessed to have my mother. I'm 58 and she is 79 yrs. young!!! 🌱🌹🤗😍😘
Big hugs and lots of love to everyone without mothers and grandmothers today (Mother’s Day). Life is really never the same the moment you lose your mom.. it’s the toughest challenge I’ve ever faced... but their love will never die. ♥️
To those who still have moms, cherish them, love them, and never take them for granted.
Just learned my mom is in late stage dementia. The slow goodbye. My memories of her will always live on❤️
I know I’m a stranger, but sending all the love in the world your way💜I know exactly where you are.
I just got the same news 2 days ago. My mother’s dementia has rapidly worsened. I’m devastated. All I do is cry. I just can not imagine living in a world without my best friend.
God, one prayer that I make to you is that you may give her mores years to live
So happy Sugarland is back. This is beautiful.
I miss my mother, who died this past January unexpectedly. And this hits so close to home.
Sorry. Hope you are doing okay.
Im struggling right now with my daughter in law pulling my son away from me. My very first grandchild is due any minute and she is being so selfish. She only wants my son, not the family he came from. So this song came to me today just when I needed a way to communicate with my son that I was the first woman to ever love him. I created and raised the man that she fell in love with. I should be valued not cut out. Thank you for giving me the words that I couldn't speak myself.
Put your faith and trust in the Lord Jesus Christ. He is more than able to heal your broken heart. Jesus died on the cross to pay for the punishment of our sins. He is able to help us recover from abuse, bullying, anger, hurt, emotional damage, and all kinds of bad things that happen or happened to us as children or young adults or any age. He is the gentle shepherd who will not force Himself on you. He is waitinf for you to open the door to your heart. Trust Him today as your personal Lord and Savior and see for yourself what He can do for you.
Loved dearly finally got her wish and my son gave it a chance. She became pregnant and all of a sudden she became the girl that you always hope your son never meets. I was left out of the reveal party for my grandchild was not invited to any shower's then the big wedding comes and I am nothing more that just another guest I have been excluded from any chance of knowing my granddaughter and now they just had a son and I'm promised that I will never see him because of a legal situation that I was tied to that was not my doings. I have never felt such pain in my life and I'm really shocked that my son allowes this to go on. Not only did I go through a nasty divorce after being married for 32 yrs . My mom dies with cancer And I loose my best friend of 16 yrs a Boston terrier named Atti-girl short for Attitude. She has no idea the pain I feel and I just have to leave them alone because I never want to cause them any problems.
My youngest son was my heart. I had such a bond with him that I just knew would never be altered. Well that girl that was his best friend all through school and that
I would not be the person I am today, the woman I am today, or the mother I to my 2 beautiful babies if it were not for the greatest woman I've been blessed to call my mom and my best friend. At 36 she is still someone I need and I would t have made it through some really dark.times recently without her unconditional love and support. I pray I can be half the mom she is for my kids and that one day they will be as proud of me as I am of my mom. 💜
The sad thing is you never really understand until she's gone! 😔
I'd give anything to be able to hug her, to hold her hand and tell her how much I love her!
All I can do now is to talk to her picture!
I love you mum!
Lost my mom in 2014 and this absolutely hit me in the face on XM radio today. I'd never heard it before. It's so much truth and so beautiful.
Today marks 4 years since my mom passed. Music was always our go-to and still is for me, no matter the occasion I always turn the music to help me Express the way I'm feeling. And that's because of her. I hadn't heard this song Until just a few minutes ago and I truly believe I hadn't because she didn't want me to hear it yet. I guess I needed to hear it on the day that I needed her the most. I know that might sound crazy, but it helps to think that we still have that connection. The day that woman died part of me died with her. I lost my best friend that day. I I would give anything just to speak to her one more time, just to hear your voice, just to hear her say I love you one more time. I miss you so much Mama.
I love you Mom. I miss you. Thank you so much for everything you did for us.
I love my mother so much! I don’t know what I’ll do when she goes home to the Lord
I dedicate this to my mother...shes battling stage 4 terminal cancer in hospice with month life expectancy... This song has so much meaning and hits home so bad...i pray she recovers and I dont loose her
GOD BLESS HER AND U!!!!
Hope you still have your momma around. Prayers for you all
@@sheilacooley6448 no unfortunately I lost her a week later on 02.28.21......hardest thing ever...i miss her like crazy..crying everyday
@@alinesimon3330 thank you...
I lost her on 02.28.21
WOW!!! I never thought there'd be a song about your mother that would touch the bottom of my soul. Thank you.
Amen! Mother is a blessing that no one can replace and no one in this world takes the place of a mother in a child’s life.
Because we learn that always keep a willing heart inside you and that gives you the happiness that no one gives you.
She has the power to give everything without hesitation and nothing wants In return.
Sometimes you just need a short line to let Mom know you’re thinking of her. Send a sweet text or send a voice mail to let her know how you feel.🙏☺️💖
I lost my mom 10/7/15. I never got to say good bye to her. The pain does get easier,but I still cry for I miss her and nothing quite feels right any more. There is always a big whole where she once was. As always I miss my mom this Mother`s Day! She was the best mother and friend a girl could have asked for. I ma thankful for the the family I do have though. But love,love, love you mom with all my heart.
I don't know where I would be without my mother. She is all I have ever known when everyone else turned their back on me she was always there for me and I wasn't an easy kid to raise. My mom is the strongest person I've ever known. ❤
Beautiful. This makes me think of my own mom who passed away this Feb 20th. I miss you mom. I won't be able to listen to this song without a hundred memories of my mom and me playing in my mind, that is a tribute to how beautiful and powerful a song this is. Thank you Sugarland.
I know the feeling... I lost my Mom recently too and it's just crushed me. It feels like no one knows this pain but there are so many of us going thru a similar thing I guess... It's just hard for me to think anyone else feels this empty. It's horrible.
Joshua Gorton God Bless you! Be and stay strong. You will always have her love with you everywhere you go. It's not easy loosing a mom and it's getting close to Mother's Day. I know the pain you're facing I recently lost my mom. I loved her son much. She was my rock. Prayers are sent to you from me. This is truly a great song for us to hear at this moment. God Bless and hope things will get better.
So sorry for your loss. My Mam died in my arms on November 10th,2010. Miss her so much.Life has not been the same since that sunny morning in the hospital when Mam took her last breath.
I miss my momma so very much
This is her in a song, please don’t take your mommas for granted
Because when she is gone, that’s it.
Make those memories now
Thank you mom for always being here for me I love you to the moon and back ❤❤❤
I cry everytime i hear this song. And i keep on listening to it. Hard part for me though, is when she says "as long as she's alive your not alone". My mom past 4 years ago, and I lost the most important person to me. But now I'm a mother and theres nothing i would do for my kids. I miss my mom like crazy, but i know she woyld be very proud of the person i have become
Amen, sista 🙏🏼❤️
Yes this song brings me comfort yes someone bad took her from me and my family she is my hero and always will be.
Its been 3yrs since I lost her. This is still a powerful song.
It's 1:30 in the morning and I started to listen this in bed and now im touched and I'm crying knowing I'm blessed to have a wonderful mother!
Love my mom im so grateful to have her in my life and god blessed me with a wonderful mom
“As long as she’s alive, your not alone” 🥺❤️🩹
I'm really glad some people have mothers like this. Not all of us do. I can't listen to this song because it brings up so much anger.
I wish my mother cared about me and my siblings like this but she left us all for a man when we were younger so we grew up in different foster homes:(
My ♥️, prayers and condolences go out to Snoop and his family. I lost my Mom on January 21, 2017. She lived in LA and I live here in S. Cali. Because I was sick, she made our family promise NOT to tell me she was sick. Every time I spoke to her, she made a point to sound upbeat and well. However, the day before she transitioned, my sister called me. She was hysterical and crying. She began to tell me how sick Mom was. She and the rest of the family were praying and asking God to heal her. And, she was asking Mom to please fight. Her last words were, 'I'M TRYING.' My sister broke down and called me. I was livid! I asked, why? Then, my sister told me Mom had been sick, but she made the family promise not to tell me. And then she said, the Dr. told her, Mom had Sepsis and that her organs were shutting down. There was nothing else they could do. He said, call the rest of your family so they can say their goodbyes. My sister was hysterical and I was in shock. To this day, I can't believe it. My sister said, Mom's no longer talking, but I'm going to put my cell to her ear so you can talk to her. I talked and begged her to hold on. I'll be there in the morning. But, I refused to say goodbye. My sister told me when I was talking to her, this big smile came across Mom's beautiful face 😇. After hearing my voice, she was transitioning. I believe she was waiting to hear my voice. My Mom and I, had a very special bond. I couldn't imagine this World without her. I visited my Mom once or twice every year. I spent every Christmas with her until I got sick. Ironically, I was getting my Drs. appts., tests, and shoulder surgery done. Because my sister and her husband, had to work. They couldn't continue taking off work and getting little to no sleep. They gave her excellent care and love. I was going to take over caring for her to give them a break. When I was talking to our Mom, begging her to fight. I was on my way to take care of her for as long as it was necessary. My Soulmate, was on the computer and cell trying to make reservations to Louisiana. For the FIRST TIME IN MY LIFE, in 40 yrs., there were NO FLIGHTS from S. CALI to LOUISIANA. I couldn't believe it!! Later that evening, AA called and said they had 1 flight, but it was a 12 hour red eye. I booked it. But, I arrived too late to say goodbye. I left at 10PM and she transitioned at 10AM the following morning. The exact time my plane landed. I never question God. He knew if I had been there, I wouldn't have survived. It took a long time to accept she was gone. That was the longest 12 hour flight of my life! My sisters and I, have never been the same. And, we never will. Losing our Mom, hurts as much today as it did the day she went home to be with the Lord. I wouldn't wish this pain on my worst enemy. There's no meds you can drink or enough alcohol you can drink to ease the pain. We grew up in Church. I love the Lord. Thru his grace, comfort, and a LOT of my prayers, is how I get thru one day at a time. May God give Snoop and his family the strength they will need to cope and endure with their Mom's passing. 🙏🏽😇👑🕊
R.I.H.P. ✝️

What a beautiful song! No one in your life will ever love you as your mother does❤️
I’m so grateful for my mom. She’s truly the only person who loves me unconditionally. She had cancer last year but she’s doing well now and I can’t imagine what I’m going to do when it actually is her time.
I lost my mom a couple days ago on the 4 so I’m still grieving. It’s so hard and it was in expectantly. She did everything for us. She was our pillar in our family.
Hello Kristin.. how are you doing?
Thank you. I lost my Mom last year and this really gave me joy. Time is short, love your Mom while you still have her.
Rest in Peace to my beautiful mother Tammy Hicks. 😇 I hope Heaven is good to you this mothers day.
What a great song. A mother's love is more precious than the wealth this world has to offer 💞💞💞
So very true.
Amen so true
My mother is my absolute favorite person on earth. Nobody could ever come close to the love I have for her.
I lost my mom 6 weeks ago... Unexpectedly and I feel homesick for her... Because she was the only true home I ever knew.
Every time I listen to this song I burst in tears I love my mother😍😭😁👩👧🙏❤ I will always pray for you guys
Literally bawling my eyes out after listening to this. Absolutely Beautiful. My mom passed away 2 years ago and it is still so hard to live without her. She was my Hero and she was Amazing.
I am so thankful my mama was there for me when the times had gotten hard for me
Great song😍
I have a great father couldn’t ask for a better one and love him more than myself but I wish I could’ve had them both
It will be 9 years since my mom passed on the 28th. This song hits me hard. ❤
Time doesn't heal all wounds, does it, becca.
Never heard this song until today my mom is still with us but disconnect from the world she has the final stages of dementia and is about to leave this world but whatever happens in the next life she will always be here and as long as shes alive physically or in my memory I will never be alone I love you mommy
I dedicate this song to the number one woman in my life: My wonderful mother who raised me to be a wonderful young lady. Momma, this song belongs to you.
I recently just lost my mom a little over eight months ago and this song isn't meaning alive in the sense of here on Earth. They're are speaking as long as she alive in your heart you've got each other anymore I know that you be true because my mom is forever since in my heart. So, regardless of where ones mother is, love her forever but enjoy the physical existence because nothing last forever here on Earth. But it does so long as she's in your heart. Happy Mother's Day to all you Mother's out there.
"As long as she's alive you're not alone"
That's deep and so true, I lost my mom 5 years ago and I've never felt more alone since she's be gone. 😔💔
Hope you're doing fine. Your mom loves you. Be strong. She may not be there physically to accompany you but she's always there in your heart :)
She is alive in your heart. There will be days you will miss her want her need her but she is there with you. It's been 12 years since my Mum passed. Not a day I don't wish she was here with me but she is in my heart
Mom I thank God everyday for you, no woman on earth can take your place, God Bless and keep you safe!!! I love you mom! Florence Johnson she lives in Hilliard Florida
My mom passed on sep 9 2018 I miss her her so much she was the best a real blessing she was 95 this song brought me to tears love it
My daughter just sent me this and now I'm all veclempt up here at work! Loves my girl. :)
Soon to be momma. I pray I am the mother my babygirl needs, Lord knows I'll try everyday with every ounce of my being to take care of her and give her everything she needs (and hopefully some of what she wants). I will always give her love. She's not even here yet and I already love her so much.
I Love My Mother.. Dale Ream Weston....God Gifted me an angel in the shape of my mother!! My whole life . I’m Going to be 61.....I wouldn’t have made it without Her , her Faith in God and her Faith in me ..Love forever To you Momma...Sherry
My dad died when i was 13 now my mother is dying from cancer... i will miss her...i love her...shes my home my hope my everything she was everything to me...I love you Mom...
My grandma died 2.21.2021. This was her. Word for word. 🤗
Well I am the mother and this song touched my soul and gives me good inspiration, it came from my DAUGHTER she sent it to me this morning. It gives me goose bumps to matter that much to someone and for them to let me know it. This whole cha cha is nothing but GOOD THANKS RHAYNE!
I lost my mum to cancer a few years ago and this song completely reminds me of how gentle and sweet she was ❤️
I am only 64 but have end stage brain cancer. Although my daughter and I are very close my son and I have drifted apart because of religion. Please pray for Josiah because I need a hug before I die.
Coming from someone who has really never had my mother. Cherish your mother with all your heart. Mother's are very special lady's who also love their children unconditional no matter what. To my children, I love you very much. I do hope all that see's this will learn how not only to love your mother and children unconditional but other's as well. Remember the people who have no one. God bless.
My girls surprised me with a dance to this song on Sunday at one of their weddings. This song will now and always hold a special place in my heart.
My momma left me a few years ago, but I hope I can feel this again some day.
Hello Charlie.. how are you doing?
I lost my mother in 2006 due to my stepfather who shot her nine times and shot me four times leaving us both for dead. Somehow by the grace of God I survived. But there's not a day that goes by that I don't think about and miss my mother.
1:26 and... I'm in tears! The 2 guys. Thank You Sugarland for this! "First thing she taught you was love is love."
Ok I’m gonna go sit in the corner & cry....this song is amazing
Beautiful song 💕😍😇
Mothers are miracles from heaven 💕
Not all of them
I was lucky enough to share this with my mom. I played it while bathing her one night. We both were crying. She died January 7th 2022. I'll never get over her love her support and everything she overcame in her life. I always knew that no matter what, she loved me unconditionally. She'd knew the real me and loved me anyway. I love you Mom..........So much
I’m sorry to hear that, there’s nothing or no one like your mother. The song says when she’s alive your not alone but what about after. My mom randomly had a heart attack in the middle of the night may 2020 and here I am still getting sad listening to songs and it’s going on 2 years i dont think I will ever not miss her.
Happy 81rst birthday mom!!❤
