I am too. I was a teenager when I first heard it and I sit down at the piano and played it, back in those days I only had to listen to the song one time and I could sit down and play now that I am 62 years old I'm out of practice
My wife had stage 4 colon cancer It was in the last stages. The doctors removed all of it I asked Jesus not to take her. He brought her back to me. He said my child I've got her. She's going to be ok. Trust me. And this song Has been stuck in my head
Amen! 1Peter 3:15 But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear:
I will pray for her my name is Debbie I'm going through my own little problems with my heart but I will pray for her take care and God bless and God is good he's great
Why Me Lord, I was Lost, I was abused when I was young, there was no one who loves me as much as you, thank you Jesus, Yes My Soul is in your Hands, I love you Lord, you gave me Love that is so true. Yes Lord Help me through this time I am here
breathe. be gentle with yourself. i know what you mean; life can be rough and downright disheartening, especially with everything going on right now. don't allow that feeling to grow; it isn't the truth. we are never alone. change the things you can that will make things better, and try not to get hung up on what you can't change; adapt. look for the things for which you are grateful, and do what you can to be of service to others- and i mean even just a smile to brighten someone else's day- and you might be surprised to find God is actually very close. i've had to remind myself of this very recently, too. be well. 💜
And I can't understand anyone who would refuse such an opportunity for Salvation and sharing their resurrection with JESUS CHRIST in the KINGDOM of Heaven...Amen!!!
Incredibly beautiful!! Praise Jesus! I have parkinson's disease but every morning I try and walk around outside as much as possible while praying and listening to this song on my phone.
I'm impressed with your Profile and personality, and I also admire your good sense of humor on here, I don't normally write in the comment section but I think you deserved this compliment, hope you don't mind us being good friends 🌹
Surely one of the most beautiful songs written and sung by kris kristopherson Thank you sir It gives me so much peace to listen to this song when I lay in bed with pain.
This song poses a question. We all need to ask ourselves. Jesus has given us so much including His life and His love. We need to acknowledge and show our appreciation for all that we have received.
my dad didnt like music, of any kind. about 6 years ago.....he heard this on the radio driving one day....and asked who it was. given dad doesnt have the technology bug in his later years, he was at the mercy of only listening for it on the radio. we played it one last time for him when we laid him to rest on the 13th of sept 2021. such a great song. for all that read this.....please....love your family while you can. as, every day that goes by, is a chance that you wont have the option to tomorrow. be well. be kind. love, and understand.......accept.
I look forward to the day I can hug this man for this beautiful song. It brings a tear to my eye every time I hear it. This song speaks to the many of us who were once lost and are now found. Yes I am a man and when I hear this song I cry because at one time I was in so much pain I wanted to end it all just to stop the pain. But one day, one glorious and eternal day, a day I will remember for all eternity, I asked God why he loved me, why he loved a wretch like me. And God answered me with these words..."I love you because you are mine." What beautiful words. I wasn't lost or alone or forgotten anymore. I was his child just as I was but he would not let me stay that way. He healed a broken man. A man who for 10 years thought about ending it all every day. So much pain, so much sorrow but God took this wretched orphan and adopted him for no other reason than he loved me. Now every day God is guiding me, transforming me and making me the true man he wants me to be. It's not an easy path but it's the right path. And he gives me the strength to continue. I can rejoice, yes I said rejoice, now because I know without any doubts I will see Jesus some day. Jesus is my Savior. Jesus will never leave me nor forsake me. Jesus' steadfast love endures forever.
❤I love your testimony! He is The Wounded Healer🙏🏼May The Lord continue to Bless You 🙏🏼. “They overcame by the blood of the lamb and the word of their testimony” See you in Heaven❤ Sir
I wouldn't be here today if it wasn't for this song playing at the right time and the right place, and I'm sure there are plenty of other folks that can say the same thing. Thank you Sir for being a vessel of Gods mercy.
Lord help my Mom, pleasee, Lord. Her soul is in your hands. I've wasted it Lord, but Lord I now know.... Forgive me Lord, I know what I am,,,, a sinner saved by your grace 🍃🙏🏾
Prayers and thanksgiving you had that many years with her, A mom and daughter should not be freinds, but we understood who was boss, we were friends she passed before covid. It is well with my soul.i 4ever miss her,
I read John 15:16 this morning where Jesus said “You did not choose Me, but I chose you.” And I asked Him.Why me Lord? And then I listened to this beautiful song and my soul was deeply moved.
Thanks for your love and support that has brought me this far, it has been a hard time for me going through this but your love and support keeps me going and standing strong in this difficult times. I do read your heartwarming comments and I truly appreciate all you’ve done for me throughout the years.
Deceived Christians think that they chose Jesus. True Christians know that God chose them and Jesus paid for their sins. Why does visible church preach that a lost soul has the ability to seek Jesus?
@@annA-fl8um Hey! That's very good to know, I just can't stop myself from listening to this songs anytime am alone! If I may ask which of all his songs is your favorite? Have a great day... Stay Safe
✨🥀✨ Beautiful song. Singing “Jehovah” instead of “Lord” probably would be too revolutionary for many Christians. But the fact is that while you use in this song the word “Lord” you don’t mean Jesus but his Father. Jesus’ Father’s Divine Name is usually not mentioned by Christians because it creates for them confusion in the context of Trinity but also in the context of Jehovah’s Witnesses activity and teaching. And they are reasoning that we still should have in use God’s Divane Name what we can see in the Hebrew Scriptures. Jesus was worshipping his Father. He was praying to Him and had full trust that he will manage thanks to Him to fulfill his will. The word “Trinity “ that doesn’t appear in the Bible took away God’s Divine Name from Sacred Scriptures: the Sacred Name which doesn’t exist only in the Hebrew Scriptures but also in the Greek Ones [New Testament]. At every place in New Testament where Jesus is reading (or make a quotation) from Scriptures we can see today as a substitution of the Divine Name “Jehovah” the word “Lord”. The word “Lord” can apply for Jesus, for his Father or even for someone who has higher position than you. At Luke 4: 16- 30 we can read as the following: / Do you like it ? / 16 “And he came to Nazʹa·reth,+ where he had been reared; and, according to his custom on the sabbath day, he entered into the synagogue,+ and he stood up to read. 17 So the scroll of the prophet Isaiah was handed him, and he opened the scroll and found the place where it was written: 18 “Jehovah’s* spirit+ is upon me, because he anointed* me to declare good news to the poor, he sent me forth to preach a release to the captives and a recovery of sight to the blind, to send the crushed ones away with a release,+ 19 to preach Jehovah’s* acceptable year.”+ 20 With that he rolled up the scroll, handed it back to the attendant and sat down; and the eyes of all in the synagogue were intently fixed upon him. 21 Then he started to say to them: “Today this scripture that YOU just heard* is fulfilled.”+ 22 And they all began to give favorable witness about him and to marvel at the winsome words+ proceeding out of his mouth, and they were saying: “This is a son of Joseph, is it not?”+ 23 At this he said to them: “No doubt YOU will apply this illustration* to me, ‘Physician,+ cure yourself; the things+ we heard as having happened in Ca·perʹna·um+ do also here in your home territory.’”+ 24 But he said: “Truly I tell YOU that no prophet is accepted in his home territory. 25 For instance, I tell YOU in truth, There were many widows in Israel in the days of E·liʹjah, when the heaven was shut up three years and six months, so that a great famine fell upon all the land,+ 26 yet E·liʹjah was sent to none of those [women], but only to Zarʹe·phath*+ in the land of Siʹdon to a widow. 27 Also, there were many lepers in Israel in the time of E·liʹsha the prophet, yet not one of them was cleansed, but Naʹa·man the man of Syria.”+ 28 Now all those hearing these things in the synagogue became filled with anger;+ 29 and they rose up and hurried him outside the city, and they led him to the brow of the mountain* upon which their city had been built, in order to throw him down headlong.+ 30 But he went through the midst of them and continued on his way.+” www.jw.org/en/library/bible/bi12/books/luke/4/

I am a Korean Christian. My grandfather came to believe in Jesus through an American missionary, became a pastor, and I live as a third generation pastor. I am always thankful for being saved through the blood of your mission. This song has been my favorite since I was in my 20s 35 years ago. I respect and love you

My dad was a singer. We didn't go to church much. Actually very rarely. But he loved to spread his love through singing, and would actually cry when he sang this song on our rare church visits. Allmost always, after he was done singing, the front of the church that was empty, became full!
@@davidhonest8435 Allot has changed in my life. New job. New hours. I was in a bad situation. I lost loved ones, challenging times for sure. But I have Jesus in my corner. I'll be okay.
One of the very best songs EVER written. It describes me totally. God in Heaven BLESS KRIS for sharing it with us ( ME)! Thank you, Thank you, Thank YOU !!!
This song touches my heart every time I hear it. I feel so undeserving at times of God’s love, but I know he’s always there for us. Thank you for this beautiful song
Jesus, Jesus Jesus! Sometimes that's all I can say, because I don't know how to pray the right way. I love the Lord Jesus with all my heart and soul and nothing can separate us from My Sweet Lord! He willingly was nailed to a tree, had nails piercing his hands and his feet, for no other reason then he loved us so! Do not let the dark side convince you that his blood wasn't enough to forgive every and all of your sins! There isn't a sin great enough to undo what our beautiful Savior did on Calvary!
This was my grandparents favorite song. They actually met Kris at Three Rivers Resort and he went down to their camper and played this song for them. Grandpa passed away in 2015 and we just had grandma’s service yesterday. Thank you Mister Kristofferson for giving them that wonderful memory!
@John Donohue Oh wow, May the Lord give you guidance and comfort under these difficult circumstances, May he also give you peace 🕊️, in your heart and mind, I know all too well how loosing a loved one feels, Myself, I just lost my baby sister the 3rd of this month, and it hasnt eased at all, I believe she is with Jesus, no more pain, sorrow, sadness, nothing negative, Its the same for your Grandma and loved ones... May God Bless You ✌🏻♥️🎵🙏🏻
DEAR MR.JOHN YOUR MESSAGE MADE ME CRY.YET MY HEART DOES REJOICE BECAUSE MY LIFE IS SO UPSIDE NOW W/ MY OWN FAMILY.BUT YOU KNOW WHAT.WE ALL ONLY HAVE TO SAY JESUS I NEED YOU & I WILL SERVE YOU EVERY DAY EVERY MINUTE REMAINING IN MY LIFE. I KNOW JESUS HAS BLESSED YOU.YOUR FRIEND 80 PLUS... N.C.STRONG.Lois Hill
How beautiful, Kris asks what he himself ever did, to deserve the love of our Lord Jesus Christ. We are each so important to our Lord. We don't have to be famous, beautiful, talented, successful...... Our Lord loves us equally, no matter what. How amazing this is, let us hold onto this through our lives, let us rely on this, let us marvel at our Lord's absolute love.
You're doing it wrong I'm pretty sure brother. He's supposed to live through you, not you living through him. He wouldn't want you to miss the opportunities he has given you brother.
John 3:16-17 says that "God so loved the world that he gave his only beggoten Son, so that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life. (17) For God sent his Son into the world not to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.

John 3:18-21 He who believes in Him is not judged; he who does not believe has been judged already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. This is the judgment, that the Light has come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the Light, for their deeds were evil. For everyone who does evil hates the Light, and does not come to the Light for fear that his deeds will be exposed. But he who practices the truth comes to the Light, so that his deeds may be manifested as having been wrought in God."
For those believers, upon awakening and turning in simply say "Thank You Jesus" Truly a heartfelt song sung by a true believer. Thank you Chris. This song has given hope to many.
I'm impressed with your Profile and personality, and I also admire your good sense of humor on here, I don't normally write in the comment section but I think you deserved this compliment, hope you don't mind us being good friends 🌹
I was at my lowest point I’ve ever been and was thinking about ending it, but this song came on the radio like a divine intervention I bawled my eyes out and strangely I felt better.
For God loved us so much He gave his only son to bear our sins, so that we could spend an eternity with Him. Make your life count. Do your best, and seek the Lord in everything you do. 🙌
A truly gut wrenching song if you listen carefully to the words. The worst hell is knowing you have made mistakes and wanting to fix them, but not knowing how to do it.
Kris, if you ever read this: You have ~"shown someone else what you've been through yourself on your way back to Him." I have a feeling that you've shown millions of us. THAT is a successful mission. Thank you from this one.
God loves us all so much guys, you can't even begin to understand how much he loves us and what he would do for us! Don't let past performance by demonic devils, cause you to believe that God isn't listening to every word you say and he is the strongest most underrated superpower in the world! Use him and love him for who he is and change your life
My grandpa just passed away from Covid-19 and my grandma is still fighting for her life trying to beat Covid-19. This song makes me think of them. I love you grandpa. Grandma, I still need you, so please don’t leave me.
I woke up this morning with this song going through my head. I don't know what I have done to deserve His love either. I have tried and I do love Jesus.
I've always loved this song. I know a man that was fighting Alzheimer's, he didn't even know his children any longer, but they played this song a few days before he died and he knew every word. Tears ran down his face as he sang. Beautiful moment!
If this is true dear you need to be collecting Royalties ,Kris Kristofferson was a great songwriter, but as far as I know hasn't written any other Christian orGospel songs...He does make himself out to be the writer of this song
+Eva Grossman ?? I never said he did write any other gospel songs? Just telling a beautiful memory regarding this song. He did however, write "Sunday morning coming down"
greeneyeslinz I had a similar experience while my wife was struggling with Alzheimer's. We continued to attend church and sit up front. Brunetta rarely sang or did so very softly because she always said she had a poor voice and couldn't hold a tune. The song leader announced "O, what a Savior." I was singing along enthusiastically and realized I could hear a voice to my left. I looked at Brunetta and realized she was singing on key with a beautiful voice. My family has always believed it was God's way of making up for her loss of regular speech. Rick

This song has "healing" powers for me. I was young, lost and without peace of mind. A female friend used to play this on her guitar so I could rest. I didn't know any better back then and I thought she wrote it. The name Jesus has healing powers for me.
This is such an amazing song! We all say "why me?" when bad things happen. We should be wondering that when good things happen. None of us do anything to deserve the many blessings that the good Lord bestows upon us.
To the man who doesn't think Kris is that great, try writing as many hits as he did for the caliber of stars who performed them. This man is an amazing artist.
Sandy Conley I agree! I've always loved Kris Kristofferson but this is the first time I've heard this. I was moved and impressed once again and reminded of how much I love and respect him as an artist. I'm glad I didn't see the comment you are referring to. I purposely will not look. I am tired of people who are incapable of appreciating great beauty. It is a quality that I have great difficulties dealing with. As Kris aptly expressed it "Lord help me Jesus" I certainly do in having to deal with people like this. :)
My heart is so broken over many things in my life but nothing can break my heart more then the times I let my Jesus down thanks Chris for this song .Reading the comments makes me realise there are so many people out there I can reach to
This was one of my mom‘s favorite songs. God bless her. I sure was truly the richest person in the world with the best parents guide gave me thank you, Lord for the family I have and had before you took some, but you still believe in God, whether he answers you the way you want or not love you, Lord and thank you so much for this song, truly enjoy it and always put a lump in my throat and tears in my eyes. I try to sing along God bless thank you love it using the microphone. I’m hoping all my words are correct. Thank you. God bless.
I try to start every morning with this song too remind of me the gifts I have wasted. And the promise of his GRACE, MERCY AND UNDYING LOVE FOR MY wrecked soul.
My grandmother, my rock, my everything.. the matriarch of my family. You passed away 2 years ago today and it hasn’t gotten any easier.. This was your favorite song, so here I am.
Gosh! Gosh! This song is so very beautiful, it will touch ur heart & im sure that we all knows that we need god in our lives! In our everyday lives cause he will never fail us!
I'm impressed with your Profile and personality, and I also admire your good sense of humor on here, I don't normally write in the comment section but I think you deserved this compliment, hope you don't mind us being good friends 🌹
When two or more are worshiping me together or speaking my name I am there with them. I'm sitting here on the couch on a rainy night with my better half,listening and praising him tonight. Can I get an Amen? Amen!
WoW God really loves you ,Amazing, He let you have her for 58years before taking her home.... May he comfort you always.🙏🙏 Keep on keeping on man, my heart goes out to you..✌🙏
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 lovin' you or the kindness you've shown Lord help me, Jesus, I've wasted it so Help me Jesus I know what I am But 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, I've wasted it so Help me Jesus I know what I am But now that I know that I've needed you so Help me, Jesus, my soul's in your hand Lord help me, Jesus, I've wasted it so Help me Jesus I know what I am But now that I know that I've needed you so Help me Jesus my souls in your hand Jesus, my soul's in your hand.
We'll see Kris when we get there thanks to the Godman ,precious Jesus based on what he said in his testimony about this song. He closed every show with this song... awesome!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
@@chronicthumb3163 Yes sir, going on three months. I am convinced the good Lord took that desire away from me to drink finally. I did have to hit rock bottom though. So I’m trying to climb out of a felony count involved in a hit-and-run. I had a pasture fence and then tried to back up on the road and got nailed with a hit-and-run. I’ve had about 1000 triggers, since March 14 but I’m still sober and I know it’s from divine intervention. Thanks for asking. I appreciate it.
I did have a relapse and that was really terrible it’s true whenever your relapse it gets worse but I’ve tried to put God as the most important thing in my life and I’m actually showing positive changes in my life finally. Thanks for asking even though I don’t know are you at still means a lot.
@@chronicthumb3163 Thank you again chronic thumb I appreciate the support and I’m proud of you also. Especially through Covid that is a testing ground for everybody’s weakness.
I knew this older guy that was my dads friend,,,wild and reckless but such a likable person always whistled this song and met a violet car crash that would take his life,,,following the hearse that day this song played from the funeral home to his resting spot,,,will always remember that day and how even a wild and reckless respected and loved that song and today 2021 I still love this and think back over periods of my life that I’m still here,,,praise the lord
Kris does this better than anyone not because he has the best voice, but because the words of the song came from his imagination....greatest song writer ever
Still listening 🎧 in 2024 to this beautiful song ❤🎉
I am too. I was a teenager when I first heard it and I sit down at the piano and played it, back in those days I only had to listen to the song one time and I could sit down and play now that I am 62 years old I'm out of practice
Me too! From April 1986 still listening to it and it’s May 2024! The Lord Be praised!
My wife had stage 4 colon cancer
It was in the last stages. The doctors removed all of it
I asked Jesus not to take her. He brought her back to me. He said my child I've got her. She's going to be ok. Trust me. And this song
Has been stuck in my head
Hallelujah!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Amen! 1Peter 3:15 But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts: and be ready always to give an answer to every man that asketh you a reason of the hope that is in you with meekness and fear:
I will pray for her my name is Debbie I'm going through my own little problems with my heart but I will pray for her take care and God bless and God is good he's great
Why Me Lord, I was Lost, I was abused when I was young, there was no one who loves me as much as you, thank you Jesus, Yes My Soul is in your Hands, I love you Lord, you gave me Love that is so true. Yes Lord Help me through this time I am here
Praise God the Father I hope that anybody that says this message will give it a thumbs up praise God for he is good
Love this song
@@bigmikecrawford5697 Ford is Jesus play Chris song
I am so grateful that my soul is in His Hands. Thank you ABBA!
Sometimes I feel like God gave up on me...
breathe. be gentle with yourself. i know what you mean; life can be rough and downright disheartening, especially with everything going on right now. don't allow that feeling to grow; it isn't the truth. we are never alone. change the things you can that will make things better, and try not to get hung up on what you can't change; adapt. look for the things for which you are grateful, and do what you can to be of service to others- and i mean even just a smile to brighten someone else's day- and you might be surprised to find God is actually very close. i've had to remind myself of this very recently, too.
be well. 💜
Lord help me Jesus, I’ve wasted this life that you’ve died and suffered for me. I am a wretched sinner. I know what I am. My Soul’s in your hand ❤
And I can't understand anyone who would refuse such an opportunity for Salvation and sharing their resurrection with JESUS CHRIST in the KINGDOM of Heaven...Amen!!!
Incredibly beautiful!! Praise Jesus! I have parkinson's disease but every morning I try and walk around outside as much as possible while praying and listening to this song on my phone.
My Brother one SWEET DAY You WON'T. YOU WILL BE PERFECT.KEEP HOLDING ON BROTHER. GOD'S GOT HIS PEOPLE.
I used to listen to this when I was 8 yrs old and I understood the meaning. It helped me forgive some people who hurt me.

Surely one of the most beautiful songs written and sung by kris kristopherson
Thank you sir
It gives me so much peace to listen to this song when I lay in bed with pain.
This song poses a question. We all need to ask ourselves. Jesus has given us so much including His life and His love. We need to acknowledge and show our appreciation for all that we have received.
The song is so beautiful I love it so much I don’t know what to say
I don't believe in Jesus at all and i love this song :)
@@Ignirium Good on you
my dad didnt like music, of any kind.
about 6 years ago.....he heard this on the radio driving one day....and asked who it was.
given dad doesnt have the technology bug in his later years, he was at the mercy of only listening for it on the radio.
we played it one last time for him when we laid him to rest on the 13th of sept 2021.
such a great song.
for all that read this.....please....love your family while you can.
as, every day that goes by, is a chance that you wont have the option to tomorrow.
be well.
be kind.
love, and understand.......accept.
Ty for this post, I was feeling sad N lost and I found this song N your post. Pls keep me in prayer. I'm so tired, im broken 😭😭😭😭

We are all tired .
That's why He let us hear this song in the very same cries.
Jesus love will heal all tired frim within . . . 🤲✝️❤
I look forward to the day I can hug this man for this beautiful song. It brings a tear to my eye every time I hear it. This song speaks to the many of us who were once lost and are now found. Yes I am a man and when I hear this song I cry because at one time I was in so much pain I wanted to end it all just to stop the pain. But one day, one glorious and eternal day, a day I will remember for all eternity, I asked God why he loved me, why he loved a wretch like me. And God answered me with these words..."I love you because you are mine." What beautiful words. I wasn't lost or alone or forgotten anymore. I was his child just as I was but he would not let me stay that way. He healed a broken man. A man who for 10 years thought about ending it all every day. So much pain, so much sorrow but God took this wretched orphan and adopted him for no other reason than he loved me. Now every day God is guiding me, transforming me and making me the true man he wants me to be. It's not an easy path but it's the right path. And he gives me the strength to continue. I can rejoice, yes I said rejoice, now because I know without any doubts I will see Jesus some day. Jesus is my Savior. Jesus will never leave me nor forsake me. Jesus' steadfast love endures forever.
Amen
Amen
I keep of listening to thus song especially when I'm down it gives me strength to keep going feeling GOD is around.
❤I love your testimony! He is The Wounded Healer🙏🏼May The Lord continue to Bless You 🙏🏼. “They overcame by the blood of the lamb and the word of their testimony” See you in Heaven❤ Sir
God bless you
This song is so fulfilling to the heart just like our lord jesus❤
This is one of my dad's favorite songs. My dad left us on August 7 2009. Every time I hear this song I cry like a baby. I Love You Dad.
I wouldn't be here today if it wasn't for this song playing at the right time and the right place, and I'm sure there are plenty of other folks that can say the same thing. Thank you Sir for being a vessel of Gods mercy.

Prayers and thanksgiving you had that many years with her, A mom and daughter should not be freinds, but we understood who was boss, we were friends she passed before covid. It is well with my soul.i 4ever miss her,
My dad passed away August 2020. He sang this song. We sang it at his viewing. Miss you HBO.
I read John 15:16 this morning where Jesus said “You did not choose Me, but I chose you.”
And I asked Him.Why me Lord?
And then I listened to this beautiful song and my soul was deeply moved.
Thanks for your love and support that has brought me this far, it has been a hard time for me going through this but your love and support keeps me going and standing strong in this difficult times. I do read your heartwarming comments and I truly appreciate all you’ve done for me throughout the years.
Deceived Christians think that they chose Jesus. True Christians know that God chose them and Jesus paid for their sins. Why does visible church preach that a lost soul has the ability to seek Jesus?
My mom passed away April 8th 2023 I had this sung at her service by one of her best friends,. I know she was so proud
That's my mom's birthday
My mom died Dec 23 2022 and this was the song she requested and was played.

✨🥀✨ Beautiful song. Singing “Jehovah” instead of “Lord” probably would be too revolutionary for many Christians. But the fact is that while you use in this song the word “Lord” you don’t mean Jesus but his Father. Jesus’ Father’s Divine Name is usually not mentioned by Christians because it creates for them confusion in the context of Trinity but also in the context of Jehovah’s Witnesses activity and teaching. And they are reasoning that we still should have in use God’s Divane Name what we can see in the Hebrew Scriptures. Jesus was worshipping his Father. He was praying to Him and had full trust that he will manage thanks to Him to fulfill his will. The word “Trinity “ that doesn’t appear in the Bible took away God’s Divine Name from Sacred Scriptures: the Sacred Name which doesn’t exist only in the Hebrew Scriptures but also in the Greek Ones [New Testament]. At every place in New Testament where Jesus is reading (or make a quotation) from Scriptures we can see today as a substitution of the Divine Name “Jehovah” the word “Lord”. The word “Lord” can apply for Jesus, for his Father or even for someone who has higher position than you. At Luke 4: 16- 30 we can read as the following:
/ Do you like it ? /
16 “And he came to Nazʹa·reth,+ where he had been reared; and, according to his custom on the sabbath day, he entered into the synagogue,+ and he stood up to read. 17 So the scroll of the prophet Isaiah was handed him, and he opened the scroll and found the place where it was written: 18 “Jehovah’s* spirit+ is upon me, because he anointed* me to declare good news to the poor, he sent me forth to preach a release to the captives and a recovery of sight to the blind, to send the crushed ones away with a release,+ 19 to preach Jehovah’s* acceptable year.”+ 20 With that he rolled up the scroll, handed it back to the attendant and sat down; and the eyes of all in the synagogue were intently fixed upon him. 21 Then he started to say to them: “Today this scripture that YOU just heard* is fulfilled.”+
22 And they all began to give favorable witness about him and to marvel at the winsome words+ proceeding out of his mouth, and they were saying: “This is a son of Joseph, is it not?”+ 23 At this he said to them: “No doubt YOU will apply this illustration* to me, ‘Physician,+ cure yourself; the things+ we heard as having happened in Ca·perʹna·um+ do also here in your home territory.’”+ 24 But he said: “Truly I tell YOU that no prophet is accepted in his home territory. 25 For instance, I tell YOU in truth, There were many widows in Israel in the days of E·liʹjah, when the heaven was shut up three years and six months, so that a great famine fell upon all the land,+ 26 yet E·liʹjah was sent to none of those [women], but only to Zarʹe·phath*+ in the land of Siʹdon to a widow. 27 Also, there were many lepers in Israel in the time of E·liʹsha the prophet, yet not one of them was cleansed, but Naʹa·man the man of Syria.”+ 28 Now all those hearing these things in the synagogue became filled with anger;+ 29 and they rose up and hurried him outside the city, and they led him to the brow of the mountain* upon which their city had been built, in order to throw him down headlong.+ 30 But he went through the midst of them and continued on his way.+”

My grandfather came to believe in Jesus through an American missionary, became a pastor, and I live as a third generation pastor.
I am always thankful for being saved through the blood of your mission.
This song has been my favorite since I was in my 20s 35 years ago.
I respect and love you
So beautiful how our Father Jesus seeks out his lil lambs across the earth. He’s so Amazing & worthy of Praise! ❤
For the person who thinks no one love's them jesus love's you more than you will ever know.
Just think about it. All Jesus asks in return is love and believe in Him. I believe and love Him with all my heart. This song is beautiful.

My dad was a singer. We didn't go to church much. Actually very rarely. But he loved to spread his love through singing, and would actually cry when he sang this song on our rare church visits. Allmost always, after he was done singing, the front of the church that was empty, became full!

@@nancyrobinson7764 Hello,how are you doing?
AMEN
Jesus, Jesus Jesus! Sometimes that's all I can say, because I don't know how to pray the right way. I love the Lord Jesus with all my heart and soul and nothing can separate us from My Sweet Lord! He willingly was nailed to a tree, had nails piercing his hands and his feet, for no other reason then he loved us so! Do not let the dark side convince you that his blood wasn't enough to forgive every and all of your sins! There isn't a sin great enough to undo what our beautiful
Savior did on Calvary!
There is no right or wrong way to pray. You just talk to Him and praise Him in your own words and way. Keep on sharing your life. You’re doing great
This was my grandparents favorite song. They actually met Kris at Three Rivers Resort and he went down to their camper and played this song for them. Grandpa passed away in 2015 and we just had grandma’s service yesterday. Thank you Mister Kristofferson for giving them that wonderful memory!
@John Donohue Oh wow, May the Lord give you guidance and comfort under these difficult circumstances, May he also give you peace 🕊️, in your heart and mind, I know all too well how loosing a loved one feels, Myself, I just lost my baby sister the 3rd of this month, and it hasnt eased at all, I believe she is with Jesus, no more pain, sorrow, sadness, nothing negative, Its the same for your Grandma and loved ones...

How beautiful, Kris asks what he himself ever did, to deserve the love of our Lord Jesus Christ.
We are each so important to our Lord.
We don't have to be famous, beautiful, talented, successful......
Our Lord loves us equally, no matter what.
How amazing this is, let us hold onto this through our lives, let us rely on this, let us marvel at our Lord's absolute love.
Giving My life to Jesus is all that counts....32years now I'll never regret it ever...Thank you Jesus....❤️😊
You're doing it wrong I'm pretty sure brother. He's supposed to live through you, not you living through him. He wouldn't want you to miss the opportunities he has given you brother.
Thinking of you dad😢. Happy Heavenly Father's day.❤

Agree but Johnny cash is cool too
John 3:16-17 says that "God so loved the world that he gave his only beggoten Son, so that whosoever believeth in him should not perish but have everlasting life. (17) For God sent his Son into the world not to condemn the world, but that the world through Him might be saved.

John 3:18-21
He who believes in Him is not judged; he who does not believe has been judged already, because he has not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. This is the judgment, that the Light has come into the world, and men loved the darkness rather than the Light, for their deeds were evil. For everyone who does evil hates the Light, and does not come to the Light for fear that his deeds will be exposed. But he who practices the truth comes to the Light, so that his deeds may be manifested as having been wrought in God."
Immeasurable Joy that I have found His light. I knocked, and He answered. 🙏❤️🙏

I've always been a believer but I tried everything except really surrender to Him. Now that I have, life is so much sweeter. Thanks again Jesus 😀
Don't worry life will bring you to your knees
I was at my lowest point I’ve ever been and was thinking about ending it, but this song came on the radio like a divine intervention I bawled my eyes out and strangely I felt better.
For God loved us so much He gave his only son to bear our sins, so that we could spend an eternity with Him. Make your life count. Do your best, and seek the Lord in everything you do. 🙌
🙏 Amen 🙏
I played this song at my husband's memorial service. He had got saved about a month before he passed away
So happy to hear this. God bless you.
Beautiful song I Believe that Kris got Saved that day in Church It doesn't get any better than than Praise the Lord
A truly gut wrenching song if you listen carefully to the words. The worst hell is knowing you have made mistakes and wanting to fix them, but not knowing how to do it.
😭 So true...
Kris, if you ever read this: You have ~"shown someone else what you've been through yourself on your way back to Him." I have a feeling that you've shown millions of us. THAT is a successful mission. Thank you from this one.
God loves us all so much guys, you can't even begin to understand how much he loves us and what he would do for us! Don't let past performance by demonic devils, cause you to believe that God isn't listening to every word you say and he is the strongest most underrated superpower in the world! Use him and love him for who he is and change your life
It's us who need to listen and ask for God's mercy.
My grandpa just passed away from Covid-19 and my grandma is still fighting for her life trying to beat Covid-19. This song makes me think of them. I love you grandpa. Grandma, I still need you, so please don’t leave me.

I woke up this morning singing this in my head, that’s what brought me here. Jesus Christ is King and Savior.

If this is true dear you need to be collecting Royalties ,Kris Kristofferson was a great songwriter, but as far as I know hasn't written any other Christian orGospel songs...He does make himself out to be the writer of this song
+Eva Grossman ?? I never said he did write any other gospel songs? Just telling a beautiful memory regarding this song. He did however, write "Sunday morning coming down"
+Eva Grossman Jesus was a Capricorn comes to mind real quick. Listen carefully to Sunday Morning Coming Down.

Brunetta rarely sang or did so very softly because she always said she had a poor voice and couldn't hold a tune. The song leader announced "O, what a Savior." I was singing along enthusiastically and realized I could hear a voice to my left. I looked at Brunetta and realized she was singing on key with a beautiful voice. My family has always believed it was God's way of making up for her loss of regular speech. Rick

Hello,how are you doing?
In my opinion this has to be the prettiest song ever written.
I have to put Amazing grace first but Kris does an amazing job ❤️😊
I agree
@@sillyoldfrog now more than ever pray..
✨🥀✨ Beautiful song. Singing “Jehovah” instead of “Lord” probably would be too revolutionary for many Christians. But the fact is that while you use in this song the word “Lord” you don’t mean Jesus but his Father. Jesus’ Father’s Divine Name is usually not mentioned by Christians because it creates for them confusion in the context of Trinity but also in the context of Jehovah’s Witnesses activity and teaching. And they are reasoning that we still should have in use God’s Divane Name what we can see in the Hebrew Scriptures. Jesus was worshipping his Father. He was praying to Him and had full trust that he will manage thanks to Him to fulfill his will. The word “Trinity “ that doesn’t appear in the Bible took away God’s Divine Name from Sacred Scriptures: the Sacred Name which doesn’t exist only in the Hebrew Scriptures but also in the Greek Ones [New Testament]. At every place in New Testament where Jesus is reading (or make a quotation) from Scriptures we can see today as a substitution of the Divine Name “Jehovah” the word “Lord”. The word “Lord” can apply for Jesus, for his Father or even for someone who has higher position than you. At Luke 4: 16- 30 we can read as the following:
/ Do you like it ? /
16 “And he came to Nazʹa·reth,+ where he had been reared; and, according to his custom on the sabbath day, he entered into the synagogue,+ and he stood up to read. 17 So the scroll of the prophet Isaiah was handed him, and he opened the scroll and found the place where it was written: 18 “Jehovah’s* spirit+ is upon me, because he anointed* me to declare good news to the poor, he sent me forth to preach a release to the captives and a recovery of sight to the blind, to send the crushed ones away with a release,+ 19 to preach Jehovah’s* acceptable year.”+ 20 With that he rolled up the scroll, handed it back to the attendant and sat down; and the eyes of all in the synagogue were intently fixed upon him. 21 Then he started to say to them: “Today this scripture that YOU just heard* is fulfilled.”+
22 And they all began to give favorable witness about him and to marvel at the winsome words+ proceeding out of his mouth, and they were saying: “This is a son of Joseph, is it not?”+ 23 At this he said to them: “No doubt YOU will apply this illustration* to me, ‘Physician,+ cure yourself; the things+ we heard as having happened in Ca·perʹna·um+ do also here in your home territory.’”+ 24 But he said: “Truly I tell YOU that no prophet is accepted in his home territory. 25 For instance, I tell YOU in truth, There were many widows in Israel in the days of E·liʹjah, when the heaven was shut up three years and six months, so that a great famine fell upon all the land,+ 26 yet E·liʹjah was sent to none of those [women], but only to Zarʹe·phath*+ in the land of Siʹdon to a widow. 27 Also, there were many lepers in Israel in the time of E·liʹsha the prophet, yet not one of them was cleansed, but Naʹa·man the man of Syria.”+ 28 Now all those hearing these things in the synagogue became filled with anger;+ 29 and they rose up and hurried him outside the city, and they led him to the brow of the mountain* upon which their city had been built, in order to throw him down headlong.+ 30 But he went through the midst of them and continued on his way.+”

Up there with the best of them 👍👍
This song has "healing" powers for me. I was young, lost and without peace of mind. A female friend used to play this on her guitar so I could rest. I didn't know any better back then and I thought she wrote it. The name Jesus has healing powers for me.
This song tore at my heart the first time I heard it,and now I can't get enough of it
I thank God for this song.
This is such an amazing song! We all say "why me?" when bad things happen. We should be wondering that when good things happen. None of us do anything to deserve the many blessings that the good Lord bestows upon us.
+Axl Kix Speak for yourself....
+Axl Kix It seems in my life, I get things when I don't deserve them, but don't get them when I feel I do.
MacGuffin Boo hoo....
+Zen ofKen What's your problem?
MacGuffin Your story brought a tear to my 3 brown eyes...
To the man who doesn't think Kris is that great, try writing as many hits as he did for the caliber of stars who performed them. This man is an amazing artist.
Sandy Conley I agree! I've always loved Kris Kristofferson but this is the first time I've heard this. I was moved and impressed once again and reminded of how much I love and respect him as an artist. I'm glad I didn't see the comment you are referring to. I purposely will not look. I am tired of people who are incapable of appreciating great beauty. It is a quality that I have great difficulties dealing with. As Kris aptly expressed it "Lord help me Jesus" I certainly do in having to deal with people like this. :)
My son died and this song is him. Why me lord
Just a personal note about Chris christopherson I started out As af janitor at Sun studios
Rolanda hit song prayer channel that man he's in the Hall of Fame that should be and I'm pretty good and damn good writer
@@doningram5145 tell us some stories_ I bet you have lots.
My heart is so broken over many things in my life but nothing can break my heart more then the times I let my Jesus down thanks Chris for this song .Reading the comments makes me realise there are so many people out there I can reach to

Doug Zuberer Amen.
A sinner? Then you will rot in hell......
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 lovin' you or the kindness you've shown
Lord help me, Jesus, I've wasted it so
Help me Jesus I know what I am
But 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, I've wasted it so
Help me Jesus I know what I am
But now that I know that I've needed you so
Help me, Jesus, my soul's in your hand
Lord help me, Jesus, I've wasted it so
Help me Jesus I know what I am
But now that I know that I've needed you so
Help me Jesus my souls in your hand
Jesus, my soul's in your hand.
Beautiful
thank you for the lyrics, so I can understand this complex song
We'll see Kris when we get there thanks to the Godman ,precious Jesus based on what he said in his testimony about this song. He closed every show with this song... awesome!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
5 days sobriety, this song floors me.
Hope you're still sober
@@chronicthumb3163 Yes sir, going on three months. I am convinced the good Lord took that desire away from me to drink finally. I did have to hit rock bottom though. So I’m trying to climb out of a felony count involved in a hit-and-run. I had a pasture fence and then tried to back up on the road and got nailed with a hit-and-run. I’ve had about 1000 triggers, since March 14 but I’m still sober and I know it’s from divine intervention. Thanks for asking. I appreciate it.
I did have a relapse and that was really terrible it’s true whenever your relapse it gets worse but I’ve tried to put God as the most important thing in my life and I’m actually showing positive changes in my life finally. Thanks for asking even though I don’t know are you at still means a lot.
Hell ya that's awesome I will have 3 years July 13 keep it up one day at a time
@@chronicthumb3163 Thank you again chronic thumb I appreciate the support and I’m proud of you also. Especially through Covid that is a testing ground for everybody’s weakness.
This song and Kris helped me to become real and to drop any pretence and performance.
Love you Jesus 💖
Doesn't this describe so many of us? Refresh and heal with Jesus.
We can't do anything without god 😢
I knew this older guy that was my dads friend,,,wild and reckless but such a likable person always whistled this song and met a violet car crash that would take his life,,,following the hearse that day this song played from the funeral home to his resting spot,,,will always remember that day and how even a wild and reckless respected and loved that song and today 2021 I still love this and think back over periods of my life that I’m still here,,,praise the lord
Kris does this better than anyone not because he has the best voice, but because the words of the song came from his imagination....greatest song writer ever
+Iwastherein1969 I don't know about best EVER XD But, he is definitely very gifted
+Iwastherein1969 Elvis sang it in the 70's Kris sings it better!!!!!
I can imagine. I'll go check it out though
+Iwastherein1969 Kris wrote this song, he was always more of a writer than a singer.
+Iwastherein1969 ,Amennn,to that,
Thank You Lord for your love and kindness
My daddy song I can remember him fallen on his knees and start worshipping yaweh❤
