I'm not religious but you know what I have zero problem with U2's songs having christian themes throughout. There's nothng wrong with it. What I find funny is that anyone would take this song to be so literal. It's not about a girl, it's not about religion, it's not about society, it's not about love.... oh wait a minute it's about all those things. Open your ears, eyes and hearts people. You don't have to be Christian to get the true meaning fo this song. You simply have to be human.
I don't like religion. I just love God. The concept of grace is beautiful . I too cry when I hear this lovely tune. Bono said it best - all great music goes towards God. Or comes directly from God. Such a beautiful video thx for posting.
congratulations...you just made a metal head cry. i dropped my pride in favor of pride in righteousness. i left the lord for a while too, but He called me back and i came so now i shall weep for His grace. thank you
U2 rocks it! Grace. Yes. AWESOME. Jesus peeps. It's true. Look back and listen. Love it! Great song! Laterz peeps! :) We're not perfect, we just love our Lord that's all. And Grace is the key to peace. :D
@ChristFirst116 Thank you for that information...It's a beautiful song (a favourite as well) ; I'd of never guessed a book was the inspiration for the words. I must get that book!
in order to leave a comment I had to sign up for a YT account - your video was worth 'not doing it later'. So this is my first post on YT. I want to say thank you, for the beautiful words - I thought I would see the song lyrics, but what appeared humbled me, as much as U2 themselves do. I received an answer... in writing. Thank you.
people are funny. i'm a christian, but it cracks me up to imagine a world that DOESN'T think we're idiots for believing what we do. i mean come on, have you read the bible? it does seem like a bunch of jews on acid in the eyes of anybody who doesn't believe. that being said, don't be surprised when you are reviled by the world. they reviled him, they'll revile you! :)
I have this album. This video you have made is one of the best videos on this site, and it is beautiful. I love the talk between the teenage girl and God. Bono is a genius.
i really liked this album because it was u2 singing everything from there hearts. they are a great rock band and after all these years they are still selling out concert. love bono want him to, hey i can dream
I don't want to start a discussion here, because it is pointless, but it is important for you to know that God' doesn't says that. He says, believe in me! I DONT WANT YOU TO BE TORTURED FOR EVER. Do not think, He wants you dead, He wants you alive and loved. That's why he wants you to turn to Him, for He loves you.
@paddymourinho God does love you...He loves everyone, but abhors sin. what sin can you imagine that is good for you, honestly? forget about the 10 Commandments and just LOVE...everything else falls into place. think about this...it's really very simple.
what you don't seem to understand is that God is SO good that the human race is evil in comparison. That means we all have sin in our lives. (even thinking an unkind thought is sin) God gave a remedy for sin through his son dying on the cross. Many don't like this remedy. Sin is like a bad job, your wages is death. Jesus paid the price for you through his death, but only if you believe, confess him as Lord and do your best to turn from sin and follow Him. Read 2 peter 3 verse 9. God bless.
by the way, if God is such a control freak then He would make you worship Him. He gives you the choice of loving Him and following Him but He only wants you to follow Him if you want to follow Him. He doesn't want you to be a wind up toy. I guarantee one thing, He DOES want a relationship with you. I liken the cross to when a parent sees their sick child, they love them so much and want to take their child's place. In this case, God did take your place in His death, but again, do you accept it?
please provide a verse in the bible quoting this statement. you can only quote this and claim it to be a fact if it actually says it. be careful what you say and be sure you have it right before you shout it out. remember we are here to represent Christ in His example. lets be truthful in the words which God has given us.
@paddymourinho there are many interpretations of what hell is...that's not the point. the point is the gift of eternal life for the small price of faith. God will not be happy if you are eternally seperated from Him; He made you to fellowship with Him...What is your alternative? to believe in man? to believe in nothing? it's your choice and no one else's
@geetarbube You are an idiot. If you want to be a christian then fine, but u must believe what it sayes! It sayes "Love me or else you will be tortured forever".
Also if your 'god' wants everyone to be 'saved' why doesnt he come and tell us instead of sending a man 2000 years ago to a rural farming community in the middle east?! Also if your god designed the world why were there 200 million years of dinosaurs, and then he just destroyed them all?
@paddymourinho i never insulted you nor do I have all the answers...that's why they call it faith. believe me, i get angry & frustrated with things in the world and am bewildered by God and question God. 200 million years of dinosaurs cannot be proven nor is it the point to anything. God destroyed all of mankind, too, save for Noah and his family. tell me what you believe...this discussion is kind of one-sided at the moment
@geetarbube all matter is merely energy condensed to a slow vibration, we are all one consciousness experiencing itself subjectively, there is no such thing as death, life is only a dream, and we are the imagination of ourselves. There you go :)
@paddymourinho i often wish that the many death scenes i have investigated were just my imagination...good luck with all that. i obviously wish you no ill will, my friend.
Just admit you dont know, and stop believing in something just cuz it makes u feel fuzzy inside. Then you can say "peace and love" without sounding hypocritical.
What a beautiful & true video you've created...For Grace are ye saved through faith, and not of yourselve it is the gift of God not of works lest any man should boast. Ephesians 2:8,9 I have tears streaming down my face as I write this. God Bless You for making this video, and posting it. I lost my faith for a long time, but I always knew there was a way back to God, and it's the Grace of God that forgives, our stupid mistakes, as it says in1 John 1:9 If we confess our sins...God is awesome.
@THEGREATROBYNIE For crying out loud THIS SONG IS ABOUT A GIRL NAME GRACE!!! Gosh I find you people to be VERY IGNORANT for trying to force your religion on everyone else that came to a video to enjoy a song.
@PopCulture20 It doesn't make a person ignorant if they see the Christian message in this song. The next line to the song is "It's also a thought that changed the world." The song is a parallel between the girl in the song and the concept of grace - just listen. U2 has written several songs about their faith, such as Yahweh, 40, Gloria, If God Will Send His Angels, Falling At Your Feet, etc. There are lots of U2 songs and interviews on YouTube where they are very clear about their faith.
@PopCulture20 You are the ignorant... Clearly you don't know about the TRUE ORIGIN of a lot of Bono songs...What a shame for you... HE IS HUMAN! HE IS CHRISTIAN,
this is a persoanl favourite from them
