  • I love this guy. I've had the blessing to meet with him several times, and I can tell you he has a heart for the LORD!!!!

  • El Shaddai erkamka na adonai

  • wonderful, God be praised always, mighty and powerfull is He

  • Saw him in Pittsburgh last night...you could hear a pin drop.

  • he's going to be at my university all this week for our Emphasis on Worship week, I am SO EXCITED!! :) This song has been one of my favourites since I was very small, like 6-7 years old. Can't wait to hear him live!!!

  • This song is very anointed and inspired by God. I like his version the best!!

  • You`re the best!!!

  • THIS SOUNDS LIKE THE THEME FROM MASH CALLED SUICIDE IS PAINLESS IRONIC DON'T YOU THINK ?

  • Hey dude, think you could make a playlist of the Michael Card?

  • As a writer and musician myself, the words to this song inspire, empower and take me back to time of a more simple life. Listen to the words and may the El Shaddai become your Adonai, your love and your life. Such a talent for God!

  • wonderful!

  • Absolutely beautiful! What a blessing to our God who reigns on high!

  • Er hat eine wunderschöne Stimme! Schön, dass Gott dadurch die Ehre bekommt, und dass er den Menschen so tolle Gaben gegeben hat, um Ihn zu lieben und anzubeten!! Möge der Segen durch M. Card weitergehen, und möge er durch seine Lieder die Botschaft vom Himmel weitertragen!!

    Er ist geseget, und alle, die Gott lieben und ihn mit Liedern, Worten und Handlungen anbeten und ehren! Danke ...

  • very beautiful.

    the woman singing looks like tzippora esther, a well known chassidic singer in israel.

  • I love this song (amo esta canção),

    It makes me remember my beginning in the way of the Lord.

  • ONCE AGAIN BEAUTIFUL !

    GOD BLESS YOU & STAY GOLD

  • I had the amazing opportunity to see him in concert and I heard this song. Love it!

  • Comment removed

  • One of my favorite songs by one of my favorite artists.

  • I feel the Holy Spirit move every time I listen to this song Praise the Lord!

  • I love this song, always have and always will. So much heart and truth in this.

  • This is so reverently sung and has so much emotion and conviction by both artists. Gives glory to God and blessing to the listener!

  • Praise and honor to our Lord and Savoir Jesus the Christ!!!!!! Thank you God for sending Jesus as the Sacrifice for our sins!!! Praise the Lamb of God!!!!

  • Such deep, deep, deep emotions of our the Lord Our God. Healing in His Name for the people of Earth. Come to Jesus and be made whole. Loved it. Eric.

  • Amen

  • I love this song . . thank you for posting.

  • Amen

  • THAT AT THE NAME OF JESUS EVERY KNEE SHOULD BOW, OF THINGS IN HEAVEN, AND THINGS IN EARTH, AND THINGS UNDER THE EARTH. phil:2:10. THANK YOU KING JESUS. AMEN.

  • Thanks for posting I have this CD " Srcibbling In The Sand". I love this version of El Shaddai. God bless

  • I can understand how Michael card sings with conviction kind of emotion, but i will have to agree the female artist is a beautiful singer. This scenario is just a matter of preference i guess regardless they are both singing Glory to God so who is more holy? none...

  • Shouldn't it be "na adonai" in both verses?

  • Oliver to stand as someone else's Judge is what is wrong, this is a beautiful rendition

  • The way she sings is wonderful, I don't see what your problem is?!!

  • this song is amazing everytime i lesson to this song i get goose bumps even if it is a deffernt version it still makes me feel somthing supernatural

  • Different version??? He wrote it!

  • I agree with most . . .this is such an amazing song . . I thank God for all his blessings . .We use this song in our shop for inspiration . .

  • Sarah Groves has such an amazing voice and she is so beautiful. I read in an interview with her that she is still a virgin and it really helped me through a difficult period of my life where I was lost and where I would only think about sex. I haven't had sex for two years now and I fill my days with prayers and meaning. She showed me what true commitment is and I thank her for it.. When I start to think about sex, I listen to this song for inspiration.

  • @karvaliok

    That really good, you are an inspiration to me.

  • @karvaliok You must be thinking of someone else. Sara Groves has been married for more than 10 years and she has three kids. She's a very inspirational artist and person, and I'm glad someone has been an inspiration to you to stay pure, but I'm pretty certain Sara Groves is not still a virgin.

  • @karvaliok wat is this song get to do with ure sex life how weird wat made u stop having sex get to do with el shadai .. who is a lion ... ah i wish adam and eve must have met el shadaii they would have not had sexual intercourse lol hahaha...

  • @adamisking666 I'm thinking karvaliok meant outside of marriage, which is wrong according to the Lord. Inside of marriage, it's a beautiful representation of Christ and His church. I was 28 and my husband was 21 when we married. We had not only abstained from sex, but also had our first kiss at the altar. How beautiful to save such gifts for one another! If you don't agree with that, it's your right, but so is mine for that, and karvaliok's for his/hers. Kuddos to karvaliok! = )

  • @ElijahsLittleGirl That is so wonderful that you and your husband waited until you were at the altar! Such an encouragment to me!

  • @psalm121psalm135 Thank you. You certainly need the power of God to do it. It's very hard, and you must find a mate who shares your conviction to follow through. Bathe your relationship with prayer and be accountable to others (parents etc). It can be done, and it's so worth it! Several of my siblings and friends have made it too. You can, and anyone who has already messed up can start again new right now. His mercies are new EVERY morning and He gives strength in your weakest moments. : )

  • @karvaliok

    Thank you for sharing, it takes courage to share what you been through openly; and may God used this greatly to heal those who are in similar situation. God bless you.

  • @Prizm4 I lived the kind of life you're advocating, and it's full of emptiness. That's the empty life full of repression and guilt. There's no repression nor guilt with the Lord - it's freedom...finally. It's the love and peace that your spirit seeks whether or not you can recognize or admit it. I pray that you understand this before it's too late because you are correct: you only live once. Make it count, my friend.

  • @Prizm4 i pray and hope that you find greater meaning and satisfaction than that which you are recommending..........come back to this comment when you are frail and old and tell me how satisfied and satiated you are with your fleeting memories of your sexual "triumps and accomplishments". God's grace and mercy be upon you.

  • @karvaliok That's Sarah Groves? I didn't recognize her voice in a previous video and have never seen a picture of her. I love her voice and her music as well. Thanks for mentioning it!

  • @karvaliok Hi, I can really relate to your comments after my husband passed 1 1/2 years ago I was just consumed by thoughts of sex. I am not close to getting married again but I read scripture every day and it is so comforting and helps so much. God is the husband to widows and the father to orphans. Bless you dear for posting such real comments.

  • yo go girl

  • Awesome song!

  • beautiful !!! EL Shaddai-- Age to age you're still the same... We will praise and lift you high

  • GREAT!!

  • Through trials and tribulation my God has been faithful. The Lord God of Israel has lifted me high. Nothing has seemed too difficult for my God. El Shaddai inhabits a special niche in my heart. I love him to bits. Praise be his name forever Amen!

  • And my miraculous healing from stage 4 ovarian cancer 2 years ago. every day is a new gift and blessing!

  • May He be praised in your victory over caner. He carried me in his arms through a tragic and severe burn injury in 1995 - to me also, every day is a blessing.

  • @Tundrazzy Praise the Lord!

  • @Tundrazzy AMEN!

    

  • This is one of my all time favorite songs. The name El Shaddai refers to God's caring nature for us. In the way that He's kept me alive these past few years and saved me from death by systemic lupus, as well as kept my mind and soul together, I need to remember this everyday. Thank you for posting it.

  • Excelente cancion!!

  • This Song is So special Blessing every time I hear and God Bless Michael Card Gods Messenger.  Blessings

  • repentence, forthrightness with your spouse is the only way. Restoration is God's business.

  • dant worry son, repent for the end is near... search for the tructh and the truth will set u free..

  • We are sinners saved by His grace, think on Jesus as He wrote in the sand.

    Repent & sin no more your sins are forgiven. Give it to Him, pray & He will answer you and direct your path

    Fish

  • I think your spouse needs to know this a little more than we do....

  • There is no help outside of the Supernatural intervention, forgiveness and healing of the Lord. Fall on your knees and confess your sin to the Lord. He knows your heart already. We are not made perfect and without the Lord's spirit are at the mercy of the enemies temptation. The Lord tells us this much in his Word. With him however all is possible and we rise to victory over the enemy. Bear in mind that sin always carries a consequence. The Lord can save you from the ruin. Let him.

  • Gheesh, this is gorgeous -- I went to view Michael Card performing and who appears on stage with him but my favorite vocalist of all time, Sara Groves, way way cool!

  • When I die, I'd love to sing this for God.

    He's helped me in more ways than most people think. He's stopped the suicidal thoughts I used to get before.

    :) Thank God for his wisdom and protection. He's truly wonderful!

    Have a Joyful day/ Restful night!

  • amen, thank God for your testimony. Keep walking in His sight, may He bless you abundantly...!

  • One the greatest voices ever!God bless you!

  • omg in love with this voice

  • can't believe Christians ban or call this evil or klove or power88 for that matter, there are evil places such as 250 brent lane, pensacola, fl that really is the most evil place on earth

  • El Shaddai, El Shaddai, Erkamka na adonai

  • This is such a beautiful praise song.I can only imagine when the Lord returns and we sing this song to him.

  • this is great :D Im learning an El Shaddai piano solo piece by Michael Card and it's very pretty! the words are so powerful too. i had a cd that i HAD to listen to, to be able to go to sleep at night. anyone heard of Sleep Sound in Jesus?? I'm looking on youtube for the song "Where Did You Get Those Eyes So Blue".... idk if thats the name actually, but its my fave out of Michael Card's pieces. So... if anyone knows of it, wanna respond please???

  • hashem bless u michael card and all of u, including j3sfreak

  • God is alive and well!

  • Does anybody else think Michael Card looks a little strange? Since most people need 3/4 looks and 1/4 talent, how did he make it? On the cover of one of his discs, he has a baseball cap on, like a soccer dad. How does that work?

  • don't you think it's more the power of christ that helped him succeed? looks don't matter if you have the power of christ behind you. besides, what's wrong with soccer dads?

  • Well, I wouldn't say that his audience looks at the outside as much. Or that they would care to if their favorite artist doesn't look like the usual materialistic singer-songwriter.

  • Whereas your mix sounds like 3/4 'judgment' and 1/4 'emptyheadedness'. Shouldn't you prefix that inane comment of yours with "in all love, brother..." Please think before you type. It helps. Thankyou.

  • And, of course, your reply isn't a bit "judgmental."

  • One of us allegedly lives a believer's lifestyle of worship in awe of a God who says "Judge not lest you be judged."

    The other, an unbeliever finds the stench of all your hypocrisy quite overpowering on a purely human level. I suggest you take your 'salt' and your 'light' back to the shop and ask for your money back.

    And you ask others to believe that God KNEW he created you to be such an idiot. Naaaah!!

  • @CalvinistMorena

    Most people where need 3/4 looks and 1/4 talent? In 80's Christian Music?!

  • I must say...this is AMAZINGLY powerful! This sends chills up my back, and I'm not a christian. But I think they have the best music, bar none!

  • Other good artists for the Lord include Iona, Paul Wilbur, Michael English.

  • I love Michael Card and his music. I listened to him a lot when I was young- does he have any new cd's??

  • this is one of my favourite songs

  • Beautiful song, to our God and Saviour, what a peace,

  • Is that Twila Paris?

  • you are spreading untrue news.

    why you have so much hatred? God loves you and may the Holy Spirit touch your wounded heart!

  • testerz, You are one disgusting human being to even think such a thought, not to mention the unecessary vulgarity used to express it.

  • Beautiful! Many thanks:-)

  • Who is that singing with him?

  • it really sounds like sarah groves, but i really don't know. great song though!

  • it has to be. it is. why isn't she listed?? she is AMAZING

  • Love it! The best version I've ever found of this song. Thanks :)

  • I'm not sure a more beautiful version has ever been done!

  • Beautiful! Thanks

  • this is beautiful

  • what an amazing song!

  • Me gusto mucho. No conocía a este cantante. Muy bueno!

  • Oh blessed be the name of our Lord! Praise be to Jesus Christ - our El Shaddai. Our King of Kings and Lord of Lords!

  • I Love This Music What a Blessing

  • Had this tape so many years ago. I thank you for posting this video. I'm crying right now!

  • i love michael card, he did a concert at my church tonight, i played violin for him, hes SOO nice, and amazing!

  • I haven't heard this song since I was a little girl; oh man memories!! :3

  • If you like the music you should check out Mike's books. All are great teaching and well written. Start with "A Violent Grace." It is not difficult to find. I have given at least a dozen copies as gifts over the years.

  • Hey HeyAtlas, I think David Meese has the best known recording of "We Are the Reason."

  • Did Michael Card ever sing We Are The Reason?

  • BEAUTIFUL!!!!! So well done ... she has a amazing voice - does she have a CD? What's her name?

  • That is Sara Groves doing backup vocals. She has about 6 CD's out. She is a really amazing vocalist and my favorite female singer/songwriter.

  • we shouldn't judge people and criticise them. God did not teach us to do that. So let just appreciate everything around us. =D

    peace.

  • So beautiful. I have always loved this song. Thanks for sharing it here and thanks for the lyrics :) Favorited!

  • Could someone tell me where to look for his song Voice of a child on Youtube

  • michael card will be at 4th avenue franklin tn doing a bible study in aug 2008 on wednesday's

  • Well actually there are two levels of creativity, just as there are two levels of relationship with God: the individual and the communal. Individual and communal creativity are interdependent relative to the goal of maximum creativity.

  • Michael I love your music, it makes me feel warm inside. You bring me hope when i was on the brink of suicide! Thank you and God bless

  • in 1988 i saw you at wheaton bible college

    what awsome music michale.shalom thanks for the memories

  • Isn't that Sara Groves singing with Michael?

  • I just wondered the same thing! LOL

  • My favorite worship song

  • could anyone tell who was the woman singing? shes great.thanks

  • very touching.

  • I love this song, but it is a shame that many people think that Amy Grant originated with this song, when it was really Michael who wrote it. :-/

  • imo, mr. card does it better anyway! amy grant's version is nice too.

  • thanks for the song.. its proably my favourite christian song.. is it free to download to my comp if so how would i do that ?

    Geoff

  • This is Holy.

    I use to be an atheist until God spoke to me audibly in my car and showed me Himself dying on a cross for my sins.

    I posted the full story on my blog. Just google "whomareyouseeking".

    This song is lovly.

  • lol my dad has the same name...how cool..

  • this is a beautiful song! To God be the glory. Thanks Michael Card and Sarah!

  • Come quickly Lord Jesus. Come quickly. I pray for the Peace of Israel.

  • He inhabits the praises of His people! PS 22:3

  • Probably one of Cards nicest sounding songs

  • Thank you, Sarah has a great voice

  • Who is the woman singing this song with Michael?

  • Sarah Groves

  • I LOVE this one. My daddy has my grandmother accompany him on the piano every time he's over.

  • super tareeeee

  • Michael Card wrote this song : )

    but AMY GRANT recorded it and is known for this song.

    Vee

  • Wonderful song :)

  • Wonderful song!

  • This song is timeless; thanks...any idea who wrote it?

  • the guy on the piano michael card wrote the song

  • Actually, it was Amy Grant's ex-husband, Steven Curtis Chapman who wrote it! :)

  • no! he didn't write this one.. he wrote most of her pop hits during his drug years..

  • Michael Card wrote the song, Amy made it popular

    GARY Chapman was Amy's ex husband and wrote a number of her early hits, but not this

  • Thank you for the correction...oops

  • Wrong!!!!

  • Michael is coming to sing at my local high school as a benefit concert for a few kids in my school that have health problems

  • we cannot let the world forget... Satan CANNOT WIN... Let's stay strong... he DID NOT DIE IN VAIN...

  • We cannot stop, 'n' not look backs
