Phil Robertson and his family, of “Duck Dynasty” reality show fame, recently gave a massive Christmas gift to another family — a new home.

And the exchange apparently overcame the Robertson patriarch with emotion to the point where he couldn’t stop the tears, The Blaze reported.

“I can’t think of a more deserving woman of a new house that Theressa Lewis,” Mr. Robertson said, on a recent episode of the A&E hit show. “Most people just think in terms of money, but it’s way more than that. Loving God and loving your neighbor are the two greatest commands of the Bible.”

Mr. Robertson then gathered together with his and Ms. Lewis’ family in prayer — and broke into tears.

“Father, we just give you a great big thank you for Theressa and all of her family,” Mr. Robertson said, in the video. “Father, as you know, I don’t cry that much, but on behalf of my sister and her kids and her grandkids, just hard to stop the tears.”
