  • Kristoffer "Kris" Kristofferson (born June 22, 1936) is an American musician, actor, and writer. He is known for hits such as "Me and Bobby McGee", "For the Good Times", "Sunday Mornin' Comin' Down", and "Help Me Make It Through the Night". Kristofferson is the sole writer of most of his songs, but he has collaborated with various other figures of the Nashville scene such as Shel Silverstein. (From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)

    MUSIC: Kris Kristofferson - "Why me Lord"
    Why me Lord what have I ever done
    to deserve even one of the pleasures I've known
    Tell me Lord what did I ever do
    That was worth loving you or the kindness you've shown
    Lord help me Jesus I've wasted it so help me Jesus I know what I am
    Now that I know that I've needed you so help me Jesus my soul's in your hand
    Try me Lord if you think there's a way
    I can try to repay all I've taken from you
    Maybe Lord I can show someone else what I've been through myself
    On my way back to you
    Lord help me Jesus...
    Lord help me Jesus...
    Jesus my soul's in your hand

    l heard this song, like 25 years ago and haven't heard til now. l always wondered who wrote it! A great song, great lyrics, and could be the anthem for all Jesus-loving Christians!

    Kris The Great. he was 99% better then all the others. Especially when you consider the fact he cut back on writing so he could be an actor. Bob Dylan and Willie Nelson have been writing songs since chords was discovered on a guitar. They still don't touch Kris though. Here's a few songs that He topped the charts with Country (Sunday Morning Coming Down, Help me make it through the night, For the good times, Stranger,) Rock (Me and Bobby Mgee) Gospel ( he cowrote One day at a time and wrote why me lord) and most of his songs he was not pushed or heard after he moved to Hollywood.

    Beautiful I love this song. In the early 70's I went to my grandpa's home when I walked in the door he was playing this song on a 45 . I found out later he had gotten saved. Praise the Lord. I think about that every time I hear this song. He went on and started teaching Sunday school at my uncles church. He died in 1986. My grandma who got saved in 1931 was the most wonderful faith filled Christian I ever knew she went home in 2003. When she got saved at first grandpa told her she needed to quit that stuff he wasn't going to be married to a holy roller. She told him If I quit it we will both go to he'll but if I stick with it one day you will get it too. He did but it took about 40 years. Glory there both now together with the Lord. Glory to God. Thank you Jesus my Lord.

    And the good Lord took care of him, because he was misdiagnosed as having Alzheimers, was treated for Alzeheimers, and recently found to be suffering from Lyme Disease. This is a miracle, really, because now properly treated, he is doing well, as far as I have heard. I'm sure, he is giving God the praise for it.

    I see the good of your choice
    The flaming 🔥 fire in your 💓 heart,
    You touched my soul,
    I hold it in my 💓 heart forever.
    Good morning Papa..

    My son daniel, just passed on august 27th, 2020....ive never known such incredible heartbreak...n sadness filled with emptyness. I thought my world had ended...n it did as i knew it. Ive survived thru many trajedys including a brain tumor n surgery of 16 hours to remove. I lost my daddy when i was only 91/2, most of my friends n many in family....but i always kept God in my heart, for i knew....he was the only thing still keeping me going as ive traveled the different pathways of my life, but losing my son...this is a pain unlike no other, my son also has God in his heart....n i know that is where he now is. ...journeying heaven n all its wonders. Ive always loved chris n the feelings that came with each song he sang, but this one was always alittle more special. Its been a few yrs since ivr heard it, but tonight , it jumped right back into my head n im thinkin this would be a beautifull song to play for daniels special dat comin up for we are having his day on the river....the place he called home, so, needed to waite til it got warm enough out for everyone to be to be warm n enjoy the outdoors on the st.crokx river....as we say our goodbyes n tell stories of his journey thru this world with us. This song is so perfect....especially with chris singing it.❣💯

    Papa,"I should like better nothing in all the world"? was the eager reply." But I must first ask you one question," can you hold your 💓 heart?"
    " I can be as silent as grave! " That is just as it should be, Yes🎈, I am
    delighted to hear it! Now papa, listen to me: I also can hold my 💓 heart, and therefore we prefer to keep our 💓 heart secret to our self. In conclusion, I will listen, you
    will listen, You are quite right and I
    am quite right. You are aware and l am aware we ought not to talk about our friends. Make it our own.
    Two sweet loving 💓 hearts 💓 are not to talk, I you are to be silent would the best and most sensible plan to keep silence ourselves.
    I will love you so much forever and ever and ever.l miss you so much Papa 🎎
