David, he fought for a long time.
I've known David probably ten years or better.
And ever since I've known him, he's had health trouble.
He's always been sick.
And he's just fought long and hard.
And I went and saw him.
I was in West Virginia.
And I went up [Bb] there and they [E] called me and told me that
David was really bad sick.
It was a Friday night.
I [Eb] visited with my family that Saturday day.
And [A] me and my wife and kids, we got in the car.
We drove back to North Carolina.
[E] And I got to the hospital [Db] late that night.
And I went up there and seen him.
I sat with him [N] and Mr.
Reeder for a couple hours.
He slept a lot.
He finally woke up.
And I just got to talk to him for a little while.
He looked at me.
He told Chris the same thing, too.
He said, [C]
I'm going to get better [Eb] one way or the other.
He's either going to get better here, or he was going
to [B] be healed in heaven.
He's healed today.
[E] I believe that with all my heart.
[N] He told me, [Eb] David had been sick [F] so many times.
And we always expected him to just bounce back.
He always did.
And he told me, he said, Mike, I want the Plowboys
singing [A] at my funeral.
And I said, [Gb] David, we're not going to talk like [Dm] that.
I said, we're not even going to [F] plan that out.
[A] He said, well, that's all right.
I got it planned out.
[D] The Lord got it planned out.
[B] He was ready to go.
He was [Bbm] tired.
But he [B] asked, we followed through with his wishes.
[N] I think he'd have beat us if we didn't sing at the funeral.
But I [A] got to looking on the internet, and I found this
song, [G] and I [Eb] don't think David had ever heard it.
And it just blessed my heart.
When I heard it, I said, that's [N] David Murph.
And it's a song about a Plowboy.
And I hope you all enjoy it and get a blessing out of it.
