There’s no doubt country music can impact lives.
When Dan Smyers and Shay Mooney of Dan + Shay recorded “10,000 Hours” with Justin Bieber, they likely never imagined a now-viral video of a young boy named Rayce singing the song to his baby brother, who has Down syndrome.

The duo took to Instagram to share the adorable video of Rayce holding his brother with the ballad playing in the background while he gently sings, “I’d spend ten thousand hours / And ten thousand more / Oh, if that’s what it takes to learn that sweet heart of yours / And I might never get there, but I’m gonna try / If it’s ten thousand hours or the rest of my life / I’m gonna love you.”
“This is just the sweetest, most heartwarming video ever,” Smyers and Mooney wrote alongside the video. “Thanks to everyone who has tagged us in it, we’ve been watching on repeat and smiling every time.”
