Mercy Me has captured the truth true Christians are looking to find, with their song “I Would Die For You”, written about BJ Higgins, a boy who was a man wise beyond his years. It talks of how a person’s life can become clear once they realize the importance of being willing to give their life for God. You feel a closeness to this emotional story that draws you into the message this boy gave his life to share, one of love, hope and being willing to give up your life to spread the Gospel of Jesus to all the nations. The melodic flow of the music takes you on a journey, to capture the essence of God. One can only hope that their relationship with God is this real. Heaven welcomed a hero home September 26, 2005, when BJ Higgins met the Father, he will not be forgotten. If you would like to take up the torch, go to http://www.thegofoundation.com/ where Mercy Me is donating 100% of the money generated by this song to send students into the mission field.
