'The Father, My Son, and the Holy Ghost' Craig Morgan Official Music Video
The lyrics to this touching song were inspired by the tragic loss of Craig’s son, Jerry. In 2016, 19-year-old Jerry died in a boating accident. The young man had just graduated high school and was looking forward to starting college.
The unexpected death sent shockwaves through the entire Morgan Family. But three years later, Craig felt a call in the middle of the night and the words to "The Father, My Son and The Holy Ghost” were born.
“I cried and cried and cried until I passed out on the floor
Then I prayed and prayed and prayed till I thought I couldn't pray anymore
And minute by minute, day by day, my God,
He gave me hope I know my boy ain't here but he ain't gone”
Craig described how the lyrics of the song came to him in the middle of the night. He got up from his bed and started to write down the word.
It took him less than four hours to finish the entire song. But Craig was unsure if he would ever be able to actually sing the heart wrenching words in public. He debuted the song at the Grand Old Opry and barely made it to the end without breaking down.
That’s when he encountered fellow country artist Ricky Skaggs backstage who urged Craig to continue to perform this song. Ricky told him that the world needed to hear these powerful words.
“In the mornings I wake up, give her a kiss, head to the kitchen
Pour a cup of wake-me-up and try to rouse up some ambition
Go outside, sit by myself but I ain't alone
See, I've got the Father, my son, and the Holy Ghost”
