Craig Morgan shared a touching ode to his late son, Jerry Greer, with the release of “The Father, My Son and the Holy Ghost” on Aug. 30. The new tune, which Craig penned and produced, honors Jerry, who passed away after a boating accident in July 2016 at the age of 19.

“As difficult as this song was to write and as difficult as it is to sing, it gives me strength in my faith in God,” says Craig via Twitter. “My hope is it does the same for others.”

Before releasing the song, Craig performed the toughing tribute on the Grand Ole Opry stage, most notably on the night of Luke Combs’ induction on July 16
