Chris Stapleton - Daddy Doesn't Pray Anymore [Music Video]

[@tyblood78]

My dad was a Christian, always bringing up the bible, praying for everyone and I mean everyone. From the homeless to the poor to the rich to the civil servants and everyone else in between. He got dementia, then his health deteriorated, I was at his bedside in the hospital and watched him take his last breath, that was one of the hardest fuckin things I ever watched and experienced. All of my siblings had their spouses and children. I’m married to a narcissistic woman so I stood alone. Sorry to get off topic but this song hit the family hard, they said that the song was him, he made his journey to meet my Mom and older brother on October 5th 2023.

Beautiful song brought tears to my eyes how much I love my dad

[@susieramer5444]

This song is moving mountains of my grief from loosing my dad this past week. 💔

[@PetePostma-mi2ft]

Lost my Dad April 19th, 1975 (I was 9) and this song brings me to tears overtime I hear it. But I know my Dad is waiting in Heaven for me. Thanks for putting this out there for everyone.

This song describes just the legacy my dad left to me and my family: his faith, hence the assurance that we will meet again. Love you dad!

When im gone....please play this. I'm a man who felt ever word of this.

[@jonahbooth869]

I lost my Daddy in 1994 and I laugh more than I cry because he was a man who loved his family and wanted the best for us. We grew up poooor but we didn't know it because he and my mom always made a way for us to be happy. I miss him so much. He was the only person in this world that understood me 100. He had zero tact but his words were honest. Live well Daddy, although you stopped praying in 1994,you taught your children how to pray. Blessings

First heard this in Yellowstone, your take on bringing this to life in incredible. I'm not particularly religious, but this is so moving. Thank you.

[@kikisdragon]

It's sad, but it's happy :)

[@debbiemorgan3467]

My daddy went to be with his Lord May 19th. This song fit him perfectly and was played as last song in his service. Thank you Chris for writing this beautiful song.

Beautiful song

Such an amazing song so meaningful 😢

[@GJBOATS]

Thank you for publishing this video. I've been discontected from my father for over 10yrs. I feel the same. God Bless!

[@Cornbeeftaco]

This story is exactly how I feel. It's so overwhelming dealing with this. Packing up your childhood, packing all those memories away. Donate, give to family, toss. Seems that everything in the house has a memory attached to it. Give your parents a call if you haven't yet this week people. You never know when the Last Time talking to them will be that last time, until it is. And it hurts.

My dad died in New York on 9/11 and this song came out that week. I always think of him when I hear Chris sing this song. Thank you for making this.

[@Blessd-savingrace]

This song didn't come out 2001!🤷‍♀️

[@Steve-yo4ld]

Yeah, sorry, this song wasn't released until 2015!✌️

[@MrEddieo1]

Today for Catholics is All Souls day. Of couse I went to church to pray for the dead of my family. Then this song pops up. So appropriate.

[@darthunit78]

Lost my dad in 99 and still miss him so much

[@yadiraflores1227]

I lost my dad almost 6 years ago and it feels like it was just yesterday. I miss him so much 💔

[@miztersport8395]

I miss him.

[@JosephDiveley]

Sometimes I cry - especially when Chris is singing.

[@kathleenalbanese4875]

WOW 😮

[@tarefreeman4458]

The passing on of my dad 3yrs ago still hurts because I was not prepared for it.

[@haileyalexis03]

First let me say I am writing this through tears. The video is simple but perfect.

[@darbyfaccinto4384]

Thanks for the kind words! Yes! Simple can be super powerful in film making.... especially for something like this. I tried to make sure I kept the focus on the song and not with some visual distraction.

Heard this song for the first time today, the first anniversary of my Pop's passing (his yahrzeit). Powerful song that is giving me a poignant soundtrack for a complicated day. I miss my Pop, and hope he finds joy in the family he left. BDE

well done, i cried.

[@jenniferyoung3119]

Yea, me too

[@townsey19]

I never new my dad. My father in-law past away in January unexpectedly, I’m lost for words to describe the pain

[@emilynewton5533]

I cry every time I’m 17 and my dad just passed in July

[@pavelpolska]

Sorry for your loss

[@BeauTylerMakesMusic]

It took me years to stop crying. I hope you're healing.

[@BLT4DTUFF1]

Not even kidding, this song is amazing. My dad passed in 1974 when I was nine years old and I still miss him. After a while it isn't pain over the loss, but in time you'll just wonder what he might think about the man (or woman) you've become. I occasionally will have a dream about my dad and I always wake up feeling a warmth that I choose to believe he leaves behind. I'm sorry for your loss.

[@kushagra_lakhanpal]

i cried after watching your message😭

[@roddies4evr518]

Dads are Our Superman. Sorry for the loss of ur dad

[@jimmyshirley3055]

"Daddy Doesn't Pray Anymore" [Chorus:] Daddy doesn’t pray anymore I guess he’s finished talking to the Lord He used to fold his hands and bow his head down to the floor But daddy doesn’t pray anymore I remember even when the times were bad He thanked Jesus for everything he had For a good wife and three children And the food upon our plates Yeah, everything was right when he said, grace [Chorus] There was a time when we didn’t get along Cause I thought I was right and he was wrong Still when I laid down at night I’d hear him get down on his knees And say a little prayer for me [Chorus] Today I followed daddy down to church And listened to the preacher read God’s word We sang his favorite hymn but daddy didn’t make a sound This afternoon we’ll lay him in the ground But daddy doesn’t pray anymore I guess he’s finally walking with the Lord He used to fold his hands and bow his head down to the floor But daddy doesn’t pray anymore
