400+ students gather outside a cancer-stricken teacher's house to sing a song of worship

Musician Tim McGraw shared this emotional video, captured by his friend, via his social media pages.

Ben Ellis, a teacher of Latin and Bible studies at Christ Presbyterian Academy, a private school in Nashville, Tennessee, US, was diagnosed with an aggressive form of cancer last year.
When news hit some days ago that he has decided to discontinue his treatments, more than 400 students of the school and faculty members traveled to Ellis' home to pray and worship with him.


Ellis' five kids are also students at the school. A teacher who was present there, said:

 "This was a spur of the moment decision to go.. Students were in the middle of class..some taking quizzes and tests. But they dropped everything for a bigger lesson on life, love, community, compassion."
