@ lastandbesthope, Christian music seems retarded only to those who have refused to be open to the message from God in those songs. It is a matter of one's will, not the song.
I love his music and this is my fav song i can listen to this song for hours over and over. I can relate to this song and plus his voice is amazing!! <3
to oceanview15 im so sorry for you loss. i lost my mom october 24, 2009. she was 52 yrs old and breast cancer took her from me. Already fighting depression that threw me even further into the hole but i made it out and realized i had tons of people that love me and most of all god does. you will find your place in this world i promise. dont let it get your spirit down keep your head up and just know neither of them are suffering they made it home to god something we all strive to do.
its so hard being a teen now a days. theres so much ungodly things that go on. almost Every single person i know swears! its so hard to find my place in this world. and ppl that call themselves christians are just the same as the world. i just wanna know that there are godly men out there!!!
@iteachmusic34 I know exactly what you are going through. It's hard for me to find girls that just love and live for Christ, and as a man searching after God's will for my life, it's what I need to see in a girl. Pray for God to lead you to the man he has picked out for you to marry. Be encouraged out there!
im 16 and my 27 years old brother and my grandma died this year...i need to find my place in this world, before i keep thinking i need to take myself out of it. This song kind of helps.
@oceanview15 i am so very sorry for your loss, i will pray for you, i lost my mom 4 years ago i know it hurts to loose someone you love, i may be a lot older but the pain is the same i still cry sometimes , we all feel lost sometimes but i know the lord must have someting for you and i to do here on earth one day we will reunite with our loved ones god blessyou
wonderful song from michael! this helps me strengthen my hearth and mind thru all the daily challenges in life. you all have a good one and God bless!
best song on the tube at least top ten its hard to do above all so gods looking down on us right now dont drink dont smoke tobaco god blessses us all forever & ever signed bobbymercy1
im having a great time right now folks.....im singing along with thw music and its funny because mws's voice is so high that im struggling to reach it but its a good fun though,im enjoying it while my wife and kids are just listening,praise God we are having fun with God's blessings.
Lol @ it posting my comment twice. Yes blessings do come in many forms. I firmly believe in miracles. I think they happen every day so if I got nothing else from that marriage at least I was introduced to one of my favorite artists and a renewed faith through his music. Merry Christmas all and please please do all you can to help someone out who would otherwise have nothing without you. No one should go hungry. Especially during Christmas.
every time i hear this song i bust out crying and i just think of what the lord has done for me and what he had to go threw so that we may have new life in son jesus christ our lord and savoir we god rose jesus from the dead he over came the world and defeated the devil and defeated death he is so amazing and some times we forget how amazing the lord really is we should praise his name every day and sing praise to the lord every day not just in church every day praise the lord our god
Well Petra was without a doubt huge within Christian circles, but I meant that Grant and Smith's fame swelled to the point that it even reached outside of Christian circles
@Califacience That's true but both Grant and Smith did it intentionaly (releasing albums through major label and toning down the christian content) and it brought them both some trouble. I won't go into "that's wrong that's right" kind of talk, I know it changed some lives that would otherwise be unchanged. The point is that their forray into secular music world was intentional not incidental.
I agree about Grant, but not so much Smith, and for the most part the criticism of Smith came from the fringes of the church.
I have no basis to determine anyone's intentions, only to observe their actions. Grant's flirtatious Mtv videos are enough to make the case there, but it takes more than releasing with a major label to have me conclude that someone's selling out.
Content wise Go West Young Man was not a departure from an album like The Big Picture.
@Califacience True, Smitty wasn't such a hard case as Amy, she even got divorced and wasn't really a paragon at the time. Smitty may have been mainstream oriented with more cryptic lyrics than straightforward Petra but still was on the solid Foundation and didn't depart as Amy did.
There have been many AMVs but Youtbe, being idiotic removes them all. Most the artist like it when people make AMVs. Free publicity, but the few who don't could sew, so it's easier for youtube to just delete them all.
If you really listen to this song, and Michael W. Smith's other songs, you will find a peace within yourself and have confidence in Jesus to help you in any and EVERY way...just pray and KNOW that HE is listening...God Bless!!!!!!!
This song brings back memories...Thankyou Jesus!! I know you will help me find MY place in this world!!! I LOVE THIS SONG...just listen...and it will touch you.....but REALLY listen....GOD BLESS YOU ALL!!!
YOU ALL WILL SEE WHEN JESUS COMES BACK IN THE CLOUDS AND IN ALL HIS GLORY....AND ALL THE NON BELIEVERS WILL BE LIKE..."OH MAN...IM SO SORRY JESUS uhh..uhh...I ALWAYS BELIEVED IN YOU..PLEASE FORGIVE ME!!!...OR.. WHAT'S GOING ON???? IM SCARED!!!!! ITS CALLED THE RAPTURE!!!!!!! AMEN!!! COME LORD JESUS...AND SHOW THESE PEOPLE THAT YOU ARE ALIVE AND WELL!!!!!!!
i love jesus and the god almighty but i live in this world wondering where and what im supposed to be doing. god is love and love is god and i think this song applies to an aching heart looking for the love of a good person to be one with. i could be wrong but thats my herat.
This is the song that helped me make the decision to become saved. Within the last couple of years, Iv'e been struggling with my faith. I question the bible now, and I wonder why you have to be born again to get into heaven. I really don't understand why God would create all of us to only have one way. If their are differnet religions to worship him, why only through Christ ? I pray to god about this everyday and never seem to get an answer.
Santa Claus is different in different countries, but we get the same feeling from the though of him. God wants us all to love one another and be good people, it's simple. Keep doing these two things and it will all work out for you. I'm a sinner and don't read the bible much but that's my feeling. I hope you find peace in your life my friend, it's a work in progress.
Something Interesting just happened. I honestly think God is trying to get to me. By chance, I heard about the movie, " Fire Proof" with Kirk Cameron. It's a movie about a fire Chiefs marriage in trouble. His father gives him a book to help the marriage, in the middle his father gets him to commit to Christ and his whole atittude changes. This spoke to me !!!!! God, does transform you at your darkest hrs. When I turn from God, he still loves me, and he always calls me back. THX God
He never throws anything at us that we can't handle or grow from. It all takes time to figure out, you'll do it. He's there, don't look too hard or closely. He shows up in places and at times you'd never expect.
Yeah !!!! I agree with you on that one. My problem is, I don't know how to handle it. God has his hands full with me. I have absolutely no confidence in myself .
Riptidescool.... your questioning your faith in Christ is forseen. The dark side is not going to accept its defeat without a fight. Darkness controls this world. Jesus Christ is the Light. In John 3:19 it is written "the Light has come into the world and men loved darkness more than the Light."
Remember this passage also-- Acts 4:12 -(Jesus) for there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men by which we must be saved.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
jesus himself said 'many sheep i have who are not of this flock' and 'whoever is not against us is for us'.
modern christians have tried to twist his words into meaning the only way is to follow the north american capitalist democracy model of christianity-- a 200 year old version of a 2000 year old religion.
don't forget-- the early church were orthodox jews.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
oops. that msg was for riptidescool.
jesus also said 'love god with all your heart, and your neighbour as yourself.'
the rest is just man-made rules, dogma, and details.
and anyway, the bible as we have it is based on a terrible, anti-woman, anti-semitic translation by a bunch of white british men who were taking over the world and wanted "God's word" to support them (the KJV version).
so unless you read the bible in the original language, it's pretty much ALL open to interpretation.
Niagara is so beautiful, went there in 94 on my first honeymoon. long before i was a christian, the splendor of this song and these scenes really puts things in perspective. still looking for my place in this world, my place in eternity is secure.
if we follow GODS WORD and comprehend/understand HIS plan then we've found our place in this world,more importantly,we found our rite path to HEAVEN...we must be comfortable in GODS/JESUS' HANDS,and let THEM guide us,not us or the world.thanks for ur songs m.w.smith..GOD BLESS US ALL!!
I love the fact that people are using this song to debate evolution.
I believe in evolution and I am an agnostic.
I still find this song beautiful and moving.
There are plenty of targets out there for people who hate religion,this guy just wants to make inspiring music stop looking for subterfuge in his songs!
Say what you all want to say now, Because when Jesus comes back and He will, it will all be decided then and I pray everyone here makes the right Choice, not according to what I say or anyone else says.
Just a quick question! If you don't believe in God, and I'm not knocking you for not believing, then why are you watching a video by a contemporary christian performer who clearly does believe in God? None of that "I just like the sound of his music" crap either!
Fair question, but this song is uplifting even if you aren't a Christian.
My musical tastes run the gamut from the super happy to the super angry with several words that would most likely offend you.
Michael W. Smith (as well as Amy Grant) have had several songs cross over into the pop realm. They may be religious but it's not a given that you have to be religious to listen to them. :-)
Sorry for the ambiguity. I assumed that Youtube would thread the responses so it would be apparent as to the antecedent of this post was, but since it is not: I was replying to cecilturtle from 4 months ago.
...I've been saved since 2003...It's so fun to try and get the WORD out others about the glory of the Lord and our best friend Jesus Christ. I'm a fan of Jesus. Is that weird to say? I mean people make cracks about Chuck Norris being strong and powerful and a bad ass, but we have Christ...the original and only miracle maker, do gooder life saver...mountain mover strong man.
I mean holy crap...if I was back then and they allowed female apostles, I woulda been the first to sign up.
Nice attitude. I do not think jesus would approve. If he existed.
god must be crying in heaven. If it existed. It does not.
More and more people are turning away from religion and religion based understanding of the world because it provides no real answers to life. Rational thinking is on the rise and it will only become more prominent as science acquires more real valid facts about life in this universe.
Don't forget that every point throughout history when Christianity has become persecuted it has only grown. Beyond what the Romans could have ever believed. No matter what you ever rationalize or come to understand, that fact will never be silenced. Learn from history. That's what rational thinkers do.
You can't silence the Truth and God is real. Evolution has NO Explanation for the creation of the earth and could never even explain the complexity involved in only one small, invisible cell that is in our bodies. If you look at the "scientific" chart from what life evolved from other life, it is hilarious. It is the most ridiculous thing EVER with no credible explanation for how these creatures could do this. How can you say rational thinking is on the rise?
I do not wish to -silence- christianity and other religions, only for it to be downgraded to philosophical fiction.
You also must realize that christianity has tried to silence rational thinking for thousands of years and people have only recently been allowed to live godless lives without fear or death or imprisonment, therefore technically, religious way of thinking is in fact at its lowest ever.
Thus, rational thinking is on the rise. I hope that you are now aware of this historical fact.
If you find science hilarious and ridiculous then must not be familiar with your own religion. Your denial of reality does not justify your belief in fantasy.
The way to the truth is science and proper understanding of life. Belief in god is the way back to the caves.
God is a rational god and it is possible for a relationaship with Jesus to blossom as science grows, I should know as science is my passion and what i am studying.
Of course you can try to -marry- science and religion. Just insert god wherever there is no definite answer. But as more real understanding of reality is acquired the opportunity for god to -appear- as a legitimate part of the process of rational thinking, gets smaller and smaller, ultimately becoming non existent.
And I repeat, as far as you doing your -part- goes, again I must emphasize that you have put no effort in it whatsoever. Your -standing up for god- is really quite pathetic. Best you stick to your hannah montana brainwash and go back to the other 96percent of the teen population, where you belong.
this song reminds me when I graduated high school in 1992 & I didn't know it was a christian song but then I wasn't a christian until about a year later.
Micheal W.Smith is bless with his voice to be able to sing this song.I love this song so so much.This song has a lot of meaning to those that are save and those that are unsave.
@ lastandbesthope, Christian music seems retarded only to those who have refused to be open to the message from God in those songs. It is a matter of one's will, not the song.

well that implies that Evolution is unchristian?! which it is not, it is merely the method to the miracle...

Darwin was a Christian before, during, and after he developed the Theory of Evolution.

I believe God likes it whenever we wonder about the science behind our being. Science actually does point to God.

Say what you all want to say now, Because when Jesus comes back and He will, it will all be decided then and I pray everyone here makes the right Choice, not according to what I say or anyone else says.

Just a quick question! If you don't believe in God, and I'm not knocking you for not believing, then why are you watching a video by a contemporary christian performer who clearly does believe in God? None of that "I just like the sound of his music" crap either!

Fair question, but this song is uplifting even if you aren't a Christian.
My musical tastes run the gamut from the super happy to the super angry with several words that would most likely offend you.
Michael W. Smith (as well as Amy Grant) have had several songs cross over into the pop realm. They may be religious but it's not a given that you have to be religious to listen to them. :-)
Peace!

Sorry for the ambiguity. I assumed that Youtube would thread the responses so it would be apparent as to the antecedent of this post was, but since it is not: I was replying to cecilturtle from 4 months ago.

...I've been saved since 2003...It's so fun to try and get the WORD out others about the glory of the Lord and our best friend Jesus Christ. I'm a fan of Jesus. Is that weird to say? I mean people make cracks about Chuck Norris being strong and powerful and a bad ass, but we have Christ...the original and only miracle maker, do gooder life saver...mountain mover strong man.
I mean holy crap...if I was back then and they allowed female apostles, I woulda been the first to sign up.

Nice attitude. I do not think jesus would approve. If he existed.
god must be crying in heaven. If it existed. It does not.
More and more people are turning away from religion and religion based understanding of the world because it provides no real answers to life. Rational thinking is on the rise and it will only become more prominent as science acquires more real valid facts about life in this universe.

Don't forget that every point throughout history when Christianity has become persecuted it has only grown. Beyond what the Romans could have ever believed. No matter what you ever rationalize or come to understand, that fact will never be silenced. Learn from history. That's what rational thinkers do.

You can't silence the Truth and God is real. Evolution has NO Explanation for the creation of the earth and could never even explain the complexity involved in only one small, invisible cell that is in our bodies. If you look at the "scientific" chart from what life evolved from other life, it is hilarious. It is the most ridiculous thing EVER with no credible explanation for how these creatures could do this. How can you say rational thinking is on the rise?
XsilentiumX 2 years ago 4
Your statement is ripe with presumption.
I do not wish to -silence- christianity and other religions, only for it to be downgraded to philosophical fiction.
You also must realize that christianity has tried to silence rational thinking for thousands of years and people have only recently been allowed to live godless lives without fear or death or imprisonment, therefore technically, religious way of thinking is in fact at its lowest ever.
nightoftheshape 2 years ago
Thus, rational thinking is on the rise. I hope that you are now aware of this historical fact.
If you find science hilarious and ridiculous then must not be familiar with your own religion. Your denial of reality does not justify your belief in fantasy.
The way to the truth is science and proper understanding of life. Belief in god is the way back to the caves.
nightoftheshape 2 years ago
Agreed, and another thing most people fail to take into account is that Darwin himself was a Christian.
YoungTeufelhunden 2 years ago
Sorry Dude Darwin does not have the same beliefs of a christian! Get your facts straight! And no he is not Christian. God Bless
mjtk55 2 years ago 2
True he may not have had the exact same beliefs as a Christian, but he did believe in God.
YoungTeufelhunden 2 years ago
God is a rational god and it is possible for a relationaship with Jesus to blossom as science grows, I should know as science is my passion and what i am studying.
hannahsjf 2 years ago 3
Of course you can try to -marry- science and religion. Just insert god wherever there is no definite answer. But as more real understanding of reality is acquired the opportunity for god to -appear- as a legitimate part of the process of rational thinking, gets smaller and smaller, ultimately becoming non existent.
nightoftheshape 2 years ago
And I repeat, as far as you doing your -part- goes, again I must emphasize that you have put no effort in it whatsoever. Your -standing up for god- is really quite pathetic. Best you stick to your hannah montana brainwash and go back to the other 96percent of the teen population, where you belong.

this song reminds me when I graduated high school in 1992 & I didn't know it was a christian song but then I wasn't a christian until about a year later.
