  • I wish I had a dad as good as him to sing this to me~!!!

  • @LilacFairy1 Jesus gave you your father for a reason. Don't wish for someone else besides your dad.Or don't wish that you could sing like him, for Jesus made you erectly the way you are. =)

  • Comment removed

  • @LilacFairy1 It doesn't matter what he's like, but love your dad and respect him for who he is. God gave you to him of a reason. God loves you and made you perfect. God Bless you double of what you gave me! :)

  • i am adopted this song i love soo much! when i get married this going to be my dad an i song!

  • I cry every time that I hear this song. I'm a senior in high school and next year I graduate and move out on my own. The scariest thing for me is to leave my Daddy. Songs like this always get me.

  • YOUTUBE...I've found a glitch with this video. Theres still a dislike button!

  • We shouldn't be doing the whole "19 people didn't..." on these kinds of songs, sure they may be numerous on other videos, however, making fun of others on how they don't have "Jesus in their heart" is not the Christ thing to do and sure isn't the most humble to make fun of other because of their beliefs

  • how could anyone dislike this?

  • help :( i cant hear anything

    

  • I love this song and with my future husband's permission and Daddy's i want it for my Daddy Daughter Dance.

  • The version that he plays with Taylor Guitars is great too =)!

  • thanx, i have been learning this on my guitar and this really helped

  • 18 people dont have jesus in there heart

  • SURREAL AFTER WHAT HAPPENED

  • @melonomaheadiscoming why? what happened?

  • @johnstangg his daughter passed away, in an accident at their home.

  • @johnstangg

    She died in a car accident in their driveway 10 days after her 5th birthday and hours before her sister's engagement party (I think it was her sister) and before her 16 year old brother's graduation. Her 16 year old brother was driving the car during the accident in the driveway.

  • @melonomaheadiscoming Isn't it? you can feel his sorrow all the more when you listen to this song, and then switch over to "Heaven is the Face".

  • love this song.. wish i can still dance with my dad.. =(

  • The Lord used steven and family to encourage us to adopt a little girl (i wasn't keen at first) - it took us 2 years for the Lord to bring the right child to us - but now 6 months later the Lord has really blessed us - thank you chapmans for your ministry

  • I love this song- brings tears to my eyes every time I hear it. Something else I really appreciate about this video in particular, is the realness of it. That you are just like us- glad plug in and all. Thank so much for the blessing.

  • Hey, what are the chords. Don't bogart the chords man.

If I don't ever meet you here on Earth I'll see you in Heaven! Maybe even we'll play music together someday I am asst. worship leader @ Briar Creek Rd. Baptist Clt. N.C.

  • @sgd1213 i wish i had a good father like that

  • @XxJordanFugatexX Don't you realize it? You do have a good father, a great one, a perfect one. We all do, whether we believe in Him or not, He is our perfect father. No matter what our Earthly fathers do or say to us, He loves, and He reigns.

  • He is not a perfect father, but sure is close.

  • @sgd1213 if you let the love of God fill you up, you will be an amazing father =)

  • @sgd1213 I wish there was a LOVE button for this comment! :)

  • It amazes me you have the strength to sing that song after what happened to our Daughter. God is good!

  • our = your dag gum it.

  • As a divorced father I can relate to this pain, every week when my son goes to his mother's. Not being able to be with my son everyday reminds me to cherish every momment I have with him. (Truthfully, I get tearry-eyed EVERY time I hear this song.)

  • I love him so much! I'm so sorry for his daughter. WE all know where she is though :)

  • I LOVE THIS SONG absolulutly

  • He's changed the ending recently.

  • yes he has, and it's much more hopeful i think. i heard it tonight when he was in the K-Love studio

  • wonderful song!!!

  • I feel the pain in his voice for his daughter

  • love stary

  • this is such an awesome song i have it as 1 of my tops on my playlist. this song touches me so much i gotta say dat this is an awesome song 2 hear everyday

  • this is so beautiful!

  • I cried when I first heard this song!!!!!

  • My dream is adoption too.... It's amazing that I hear my favorite Christian artist talk about it...

  • this song is flat out beautiful !

  • My Estee Li Li who is adopted from China..it is her favorite song

  • This is a truly AMAZING song with a BEAUTIFUL story behind it! I simply love it! Thank you so much for writing and singing such an uplifting song SCC... :D

  • omg i love this song coz its just amazes me how loveing this song is and how many people love it and i thin k steven curtis chapman's kids are just amazing and beautiful

  • i love this song.. reminds me of my life with my father.

    I'm still a kid, and haven't even hit the second verse yet, but it's true, life goes by fast, and I will cherish every moment I have with my parents, and my siblings.

    God bless you all.

  • i love this song so much...it jux touch me so much....

  • This song is simultaneously beautiful and tragic, much like life itself. I havent heard the studio version yet; only acoustic, live versions. Ill probably prefer the live versions for their grit. We all want our kids to grow up and leave us, but it must be gut wrenching to let them go. I try to spend as much time as I can with my two girls, because I know they will be gone before I know it, and Ill be waiting for the phone to ring.

  • I dance for a studio in Maine and our senior girls did a dance to this song. the first time i heard it i couldn't help myself but cry. this is such a beautiful song. thank you so much for writing it

  • Comment removed

  • I have a precious little girl from China who will soon turn four. I can't imagine losing her and this song breaks my heart. but also helps me to slow down and enjoy the little moments too. Thank you so much.

  • I can't listen to this song without falling apart without thinking about sweet little Maria...God Bless those precious people and all that they do...I pray that they have felt our prayers over their loss...God Bless:)

  • I love this song.

    I have the album too.

  • hay cosa en la vida que no podemos entender, pero sabes una cosa Esteven tu musica me ha bendecido mucho tu corazon hacia Dios es hermoso sigue adelante termina la obra que Dios ha puesto en tus manos don t give up

  • sadd' but sweet

  • i heard that he changed the lyrics at the end after maria sue died and has sung it it some concerts...not sure thats true but i'm thinking it was his son that said it...

  • i am so touched! God Bless you everyday!

  • I am touched!!! Thank you for sharing it! May God bless you greatly in all that you do.

  • this song is so ad it makes me cry

  • Thank you Brother for your song . I can feel the Love of God in your Music, His message.

    michael

  • This song is kind of bittersweet considering he lost his daughter. :(

  • this song makes me cry every single time...just by u mostlyy

  • Sweet song indeed.All parents can relate.I assume.I am not a parent.

  • Awesome song!

  • AH AH It SO BEAUTIFUL! i cry almost everytime!! i seriously almost broke down in the grosery store when this song was playing...

  • This song makes me cry everytime!

    GO SCC!!

  • this is really pretty sad now, considering he just lost one of his daughters~~~~~~what a tragedy

  • chapman is a Christian artist, but i would say this is a regular song. not 'christian' per say. just a great song with a great point!

  • does this song have anything to do with being christian? cause i hear it on k-love and that's a christian radio station? i'm not saying i'm a hater. i just wanna know what the concept of this song is.

  • it is a reminder to be thankful for every blessing you have in life. this song is along the same lines as his song "miracle of the moment". you should check it out if you haven't already.

  • It has everything to do with being a Christian - God wants to be part of every aspect of our lives, God wants us to enjoy a relationship with him in everything we do.

  • absolutely beautiful song

    you are so amazing.

  • i wont to thank god and you for this cloreous song you sing... it really helped when i was going through things with my dad being sick... may god bless you and your family..

  • I love this song and i know many others do too. keep up with the great work wonderful singing

    God bless you and your family

  • im sorry

  • nice song man.

  • He doesn't need six kids. But maybe those kids need a good dad.

  • Where did it say that he was only happy after adopting for the 3rd time? I've listened to Steven Curtis Chapman's music for years and have never heard that message. Besides, none of us have the right to critisize others' personal choices. Everything happens for a reason. Find any information about the Chapman family from this summer and find out yourself what they believe was the reason Maria came into their lives and why hers was tragically cut short.

  • @GandalfTheGoof I hope that nothing like this ever happens to you. Just remember that when you judge others harshly its the same way you will be judged. That little girl had more life and love in 5 years than most people will have in a lifetime.

  • his daughter died.........man

  • i saw this guy in concert last yr. it was for my friend's b-day partay. i love this song/

  • anyone have it in guitar pro?

    i dont like reading it with chords haha

  • your really good at singing and playing. true talent.

    =]

    and this song is ahhmazing.

  • Steven, the way you play this song is amazing. I listened to it over and over and over. I love all of your music. You have a true gift. Great job.

  • To my Great Dance Partner, My Father, My God... thank you for the composer's/artist' talent and gift...

  • Everytime I hear this song I cry... Seriously, I heard about his daughter while this song was playing on the radio, wow... I mean.. just, wow...

  • Steve, I have listened to your work growing up and have always liked it so much. Just like most other people who have a daughter and want the special father daughter dance at her wedding, I wanted that song too. It was just so special to me. I have a little one and half year old. And now I have found the song that I want for sure, to play for our dance. I willing be so proud to play it. It has touched so many lives and will continue too! God Bless, Tyler Brown

  • i have that guitar that is awesome i just wish i could play even close to Steven. You are awesome!

  • May Maria look down on her daddy from heaven and smile her beautiful smile....my heart breaks for the Chapman's. God, please give them Your strength.

  • Okay that's not fair. My wife just sent this to me at work and I damn near started balling as I listened to it, thinking about my baby girls (2 1/2 and 1 month). It makes me never want to have those excuses where I'm just "too tired" or "too busy." I'll always be there to dance with my Cinderellas. Awesome song!

  • i just went to a wedding about a week and a half ago and the bride danced to thins song when she did the daddy daughter dance part, and i was almost crying

  • this is my favorite cristian song ever!!!!! :)

  • Thank you! So many people have a hard time understanding that "Christian" is a noun, not an adjective. A song can't be a Christian!

    By the way, I love this song. :)

  • ok. finally someone else who agrees with what i say!

  • You are right. but, what´s your point?

  • ya u r so rite

  • OMG i love this song! its The Best Song For Me And My Dad To Listen To Together

  • You are AWESOME! Such a good song-writer, guitarist and yada yada...all in all, a very blessed man of God. :)

  • A guy in my Music class did a presentation on Cinderella. He was so passionate about it... and I adored the song as soon as I heard it. SO BEAUTIFUL :)

  • This song is AMAZING!! I am 16 years old and this song made me cry! Thank you Stephen Crutis Chapman for writing this song! It is very touching to me and my family

  • God Bless You!!
