Though I still have a father with me now, the last part of the song really struck a raw nerve with me as Catholic. It shows that regardless of what we do and say, Jesus is always waiting for us, to tell us that he love us this BIG
My son went through the same thing. Ghosted him 3 times. 1997, 2001,2023. He says it doesnt and never bothered him. But i feel otherwise, a mom just knows these things. It has always hurt me just as bad. Especially now in 2023, ghosted his 31 yr old son when he said this time he would keep contact.
My father, who was never in my life, just passed away yesterday and this song came to my mind. I cried so much, my entire heart out... Because even though my dad was never in my life, he was still in fact my dad and very much a part of me... So much of my heart yearned for the father I never had... Yet I know that I have a God who loved me all along, even though my real dad was never in my life. This song =
I met my dad for the first time when I was in high school. He met my son once when he was 6 months old in 2006 and then passed away the following year. We had a big fight before he died and I never got to tell him how I really felt. I still love him. He was my dad after all. Damn u daddy.....
This may be between a father and son, but is also could be for a father and daughter. My dad past away about three days ago. This song is exactly what happened between my father and I. Thing is I know before he died that I was never alone I knew God loved me and that Jesus died on the cross for me. The line about the man didn't blink but the little boy cried is exactly what happened three days ago. The woman I became didn't blink but the little girl cried for her daddy. I forgive you daddy.
I watched this video thousands of times going up.. and let me tell you.. NOTHING hits harder then when you have a son the same age as the boy in this video.. and you're a father now. Time flys, and I DONT want to go a single day without telling my boy I love him.
The first time I heard this song and saw this video it blew me away. I work as a child therapist. Almost all the kids I work with are young boys with mia fathers. Some have never met their father, and some are raised by grandparents with both biological parents missing. The viewpoints and emotions people express on these pages are so real. I can't read one and not think of some kid I work with. HEY ALL YOU MIA FATHERS, BE SOME PART OF YOUR KIDS LIFE!!
I have spent the last 30 plus years working in the field of foster care... this is one of the most powerful songs I have ever heard that describes the love a child has for his father and the love the Father has for everyone.
Bob Furr I hope you’ve had a chance to pick up my book Walk To Beautiful. It’s the entire life story - Not only my story but their story also. It will inspire you to the core. Thanks for your support. Jimmy Wayne
Bob Furr my grandparents foster 5 kids so there's 8 kids in the house and I'm one of them and we jsut got a baby I'm the grandchild but live with them it's hard but really amazing to do it we are in the middle of adopting one
This song has always meant a lot to me. Means even more now that my father died. I can’t count the amount of times I’ve listened to this song in the last 9 months!
Action Packed Wrestling I'm sorry to hear you lost your dad I hope things get a big easier for you it will never get better fully but just know there are people you have and can talk to about anything. I lost my step dad.
The guy who was supposed be my dad. I never meet and I am ok with that. He finally reached out to me in my early 40's. And I told him that I did not need him. And that I have daughter's of my own. And I am a great dad. And I did not need him.
I had never heard this song until today. I saw Jimmy Wayne in an interview. This artist's life story and song has touched me deeply. My eyes won't stop tearing. Awesome song!
my dad raised 8 kids and he loves my mom. so not all dads are jerks. we grew up poor, but that didn't stop us from attending college and loving our parents.
I get chills from this. Guys our Daddy LOVES us! Wow He Loves you!!! He loves you! He couldn't stand leaving you alone broken and hurt! He would sacrifice everything for you! Know you are beautiful and valuable and most of all loved beyond measure by our Father!
This is basically the resentment that I had towards my birth parents for many years. There’s times I feel so alone in this world but God is always with me.
Jimmy, I love everything about you, and have from the beginning. God's blessings & love & all good wishes to you & your family. Can't wait to read your book!
This is one of my favorite country songs, I love how it shows the love Jesus has for me and all the pain he went through to save me :( and to think that no matter what he loves us that much. I love him sooo much! I owe Jesus and God my life for what they have done for me, and I am so thankful, it makes me cry just thinking about it all Jesus went through to save me, and to know he didnt have to die for us but he did because he loves us. There is no greater love in the world! "No one has greater love than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends." John 15:13
The song is about our heavenly father that love us so this much ......that he died so we can live. And no matter how long its take he's waiting on us to realize we love him too.
I dont know how any father can walk out on his kids. I left mine with my ex last night to come to work and i already miss them like crazy. A child is the greatest blessing you can get. My boys are my world, there would be no me without them.
I will always believe in God the Father. But the man God chose for me and my brother,s and sister and my mom is my hero and always will be. He passed away in 2013 and my Mother in 2015 I miss them both every day. So thank you lord for looking out for me and my family.
Listened to Focus in the family this week and heard the story of Jimmy, really touched my life! Tumps up for Jimmy. Im sure God is using Jimmy for HIS Glory!!
my dad was never in my life, I hope one day he wakes up to realize that he's has a wonderful daughter, but i doubt that will ever happened, cause i just turned 23 last month, I have always wonder why he don't love me, but i realize that god loves me and so does my mom.
I can say this that everything in this song breaks my heart everything time I hear it but it's hard to have to creammate your father when you're his only little girl and only 22 years old. I got and wish nobody has to ever go through it at a young age like I did after he raised you almost your whole life.
To my daddy. I wish you knew how much I love you. I know you don't love me. I want you to know that no matter what. I will always love you. You are what I wanted my entire life. Not mom. YOU. I LOVE YOU DADDY
"I love you this much, and im waiting on you to make up your mind. Do you love me too? How ever long it takes, im never giving up. No matter what, i love you this much" ---- God
God never gives up on us no matter how long it takes for us to love Him in return. How i wish many people get to know this. It will change their lives in many ways...
Wow he turned it around on me...first itme ever hearing this song.... the way he does it makes u realize how much we neglect our Father.... really ddnt expect that..... Lord I Love You.
Wow how powerful what a beautiful soul thankyou Jimmy wayne for this song... God bless you i hope all who hear this songs know that they are loved.. Praise Jesus Gesu amens
This is exactly how I feel about my father who left me at the age of four. Even though I put on a brave face and would never tell any of my siblings or my mother,but I still wish he loved me. However,his leaving me at a young age has helped me to realize what's important in my life. I will never do what he did and that is why this time next year I'll be married to a great girl and taking care of a daughter not of my own blood though we intend on having children of our own.
Awesome song that touches even those that had/have a fathers in their lives. As I my father did not have a father he was not the best, but he tried in his own way. Having said this, when I had my own children I made sure that I just didn't try, but succeeded and with God's blessings that is just what I did.
Reminds me... of a time, not so long ago Now, living alone, I should not be hearing voices in the middle of the night, right? One night, as I lay in bed after having cried myself to sleep, I was awakened by this faint little voice, that kept saying, "I love you thiiiiiiis much". Heart pounding, I follow the sound into my daughter's old bedroom where I had this little white teddy bear on the bed. If you squeeze with both hands, really hard on his tummy, his arms spread wide open and says, I love you thiiiiiiiiiis much. But...... nobody was touching him, nobody was squeezing his tummy. God knew I needed to hear someone say those words to me ... just like this morning after Jimmy, you posted this on twitter and facebook. Love love love you! Blessings to you this Easter.
I cried everytime I listen to this video. I feel so sorry for my son that his dad refuse to be in his life because I refuse to be with him. I even send a copy of the song to him. I want him to see how it is affecting our son but still he refuses.
Sometimes i wander if my real dad care of me he didnt want nothing do with my brother i always thought did he care for us that song good song cause we know in our father god and lord jesus loved us verymuch
A thought I’ve been feeling since my Dad passed fifteen months after my Mom, I never had the truest friends like they were to me and I’m pretty much alone. Hearing those lyrics about never giving up, I realize that is the Lord talking and his patience to return all his children back to him is as great as my parents! Still not there yet to speak the truth and say maybe more, but I hope they find the rest and love that God has had in store for them all along. 🙏🏻
this one opens up the door to the little girl in me that desired only love from her dad but got nothing even after he died and she only had God in the end to love her.
I have a younger brother who has three kids. They are ages 8 6 & 1 year old he has been in and out of prison for most of their lives and the youngest one is being put up for adoption while the other two are being raised by their grandmother. The other day my oldest nephew the 8 year old wrote his daddy a letter telling him that he still loves him and everything but he does not like it when he does bad things to send him to prison. When I heard that it broke my heart. He is in jail now.
This is such a powerful song knowing I have a son whose father don't love or want him I hate seeing children like mine go thru something like this knowing they wash wanted by someone but my son will always know mommy always loved him and always wants him raising him alone was the best decision I made
yes. it makes me feel shitty cause I'm too stupid to realize that my Biological "Fathers" gf is trying to be there for me, & I call her "Mama" but yet I can't make up my own mind. I'm almost 21 & she's 23-25. I just have a hard time trying to accept the fact that she's there for me. This song makes me feel like shit for that reason. I'm the 1 who needs to make up his mind. She is a Cincinnati Bengals Cheerleader & I'm a Pittsburgh Steelers Fan, so it's not easy to let someone from the rival stall help u. She's a Steelers fan like me, but associates with the Cincinnati Bengals
as a father I could never my girls. they are my world and there is no measurement how much I love them. It hurts me to read these comments how the father left their kids. I don't understand how someone can do that to innocent kids. I'm sry you guys had to go through that
He can't remember The times that he thought Does my daddy love me? Probably not That didn't stop him From wishing that he did Didn't keep him from wanting Or worshipping him He guesses he saw him About once a year He could still feel the way he felt Standing in tears Stretching his arms out As far as they'd go Whispering daddy I want you to know [Chorus:] I love you this much And i'm waiting on you To make up your mind Do you love me too? How ever long it takes I'm never giving up no matter what I love you this much He grew to hate him for what he had done 'cause what kind of father Could do that to his son? He said 'damn you daddy' The day that he died The man didn't blink But the little boy cried [Chorus:] I love you this much And i'm waiting on you To make up your mind Do you love me too? How ever long it takes I'm never giving up no matter what I love you this much Half way through the service While the choir sang a hymn He looked up above the preacher And he sat and stared at him He said 'forgive me father' When he realized That he hadn't been unloved Or alone all his life His arms were stretched out As far as they'd go Nailed to the cross For the whole world to know [Chorus:] I love you this much And i'm waiting on you To make up your mind Do you love me too? How ever long it takes I'm never giving up no matter what I love you this much
The Greatest Man in History… Jesus; Had no servants, yet they called Him Master. Had no degree, yet they called Him Teacher. Had no medicines, yet they called Him Healer. He had no army, yet kings feared Him. He won no military battles, yet He conquered the world. He did not live in a castle, yet they called Him Lord, He ruled no nations, yet they called Him King, He committed no crime, yet they crucified Him. He was buried in a tomb, yet He lives today.
I still remember my step son sending me a birthday card. When i opened the card i broke in to tears when two little arm's popped out with those very words. Since then he's only called me "DAD". I never thought i had it in me to be one.
Makes me think of my dad. Now hes gone and ill never get the answers i need. I do love him so much an atleast now i know he loves me. He made sure he told me before he died. Rip daddy i love u.
This song hits so hard as a child of abandoned parents. And my on and off again relationship with Jesus. At 35 I still have abandonment issues with my parents. I know know more then ever that my father Jesus has been waiting to love me my hole life.
Dad I know you used to beat me and i know that you think of me sometimes and I was wishing that I can see you again one day. You meant everything to me. Me and you used to be like peanut butter and jelly. what happened? I miss you daddy! And love you with all my heart!!
I'm not saying this because I want people to like I'm just saying it because it's true and I want to I love Jesus and God also Idk my dad walked out on and divorced my mom a note when I was a baby I dk if I love him this much he don't me my brother never tried to reach out to us but I'm ok with it I gave up on that a longtime ago Jesus was so Brave for sacrificing himself being nailed to the cross and wiped for us to be alive also did my daddy love me probably not to walk out my mom just a note divorcing her he's a coward I think I dk I'll miss him be sad he dies my mom told me one time that I would I wanna one day be a good dad I try to with my Stepdaughter but wanna be a good dad to biological kid dc son or daughter as long as their healthy
I have the best relationship out there with my dad, but this song and Jimmy Wayne? Absolutely amazing in every way. Around the time Paper Angels hit the air I got my first job and now it’s my favorite tradition. God bless Jimmy Wayne!
he visited my school today (when I posted this comment) he played this song and a different song then after that he talked about how his parents were bad when he was young and they left him on the road because they were going across the state getting everything for free illegally they left him in Florida and a bunch of stuff happened then at the end of his motivation speech he said when he was in school he made horrible rap song then an 8th grader from the front row got on stage with jimmy and freestyle rapped and he killed it (I go to SMS middle North Carolina
I always had my dad but didn't have my mom but the day my fence passed and I felt like I really was alone I open up one of my fence bibles then this song played on the radio it's when I decided to start going to church again this song help me get through the hardest thing I ever had to do cromartie the love of my life before we even got to be married
It's a good song, but have you ever heard the phrase. "Don't criticize what you can't understand!" My old man messed up big time. However, after him telling me about the b.s. he went through as a kid. It makes you open your mind to understand the truth behind the situation. In others words if your parent's grew up in a dysfunctional family you are likely to grow up in a dysfunctional household.
In my head a part of me never stops being the kid in this video down to the core. I’m at the point that I’m too old now to hate my dad and feel some type of way because of what my mom wants me to feel. I’m my own person I forgive you Dad just hearing from you is ok I don’t want to hold grudges anymore. You have to accept others for who they are not who you want them to be.
This song brings so much memories from my childhood I would literally wake up in the middle of the night cry for my dad. I never saw him growing up but I saw him last year it hurt cus he stole from my brother. I hate you so much daddy but I love you more than you could ever know... 💕daddy if you could only feel the pain you gave to my brother and me
Just by watching this video, I can relate to this; which is why i'm diffrent from all the guys at school b/c i didn't have a father figure to teach me things and stuff. If i there is one thing I want to do in this life, it's to help all those children who went through the same thing I did and let them know that they are loved and they are not alone.
i love/hate this song makes me cry everytime. it reminds me of my dad & me. i hate talking about my dad because my 3 older brothers have completly given up on him & everytime i go to give up on him he does something that makes me think maybe theres hope
I wish I could know who my father is,I dont blame him for not being in my life...I blame my mother,she has told a million stories to everyone But ME,about my dad,and I have asked her about these stories that my friends have told me & she has told me that they are lying,and I have told her countless times that shes lying since,they know something & I dont...But I do know one day I will know my father know I get to heaven,but then it wil be too late!! Also Ive got our heavenly father....
I’m not a religious person at all, but the part where he realizes that he wasn’t alone his whole life and that God always loved him always made me tear up.
In memory of my father who died in 1999 at age 62. I loved you so much but always wondered did you love me back. I'll never know. I do forgive you for all your transgressions and hope one day to see you in heaven.
He can't remember the times that he thought Does my daddy love me? Probably not But that didn't stop him from wishing that he did Didn't keep him from wanting or worshiping him He guesses he saw him 'bout once a year He could still feel the way he felt Standing in tears Stretching his arms out as far as they'd go And whispering daddy, I want you to know I love you this much and I'm waiting on you To make up your mind, do you love me too? However long it takes I'm never giving up No matter what, I love you this much He grew to hate him for what he had done 'Cause what kind of father, could do that to his son He said, "damn you daddy", the day that he died The man didn't blink, but the little boy cried I love you this much and I'm waiting on you To make up your mind, do you love me too? However long it takes I'm never giving up No matter what, I love you this much Half way through the service While the choir sang a hymn He looked up above the preacher And he sat and stared at him He said, "Forgive me Father" When he realized That he hadn't been unloved or alone all his life His arms were stretched out as far as they'd go Nailed to the cross, for the whole world to know I love you this much and I'm waiting on you To make up your mind, do you love me too? However long it takes I'm never giving up No matter what, I love you this much
Though I still have a father with me now, the last part of the song really struck a raw nerve with me as Catholic. It shows that regardless of what we do and say, Jesus is always waiting for us, to tell us that he love us this BIG
My son went through the same thing. Ghosted him 3 times. 1997, 2001,2023. He says it doesnt and never bothered him. But i feel otherwise, a mom just knows these things. It has always hurt me just as bad. Especially now in 2023, ghosted his 31 yr old son when he said this time he would keep contact.
My father, who was never in my life, just passed away yesterday and this song came to my mind. I cried so much, my entire heart out... Because even though my dad was never in my life, he was still in fact my dad and very much a part of me... So much of my heart yearned for the father I never had... Yet I know that I have a God who loved me all along, even though my real dad was never in my life. This song =
I know how you fell my father was never in my life either and he passed away when I was in my 20's but I have a God in heaven who loves me a lot.
I met my dad for the first time when I was in high school. He met my son once when he was 6 months old in 2006 and then passed away the following year. We had a big fight before he died and I never got to tell him how I really felt. I still love him. He was my dad after all. Damn u daddy.....
My dad is still alive and all but we never had a close relationship until last year

I can relate
This may be between a father and son, but is also could be for a father and daughter. My dad past away about three days ago. This song is exactly what happened between my father and I.

The line about the man didn't blink but the little boy cried is exactly what happened three days ago. The woman I became didn't blink but the little girl cried for her daddy. I forgive you daddy.
This was the first song to ever make me cry and it does the same thing even today. One of, if not the best Gospel song ever written in my opinion.
I watched this video thousands of times going up.. and let me tell you.. NOTHING hits harder then when you have a son the same age as the boy in this video.. and you're a father now. Time flys, and I DONT want to go a single day without telling my boy I love him.
The capability of a heart to forgive and love again is a gift from God!! Beautifully written and so relate able!! God Bless you!:)

Less than a minute in and i'm already tearing up. Every damn time. I may be agnostic but it is still a powerful piece.
This is just gorgeous Mr Wayne. Extraordinary. -Adele.

The song is about our heavenly father that love us so this much ......that he died so we can live. And no matter how long its take he's waiting on us to realize we love him too.
Amen! Praise Jesus!
I love the meaning of this song it took me a while to realize the sacrifice christ made for us
😰😰😰
I dont know how any father can walk out on his kids. I left mine with my ex last night to come to work and i already miss them like crazy. A child is the greatest blessing you can get. My boys are my world, there would be no me without them.
Such a great song from the great 1990s of country music ! God bless you Jimmy for sharing this great song!!
I will always believe in God the Father. But the man God chose for me and my brother,s and sister and my mom is my hero and always will be. He passed away in 2013 and my Mother in 2015 I miss them both every day. So thank you lord for looking out for me and my family.
Tears are streaming down my face... I had never looked at it that way. Thank You, Jesus for what you did.
Im so glad you see what Jesus has done for you :) and how much he loves you! God Bless
I cried too
You say it well Jimmy Wayne - A child's innocent love only wants to be "wanted"!
Listened to Focus in the family this week and heard the story of Jimmy, really touched my life! Tumps up for Jimmy. Im sure God is using Jimmy for HIS Glory!!
Nancy Porta Amen
this song shows how God loves us this much. so much that his son died on the cross to save us. that much.
Thank you for reminding me that when the people in this world hurt me...I AM always loved by The Lord. Amazing song.
"Suffer the little children to come unto me, and forbid them not: for of such is the kingdom of God"
What a powerful song! It has me in tears! Im currently reading his memoir.
my dad was never in my life, I hope one day he wakes up to realize that he's has a wonderful daughter, but i doubt that will ever happened, cause i just turned 23 last month, I have always wonder why he don't love me, but i realize that god loves me and so does my mom.
I can say this that everything in this song breaks my heart everything time I hear it but it's hard to have to creammate your father when you're his only little girl and only 22 years old. I got and wish nobody has to ever go through it at a young age like I did after he raised you almost your whole life.
Thanks 💓
Thank you Jesus❣
To my daddy. I wish you knew how much I love you. I know you don't love me. I want you to know that no matter what. I will always love you. You are what I wanted my entire life. Not mom. YOU. I LOVE YOU DADDY
This song reminds me of my pepaw. Ever-patient with me and my never-ending questions.I miss you Pepaw, rip-2/14/09

What a beautiful song!!!
I cried everytime I listen to this video. I feel so sorry for my son that his dad refuse to be in his life because I refuse to be with him. I even send a copy of the song to him. I want him to see how it is affecting our son but still he refuses.
wow what a beautiful song by a gorgeous man and a vioce unbelievable so great !
Forgot about this song! So sad, but also sweet and reassuring about the Father in heaven.
Sometimes i wander if my real dad care of me he didnt want nothing do with my brother i always thought did he care for us that song good song cause we know in our father god and lord jesus loved us verymuch
A thought I’ve been feeling since my Dad passed fifteen months after my Mom, I never had the truest friends like they were to me and I’m pretty much alone. Hearing those lyrics about never giving up, I realize that is the Lord talking and his patience to return all his children back to him is as great as my parents! Still not there yet to speak the truth and say maybe more, but I hope they find the rest and love that God has had in store for them all along. 🙏🏻
one of my all time faves right here.... such an inspirational song AND artist
this one opens up the door to the little girl in me that desired only love from her dad but got nothing even after he died and she only had God in the end to love her.
I think this song should be viewed as a big brother to Kelly pickler's 'I wonder.' Can I get an amen?
amen
Amen
+Joshua Brooks I agree

definitely, and Kelly Clarkson`s piece by piece.
I Will Always Love My Father No Matter What It Takes For Him To Love Me.
I have a younger brother who has three kids. They are ages 8 6 & 1 year old he has been in and out of prison for most of their lives and the youngest one is being put up for adoption while the other two are being raised by their grandmother. The other day my oldest nephew the 8 year old wrote his daddy a letter telling him that he still loves him and everything but he does not like it when he does bad things to send him to prison. When I heard that it broke my heart. He is in jail now.
COWGIRLBABY19841 I'm sorry!
This is such a powerful song knowing I have a son whose father don't love or want him I hate seeing children like mine go thru something like this knowing they wash wanted by someone but my son will always know mommy always loved him and always wants him raising him alone was the best decision I made
When I finally came to this realization, that I had never been alone, it changed my life.
Little lady your never alone, think about it,you have God and long distances friends you never met me.
Very right! When you figure out what love is it changes everything

Wonderful!
Lucky you
PSALMS 27:10........WHEN MY FATHER AND MOTHER HAVE FORSAKEN ME,THE LORD WILL TAKE ME IN
well i love you tttttttthhhhhhhhhhhhiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiissssssssssssssssssssssssssss much did anyone else cry cause i did😭
yes. it makes me feel shitty cause I'm too stupid to realize that my Biological "Fathers" gf is trying to be there for me, & I call her "Mama" but yet I can't make up my own mind. I'm almost 21 & she's 23-25. I just have a hard time trying to accept the fact that she's there for me. This song makes me feel like shit for that reason. I'm the 1 who needs to make up his mind. She is a Cincinnati Bengals Cheerleader & I'm a Pittsburgh Steelers Fan, so it's not easy to let someone from the rival stall help u. She's a Steelers fan like me, but associates with the Cincinnati Bengals
as a father I could never my girls. they are my world and there is no measurement how much I love them. It hurts me to read these comments how the father left their kids. I don't understand how someone can do that to innocent kids. I'm sry you guys had to go through that
Powerful! I think I might use this clip in my sermon this Sunday.
i know everything he has been Through because i was in 25 foster homes growing up and it was not a easy life for me growing up
Im crying, OMG

My uncle passed away and this song reminds me of him.
He can't remember
The times that he thought
Does my daddy love me?
Probably not
That didn't stop him
From wishing that he did
Didn't keep him from wanting
Or worshipping him
He guesses he saw him
About once a year
He could still feel the way he felt
Standing in tears
Stretching his arms out
As far as they'd go
Whispering daddy
I want you to know
[Chorus:]
I love you this much
And i'm waiting on you
To make up your mind
Do you love me too?
How ever long it takes
I'm never giving up no matter what
I love you this much
He grew to hate him for what he had done
'cause what kind of father
Could do that to his son?
He said 'damn you daddy'
The day that he died
The man didn't blink
But the little boy cried
[Chorus:]
I love you this much
And i'm waiting on you
To make up your mind
Do you love me too?
How ever long it takes
I'm never giving up no matter what
I love you this much
Half way through the service
While the choir sang a hymn
He looked up above the preacher
And he sat and stared at him
He said
'forgive me father'
When he realized
That he hadn't been unloved
Or alone all his life
His arms were stretched out
As far as they'd go
Nailed to the cross
For the whole world to know
[Chorus:]
I love you this much
And i'm waiting on you
To make up your mind
Do you love me too?
How ever long it takes
I'm never giving up no matter what
I love you this much
The Greatest Man in History… Jesus; Had no servants, yet they called Him Master. Had no degree, yet they called Him Teacher. Had no medicines, yet they called Him Healer. He had no army, yet kings feared Him. He won no military battles, yet He conquered the world. He did not live in a castle, yet they called Him Lord, He ruled no nations, yet they called Him King, He committed no crime, yet they crucified Him. He was buried in a tomb, yet He lives today.
I still remember my step son sending me a birthday card. When i opened the card i broke in to tears when two little arm's popped out with those very words. Since then he's only called me "DAD". I never thought i had it in me to be one.
Get's me every single time. I try to make sure my son never wonders if I love him.
Makes me think of my dad. Now hes gone and ill never get the answers i need. I do love him so much an atleast now i know he loves me. He made sure he told me before he died. Rip daddy i love u.
This song hits so hard as a child of abandoned parents. And my on and off again relationship with Jesus. At 35 I still have abandonment issues with my parents. I know know more then ever that my father Jesus has been waiting to love me my hole life.
Dad I know you used to beat me and i know that you think of me sometimes and I was wishing that I can see you again one day. You meant everything to me. Me and you used to be like peanut butter and jelly. what happened? I miss you daddy! And love you with all my heart!!
I'm not saying this because I want people to like I'm just saying it because it's true and I want to I love Jesus and God also Idk my dad walked out on and divorced my mom a note when I was a baby I dk if I love him this much he don't me my brother never tried to reach out to us but I'm ok with it I gave up on that a longtime ago Jesus was so Brave for sacrificing himself being nailed to the cross and wiped for us to be alive also did my daddy love me probably not to walk out my mom just a note divorcing her he's a coward I think I dk I'll miss him be sad he dies my mom told me one time that I would I wanna one day be a good dad I try to with my Stepdaughter but wanna be a good dad to biological kid dc son or daughter as long as their healthy
I have the best relationship out there with my dad, but this song and Jimmy Wayne? Absolutely amazing in every way. Around the time Paper Angels hit the air I got my first job and now it’s my favorite tradition. God bless Jimmy Wayne!
he visited my school today (when I posted this comment) he played this song and a different song then after that he talked about how his parents were bad when he was young and they left him on the road because they were going across the state getting everything for free illegally they left him in Florida and a bunch of stuff happened then at the end of his motivation speech he said when he was in school he made horrible rap song then an 8th grader from the front row got on stage with jimmy and freestyle rapped and he killed it (I go to SMS middle North Carolina
I went to SMS.. Statesville
I graduated from BCHS (Bessemer city nc) he visits all the time
Cool
I remember first listening to this in NZ at a church when Reggie Dabbs was the guess speaker
And that’s why I love you, Jimmy Wayne❤️
I cried even though I have a father I cant hold in the pain of others either
I always had my dad but didn't have my mom but the day my fence passed and I felt like I really was alone I open up one of my fence bibles then this song played on the radio it's when I decided to start going to church again this song help me get through the hardest thing I ever had to do cromartie the love of my life before we even got to be married
i love this video so much when i first whatched it i sat there crying and replaying it for an hour..God bless jimmy!!!!! x
i cant stop crying hearing this song oh lord i love my daddy this much
We are all loved by Jesus! Trust!!
It's a good song, but have you ever heard the phrase. "Don't criticize what you can't understand!" My old man messed up big time. However, after him telling me about the b.s. he went through as a kid. It makes you open your mind to understand the truth behind the situation. In others words if your parent's grew up in a dysfunctional family you are likely to grow up in a dysfunctional household.
Real talk. So we need to be more understanding with one another...
Even though I can't hear... the images or video just made me cried so much...
They should make a movie about jimmy Wayne I can picture kj Apa play him in a movie
Excellent song ❤️🙏🏻
Keep your faith and carreer on going Jimmy, cause you won one more fan!
Was 6 years old when this song came out. I'm 21 now and still love this song
The love everyone is seeking has already sought us.. Our Father God gave us his son, and his son gave us his life, so we can live as one with Him.
🙏
In my head a part of me never stops being the kid in this video down to the core. I’m at the point that I’m too old now to hate my dad and feel some type of way because of what my mom wants me to feel. I’m my own person I forgive you Dad just hearing from you is ok I don’t want to hold grudges anymore. You have to accept others for who they are not who you want them to be.
This song brings back memories. It's way too sad. I can't listen to it without tears.
Wow. That song was just what I needed to hear right now.
This song brings so much memories from my childhood I would literally wake up in the middle of the night cry for my dad. I never saw him growing up but I saw him last year it hurt cus he stole from my brother. I hate you so much daddy but I love you more than you could ever know... 💕daddy if you could only feel the pain you gave to my brother and me
i love you Parker Barlow this much and there is noone that will come between you and i cuz god has showen us that we are made for eachother
Just by watching this video, I can relate to this; which is why i'm diffrent from all the guys at school b/c i didn't have a father figure to teach me things and stuff. If i there is one thing I want to do in this life, it's to help all those children who went through the same thing I did and let them know that they are loved and they are not alone.
i love/hate this song makes me cry everytime. it reminds me of my dad & me. i hate talking about my dad because my 3 older brothers have completly given up on him & everytime i go to give up on him he does something that makes me think maybe theres hope
I wish I could know who my father is,I dont blame him for not being in my life...I blame my mother,she has told a million stories to everyone But ME,about my dad,and I have asked her about these stories that my friends have told me & she has told me that they are lying,and I have told her countless times that shes lying since,they know something & I dont...But I do know one day I will know my father know I get to heaven,but then it wil be too late!! Also Ive got our heavenly father....
My mother left my father 10 years ago, so this song means alot to me..
My dad died. This song makes me cry thinking about him.
I’m not a religious person at all, but the part where he realizes that he wasn’t alone his whole life and that God always loved him always made me tear up.
My dad never loved me he always wanted to drink and get high but my grandpa stepped up and raised me as I was his son I know god loves me
In memory of my father who died in 1999 at age 62. I loved you so much but always wondered did you love me back. I'll never know. I do forgive you for all your transgressions and hope one day to see you in heaven.
He can't remember the times that he thought
Does my daddy love me?
Probably not
But that didn't stop him from wishing that he did
Didn't keep him from wanting or worshiping him
He guesses he saw him 'bout once a year
He could still feel the way he felt
Standing in tears
Stretching his arms out as far as they'd go
And whispering daddy, I want you to know
I love you this much and I'm waiting on you
To make up your mind, do you love me too?
However long it takes
I'm never giving up
No matter what, I love you this much
He grew to hate him for what he had done
'Cause what kind of father, could do that to his son
He said, "damn you daddy", the day that he died
The man didn't blink, but the little boy cried
I love you this much and I'm waiting on you
To make up your mind, do you love me too?
However long it takes
I'm never giving up
No matter what, I love you this much
Half way through the service
While the choir sang a hymn
He looked up above the preacher
And he sat and stared at him
He said, "Forgive me Father"
When he realized
That he hadn't been unloved or alone all his life
His arms were stretched out as far as they'd go
Nailed to the cross, for the whole world to know
I love you this much and I'm waiting on you
To make up your mind, do you love me too?
However long it takes
I'm never giving up
No matter what, I love you this much
