This song brings me to tears every time I hear it. I cannot even sing it in church anymore because of my emotions. This rendition is no exception, as I am in tears writing this comment. As a retired emergency department/trauma nurse, I brought my faith and religion with me to work everyday. There were many times that I literally washed the feet of the poor and downtrodden because of the deplorable conditions they lived in. Similarly, good people get into trouble by no fault of their own. I was but a vehicle for God's love when I cared for patients. Thank you for placing this video online.

Beautiful! i came here because I'm critically ill; I have an incurable degenerative muscle disease. The Lord woke me up at 2:58 am playing this in my head.

This was played at my wedding in 2005 and then at my husband’s funeral 3 months ago. I
The video shows up in YouTube and I feel like it’s my husband reaching out to me.

My father-in-laws funeral. The Catholic school choir sang this, sweet, angelic children voices. 1996 and I still tear up.

If it makes you cry... that's not a bad thing. It touches you that deeply. Best compliment you can pay God and the music that provides such emotion. Throw your hands in the air sing at the top of your lungs and cry God's got you wrapped up!

[CarolynKhoury]

I have listened to this song about 50 times. And I am so moved every time.

I get very emotional with the singing of this great hymn. My precious deceased husband’s very favorite hymn. I am crying now. So beautiful. I sang it to my deceased husband as he was transitioning from life to death.

My grandparents would have loved this.. thankyou

[Beverly-zh]

This is my favorite song, when I die I want it sung at my funeral. At church when I hear 416 it brings tears to my eyes, love it to the end, even on the radio on Saturday or Sunday morning I just stop what I doing raise my hands and sing, very inspiring

Hermosa y muy melodiosa y delicada versión de esta canción. El Señor bendiga con creces a cada integrante de este hermoso grupo vocal. Saludos y bendiciones desde Entre Ríos, Argentina.

I am sitting here with tears streaming down my face for the difficulty i am having with my youngest child a son who is 18 yrs old and has fallen into despair of peer pressure and low self esteemm. They were diagnosed at 17 with Bi polar 1 and have struggled tremendously the last year. They are being on gifted and have a a soul of a sweet caring loving individual i just pray they can come to peace with everything going on in their life including being accountable and that eventually they may see the light and reach out and i pray we one day have a good relashionship again. I miss my boy tremendously but i have not lost faith that he is in there . Pls pray for us ty.

Whenever I hear this I think of my husband looking up and saying: "Here I am Lord" as he finished his tour in Vietnam and decided to go into the mission field in India. He spent 13 years there teaching the people he loved so much and planting churches and schools so they could go teach others.

We just got a new priest at our church this week. This song is so fitting for the occasion. Change is never easy, but to have this song play at his first weekend masses here just hit differently.

When I first heard this many years ago I was in a dilemma I had two job offers. One in my professional field one very outside my comfort zone..We practiced this in my choir practice and realised I had already chosen I chose the day I committed my life to HIM.
So I left my vet practice of retrained in social care and addiction support services.
For over 25years I worked within my faith group in our social services department.
I loved my work .I retired recently and was stunned by the turn out at my retirement.
One of my best friends Sing this and turned around to me and said you have answered. Here the proof and the doors opened and in walked a group of my ex services users everyone of them now dependence free and believers.I wept very grateful tears. He's still leading me and I'm still following
