  • Great typography! 

  • my boyfreind adam sang this to me i love this song

  • -3

  • Love this Song!!!!! Its so Awsome!!!!

    -3

  • I LOVE this song!!!!!! :)

  • This song describes perfectly how I feel right now to the point where it is scary...

  • i love this song!(:

  • I love the backaround it's kinda spooky haha :)

  • this is what i fell for god rite now

  • This song puts me in a peaceful place when all else is chaotic...the love, need and vulnerability expressed for Jesus in this song brings light to dark and erases all hopelessness for me. One of my favorites...

  • i never knew this was a Christian song, it's really catchy and that's a good thing. when i heard it on drop dead diva i just couldn't stop playing it! one of the best songs ever in contemporary culture!xx

  • I am not for or angainst any religion. I do believe that some people need saving though, and that anyone can help them, not just God. I hope that others, wether Christian or not, will also see that through this song, and will do something good to help others in need.

  • I am a Christian as well, and it pains me to see Christians who think that they can keep sinning and still think they're going to enter the kingdom of God. We must be like Jesus who focused those who are lost, when they were already found and walked away from the TRUTH

  • I heard this on Drop Dead Diva & I totally thought it was a Christian song!!! Love that He is giving God the glory! :)

  • ^^ screw those guys. this song became famous from drop dead diva NOT organized shitty religion.

  • @benn3633 Why do people like you, who clearly hate religion, come to songs that are considered religious and insult us and our beliefs? I don't go post comments ridiculing you on your favourite videos, so why do you do it to me? I really wish I could listen to my favourite songs without being insulted in the comments by rude people who have nothing better to do than pick on people with different beliefs.

  • @keymeana, Maybe he always comes to songs that are religious even though he hates them because God is trying to tell him something.

  • @benn3633

    What the hell is drop dead diva?

  • @BlackFrostFire101 It's a movie. :)

  • @DeathAngleZoe drop dead diva is a tv show. not a movie...

  • @JackieRB2008 Hahaha, oops. :)

  • haha i got this off of drop dead diva too i love it <3

  • Thank you Drop Dead Diva for introducing me to this beautiful song!

  • i like ur lyrics videos cuz u divide them up like i wuld n also i like the bakground n also how the words cum on the screen GOOD JOB! :]

  • @godsgood4ever I Your Because You I Would And I Background And Come * is it impossible for anybody to spell anymore?! as much as i do luv the way the words cum on the screen an all....

  • i loveeee this song so much because it has so much meaning to it if you really take time to listen to the words. listen to it it might change your whole world upside down :)

  • Found this song after listening to Drop Dead Diva, the most beautiful song I think I have ever heard in my life!

  • I absolutely Loovee this song!!

  • What a beautiful song right from the heart. I love it. 

  • For those of you who say that this song makes them fell calmer, I could not agree more! I am composing a letter to Sam Harris, a dogmatic atheist who hates Christianity (and Isalm- I don't agree in the Muslim faith but I respectively disagree- true def of tolerance) and I need to have the full armor of God and a calm spirit in order to compose it. 

  • Such a beautiful song... Thanks for posting! God bless

  • This describes my life right now. <3

  • I love this song =)

  • Comment removed

  • I LOVE this song I also love the fact that Drop Dead Diva would play a Christian song!

  • This video was just added to a music playlist at JustPlay.fm

  • This is my favorite song in church.

  • My roomate is an Atheist. We've been getting along quite well, but recently we got into a debate over a picture I posted. If she was offended, she didn't show it. Instead she called Christians a bunch of homophobes who follow a jewish zombie and make people kill themselves. I'd rather live my life believing in God and die to know He's not real, than live my life not believing and die to find out He is.

  • @grumpyclouds93 I'm atheist, but I respect your beliefs

    I dislike it when people hold the belief responsible for the personality, like "christians try to shove religion down your throat" or "atheists are fascist and compulsive"

    I'm sorry you had to put up with someone hateful enough to personally attack your religion because you couldn't mutually agree on something, it's no better than homophobia, racism, or sexism

    I understand because I know another atheist in real life who is like that

  • @ZFO3 I'm glad to hear that. We've been living together for a couple months, and I was just shocked she call me that. I wasn't raised to behave that way. I would get the taste slapped out of my mouth if I dared show any bias towards anyone. It was like she didn't know me at all.

  • love this

  • <3

  • I LOVE this song.. <3

  • I am SO glad I know who Jesus is!! He is so wonderful!!! :)

  • A song very nice, really. ^^

  • Like this comment of Drop Dead Diva brought you here. :D

  • @justinnARGH God brought me here. God Bless <3

  • Download free motion backgrounds for your church at our channel!

  • wow i wrote a complimentary comment on this video and it got removed... hmmmmm... another flagged as spam... guess someone doesn't like that I was talking about Jesus on an excellent song uplifting His name.

  • I didnt know shawn mcdonald did this song!!

  • Every day is a day closer to Him and I can't wait to see Him.

  • Sweet! I had never heard of Shawn McDonald before! :-D Glad I found this!

  • i dont want to sin...

    even though i do

    i want to change...

    i need you

    there are no words to explain how much i love you...

    come down i need you here, help me forget my past, dont let me look back, give me your strength God, let me prove to evil you are better...

    i choose you...

    i choose God...

    the greater one

    amen

  • I LOVE THIS SONG GOD IS GREATER THAN ANYTHING!!!!!

  • everyone has different opionion on this song..none is wrong^^ it could be about love/Christ..does not matter..it touches those who listen to it. i'm a christian i think both

  • I feel so at peace with God when I hear this song. This is how I feel all the time. I always want to be closer than I am to God. You can never be too close. But you can be too far. Don't be too far.

  • @youngmommynwife2011 You actually cannot be too far gone. He is always watching over us. He never lets us out of His sight, and does not let us stray farther than an arms reach from Him if we have accepted Him into our hearts and our lives. :) God Bless

  • @youngmommynwife2011 Me too! I love to listen to this song to feel at peace. :)

  • This song brings me peace

  • I always thought this song was about a girl..

  • @ScythePuppet We all have misunderstandings. Do you know what this song true meaning is?

  • Shawn Mcdonald in Oxnard Ca this Saturday August 13, 2011! Go to etix.com or itix.com for tickets.

  • Yes yes yes...

    Thanks shorty for posting.

    ;0)

  • This song brings me to heaven

  • I love the message of this song. The lyrics are perfect. Why would anyone look for color in a shade of gray? Why would anyone look for love in a drop of rain? Why would anyone look for salvation in anything other than Jesus Christ?

  • Another video has 250,000 views too. Making this song have a total of a half of million views at least. Sweet

  • @abcdefg5347 250,000 is a quarter of a million. 500,000 is a half million.

  • @grumpyclouds93 That's what i said. lol

    This video plus the other video equal out to a half million.

  • loved his music since CD#1...Keep it up Shawn...You're awesome!

  • A.W.E.S.O.M.E.

  • Love this song, too bad it is a Christian song, because the lyrics are open to interpretation and say you want to use it for your wedding and Christians there will think it is about god but is being used for a different purpose and for someone who actually exists.

  • @kjh2180 thts rlly rude to say especially for christians...which i am

    i think u should keep ur opinions to urself

  • @kjh2180

    I just wanted to let you know that your opinion of this is song, is okay. It doesn't matter what you believe or don't believe the truth of the matter is that God loves YOU so much...even if you don't. NOTHING can separate you from gods love while you still have breath in this life. <3

    ~Always in love

  • Shawn Mcdonald's voice is one the closest things to heaven...God's instrument of Love...May God Bless u abundantly Shawn, as you hav blessed us with yur music!! Infinite Luv

  • Hi I'm Emily and I want Christians to stand up for what they believe in and spread the word of the lord to those who do not believe. I want people to start Clubs and do something every week to spread the word of the lord. Please join the Mark of the Christian and preach to those who do not see. Give a thumbs up if you will join or comment on my channel. Thank you and God bless you.

  • Beautiful.

    

  • For anyone who is looking for a biblical explanation of the gospel and salvation, I would highly recommend checking out the scribd website that is listed on my channel. The scripture references given on there make it very clear and easy to understand.

  • I love Jesus Christ my savior! [: and He can have my all!

  • @paramoregrl2 I love your username!

  • @HappyFeet012626 its about God...there r too many biblical referances or it not to be

  • me encanta la lirica

  • Great song, you can have everything, all of me, anything!

  • I TRUELY LOVE THIS SON OMG

  • Was this song meant to be about God? It's true that ive heard this countless times on a Christian radio, but i was wondering why it doesnt even include the word God...would it be an insult to have someone think it was meant not to be about God? I LOVE this song..but i don't quite believe in God, though i am not trying to insult those that do :)...just wondering...:)

  • @HappyFeet012626 It's about God. I do see where you're coming from, though.

  • I guess 9 people want to be further instead of closer!

  • @iR3SiiST

    Thats SO old.

  • @emilygrace4040 Your old

  • what font are you using on this video?

  • I heard this song on the way home from church! I don't know how I came to look it up? Good thing I did! Great song!

  • Such an inspiring song! thank you GOD Almighty for your beautiful children w talent of song writing and singing!

  • Ever since i listened to this i song i have it made me think about me and how far away from God and now i am trying to get as close as i can. the bottom line is i just want to be closer!!!

  • I love this song...

  • Great video :)

  • I LOVE Shawn McDonald!! And I LOVE this song!!!!! Thanks for singing shawnymc!!!!

  • Drop Dead Diva brought me here, but God sang to my heart and helped me to recognize Who this song really is about. Thank you Heavenly Father for sending me here; this message was exactly what I needed when I needed it most.

  • @ThePoisonousTiger74 omg same i love Drop Dead Diva <333 i get lots of my songs off there xD

  • PLEASE PRAY FOR ME AND MY FRIENDS. THERE ARE PEOPLE THAT WE DEAL WITH ON A DAILY BASIS THAT ARE UNBELIEVERS. I AM ASKING STARTING AT 10:00 PM MOUNTAIN TIME- THAT YOU WOULD REBUKE THE DEVIL OUT OF THERE LIVES/ AND THAT GOD WOULD BE JUST. I AM A CHRISTIAN, AND THE DEMONS WILL NOT LEAVE. PLEASE PRAY THAT ALL THAT BELIEVE WILL BE COVERED WITH THE ARMOR OF GOD! PLEASE!

  • at first i didnt like itt BUT NOW I LOVE ITT xD

    THUMBS UPP!!!

  • Some reason I find a lot of bad highest rating comments...

  • lol randomly, my 3 year-old sister thinks the chorus is "I just want, to be a cowboy" ?? LOL

  • I totally loved this song! I just had to replay it again and again. <3 God bless!

  • I First heard this Amazing song on Drop Dead Diva last year... It wasn't yet out... and I looked for Months.. Then about 30seconds came out on youtube.. I'm soo glad it's now fully out.. It is such an amazing and beautiful song.. I Sit here and want to cry because there are not many songs now days that have this much meaning and power... I just love it....

  • Lets stop saying people aren't allowed to not like this video, or they're stupid. Calling names is not Christ like, and it needs deep prayer on. I personally love the song, but if someone else doesn't, then okay. As long as they aren't disrespecting God, then leave it be.

  • @kayloveofchrist785

    Amen! I agree with you :)

    God bless you!

  • I love this song!!

  • My Prayers go to Shawn, may God keep blessing him.

  • I will admit as a black guy, I prefer Contemporary/Christian Rock over black gospel. I get a sense of the bible and a story from contemporary gospel. It delivers more of a message

  • I think God should have a youtube account. Then, he could see how much all of these viewers love him :)

  • @525firefly

    God has a facebook. But it's filled with people who think Christians are idiots. I'd rather live my life believing in Him, and die to find out He's not real, than live my life not believing, and die to find out He is.

  • @grumpyclouds93 I definately agree! People who hate christians mine as well be the people who hung jesus on the cross. they claimed to be religious but chose not to believe in it. and i love how you said it.

  • @525firefly We are all sinners so we ALL hung him on the cross. Love unbelievers, don't hate them.

  • @DarkAsDay Well said my friend/ fellow believer in Christ

  • @525firefly

    already has accounts through those who are his children and those who are coming to know him.

  • @525firefly God can see everything :) so he doesn't need a youtube account to see that!

  • @525firefly God does have a youtube account its everybodys who has faith in him and shows off his love for everybody in this world.

  • @525firefly i would defanitly subscribe to His account! :D

  • @525firefly For God is greater than our hearts, and he knows everything. - John 3:20.

    The amazing thing is that God already knows all...

  • @525firefly and the cool thing is if God had an ipod... this song would probably on it. He knows all...

  • @massiekkur95 definitely (: I mean, he practically created Shawn McDonald in the first place ;)

  • @525firefly He does my friend... if u think bout it all the people who place these music videos dedicated to Him are becuz the Holy Spirit uses them so it might as well be like they are His accounts

  • @latino1samurai yeah you're so right!

  • love it!

  • Hearts cry n desire...Love YOU Jesus Christ.
