I am finally getting back too God but I keep failing him time after time and I know he forgives me and he is going to help me through my problems but the have been getting worse ,I just want it to be over.Please pray for me whoever reads this I need it.
@wolfo40 please know that i don't know your exact situation, but i can definitely relate. i have struggled with backsliding for about two and a half years now, and it has been so severe. i recently renewed my heart in and commitment to God, but i have been through similar pain and discouragement. please know that you will definitely be in my thoughts and prayers and that you can definitely contact me if you would like to talk more. please don't give up hope - there is always mercy and healing.
This song's been helping me through tough times. I really can feel God whispering in my ears: "Hold on, I'll make you smile tomorow. Good things will come." God bless you Josh! <3
well...i am going through a very tough time in my life...n it just feels like my life is over........but i firmly trust in GOD n believe that this is just a new begining of my life....n i hav the faith ....that God will do something wonderful in my life.....i luv my JESUS....and this song helpsss a looott...it applies to my situation....n God will pull me out of this mess i'm in...as the song say ...i will hold on till i c the light.....and this pain will definately fade away into a memory....
HEY! I have a very talented lil’ sis’ that just made her 1st cover: ABBIE D. PORCELAIN HEART. She was born premature & the docs thought she’d die but she made it. She’s struggled learning 2 walk & w/ many other things but we’re not here 2 complain. Her dream is 2 help kids W/ problems like hers. She truly is & wants 2 raise the $ 2 do this thru music. All we ask is that u have a heart & help us by watching it! THANKS! P.S. I’m sure you’ll enjoy it ;) God bless!
@andafly I just want you to know that I pray for you :) It says in Hebrews 11:5 "I will never leave you nor forsake you." Jesus is always walking with you and He wants you to know this, I pray for you :)
@JesusFreak5101 Thank you JesusFeak5001 for the prayer!! I (andafly) deleted that account by accident and now using this account instead. Again thank you for your prayer and thanks for this great healing song Josh!
@Carahopes God Lead you to this video. God led me here to reply to you. God loves us with an unconditional love. Stay strong with God, Believe his promises and get ready for the blessings to come!
My husband, also my best friend and family, abandoned me on Sep. 7, 2011, and refused to talk to me anymore without any reason, while they day before we were so happy and he said he loved me. I was totally broken and lose hope. I wanted to die because all my childhood domestic violence memories flooded back at once. I remembered my aunt blamed me for my mom's committing suicide when I was 7. My brother tried to beat up my parents when I was 27. This song is the only hope I have. Many thanks...
@JesusFreak5101 I only came to this video out of curiosity, besides, since youtube is a social networking site, then naturally any videos being uploaded on here is going to natrually attract attention. And as for the prayers, I think you may wanna keep a rain check on that one, because I think I might need it......
The darkest time is just before the morning ... well sometimes nights can be unnaturally long - a darkness fell for 9 hours when Jesus was on the cross, and just think how much Jesus was suffering!! But what morning came after all that seeming hopelessness when everyone thought all hope was lost?!
It doesn't matter how long it lasts, the greatest morning, better than we could ever imagine is coming. One day you'll get to look up and see His face staring down at you as he says "well done." ... :)
@Surpreeze you know Im glad to hear that, not many people who dont beleive in any god let alone THE God would like such a good christian song now I know you mostlikely have your own reasons and Im not saying I know what your reasons are, Im just saying its good to know that some Atheists like good christian songs such as this one.
Have you all noticed that in Genesis 1:5...that the bible counts a day as an evening before the morning.... Even when God made the first day...he put a time of darkness of evening before the glory of the new morning
Thanks so much for this song, Josh. We played it at my infant son's funeral in October. I was 40 weeks pregnant and he was born still, on his due date. Perfect in every way, there is no medical explanation to answer the question, "WHY?"
"Cause the pain that you've been feeling, It cant compare to the joy thats coming"
This really hits home, these past two months I have never suffered as much as I have in my entire life. However this whole time I always kept thinking that I know this is going to get better, and Im finally starting to see it come true.
I simply cannot imagine losing a child at a young age. I don't think I could get through it, if it had been one of mine. I want to hug everyone who has had their heart torn like that. I just hope this song serves as a comfort to them. God bless and hold you close. You know your child is with him and in his arms for eternity and someday you too will hold them again. And that time it will be forever.
Josh, thank you for coming to Kingdom Life Christian Church on October 7th (Milford, CT) I was the lady that HUGGED you like you were mine. We just happened to loose one of our children, 7 yrs old. We laid him to rest today, november 1st, 2011. his name is Kyle Jean-Baptiste, a Kingdom Kid. Your lyrics are helping me cope with his passing...Thank you for lyrics like these that are baffling....RIGHT ON POINT. God bless you and thank you for passing by our 'house' with Steven & Andrew. :'(

R.I.P. Ashton <3 Your passing has affected an entire community, but we will see you in a day that is coming soon. 13 seems much to young to leave this world, but no one knows the plans God has in store for you in heaven.
"Consider it pure joy my brothers whenever you face trials of many kinds, because you know that the testing of your faith develops perseverance. Perseverance must finish it's work so that you may be mature and complete, not lacking anything." James 1:2-4.
DON'T GIVE UP ON GOD! Keep fighting and endure life because in the future God will be waiting for you in Christians-know-where! :D
And yes the pain you're feeling is just the dark before the morning from Josh Wilson, the surgery before the health condition results in hospitals, and your life on earth before Heaven!
Wow. Here I am crying, waiting. Being still. It's getting better but it still hurts and sometimes I realize fear is still near, but my GOD will never ever leave me. My hope is in Him. What I'm going through is not for nothing. I know He's there waiting for me to get there. I can still see. The pain doesn't compare to my blessings. I know it. Love you my Hero!
Sometimes God just shows us one baby step ahead we walk and walk in His mercy, then after we finish the walk and look back, we see that all along, He had an entire plan.
I love this song. I always listen to it when I am feeling down. It translates such a beautiful message. I really needed this today. Thank God for blessing you with amazing talent.
i am going through a hard time with my boyfriend and sometimes i loose faith that things will be better but when i turn this song on and see how confident he looks in what he is saying it means the world to me and makes me hopeful again.
Ya know. I'm only 13, and every since i was 6 there has been nothing but pain for me. And my friend told me about this song, and all these other great bands. Now Josh and everyone else has helped me see what true light is. God bless all in need
my mom and my grandmother are always fighting cuz my mom is an addict. i was crying in my bedroom and my bestest friend slash cousin told me about this song. i put it on and i realized, this is just a pain i cant compare to the joy in my life tht will soon be cuming <3 there will be storms in this life but god will help everyone through them. amen
God talked to me thru this song as a miracle. In the middle of family separation and pain I decided to take a walk and listening internet radio on my phone. On my walk I pray to God and beg for peace and to give me trust on his promises. Suddelnly Josh Wilson started to sing this song, God you are the greatest!
this song is so great that i cry every time i hear it it reminds me how the bad times turn good ;) ( crying ) im only 12 And this song touches me so strongly. most 12 year olds are not into church like me And because Of Me my best friends life has been touched by GOD. If you live in the city of allentown come to the river church to feel the presence of GOD, and yes i am 12.
I lost a baby to trisomy 13 about 10 months ago, I survided the first 3 or 4 months after that by giving the emotional support my family needed, playing strong, and when things got better for them I went down, I just broke myself... many things helped me recover, but this song along with 'Whatever you're doing' from Sanctus Real were the final bolts to get me on my feet again. God indeed is awesome.
jimmy brazell 1992-2011 my friend passed away not but a hour ago and this hurt is killing me i loved him ATON and then i peaked onto my dresser and whats there a josh wilson cd case. The Lord blessed me with such family and friends to take this fight head on and thats what imma do i will miss him and i loved him dearly R.I.P jimmy you are a saint in the eyes of the beholder!
this song is just, i can't put into words how amazing it is, music can be really good, this song just makes me feel so helped... another thing this song reminds me is that god is always here for us so just keep going, and also use the bible to learn so much, and remember god has us here to help lead others on the path of righteousness, remember to give up your life plan and let god's plan for your life take effect so you can be used in the greatest of ways
Thank God for this song! Priase Him, this song is so True, for the children of God, the pain that were feeling, can't compare to the Joy that's coming, it's just the dark before the Morning ! Just the hurt, before the healing ! Hang on there you guys, let Christ be your stronghold, cry out to God, for He hears us from His Holy Throne.
My last year has been filled with disappointment and emotional pain. Following a teaching on Gideon at my church last Sunday I asked God for a sign he was there. I put on UCB radio and this song was played, I had never heard it before but it filled me with hope. Thank you God for showing me this amazing song.
Thank you God! For using Josh Wilson to make this song. It inspired me as I walked through the dark valley of the shadow of death 1 year ago. As in the last minute you allowed me to live on July 28th. As I lay in ICU. You showed up and supplied a kidney for my transplant. My brother gave his, so that I could recieve a strangers from Colorado. I played Jesus in a drama for 8years, bro is a pator so is stranger
Check out this God Story at another2ndchance org or visit Facebk another 2nd chance
I absolutely fail at writing anything sentimental or inspiring, so I'll just say that this is my favorite CCM song, along with Michael W. Smith's Above All. Except that Above All can make me cry and this song makes me happy (:
The hope we as Christians feel is not some drug/tequila/Teletubbies-induced hallucination. It is based in a real person who really was who he said he was (i.e., the son of God).
God might allow the pain, but he is preparing you for something bigger and better.
I was driving along when this song came on the radio. I'd never heard of Josh Wilson or this song, but it just answered the questions I had for God about what I've been going through.
I had a breakup with a christian girlfriend who I thought was incredible, then poof, she ended it. Its been incredibly difficult for me to believe in a God who she says told her to dump me, so my reaction was 1) to avoid God and 2) to plan my death. Now I know why faith is so hard. I want something to believe in, but I made the mistake of placing God and my ex girlfriend on the same platform when God should have come first from the very beginning.
@ovensleeper just to be clear option 2 isn't really an option anymore but is more of an example to describe how low I got. This song is a blessing in my time of hardship which has lasted much longer than I expected.
:') Thanks for this song its really helpin me out right now! if i didnt have God in my life right now i would have killed myself :/ but its songs like this that make me feel better and get through this time in my life.. I LOVE YOU GOD! My life ended May 16, 2011 at about 4:53 PM and Gods trying to show me that there is more to live for... and it will get better :)
I was going through a rough time then my best friend started playing this song and i began to cry then i undetstood what i have to do..God you are great
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 cry every time I hear this song. It is the reminder I needed through out a long difficult period of joblessness... losing my apartment, moving back in with my dad at the age of 31... that GOD WAS THERE. HE was there, holding my life and preparing me for something greater. I now have a job where I make TWICE as much money as the last one... God is so good. He is always worthy of our praise, in good times or bad. THANK YOU JOSH for this song to remind us!
I heard this song a week after my dad was dianosed with type 4 lung cancer and the day my mom was told she might have cervical cancer....It helped me so much!!!!
LOVE THIS SONG! This song always lifts my heart and soul and keeps my faith lifted! I know that the pain I am feeling now, can't compare to the joy that is coming!! AMEN!!!!!!!!
This song has helped me realize that no matter how bad things are or how dark the times seem, there is always good or light to come. It's just a phase and the good will soon shine through because we have God to help us. We may take ten steps away from Him, but when we turn around looking for Him he is standing right there behind us with open arms
i remember this song clearly as i moved away from my fiance to take another job after he took an job oversea without really asking me. i felt betrayed, abandoned, and alone. i was so hurt, and for the months since then, things got much worse, but this song keeps coming back to me whenever i am lost, i have hope, and all the tears are blessings.
this song only has 157k views... when something justin bieber does has millions... what is this world coming to? people need to wise up and realize there is more to life than just getting rich and getting laid
Our family is going through a loss. This song is so powerful......I lost my dad 3 years ago and only God has giving me the strength to move on. Anyone that feels lonely remember that God is our father, bestfriend, etc. Amazing song!!!!! Great job JOSH :)
My Youth Leader Had To Pick 5 Songs From A List To Sing At A Retreat. She Picked Before The Morning, Even Though I Never Heard It Before But Once We Learned The Song Together At Church, I Couldn't Help But Listen To It All The Time ! Would You Dare, Would You Dare To Believe ?
I don't have a terrible story, just silly depression after depression. But, this is the answer, fighting the good fight, believing that there's a reason to go on. Amen.
@cjvornheder It's not silly. It's important to your heart, and it's painful. That's important. I'm so glad you still fight, a lot of people have already given up. Keep believing in God! :)
@getowned41 i'm glad you didn't kill yourself, this song reminds me that although we struggle that god is still the prize at the end of the tunnel, so keep trudging through the tunnel, no matter what roadblocks. you and i are both one of god's great creations and it hurts me when i hear that someone has committed suicide. it warms my heart to know that you listened to god unlike most of our society
@getowned41 im glad this changed your mind :),you BELONG here and things always get better,this is just the dark part,god has an amazing plan for you <3 god bless
WOW...LUV THIZ SONG!!! DIDNT REALIZE WAT IT SAID TILL I BOUGHT THA CD... I REALLY NEEDED TO HEAR THOSE WORDS!!! LAST YR WAS VERY HARD!!! BEIN 25 N DIAGNOSED WITH CANCER SPENDIN MOST OF MY TIME IN THA HOSPITAL N BEIN AWAY FRM MY KIDS ALL THA TIME... BUT PRAISE GOD FOR HEALN ME N RESTORN MY FAM!!!
On my channel, I have a website listed that really does a good job of explaining the gospel and salvation. Its the scribd one (for any who are interested).
"the pain that you've been feeling can't compare to the joy that's coming...the pain that you've been feeling is just the hurt before the healing...the pain that you've been feeling is just the dark before the morning" :') so touching......Grandma with parkinson, the disease is stealing her time left on earth....She loves me even more than my mother and my ouncles...She said that she's not afraid, she'd lived the life God gave her well :')
4|10|2011 a house fire occurred in my Grandfathers house. 4|17|2011 found Remaining's. And everything in between that, was sobbing eyes, and tears on cheeks. But, we have to follow God, and Jesus's plan. This is happening for a reason. When this was happening, I instantly looked this song up on YouTube, and played it for my Mother, and Grandmother. My mom did not get the point. The point is, this is happening for a reason, and something good is going to come out of this tragedy.
This song gives me hope and makes me cry but its true the lyric "do you wonder why you have to feel the things that hurt you if theres a God who loves where is he now?"
That is so true many people ask or probably think that each day but Lord is near but i guess its natural balance.Nice job Josh this song rocks!
This song has helped me through so much. My sister sister had twins in june, and unfortunately lost them both a few days later due to a rare severe skin condition. This song has helped us sooo much, its brought a sense of acceptance to the situation. There is NO way this song should have under 1 million views. People need to realize REAL INSPIRATIONAL music when its in front of them. BEAUTIFUL song.
WITH THIS SONG I CAN SAY THAT ITS SO TRUE

Sometimes God just shows us one baby step ahead we walk and walk in His mercy, then after we finish the walk and look back, we see that all along, He had an entire plan.

God talked to me thru this song as a miracle. In the middle of family separation and pain I decided to take a walk and listening internet radio on my phone. On my walk I pray to God and beg for peace and to give me trust on his promises. Suddelnly Josh Wilson started to sing this song, God you are the greatest!

I lost a baby to trisomy 13 about 10 months ago, I survided the first 3 or 4 months after that by giving the emotional support my family needed, playing strong, and when things got better for them I went down, I just broke myself... many things helped me recover, but this song along with 'Whatever you're doing' from Sanctus Real were the final bolts to get me on my feet again. God indeed is awesome.

Thank you God! For using Josh Wilson to make this song. It inspired me as I walked through the dark valley of the shadow of death 1 year ago. As in the last minute you allowed me to live on July 28th. As I lay in ICU. You showed up and supplied a kidney for my transplant. My brother gave his, so that I could recieve a strangers from Colorado. I played Jesus in a drama for 8years, bro is a pator so is stranger

That you still have a reason to sing
'Cause the pain you've been feeling
Can't compare to the joy that's coming
So hold on, you got to wait for the light
Press on, just fight the good fight
'Cause the pain that you've been feeling
It's just the dark before the morning

The hope we as Christians feel is not some drug/tequila/Teletubbies-induced hallucination. It is based in a real person who really was who he said he was (i.e., the son of God).
God might allow the pain, but he is preparing you for something bigger and better.

I had a breakup with a christian girlfriend who I thought was incredible, then poof, she ended it. Its been incredibly difficult for me to believe in a God who she says told her to dump me, so my reaction was 1) to avoid God and 2) to plan my death. Now I know why faith is so hard. I want something to believe in, but I made the mistake of placing God and my ex girlfriend on the same platform when God should have come first from the very beginning.

I cry every time I hear this song. It is the reminder I needed through out a long difficult period of joblessness... losing my apartment, moving back in with my dad at the age of 31... that GOD WAS THERE. HE was there, holding my life and preparing me for something greater. I now have a job where I make TWICE as much money as the last one... God is so good. He is always worthy of our praise, in good times or bad. THANK YOU JOSH for this song to remind us!

This song has helped me realize that no matter how bad things are or how dark the times seem, there is always good or light to come. It's just a phase and the good will soon shine through because we have God to help us. We may take ten steps away from Him, but when we turn around looking for Him he is standing right there behind us with open arms

4|10|2011 a house fire occurred in my Grandfathers house. 4|17|2011 found Remaining's. And everything in between that, was sobbing eyes, and tears on cheeks. But, we have to follow God, and Jesus's plan. This is happening for a reason. When this was happening, I instantly looked this song up on YouTube, and played it for my Mother, and Grandmother. My mom did not get the point. The point is, this is happening for a reason, and something good is going to come out of this tragedy.
