Homesick

[Maida174]

Gosh, this is hard to watch. Nearly a year ago I lost my dad (greatest, most beautiful and loving man I've ever known, my knight in shining armour) it still feels like I lost him just yesterday. I see his face every day of my life wether I close my eyes or not, and wish that he was really there. I see him at night too, in my dreams. I try not to be mad at God..I am, I love Him, Ive not abandoned Him..but I feel like He's pulled my insides out..I can't understand. I want my dad back.

This song hits close. I lost my grandfather at age 15. One day he was over for dinner, the next he never woke up. Not a year later, my friends dad died of pancreatic cancer, and 3 days later another friends mom, who was like my mom, died of pancreatic cancer. Later that year, my best friend was killed in a car accident. A month following that one of my friends was murdered by a police officer. One of my teachers who i was close to died in a motorcycle accident. Another friend is in a coma.

Wow. I love it when you combine Christian music with Lord of the RIngs...

[azghqpunmg]

Just like it says I have never been more homesick then now.Oh what a day that will be to see and personally praise our loving father.

[linktronics]

Thisis one of those songs that can be related to by many people . It touched me so much I had to do a version myself . God has guided this group of young men in my eyes and ears . God bless us all.

The 6 year anniversary of my Dad's passing is the Feb 14. We family fell apart. He was my best friend. Things have changed so much. My sisters are teen moms and my Mom is now a recovering alcoholic. Through all of this I meet my husband. We will be married for 2 years in June. After we got married we moved to KY for School. I miss home very much. My Grandma is dealing with radiation for breast cancer. This song rings true in both areas of my life. I miss home and my Daddy. Thanks and God Bless!

There isn't anything that we can not go through without God's love. Keep the faith and know that Jesus Loves you... and he listens to your prayers....

[belovedsugarplum]

i am sorry for the testing times & yet its like reading my own ... my beloved mother died now 10 yrs ago now & much has changed

[belovedsugarplum]

... & it can never be the same & perhaps when alll is said & done & His words that stands forever will gather all those who morn in "zion" & wipe away the tears

[belovedsugarplum]

but moreover the tears will more heart felt when we see families torn apart forever as we go to the selected & elected & chosen place of heaven or hell? i think thats when the tears will fall the most! & hearts broken....

[jwecrane]

@jesishangle Praying that God will watch over you and your family through all of this turmoil...your father is in a much better place, and you will all be reunited someday soon...believe...

Throughout our lives we will lose loved ones, all we can do is share the message of grace. We can look foward to seeing them again when our work is done.

In June my Grandfather went into open heart surgery he survived it....barely. In July his wife, my Grandmother, went into brain surgery she survived, but now it's August and my Grandfather took himself to the hospital and said he didn't want to die in his home. He lives in Florida, I live in Texas. I know him very well though which upsets me even more. I'm scared though I know christ is with my Grandmother. They say she won't live much longer. She had to have brain surgery bc she got foodpoising

[Susiemilb2b]

I always felt like I didn't have a home, my Mom left when I was seven and my Dad & Sister raised me. In 96 they both died within 5 months of each other, she was just 49, I believe the Lord took him because his heart was broken when she died. Over the past 12 yrs I have married and live in a beautiful place but my "Best Friends" who always had the right answers for me aren't here and I'll always feel Homesick until I'm back with them.

August 16, 2001 my ten year old daughter died. Yesterday, my mom died. Thank you Mercy Me for your lyrics and your music. The only thing that keeps me going is knowing that I have a future with them for all eternity! Praise God!

Next week it will be the 3rd anniversary of my mother's death. She died from cancer at age 44. Nine months after she went to be with Jesus, her brother passed away suddenly. He was going in for a gallbladder surgery. Both my mother and her brother were my Dad's best friends. I miss them so much and still don't understand why they're gone. We are all Christians, but that doesn't make me not miss them. I do know that I'll see them again.

Thanks for the great video. I really enjoyed it.

I love this song.

It really hits home.

I lost my grandmother when I was 7. Honestly, one week she was alive, the next she was dead. It was such a shock, she was my best friend.

Then in May of 2007 my cousin Jeff was in a car accident and died, right when he was in the prime of his life. He was so active, and him and his wife, Missy had the best relationship of anyone I've ever met.

It's been really hard, and I get depressed sometimes. This song helps.

Thank you.

[kelenloth]

Wow. I am so sorry for you! but.. I'm glad you have found something that helps: God helps. And I'm glad you like this song...I can't say I know what you've been through, but I know God can help you through it.

no thanks needed. Glad you liked it.

Aaaww. Beautiful song and good choice of images.

[ilymylilsis]

this is such a great video i love this song soo much when i frist heard this song i cried.

[Narindil]

This is a beautiful video. Not only in a sense that it portrays the sadness of all those left behind, but that as a Christian the song serves as a reminder that death is not eternal. Good job. :-)

[kelenloth]

Thank you. I really liked this song, and it's one of my favorie videos. yes, no matter how much Sam wishes to cross that ocean, even if he doesn't then, he will eventually! thanks again!
