It's because of his love for you

that led me here tonight.

- You really believe that?

- Yes, I do.

And even though we don't

understand it sometimes,

God is at work in

our lives every day

to sow his plan

that he has for us.

You must be hungry.

How about we grab something

to eat and talk, my treat.

- Sure.

The flood of your spirit

Rushes me deeper

than waters wild

Come by the river

Showers of mercy that

wash over me, over me

All that I long for

and all that I need

Is hands of glory

All that I hope for,

all my heart desires, Lord

Is just one moment

A glimpse of glory

- Hello?

- Hey, Dad.

- Jade, where are you?

I've been looking

all over for you.

- You've been looking for me?

- I haven't been a real

good father to you.

When your mother left, that's

when you needed me most

and I wasn't there for you.

I'm sorry, Jade, I love you.

- You still love me?

- Baby girl, I love you,

it's just you and me

and we're gonna get

through this together.

All that I hope for,

all my heart desires,

Lord, is just one moment

A glimpse of glory

- Bye.

- Bye.

- I shouldn't have

let you go like that.

- Wait.

Here's your Bible back.

- No, I want you to have it.

- Thank you.

All that I long for

and all that I need

Is a glimpse of glory

All that I hope for,

all my heart desires

Lord, is just one

moment, a glimpse of glory

All that I long for

And all that I need

And all that I long for

Glimpse of glory

Glimpse of glory

Glimpse of glory

Glimpse of glory

- Thank you, God.

Thank you for Jade.

If it means saving her life,

coming to this

city was worth it.

And thank you for my friends,

Samantha and Nevaeh, they're

always there when I need them,

even if they're hours away.

And Michael, thank you for him.

He's given me hope

that I thought I lost.

And lastly, thank

you for my parents.

Thank you for the time I

got to spend with them.

Thank you for the lessons

I learned from them

that help me, even

now that they're gone.

Thank you for

helping me understand

that they're always with me.

Tell them I love them.

Just tell them for me.

Thank you for never

leaving me, God.

Thank you.

- I'm sorry I took

so long to get you.

Roger, I was trying

to calm him down.

- How is he?

- He's passed out on the couch.

He will feel it

tomorrow, though.

- What was he talking about?

He said he lost his baby girl.

- Your mother had a hard time

getting pregnant with you.

- I've heard that.

- I had problems, too.

And finally, after what

seemed like forever of trying,

I got pregnant and two weeks

later, Carol got pregnant, too.

- I didn't know that.

- Me and your mother thought

it was the best thing

that could ever happen.

For the kids to grow

up and be best friends,

just like we were but our

little daughter didn't make it.

- I'm so sorry.

- It's not your fault

and as much as Roger

says it is, it's not.

It's just hard to look at you

and think of what

could have been.

That's why Roger is

the man he is today

and the woman I am.

We never let it go

and we blamed God

for the loss of our daughter.

I wasn't sure

about you moving in

but when I saw you

help our neighbor

and you took food to

the girl in the park,

you didn't stop living but

we did, we stopped living.

- It's not too late, Aunt Pam.

- I can't apologize to Carol.

And Roger, he's so far gone.

I don't think I'll

ever get him back.

- You have to have faith.

- I have Faith,

she's right here.

- Pam?

Pam?

Faith?

- Hey Caleb, what are

you doing this weeekend?

- I don't know, me and the

boys might go to the mall.

- That sounds fun,

you wanna go, too?

- Yeah, we should totally go.

- I think we should.

- I might hit y'all up.

But I'll catch you all later.

- Alright.

- Bye.

- Oh, I'm sorry.

- Wait, I heard you

sing in the music hall.

It was fantastic.

- You were the one

that sang at church

the other week, right?

You did really good.

- Yeah, you should join

the music club here.

We could really use your talent.

- Really?

- Yeah.

- I don't know what

I'm doing here.

I don't even know what to do.

- Roger?

Is that you?

- Ah, I was just leaving.

- Well if you came in here,

there must be a reason.

- I don't know

what I'm doing here.

- Some people come for guidance.

Roger, I've lived next

door to you for years

and I've never seen you

come in here before.

You seem so upset.

Do you wanna talk about it?

- I think I lost my wife.

I messed up bad.

- And you want forgiveness.

- It's too late for that.

- It's never too late

for forgiveness, Roger.

That's what the love and the

grace of God is all about.

- I don't even know

if I believe in God.

- So, you came in here,

set down in this pew,

in this sanctuary,

trying to convince me

to convince you otherwise?

No, Roger, God is

all about forgiveness

and I think that's

why you came in here.

This is the perfect

place to find it.

May I pray for you

and your family?

- I'm so sorry, I can change.

I promise you, I will change.

- Hey, you should

come to the concert.

Y'all should come

to the concert.

- Oh no, we are

not going to this.

- What are you doing

this weekend, Michael?

- I don't know--

- Hey, you should come

to the concert, you too.

- This place is huge.

- Yeah, do you think we should

have tried someplace smaller?

- Michael took care of it.

This is the first time

I've seen it, too.

- Do you guys think we'll

be singing to an empty room?

- If that's what we have to do.

- How much longer?

- Just a few more minutes.

- Remember, we do this for

his praise, not theirs.

We glorify him with our songs,

regardless of how

many people show up.

Well, let's pray.

Dear God, thank you

for your goodness,

your mercy, and your grace.

Help us carry these wonderful

gifts in our own hearts.

May your will be done, even

if we can't see your plans.

Lead us, even if we don't

understand where we're going.

Thank you for bringing

us where we stand today,

here on this stage.

We will glorify

you with our songs.

We will sing our

heart's desires.

In your name, we pray, Amen.

When I think about the Lord,

How he saved me,

how he raised me,

How he filled me

with the holy ghost,

How he healed

me to the utmost,

When I think about the Lord,

How he picked me up

and turned me around,

How he placed my

feet on solid ground,

When I think about the Lord,

How he saved me,

how he raised me,

How he filled me

with the holy ghost,

How he healed me to the utmost

When I think about the Lord,

How he picked me up

and turned me around,

How he placed my

feet on solid ground,

It makes me wanna shout

Hallelujah, thank you Jesus,

Lord, you're worthy

of all of the glory

And all of the honor

and all of the praise

It makes me wanna shout

Hallelujah, thank you Jesus,

Lord, you're worthy

of all of the glory

And all of the honor

and all of the praise

When I think about the Lord,

How he saved me,

how he raised me,

How he filled me
