Although 2017 has been a difficult for the nation, Chris Stapleton’s “Broken Halos” continues to be a bright light at the end of the tunnel. During the 2017 CMA Awards, the country singer took the stage to perform the emotional track. “Broken Halos” was written about people who died before their time and brought several audience members to tears. He and his wife, Morgane, used this unique opportunity to honor those who died this year, especially the victims of the Las Vegas mass shooting and country artist Troy Gentry, who passed away in a helicopter accident.

“Broken Halos” Lyrics
Seen my share of broken halos
Folded wings that used to fly
They’ve all gone wherever they go
Broken halos that used to shine
Angels come down from the heavens
Just to help us on our way
Come to teach us, then they leave us
And they find some other soul to save
Seen my share of broken halos
Folded wings that used to fly
They’ve all gone wherever they go
Broken halos that used to shine
Broken halos that used to shine
Don’t go looking for the reasons
Don’t go asking Jesus why
We’re not meant to know the answers
They belong to the by and by
They belong to the by and by
Seen my share of broken halos
Folded wings that used to fly
They’ve all gone wherever they go
Broken halos that used to shine
Broken halos that used to shine
Broken halos that used to shine
Broken halos that used to shine
