My husband was on his bed ridden bed for 6 months. after fighting stage 4 cancer for 4 years. Hospice was involved at this point. Our grandson was playing a few songs for him that they played together many times before. this was the 3rd one he played for him. His breathing became more calm. Papa took 3 last breaths and flew away to Jesus. It was the most wonderful gift. He was not suffering anymore. This song will forever be Papa's song that he flew away to Jesus. I love you Darrell ❤ Be free and happy and beautiful with Jesus 🌿

I always enjoyed this song during my church worship services and solitude moments, but I'm still able to sing only half of the song...because to sing: "Jesus I am so in love with You" is to do so with honesty.
I'm still on my way to being able to finally sing those verses with confidence in my love for Him.
