  • This song is amazing... my grandma just died and i was super close to her .. but this song keep me holding on a little bit longer :) .

  • I love this song. But I won't lie, I thought a white woman sung this song. Not that it matters. Very empowering song! Love it!

  • He is always there holding us up when we can't hold ourselves. What would we do without him? How great is our GOD on high!!!! He can do anything and everything, We are His children and He will nwever let us down.

  • @TheMelodramaticists "Old enough to know better, but still too young to care"! lol I'm around ??, but no one believes I'm as old as I am. (Ladies don't tell.) I'm old enough to have 2 kids and be married and I get "you can't be--, you look way younger" all the time. Love ya. Take Care and God Bless YOU, Honey!! Jesus loves you and is always with you. I'll see ya in Heaven, if not here on earth, someday!!

  • @Jumpingjellybean100 Cool! I heard it on K-Love 96.9 !!

  • my nana wanted me to find a "happy song" because i was listening to maralin mansons music and it put really negative things in my head. mandisa`s words remind me that god cares and knows exactly what im feeling. im lonely and depressed and need strength and willpower to do the things i need to do.

  • @larouxfan15 Your nana is very wise! Jesus loves you and will never ever abandon you.He soo loves you!! You will always have a place of support, too, if you can find a bible study group or a friendly+TRUE church that teaches/preaches the love of Christ Jesus, Who gave His life for you/us and rose again, just as He said He would! And He is coming back someday(we don't know when), prob.soon.But just remember--keep your eyes on Jesus and His cross. That is where the victory is for you!

  • @womanwonder10 i go to a church like that. i stopped being depressed but today i got kind of depressed cuz i found out my friend wont be at work (at my school) for a few weeks. she was the only one i wanted to hang out with so much at school. im going to church wednesday night. hopefully i will get something out of it

  • @larouxfan15 Yeah, school can be tough.You must be really young. I'm alot older than you, but I remember school. I know when ya have a friend that is like your best friend, then it's not as good without her there.I had 4 different groups of girls I would hang out with.I was the common bond. But they were different groups,still. I don't know what kind of school you go to, but I hope it's a good 1+you make more friends.Just know whatever happens, you are NEVER alone. God is with you!!

  • @larouxfan15 Also I know it's alot tougher 2day than it was4me back in the 70's+80's.But it hasn't changed completely.There are still the clicks.I know.I used2 teach.I saw it all.Plus I lived it.You know,thereR alot of kids2day just trying to fit in. Fit in a place where some R so mean,nasty.But honey, this time will go by b4 you know it! So find all the good you can+stay away from the bad.I got picked on for not smoking pot.At my 5th reunion every1 said I was cool for not doing it.

  • @larouxfan15 You may someday look back+say "I wish I could go back to school!" Maybe,maybe not. I wish I could do some things over,like working harder at doing my homework--instead of goofing off. But I never let anyone make me feel 2bad. Even when they picked on me4not doing what they did. My mom used to say "If every1 else jumped off the bridge,would you?" I thought "NO!"and I said "why would I?" and she'd say "OK,remember2be yourself+do what's right!" BeStrongJesusIsWithYouLovie.

  • @larouxfan15 The reason I say that is because it all does go by so fast, though it doesn't seem like it now.Just try to make the best of it. And if you don't have a good friend2 pal around with, well, just remember that is how it is so you will learn how to be strong without her.+God will get you through it. You will probably go a long way in life if you can learn things that other ppl never had2, like how2get through those tough times.You will prob be more compassionate than most!

  • @womanwonder10 thanks. i have a best friend other than the one i was talking about in my last reply. the other day i was feeling depressed because it was valentines day and im single. things get to me really easily.

  • @larouxfan15 You will have valentines in the future! And plenty. But you need to look up, not down. Follow God. He wants what's best for you. Good things will come your way if you put Jesus first He says in the Bible (the Book of TRUTH and LOVE from GOD), that you if U put Him first He will take care of the rest of your concerns.Believe it and look at the bigger picture! Hang onto Him. Ask Him to increase your Faith in Him and He will guide you to greater wisdom and opportunities.GB

  • @womanwonder10 im thinking about staying home from school because mornings at school are hell for me. i have been sitting at a table by myself until the bell rings for 1st period. i have been withdrawing socially and no one really acts like they want to hang out with me in the morning except for 1 friend and she wont be there. idk wat to do. i might ask my mom to stay home

  • @larouxfan15 You do not have2say but how old are you?It's something that I think you really ought2face and deal with it.I know it must be difficult,but it will make you stronger than taking the easy way out!But if you need to stay home and go in later--if you really have2--then do that.But do not let the other kids get you down.We've ALL been through tough times.Ask anyone on here!Honey,You will get thru this.I know you will.I wish I were there to HELP you!I will say a prayer4U!.<3

  • @womanwonder10 im 15. i have a support group i can go to. i might talk to them about it tommarow evening when i get home. im not sure what to do. ill probably just go to school. its just really painful to sit by myself in the mornings. a lot of times ill end up going upstairs for turorials or to hang out with a teacher. im stuck. i feel like theres no way around it

  • @larouxfan15 Yes,go2the support group!Go2the tutorials--how can that hurtU?You are learning,right?Anything good+virtuous is healthy2your mind---andURsituation at school! Learn all Ucan.And don't EVER listen2 Marilyn Manson AGAIN!He is so messed up that he canNOT and will never help you.He profits off of your misery! He is doing the work of the devil.Stay away from HIM--he will screw your head up AND LEAD YOU ASTAY IF YOU'D LET HIM.God,though,LovesU+will HELPya! Upray+I'll PRAY4U2!!

  • @womanwonder10 i dont listen to maralin mansons music anymore because i have been more interested in postitive songs and i know that listening to him will get me no where. i live in the US and there used to be some people picking on me but they stopped. i really hope they will never talk to me again. i get bullied every year. i havent been going to tutorials because i have no motivation to do so. it has something to do with being lonely. i will try to find some motivation to go.

  • @larouxfan15 I am so glad2hear that you do not listen2that crunk anymore! I wish I could do more2help you,but I can only be here4you.I know it helps2make yourself do those things that a) are helpful2others which can makeU feel valued/ b) do things that push you alittle so that you can be brought out of your shell(+by that I mean things that you don't think you can handle--little steps,to start)/GettingOut+WorkingorHel­pingOthersWillGrowYour Confidence! IGNOREmeanPPL+PayNoAttention2t­hem.Praying4U.

  • @womanwonder10 its just one problem after another. my friend is coming back tomarrow, but i got bad news about my cousin dennis. his mom died in ausust and hes still not over it. he hasnt been social and we might have to cancel seeing him on spring break. we already had to cancel seeing him when his mom died, and im worried he has chronic depression. im not sure what to do other than pray

  • @larouxfan15 I will pray for your cousin Dennis, too. Keep praying for him--he needs it now! Prayer is the most powerful thing! If he doesn't want to see you, he is probably really depressed.Remind him that you (love him)care deeply for him. Does he know how much Jesus loves him and what He did for Him?If not,this may be an opportunity. If he does know, he needs some support, which means prayer and listening to him, just letting him talk.Be a friend.I am thinking/praying for you!!

  • @womanwonder10 I`m not sure. i have reached my breaking point today at school about being lonely and depressed. i really dont know what to do and i dont think its going to change until my friend gets back. she was suppost to come back today, but she didnt.

  • @larouxfan15 You are going to have challenges come your way your whole life. How are you going to deal with them is going to lead you to strength, or timidity and weakness. Do you think you are the only person in the world who is lonely? I mean, really you're not. Like Mandisa says, sort of, this can make you stronger, STRONGER!Do not give up. Do not be a quitter.Plenty of those around:-( You can get thru this. I'm here. If you want, give me your e-mail+I'll write you.I'm a mother.+

  • @larouxfan15 If you are uncomfortable with that go to my channel (by clicking on my name womanwonder10, that's under the box, highlighted in blue). It's not all done--since they made changes with all Youtube channels and Ihave not had the time to redo it.Still alot of my stuff is there,so you can check me out.I want2 put a picture up when someone shows me how to.I liked it the way I had it,but I'll get it done when I have time.So leave me a message here or there I'll help,if I can!

  • @larouxfan15 Be strong and hold you head up! Do not let others get2U! I know that's easier said than done but it is DO-able.Is someone picking on you,or making fun of you?Can I ask you,do you live in England or the US or where?I am not asking you very personal questions,because I know I will not answer specific things either.But give me some general idea what is going on,if you want,and I will try2help ya out!Like I said I do/will not ask4 narrow,specific things=That's notRight!GBY!

  • i love this song.I listen to the fish every day .

  • Comment removed

  • i love your song

  • Hey, heard you were up all night Thinking about how your world ain't right And you wonder if things will ever get better And you're asking why is it always raining on you When all you want is just a little good news Instead of standing there stuck out in the weather

  • I love this song! I was feeling really down and having a hard time, went on to the radio and heard this. I am a christian, just not a very serious one. I still love this this, and I think it's really encouraging even if you're not religious :)

  • In the song it says when the waves are taking you under hold on just a little bit longer cause he knows that this is gonna make you stronger that says doesnt matter what ever comes your way our mighty God will make you stronger when you hold on a little bit longwe!!! :D

  • Hi Melodramaticists,

    On it! Stay strong - God loves you and will be with you ALWAYS! You belong to Him! Never forget!

  • @LoveGodLoveEachOther Thank you sooooooooooooo much : )

  • I'm going through a really hard time right now, this song is awfully encouraging, please pray for me </3

  • @TheMelodramaticists Are things going better for you? I hope so! Just keep holding on to Jesus and know that He is holding you! He really does love you and He will not abandon you. Please be very careful though about what sites you go on. Seriously, youtube has things on it (I found out for myself) that are not good and helpful for your mind. Stay on good encouraging Christian things and you will be better for it. I have learned--what you take in can build you up or do harm!

  • @womanwonder10 Thanks soooooooooooooo much! : ) Yeah things are going waaaaaaaaaay better, thanks for prayers and encouragement!

    Hey thanks all you guys for thumbing up my comment <3 And hey if any of you have emails feel free to pm me!

  • @TheMelodramaticists Awesome!! So glad to hear that!! Well, this is a good place to find good ppl who love God's son,Jesus! And if we love Jesus, we should love and pray for others when they need it. I am so happy to hear that. God is so good to us. He is always there for us, Loving and 4giving even when we know we don't deserve it. You take care, darling. If I don't ever meet you here, I will in Heaven,SweetHeart!! PS Check out GodVine sometime. It's really cool! Take Care.

  • @womanwonder10 mind Ok thanks I will : )

    Hey if you dont mind me asking how old are you?

  • so lovey

  • eigth grade is pretty harsh for a sheltered Christian girl. my friends are all kinds of messed up and i try to get them to come to Jesus but they just dont want to...whenever I feel like giving up on them I listen to this song. Thank you God for waves in my life.

  • @CarolineJesusFreak I know how you feel! Im in 8th grade and my friends dont like the whole jesus thing too... But dont ever give up!

  • Awesome...!

    

  • I heard this song on the radio a few nights ago and so i wrote down the chorus so i wouldn't forget it because the words to this song are so uplifting to those who look to the Savior of the World! =)

  • Love this song so much, it always seems to come on the radio right when i need to hear it (although at first I didn't want to hear the message). I just wanted my situation to be over, but God showed me that perservering through it was for my good. And yes it did make me stronger ;)

  • thiz song iz so amazing, one of my friendz sent it to me when i waz really down and depressed.... it literally saved me.

  • When you are grounded in the word and you trust God in everything and are focused on Him, you just get stronger and stronger, even in your trials and tribulations, knowing that He is always there: Deut 31:6; Heb 13:5. Your trials are building you up and shaping you to be a better person: Jam 1:3; 1 Pet 1:7; Rom 2:7; 5:3 - 5; 8:28; 2 Corinth 4:17 - 18; Coloss 1:11; 2 Thess 1:4, 3:5; Heb 10:36, 12:1; 2 Pet 1:6 and finally that nothing will separate you from the love of God: Romans 8:38

  • I have been going through a storm in my life and this song is so encouraging and up lifting and I truly believe the words to this song. I believe God is at work in my life right now. I talked to my ex girlfriend last night for the first time in a week and she is back reading the bible as I am too and God is helping both of us to get through this storm in our lives
