LYRICS:
Sometimes marriages don't work
And sometimes babies die
Sometimes rehab turns to relapse
And you’re left just asking why
And for all the prayers I’ve prayed
I still wonder if He’s real
And if He is how is He choosing
Who He does and doesn't heal

I’ve tried to run from Jesus
I’ve started holy wars
I’ve tried the patient waiting
And the kicking down the doors
I’ve cursed His name anger
With my fists raised to the sky
And in return all He’s ever been is kind

I’ve burned my share of bridges
Learned to tuck my tail and run
Watched the wreckage in the rear view
From all the crooked things I’ve done
And I know that He forgives me
But it’s hard to forgive myself
I can’t help but think amazing grace
Is for everybody else

I’ve tried to run from Jesus
I’ve started holy wars
I’ve tried the patient waiting
And the kicking down the doors
I’ve cursed His name anger
With my fists raised to the sky
And in return all He’s ever been is kind
All He’s ever been is kind

And I know I wasn’t there
But when I look up at the cross
I see the darkest day in history
And I guess that’s what kindness cost

I’ve tried to run from Jesus
I’ve started holy wars
I’ve tried the patient waiting
And the kicking down the doors
He knows I don’t deserve it
But He’s never changed His mind
All He’s ever been is kind
All He’s ever been is kind

I used to be a Muslim, I have never been at peace, I have been a Christian for 3 months now, my life is more peaceful, calm Jesus is changing me, I feel it

[PraiseGodall]

I'm a 15 year old boy going through depression 🥺. I always listen too gospel song to put myself together. I recently lost my grandmother this year and every time when I listen to this song makes me cry. I just wanna be in god arms right now but I want to finish my school first. I feel hopeless right now 😔. Pray for me please 😭

I was 18, far from God, homeless in las vegas being trafficked by a much older bf.. i found out i was pregnant, and even though circumstances sucked, she was my hope. He stopped selling me, took care of me, at 18 weeks i started bleeding.. I went to the hospital. Because i was homeless they were cold and cruel. They did an ultrasound, told me by baby was dead, gave me some pads and said SHE would pass out of me over a few days. Parts of her did.. during that time my bf went to jail, i got kicked out of our apartment, i was alone on the streets again, i got an infection because baby didnt pass fully. They ignored me in the er waiting room until i fainted... i woke up in a hospital room. I called my mom and dad and begged them to let me come home... that was the slow start of my journey back to Godm

Marriages can work. My husband drank. I prayed nonstop. 32 plus years later, he, with our three beautiful adult children and two awesome son-in-laws and two grandsons—was it all worth it? Yes. A million times, yes! God works miracles through the hardest parts. But He is always there, helping, guiding through His Word, to us. And the joy! 🙏🏼

[godwinbusiku]

I started listening to this song when my brother-in-law died a week after marrying my sister. And two days ago me and my wife just lost our first baby who just lived a day and I never even had the chance to hold him in my hands this has broken us 😭. We are holding on to God for healing and purpose once more.

[babadeedee]

Your lyrics touch my heart in a way like no other writer lately. These are the days cuts deep for parents of adult kids. Cory. Please write one about parents praying for their adult prodigal to come back to Jesus. There are a lot of us out here praying for their hearts of stone to become hearts of flesh and for God to breath His breath into their dead dry bones. He promises to search for the lost and bring back the strays and I know your way with words could write an amazing song.

[Joshua-wrez]

We lost our first son 7 years ago at Christmas. During those years we miscarried twice and just gave up knowing we probably won’t have any children this side of heaven. We have fought we have had our differences but I thank God every night she has stayed beside me. Then last Father’s day she told me she was pregnant and then we got the call we were having a boy. I broke down and cried in my wheelchair. She cried those happy tears. Then on October 13, 11 days before my birthday we welcomed him into this world. Then Christmas came and we were so scared we would loose him but right now he’s still here and I’m the happiest a father could be. I could have cursed God when I woke up to not having any my men here after the ambush I could have given in and just let go but through this women she has stayed and so shall I. Thank you Jesus for being here always with me and her until our family is all reunited we shall praise you.

[garrettmartin]

I remember our marriage in the beginning. After the sparks died down, we realized we didn't see eye-to-eye; how to raise kids, where to cut for our meager budget, can we afford for one of us to stay home for the kids. We went through counciling and alot of soul searching. After 27 years and seeing our kids become better adults than I could ever be, I can confidently say I would do it all over again. Even the part with taking care of my wife as she makes it through her tenth year struggling with Parkinson's Disease. To love others unconditionally is the gift Christ gave us to live out in our lives with others.

I drank from 15 to 30 years old 15years i drank all the time trying to cover up the pain of my childhood when finally i had to face 5 years behind bars and i served everyday from a black out drunk mistake... I can say today that i am 8 years sober God remains 1st place in my life, I run a successful business i have loving family around me always and Gods will for my life is taking shape. Praise the lord for second Chances... Great song Cory Keep it up!

At 8.5 months pregnant, I went to the labor and delivery ward trusting that the doctors there would safely deliver my son. It was my first time giving birth and I was terrified but assumed I could trust the doctors. Unfortunately, when the doctor used the suction and vacuum to extract my son, they broke his skull in 4 places. He was born April 21st and passed away in my arms on April 22nd which was my birthday. To say I was angry at God is an understatement. This happened in 2020 and in 2021 we welcomed our rainbow baby and he'll be 3 this year. He is my whole world and I thank God for him everyday.

[Valkyrie]

Heard this song this morning. Its been a long 6 days with our 5 month old daughter as she couldn't keep anything down and was losing weight. Hours in the ER and all I could think about was the two miscarriages we went through and the thought of losing her too. I lost my faith that with him everything would be ok...In my frustration, anger, and fear I cursed him for putting us through that again. I am ashamed for losing my faith and cursing his name. I know he still loves and forgives me, but I don't deserve it and don't know if I'll ever forgive myself. Just as he has time and time again, he saw us through this and our daughter is on the mend.

[drewg]

I’m ashamed that I used to be that guy. I know the anger, the self hate, the addiction, the destruction of family. Today I’m free from those chains. Thank you Lord. This is an awesome song and message. This is actual music and Christian music. Brought tears to my eyes.

[Faithinme]

God doesn't promise a easy life, but he does promise he will never leave you. Whoever is out there needing to hear, just because u dont feel God doesn't mean he's not there. Stay faithful God loves you

[KK-qmjj]

This is my first time hearing this song. I was coming home on a plane from across the country taking my mom to my grandmas funeral. While I had just heard my best friend who was in labor with her twin girls. Then the second leg of my trip Ppl posted pictures of her younger on Facebook and I was so confused. No one wanted to tell me she died during childbirth. I had just lost my grandpa then I lost my step dad to suicide then my great grandma passed two weeks after he died. Then i had to fly home when my grandma passed and while flying home i saw from FB she died during childbirth. I literally collapsed in the middle of the airport trying to catch my last flight home. I was a wreck. I couldnt stop drinking to numb the pain. I lost contact with her family some years back but she was a beautiful soul and spirit my best friend. She would be proud of me and who I am today. God redeemed me and saved me from suicide, alcohol, later on weed, all depression, anxiety medications, ptsd, seizures, and sexual sin. Although i am in the biggest battle of my life now I know God has a plan for me. Lord please renew my strength. I miss you Rebekah ❤

[dj.Ras]

This video is too much of real life for me. I lost my first child and turned to drugs and alcohol for many years. Been to 10 rehabs and finally found some good Godly Men to help me out on my journey. With addiction and pain it took a long time to come to a place of forgiveness and accepting the way of Jesus. I was baptized in November and it didn't get easier for me. I had to learn to trust in a way I never knew how. It became unconditional and I don't want any other way of what I feel in my heart now.

[xendarcodm]

Thankful for music that isn’t just the “life is great God is good” stuff. Sometimes life gives is more than we can handle and we need stuff like this to find His grace to make it through.

[murmur]

I'm currently pregnant with my rainbow baby we lost our first a couple months ago. This baby came after the death of my brother and father 40 days apart due to alcohol addiction. I have so many health issues and am worried that I may pass during labor. I trust the Lord though. Always.

[selasun]

Today is my daughter's angelversary. Strange how this came up when l needed it. My daughter lived 5 weeks and died. I thought l would die from a broken heart but God soothed my brokenness and l can say that, "All he's ever been is kind." Thank you for this beautiful song 🎵 It touched me deeply today as l remembered my little angel Ashlyn 😇 As Tracy Chapman sang, "She was the only one, of my flesh and blood...." RIP My sweet angel 😇 January 28, 2024...I put flowers around your cycad where your precious ashes lie, put new solar lights that shine brightly all night and a jasmine scented candle burns as l remember you. Always in our hearts our sweet little girl 😢💔💔😢

[ms.pizarroshane]

God is kind not because you are kind but because He is.
