TobyMac - 21 Years

[@tobymacmusic]

“21 Years” is a song I wrote about the recent passing of my firstborn son, Truett Foster McKeehan. I loved him with all my heart. Until something in life hits you this hard, you never know how you will handle it. I am thankful that I have been surrounded by love, starting with God’s and extending to community near and far that have walked with us and carried us every day. Writing this song felt like an honest confession of the questions, pain, anger, doubt, mercy and promise that describes the journey I’m probably only beginning. The rest is yet to come. One thing I know is that I am not alone. God didn’t promise us a life of no pain or even tragic death, but He did promise He would never leave us or forsake us. And I’m holding dearly to that promise for my son as well as myself.

We love you Toby. Prayers for you and your family. God bless.

TobyMac - what a beautiful tribute to your son and your God! May God walk with you in your grief and bless you for helping others with theirs.❤️🙏❤️

[@wiechers77]

Dear Toby, this is a beautiful tribute to your son. My heart aches for you and your family. The lyric about him being on loan really tugged at my heart, we never know how long we get to have our loved ones with us, but thank you Jesus that we will see them again one day. God bless you 🙏❤

@@horsecrazymorgan3409 so? My grandfather was a super religious person until my grandmother got sick and eventually passed. It happened when I was extremely young but my father said my grandfather lost all his faith the moment she fell ill and became bitter. The fact you cannot comprehend other individual's emotions just proves that you have never felt such sadness.

[@peggycox2479]

Lost my daughter in 4 months to an aggressive cancer in her later 20’s with 2 lil ones. But my faith never failed, because I knew God would heal her here or she would be healed with him. No more pain, or scars, just in his arms and each day I KNOW we will be together again ❤❤❤

Blessings to you and your family be very careful with people claiming to be TobyMac, I don't think the real musician would write in little increments and keep coming at you.😮

God bless you and your family through your daughters passing. I pray she is fully healed in the arms of the Lord, and I pray that your heart finds rest, peace, comfort, in the arms of Jesus. He is there for you, always, forever. Bless you.

[@tryphenarose384]

I lost my baby brother at the age of 8 in a car accident. My parents crumbled mentally and physically after that. My childhood was rough and as a result, I became a broken atheist with no hope for my life. God was the ONLY thing that healed my heart and it's been 5 years since I've surrendered my life to Him. He healed me and I haven't cried for my brother since. This song however, brought me to tears, thinking of my bro being in the arms of Jesus. I'm so thankful for the hope that rests in Him alone! Praise God! Thank you Toby Mac for making this beautiful song.

@Kevin Smith just because there is 4200 religions in the world doesn't mean one of them can't be true. one of the best ways to tell a religion is true or not is to look into the claims the religion makes to see if it's true. and just because Christianity started over 2000 years ago doesn't mean that it's false. the God who started Christianity been around forever. Christianity started as a Jewish sect.

[@tyember6641]

@Kevin Smith bro if I could put my hands on you and make you feel even an ounce of this man's pain... You're pathetici actually pitty how lesser of a human being you really are. His people are chossen, you are not. His people are eternal, you are not. His people may be struck down but never destroyed, you will be. As for T Mac and his family they will be reunited, you will only be United with darkness because you have no substance to your being. You're empty, void of light, and yet our Jesus still offers you salvation, yet you'd rather be a demon/troll who gets off on our there's pain. How low, vile like the serpent who sent you. Repent or be cast into hell.

[@tyember6641]

@Kevin Smith yes a child of the most high, you are a child of hate, you claim our truth is a fairytell but what is your truth? Is hate you're truth? Or suffering? Pain even? No that's this family's truth they lost a child and it brings him comfort to consult a God that actually loved him and you want to bash him. You're a bad person and you're going to suffer more from lesser things than tmacs family cause you're weak. You have no substance, bland and bitter.

The emotion in this song is powerful enough to make a childless teenage girl feel the pain of a father who lost his son. The line "catch you when you steal my shoes" probably hit me the hardest, as it reminded me of all the times I stole my mom's shoes before my feet got to be bigger than hers and all the times I continually "borrow" her leggings, socks, dance clothes, etc. I loved the ending, how even in the grief he was able to thank God for the years he did have with his son. It gives me hope that I'll be able to hold on to joy and not let all my insignificant little hurdles bog me down.

Our daughter Katelyn died at 21, 10 years ago. I have to be honest, I was very depressed, so much so that I found myself sitting on the side of my bed many times rocking, crying, and praying asking the Father why. Each day was I felt God's arms always wrapped around me and speaking peace into my spirit. Her dad felt the same way. We just didn't understand. We didn't realize that God was ministering to us the whole time. At some point, my oldest spoke words of truth to me. She said, "Mom, You don't need to understand why Kate went to be with the Lord right now, but the Lord and she would want you to live and give witness to what He's done since she's with Him in paradise. You will see her again!" Those words said in love broke the yoke of oppression that was like a dark cloud over my life. I reached out for help and through that help began to help others through the "club that no one wants to be in." We've been able to wrap our arms around other parents who will walk a similar path after they lost their child that we walked and how God began to not let us live the same life we lived before as a family, but a different one that totally changed our perspective. God's will be ministering to you along the way, Toby and family, and I pray you'll continue to feel his presence as you move forward one step at a time. Praying that the Lord would pour out his love in you. Much love, Deb

How are you?

[@sharonr2121]

Hallo! Please read the Bible, spread the Gospel, and pray as much as you can every day. Don't stress yourself out or refuse to rest when tired, but with the virus, the prophecy of peace with Israel coming true, and legitimate celebration of sins, we don't know how late or soon God's children will be raptured, so surrender your worldly desires to God and ask Him for discernment and answers. When you are tempted, rebuke the evil within you in the Name of Christ. Bless your days by declaring that God will prosper you and others. Use your tongue only to bless, and not curse. Satan tells people that they are unable, and tries to condemn them and whisper excuses for sin to them. Remember that when he does so, and cast him out in the Name of Christ.

My One True Love, My Son, went to heaven on February 3, 2019. I heard your song only 1 time on KLOVE & it touched my heart. I actually broke down on my drive. Today I watched the video & the only comfort I have is knowing my Jacob was & is a child of God! He is in Gods arms & in my heart forever. This is by far the worst my heart has ever had to face. He was my only child, my mothers only grandchild and the 1st person in ALL my family to go to heaven. This is so hard, every day, but I honestly feel if it wasn't for the love & peace that was given to me by Jesus, I would probably be so miserable. I know Jacob is dancing on streets of gold & this is the only thing that comforts me. I trust you Lord, I love you Lord & I thank you for blessing me with 19 beautiful years with my Jacob Reino Montgomery. All my Hope is in you Lord.

I will never forget the image of him being wheeled away to the helicopter as my wife and I sat there helpless. God performed a miracle and our son is alive today. I have watched this song over a dozen times and still can’t get through it. I can feel that emptiness all over again every time I hear it. I don’t think those scars will ever truly go away.

Anyone to who's not a believer of The Lord Jesus Christ I think you should turn to Him before you die, or He comes back and al l you need to do is believe with your heart and confess with your mouth and repent of your sins John 3:16 for God so loved the world that He gave His one and only son that who so believe in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life I'm not forcing I just love you enough to tell you that. because as I'm writing this, I'm not doing my homework I want you to go to heaven not hell

[@danielbeltran4174]

Ryan, I'm in the same situation. So many times I've thought of that but the love that my parents have for me is too much of a deterrent for me. That would ruin their lives forever and bring so much pain but sometimes life is so difficult. Then the Lord comes and lift me up but those moments of darkness are really hard.

[@juliegoldsmith6831]

This wasn't even my son and this song brought me to tears thinking how hard each day has been and will be as you and the Mrs. wait to see your child again, God bless your family and I'm sure this song will help others.

Saturday it’s been exactly 2 weeks since Dri left us. My only child, my son Dri was 21. He was my world, we lived and did everything together, we travelled the world and dreamt together. He was my son, best friend, soulmate and advisor. Your song “21 Years” is a masterpiece of solace, every word consoles me. “God has you in heaven, but I’ve you in my heart…thank you Lord for my beautiful son.” My Dri was a kind hearted, a most loving being, humble, hard working goals-oriented focused kid. Why did he have to go so soon and tragically so?! Nothing makes sense, but prayers and music. Till we meet again my Dri. Mama loves you forever. Help me God💔😭❤️🤲🏽

The greatest man in history is Jesus. He had no servants, yet they called him master. He had no degree, yet they called him teacher. He had no medicines, yet they called him healer. He had no army, yet king's feared him. He won no military battles, yet committed no crime, yet they crucified him. He was buried in a tomb, yet He lives Today Amen 🙏 Copy paste and spread this all over

In 2017 I lost one of my best friends who was like a brother to me. He was 16. This year we would both would have and turned 21. This song both fills me up and breaks me down at the same time. I got the 21 years my friend couldn’t. his 22nd birthday is actually in a month. He was always smiling and joking in the hard times. I don’t exactly know if he knew Jesus but I’d do anything to go back and tell him about him and give him one more hug and never let him go. 💜✝️

[@timothy4471]

Who would dislike a song that was written for someone's dead son? That's just cruel.

[@lyndagruen2047]

Depends on your perspective. Some folks might not find it appropriate to have children placed so much in the limelight. Y'know, the appearance of exploitation or a denied childhood. It may not have been like that - I don't know - but when someone is a high-profile artist, folks are going to pay more attention to the public image than the whole picture.

[@mitchiehawaii2703]

"Did he see you from a long way off, running to him with a father's heart, did you wrap him up inside your arms and let him know that he's home?" Those lyrics make me imagine a scenario in my head where his son is walking through a tunnel of light and he can see the silver city from a far glistening and so beautiful, then a being of bright white light approaches him and reveals himself to be Jesus and hugs him, his son has a tear streaming down his face, but a tear of joy because he knew he made it home. Jesus wraps his arm around his shoulder and they walk off into the light toward the green meadows.

I had an accidental overdose at 27 years old. The guy I was with was dead at feet when I awoke from a coma like 8 hours. Half my body was paralyzed for a week. I never understood how I survived. Recently having started my walk with the lord, it’s starting to make sense. My time wasn’t up, there was more left for me to do. I feel so blessed to have found faith, raised a family and have the chance to introduce others to Christianity. Seeing Toby in concert recently was part of my journey, I left the stadium, filled with love, and purpose.
