When Latin and Bible teacher Ben Ellis received the news that his cancer was growing despite treatment, the entire student body of his school came to his house to cheer him up.
Ellis, who taught at Nashville’s Christ Presbyterian Academy, was serenaded by 400 students who gathered outside his window, singing hymns, while he and his wife looked on. A video of the touching moment was filmed by a family friend and uploaded to YouTube.
Country singer Tim McGraw shared the video on his Facebook page, where it received over 28 million views and 43,000 comments.
