held natalie grant

[Blue72Forever]

I lost my 16 year old to sudden heart failure...he was an athlete, way too common... this song depicts my feelings and heartbreak and gives me hope. I have to keep telling myself that Job (from the Bible) endured so much more, but he kept his faith and let God carry him when he felt he couldn't walk and that's what I'm doing too; banking on the promise of eternal life with my child...<3

[MegaStarr123]

if this video does not touch your heart nothing else will I can just feel the hurt in these ppl on on this video and i am waithig on my LORD to come and rescue me from this GOD forsaking world that it has become I just cry !!! there is nothing else for us left to do I want to thank GOD for saving my soul and i hope that this will touch all the ppl who listen to it !!!

[vanessadieudonne]

How can one dislike? I wouldnt DARE come close to the dislike button when it has to do with the Almighty...just saying.

[feelguamish56]

I dont think ive ever laughed so hard in my life

[TheEzekyell]

this video reminds me of many things I did, when I

hear to this song

[BoricuaMamii621]

heartbreaking 

[plarsen1212]

me and my girl went too far.. we made a hasty decision.. i cant imagine what my life would be if ben would've had a chance.. i regret it everyday and me and my girl aint even together anymore. Dear KC i love you and i wish i could take back everything. I love you and miss you. R.I.P Benjimen

[rhombergbrittni]

this song is so sad, cant stop the tears, it would be really tough to be a parent then have something happen to your child... :""""(

[prettymil10]

Great question.In the beginning when God created his prized creation (US) it was not his plan for our life to be full of pain.But when Adam&Eve disobeyed God & ate from the Tree of Life,a curse was brought upon the human race; hence we are born in sin.We live a cursed life,& only the blood of Jesus can pay the penalty.Ir is like a parent child relatioship. I dont like to punish my son when he is wrong but I have to so that he knows what is right&wrong, to learn. The story in in Genesis chapter 3

[22purplepiglet22]

im in tears right now

[MiSsPrInCeSsPoOh16]

@22purplepiglet22 lmfao hi liz!

[22purplepiglet22]

@MiSsPrInCeSsPoOh16 lol hi donna:)

[onelittleangel29]

This video.. Song.. I gave to my aunt when her son died. It was hard.. but it helped the healing..

jtrahan63: Innocent is debatable. Every human who has ever lived has sinned. The question your really asking is.. IS IT FAIR?

The answer is.. No! God never promised to be fair.. He just promised he would be there for us. Some people have an easy long life.. Others a short miserable one.. SOMETIMES I THINK THE SHORT MISERABLE ONES ARE THE GREATEST GIFTS.. MORE REASON TO SEARCH FOR GOD!

[jtrahan63]

If God loves us, why do innocent children have to die?

[TheJoelleWilliams]

I love this song it makes me wanna cry because God held me from all the bad things in my life and I am so glad that God did that for me.

[caulean]

I cant wait to learn ASL (american sign language) to this song and perform it in front of my church! Never lose faith in god! when you having problems there is no better solution then to pray about them! Trust me... it helps ALOT! God will NEVER put you through something he doesn't think you can handle!! It may not seem like it... but God has faith in us and we have/need to have faith in God as well!!

[iLoveYou13x3]

Rest in heavenly peace Drew <3

You were only 5 years old when cancer took you from this earth...

The whole town loves you buddy!! Fly high..

[meriammlmfc]

i really love this song... each time i heard this, i'm so amazed of the great things God gave us and he will give for our lives. HE loves us so much with immeasurable size and let's thank and praise HIM always =)

[jesusfreakheather]

my aunt died sunday of cancer...she was all i was living for....

[sundaysangel]

@jesusfreakheather im sorry, but dont worry God's holding you and not ever planning on letting you go.

[jesusfreakheather]

@sundaysangel thanx....i was just having a hard time with my faith right before she died, and then when she died i just got mad at God and kept asking "why her? what did she ever do? God, if you are truly there and you truly love you people, why did you take the person who so many people need in their lives?"...i'm getting a little better, but it is still hard for me...i miss her soo much it hurts...

[hotlake28]

I love this song!

[BgirlJesuslover777]

i would like to know the actual meaning behind this video. does anyone know?

[gwapzandreacute]

WOW... This is amazing pictures fix together... to make us realize that GOD is always with us in- spite of the chaos around us... Praise God...

[Ruby04ful]

[NYbornatheart]

this song, the video, and the message helps me to remember that we all live every day by His grace alone.

[goisabella5]

the sacred was never meant to be torn, sin tears it, just as sin tore Jesus The most Sacred. Heaven will be perfect and the most beautiful place imaginable. One day!

[MaggieHallack]

yes it is! I went to a woman of faith concert and she told us the story. very heart breaking and a reminer to love every moment with your children ..Even they are misbehaving, :)

[babiipooh24]

@MaggieHallack I went to that Women of faith! And it was heart breaking! I don't recall a dry eye in there!

[roxy1porche2bandit3]

my dad's in the military and was deployed to germany for a year or so. i heard on the radio they announced him dead. i prayed and needed to be held. turns out the man that died had the same name as my dad but wasn't him. i told god thanx for holding me ;D

[esiuol360girl19]

my friend has a daughter, and his wife died in the army, and he said 'how do you tell a 3year old that her mummy dead' :'(

[Holister951]

Haha

@ isummerboy, I couldn't agree more.

I think everyone does :D

[SuperNaomi96]

I don't think so but lots of people are going through it.

[usalovers44]

Yes this song is based on a true story of Natalie's friend-friend. Her baby died so she wrote this song! i LOVE THIS SONG..... IT MAKES ME WANT TO CRY!:)

[JesusFreak579]

This song rocks me to the core! My GOD!!! Life is so very fragile.

[iSummerboy18]

I want an iPhone 4G.

[austonstowe]

this song is true at the celebrate freedom concert in atl. b-4 she sang this song she said that it is true and devastating. she put emotions in it

[SuperFaithk]

IS THIS SONG BASED ON A TRUE STORY

[liamtheboykid]

@SuperFaithk I have no idea! But I don't think so :D

[mojovie]

@liamtheboykid It is, it's about a baby who died of S.I.D.S. "Sudden Infant Death Syndrome."

[Niceyjoy]

@liamtheboykid OH.yea it IS based on a TRUE story.

Natalie's friend wrote this song after she lost two loved ones in a span of 48 hours. Natalie then recorded this song. so thats pretty much it.

[kellyparkins]

@liamtheboykid Yes this is based on a true and very sad story. Natalie has friends who were trying for a baby, who conceived then lost the baby shortly after birth...so sad

[akparamedic]

@liamtheboykid Yes, it is based on a true story -- a friend of Natlie Grant's who lost her baby

[MAKEUPyourmindXO]

@liamtheboykid Yes.  Natalie wrote it for friends who lost their baby.

[DaffodillyZ]

@liamtheboykid

actually the song is reported to be true. apparently natalie had a close friend who suffered the loss of a long awaited child. It's also my understanding that the friend wrote part of the song...

[lpo2112]

@SuperFaithk

Yes. I know that much. I think she wrote it about a friend of her's that had a miscarriage but I am not certain.

[halesann3]

@SuperFaithk It is. It was written by her friend, Christa Wells, who had 3 friends who suffered from extreme loss. Each verse is about a different friend. Two of them lost their child, and one lost her husband.

Sad, but such an amazing story!

[Dman761]

@SuperFaithk yes, actually it is. She had a friend who lost her first baby a few days after he was born, and this song was dedicated to her.

[maddysue12]

@SuperFaithk yes i was at a women of faith conference and she performed this song and she said that when she said 2 months is too little is because some of her friends had a baby and the dad was feeding him at night and he took his last breath and died in his high chair he was only 2 months

[occhick1600]

@SuperFaithk yes it is I went on a cruise and she was a guest singer and she told us this story... the whole audience was in tears!

[csdsdancefreak101]

@SuperFaithk yes its based on a true story, im doing this song for dance its about her friend lost her son at 2 months and all that stuff

[fawn2314]

@SuperFaithk yes this song she wrote for her best friend or her sister when they lost their child~

[TheFunneh]

I love this song and video it makes me stop and lift my praise the good lord for giving me the life i had and giving me the blessing of never having to expeirence things like that i want to save all the children and hold them and tell them everything will be ok

[Karatsar123]

My nephew had two of his best friends killed in a car accident this past weekend and one's birthday was today. Both boys were between 17-20 years old. Sooo sad! This song helps so much. What an amazing artist!

[Kataang7789]

Uck, I finnaly found this song!!!

I love it and I've been trying to find it for months!!!

[select8s]

Is this: " What am I still here for?"

Is this where my search for purpose begins, after all that has happened.

Is this the alternative to: "What's the use (in going on) now."

[harless2432]

Yes, this is the song that answers all.....

[marandamyers94]

this iz a great video .. it jus sounds a little distorted

[SWEETAPACHE1030]

These are questons we all ask in times of sorrow and fear..but then find that though we may have felt alone or afraid that we were never alone. 'This is what it means"...We were promised that God would never leave or forsake us. Even Jesus asked God "why" but as we all know...God revealed why.

[Dopecky18]

Two days after my cousin killed himself i heard this song and even though i cried at the time it gave me hope to hear it. Everytime i hear it i am reminded of that pain and why it is so important to live your life!

[webkinzgal901]

[JessamynDreamer]

Genny says: "I'm praying for you. And for your family.

You are loved."

[GoldrushUniversity]

[rs4pl]

[shockerzmedia101]

im literally in tears. this song just shows me how much we have to be grateful for and that sometimes the good things are gone before you know it. this song reminds me of my grandpa who died suddenly 1 1/2 years ago of a heart attack and his car crashed. i miss him dearly.

[SOFTBALL3212]

i went january 24-25 for the gurls revolve tour of 2009 and saw natalie garnt in person and i herd her sing this song and it influinced me so much to make a step back on gods path. this song is so powerful it touches you and i at revolve i fell to my knees and thankd god for how good our lives are and this video makes it that much more better!!! i love you so much natalie ur my hero thank you so much

[longstripedsocks101]

wonderful video, amazing :)

[longstripedsocks101]

look at those dying children and that person wrapped up sitting on the side of the street. think about how good you have it, living in a nice house, even an apartment! those kids in foreign countries see death nearly every day; think about how miserable they are. so next time you lose someone you love, don't be afraid to cry. just know that they are going to a great place to join the Lord.

think about it.

[brokenpart13]

this is the song we play at my granmother funeral 9 monthes ago she died of cancer

[mimie211]

[Suzybeth83]

this song simply says that you can survive anything, with God and a strong heart

[tyger2011]

[liamtheboykid]

[iloveJBforever7]

[liamtheboykid]

well, I have many friends who are Emo. That's what they call themselves.

Have no idea but Emo are cool to hang out with!

[tyger2011]

Well you might be one!

[liamtheboykid]

Maybe! Idk

[megabs107]

Emo is when you are like goth and you hate your life and you cut your self...

[liamtheboykid]

Are u saying that my sister Miky cuts herself all the time?

OMG!OMG! That's creppy!

[megabs107]

Uh is she emo? If so then problably...

[liamtheboykid]

I saw Natalie Grant in concert in Chicago area, and the song is so emotional live. She talks about how we are not promised a life free of suffering, but to be held in God's arms through the suffering.

[cometsgirls2]

omgsh thats sooo sad i almost cryed! well it was very sad and i love your poem in the descripion box..it makes a difference.. ~&hearts;Sky

[hairol82]

[hairol82]

good... very very good...

[1mangafan]

this is seriously really sad to see these people.... *tear tear tear*

[mhwon3]

oope sorry i sent a double

[mhwon3]

i think the message that is being conveyed here is that death, no matter what form it comes in, is inevitable - the trick is to spend each day of our lives as if it's out last - savour every drop of goodness life has to offer so when it's our time to meet our Maker, we'll know that our time on Earth has been well spent :)

[mhwon3]

i think the message that is conveyed here is that death, in fact, is inevitable - so live everyday like it's our last; savour every drop of goodness in our lives and when it's our time to go back home to our Maker, we know our time on Earth has been well spent :)

[angelfraud]

yeh ots pretty good, good goin mate, probably dont promote the suicide casue that was why i clicked on it and if its not about suicide i would say dont write that but great job

[Magnifiek77]

So what's the story here. I don't fully understand. Kids that commit suiside. Or suicide attackers? Help me out here...
