I never quite understood people’s obsession with negativity and hate . Like why are you so deeply rooted in purposely misunderstanding people to drive your hate? Lots of people woke up today with change and optimism on their mind. If you wake up and watched the inauguration or posting hateful comments under, you need to reevaluate your life and your life’s purpose.

Even the Secret Service guys have tears in their eyes. They are human just like the rest of us ❤️💙

Who didn't watch the video and went straight to the comments?

I'm not a religious guy, and never will be, but this song gives me hope about self-improvement of other people who need hope more than ever. I see this song from a human perspective rather than a religious perspective. Because not everything is involved in the works of a higher power.

This country is a great country no matter what...God is watching over us all, God bless America our home sweet home. Nothing is eternal, pain, fear, anger, disappointment and shock, THIS TOO SHALL PASS...God is watching over all of us

I am not a democrats, I am American and it's time for us to unite .. yes we have major differences but make no mistake UNITED WE STAND DIVIDED WE FALL🇺🇲💪

[DH-szvg]

Beautiful!! Bravo !!! Finally what America should look like ...diversity and hopeful and peaceful!!!!

[rangerjustice]

This was a moment we needed as a nation.

I am a 2 time Trump voter here & just wanted to say I wish the best for president Biden & vp Harris & this countries future. Just because I disagree with the policies they propose doesn't mean we can't get along in spite of our differences & it doesn't mean that either side is defined by their worst version of supporters. I'll give Biden a chance. I just hope that all sides can give others a chance that have differing views including & especially the media. God bless

We all need grace more than ever in this time of uncertainty and imminent trouble.

[Thomas-hefr]

Garth Brooks' performance was just that - Amazing Grace this was just perfect, so moving especially with everything that is going on... There will be better days. "hope is what keeps humanity going"

About thirty years ago,
Mr. Brooks gave a large cash donation to a Los Angeles Community outreach organization.
He did this because the director was a 'childhood friend'.

I, a Black man, have been a Garth Brooks fan!!!!

As a Brit I have always admired the fact that the US President represents all Americans. Some of the comments on here make me very sad, despite your differences you are still each other’s fellow Americans. I hope there is healing. From the outside your political differences don’t seem that great.

Garth Brooks is a beautiful legend. True patriot! USA!! USA!!! 🇺🇸 🇺🇸 💪

[bruble]

Seeing today’s peaceful inauguration and all the men and women who swore to protect our country, our democracy, and our constitution made me so proud to be an American. And my heart goes out to all the people (secret service, national guard, military, FBI, local and federal police) who are essentially risking their lives to protect our new president and ensure a peaceful transition of power...thank you for what you do. 🙏 God bless America and our leaders. Only in unity can we continue to be the United States of America 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸

[verleneaevans]

Love his voice and the words of this song.

[HarrisD]

That was pure class. Garth is a legend.

[kich]

My absolute favorite!!! From his jeans and cowboy hat, the hymn, and to his exuberant exit. That's the USA we aspire to be, strong, humble, united, unpretentious and hopeful.

[paulgonzales]

Garth Brooks proved that he really does have friends in low places.

From Europe, concretely from Spain, congratulations to all the Americans, we wish you all the best with your new president, we love you. 👏❤
