JJ Heller - Neighbor (Official Music Video

Neighbor
By JJ Heller, David Heller, and Andy Gullahorn

Sometimes it’s easier to jump to conclusions
Than walk across the street
It’s like I’d rather fill the blanks with illusions
Than take the time to see

You are trying to close the back door of your car
You are balancing the groceries and a baby in your arms
You are more than just a sign in your front yard
You are my neighbor

I can get so lost in the mission
Of defending what I think
I’ve been surfing on a sea of opinions
But just behind the screen

You are grateful that the work day’s finally done
You are stuck in miles of traffic, looking at your phone
You are tryin’ to feel a little less alone
You are my neighbor

When the chasm between us feels so wide
That it’s hard to imagine the other side
But we don’t have to see things eye to eye
For me to love you like you are my neighbor
My neighbor

Oh, to fear the unfamiliar
Is the easy way to go
But I believe we are connected more than we might ever know

There’s a light that shines on both the rich and poor
Looks beyond where we came from and who we voted for
‘Till I can’t see a stranger anymore
I see my neighbor
May my heart be an open door to my neighbor
You are my neighbor

Watched this with my kids today, and my 4 year old, who is non-verbal, sang out "my neighbor" at the end. I guess it resonated with him, too.

The world need to hear the lyrics to be reminded of what it's all about.

This song should be played across America and the world. A beautiful testimony and evidential expression of faith. "Love your neighbour as yourself".

I played this at my National Good Neighbor Day Gathering on September 28th. A tear-jerker for real. Not a dry Eye in the house.

Love the song and the video. It really drives home the point that we are all each other's neighbors, everyone of us and reminds me that Jesus commanded us to "love your neighbor as yourself."

[maureenwanjiru]

I love the song, thanks JJ. You're impacting the world. I thank God for you and your family.
I had the song from Family tv hear in KENYA. GOD BLESS YOU
THE WORLD NEEDS SUCH SONGS

[Helloimkyraa]

These days can often carry the weight of so much division, with that in mind, this song is incredibly moving and the images are so diverse and beautiful. We're all here together, most of us doing what we feel is best for us and our families and though we may not see eye to eye, it's important to remember to give grace and see the world through lenses of love. Thank you so much JJ! You're truly an inspiration!

Love&light from Texas ✨️
