Randy Travis - Raise Him Up Lyrics
When I first met his momma
She was just 19
Couldn't say for certain who the father was
I have known him since he was a pup
And I'm gonna raise him up
If you never knew your daddy
Like I never knew mine
It feels like everybody knows you're fatherless
This boy may not be blood of my blood
But I'm gonna raise him up
I'll provide for him
Walk beside of him
I am strong enough
Cause it's time he knew
With a father's love
He can change the world
Ya'll may have to look at joseph
A couple thousand years ago
When he held a newborn baby he named jesus
He said he may not be blood of my blood
Still I'm gonna raise him up
I'll provide for him
Walk beside of him
I am strong enough
I will show him too
What a son can do
With a fathers love
And he will change the world
33 years later
When the son was in his grave
Broken and abandoned by a world he came to save
His real dad said he's mine
Blood of my blood
And I'm gonna raise him up
I'll provide for you
Walk beside of you
I am strong enough
I have seen from you
What a son can do
With a fathers love
One man changed the world
And he can change your world
But you gotta raise him up
Raise him up

Love it xx
Jesus loves you and can give you eternal life. These verses from the Bible explain how you can accept Jesus as your savior (John 3:16, Romans 3:23, 3:10, 5:12, 6:23, 5:8-9, 10:9-10, 10:13, 10:17, 8:28, Ephesians 2:8-9, Hebrews 11:1-3, James 1:17, 2 Peter 3:9-10). If you do, you have a promise from God of resurrecting like Jesus did and eternal life (1 Corinthians 15:51-53, 1 Thessalonians 4:14-17). :)
My brother dad was murdered when he was two months old my dad raised him as one of his own, my dad played the story my brother as a birthday song. Love and family is a strong thing. I love Randy Travis he has been my favorite since a little girl
I have two kids. boy and a girl that are not blood but such an inspiration. wouldn't change it for anything
If its true Randy that you didn't have a father your not alone we all could use it that's probably why this song was giving me such the anxiety.
I played the young randy travis in this one, I remember they had Honey Nut Cheerios on set. The hospital scene was at my old church, cornerstone in San Antonio. also the nurse holding up the baby and in the background in the church was my father as well. Distant yet fond memories
This song really touched my heart
Randy, God gave me this song to write for you, he can still turn your life around if you will just have faith to believe and I sure hope you hear this.

This song is so true, and most males and females can make a baby, but it takes real women to be moms and real men to be fathers. I gave birth to,two sons one daughter then adopted a koren baby I love ❤️ them all this same and when i look at them or talk about them they are all the same. They have given my 9 wonderful grandchildren from 22 years to 10 months. I am blessed i have given then time and they all no matter how old they get still give me time always. Unfortunately the person I married was a good money maker he wasn't the person i know before we were married. It takes more then money to make a family. So now after 46 years i left his lone big house. He is still there and alone so sad.
Heart of the gospel, thanks to Randy Travis. The answer to the question of life!
was blessed to meet a man like this, soo thankful
The most beautiful of beautiful
was in the same boat, but tells a great story in song of life !
This is love!
That was beautiful Randy. Email me will you? I remember a few years back meeting you at church during one of your concerts with John Hagee. You complimented me on wearing a Roy Rogers t shirt. And we talked a few minutes. A couple of years later at The Lancaster Festival in Ohio. I gave you a Roy Rogers and Trigger t shirt. God bless you and I am praying for you.
Thats awesome angel . Man id love to meet him . Been a fan pretty much from day 1 . Hate so bad he had a stroke , but at least he is still here with us .
love this song makes me want to cry it is sad but for most it hits home
This is one of my fav.
RANDY TRAVIS is awesome !!!!!!!!
you got that right
16 people know nothing of love or music
or they missed the like button through their tears!
+Marissa Kaus some people are just too hard to please
This song hits home. Reminds me of my grandparents. They always were there for me and my brother and sister. They were like second parents more than grandparents.
makes me cry xxx love u randy xxxxx xoxox
Fantastic song/hymn.Deeply moved, here in Edinburgh Scotland. First time heard. Definitely not be the last. Very clever song too with the first hidden gospel story. (My own father never got over being illegitimate and being given away by his mother and was embittered by it all his life.)
Bless St. Joseph! Jesus' second father provided for Him so He could provide for us the ultimate Gift.
I love this classic country song
Barneys Christmas
Happy Saturday
if only we all just saw this for the truth it is =D
I love my son Matthew Wankmueller!!!
So inspiring. My wife and I had played it times without number. It encouraged us to do more in our ministry towards the less privilege children.
great song...so much faith
Love this!
Beautiful..... By the way, are you kin to Neal Treadway?
+Betsy Adams first cousins
i love this guy!!!!!!!!!!!!!! this is so true
randy travis mazing voice thats sownd so good
great song if I find a girl that has kids I will raise them as if they were mine
Such a true legend to country music. It breaks my heart that this happened to him after trying so hard to get back on track. Prayers for him and his family.
lost creek rambler right. Was just the devil seeing his faith and trying to throw him off the path....But like his wife said when she asked him while he was in hospital bed if he was ready to let go. Tear streamed down his cheek and squeezed her hand telling her he wasnt bout to give up. He fought the devil and won.
Beautiful song!
Thank you Lord God, for this man & this wonderful song, & his wonderful voice. Please don't take him home yet Lord. We need to hear him sing more wonderful songs to your Glory, so please heal him Lord, in Jesus name, thank you.
Bless him and keep him safe in your hands
Beautiful song great voice, thank you for posting.
Beautiful song sung by a beautiful man who needs all our prayers! God Bless you Randy! God heal you. <3 We need you! <3
Get Well soon Randy!
Wow!!! Just listened to this song. It is so powerful, I cried through most of it. God is so good.
Love this song so much. My oldest son is a stepdad to a little guy and now he's such an awesome father with both of his kids.
This song is fantastic
Truly fantastic words, and how touching goes straight to my heart.
From one of the world's greatest singers.

Beautiful heart felt song.....An amazing blend of the physical and spiritual, that is so like our God to use things we know to understand things we yearn to know about the love of our Heavenly Father.. Thank you, Randy Travis.
this is a beautiful song. it warms the heart and soul thats something only randy knows how to do.
awesome song
Amazing song RT
This is why I love country music. So much emotion that you don't find in very many other genres. Maybe that's why Power Ballads are my favorite music outside of country...
Beautiful!
i cant stop crying
omg im so sorry...im like crying rite now randy im so sorry..im sosososososo sorry randy omg
::(((
RT rules but please Randy, DO NOT drink and drive please You should know better.
Even with the latest incident I still support Randy.
Very nice to all of those without dad's your heavenly Father is there just call on Him and you will be saved and Jesus promised never to leave us or forsake us
2:32 jesus is like, ''excuse me?"
anyone can be a father, it takes someone special to be a daddy
This is a heartfelt song and a blessing for anyone who listens to it. God bless Randy Travis, Mary Fleenor-White, Brownstown, Indiana.
The lady that smiles in the church and moves over is the same that sings at Cornerstone Church. Beautiful voice also.
@MrJoeycaswell All kids have a Father -- God -- but only some kids have a Daddy! wwwDOTfacebookDOTcomSLASHROCKandSHIELD
I just spent Christmas services with President Jimmy Carter in Plains Georgia, at which he played this video, told the story of how he came to learn about it while Turkey hunting on a quiet day not long ago about a mile from his boyhood farm and home in Plains with a quiet day and no action on the hunting front in sight when he played it on his IPod. President Carter said it is now his all time favorite Christian song of any kind! wwwDOTfacebookDOTcomSLASHROCKandSHIELD
I just love this song! It is very inspirational and tells just how much God loved us that he gave us his son Jesus! Thank you for singing such a great song!
Awesome stuff.
Hail Travis another good 1 not surprising
this reaches my heart so much, my daddy may not have been blood of my blood but he raised me up and I thank God every day for that
ur the best singer im your biggest fan
This is song writing at its best, praise God.
i never had a earthly father so i look to jesus as my father!
Randy has sung some of the best gospel songs that has really touched my life. I pray for him. Such a great song and such a wonderful singer. May God bless your soul in a great way. Your my favorite.Forever and ever AMEN :)
I never really listened to this song....It has a wonderful message...
That is one of the most beautiful songs I have ever heard!!! RAISE HIM UP!!!
If we all raised them up on the greatest teacher teachings, heaven on earth could come.
This is kindof embarressing but I wish Randy Travis was my dad. I was a foster child and my real father has told me many times he wants nothing to do with me. I love our Heavenly Father very much but I'm, like many other fatherless people I'm sure, are hurting without a father's love.
Beautiful song. beautiful message. I had fun making this video. Thank you Randy for giving me the opportunity to play the young doctor.
My wife and I work with children and I have to say this song hit me like a ton of bricks! Only God gives words of truth like this through vessels like us. Thank you Randy for listening to Him and sending out his word!
hehe that's me at 1:20 with the newspaper :D
was this done at your ranch if so it is beautiful
I love this song. I hope you will someday do a video of We Fall Down. It brings tears to my eyes!
This is really special.Absolutely love it!
Absolutely beautiful. A true masterpiece. Very well done Mr. Travis
