In the summer of 2016, country singer Craig Morgan found himself in the middle of every parent\u2019s worst nightmare. His 19-year-old son, Jerry, passed away following a tubing accident on Kentucky Lake in Tennessee.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

One evening, Craig found himself coping with his heartbreak through song. He told People that he woke up in the middle of the night and started writing the entire chorus of a new song about Jerry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt was 2:30 in the morning and there I was \u2013 singing the entire chorus in my head before I even woke up enough to put the words down on paper.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

That song became what we now know as \u201cThe Father, My Son, and the Holy Ghost.\u201d Craig introduced the song during an appearance at the Grand Ole Opry in July 2019.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The video of Craig\u2019s Opry performance went viral.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When Craig performed the song at the Opry that day, he thought that would be the only time he\u2019d ever sing it. But after he finished, he said he got some encouragement from a country legend to continue to share it with the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBut standing there was Ricky Skaggs, and he told me that I simply had to perform it again. I had to get through this and find a way to share this song with as many people as I could,\u201d he told People.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
