  • This makes me love hom sooo much more. I love this song

  • I did not know that Owl City was Christian..... That just makes me like them even more. I love God he is my Comforter

  • Beautiful! This song has touched my soul..such a powerful message, Thank you for sharing your God-given talent with all of us!

  • wow wasnt expecting 78 veiws x) ty ima top comment wow ty so much guys ill sing it in church no doubt :)

  • @ThePenlessArbiter it was people like you that made me leave church

  • I stopped going to church years ago.. my reasons being my own.. but I listen to Owl City everyday. I have for four years straight. Every day. He keeps me going. (and Lights of course- but OC is always #1)

  • ThePenlessArbiter

    Yea.. what the fuck are you talking about. whats their to get. Adam is singing about Jesus, whats so hard to understand about that,?

  • I LOVE JESUS AND I LOVE OWL CITY

  • @ThePenlessArbiter you really have no idea what the fuck you are talking about do you -_-

  • @ThePenlessArbiter I agree with most of what you said at the beginning but.. WHAT?

    "December 21st is the day a MASSIVE polar shift is set to occur." What are you talking about? 0_o

  • Wow I love this! No guilt in life no fear if death. This is how we should all live like today is our last day. Because it could

  • Sorry, many artists cover spiritual or gospel songs, withour being christian.

  • @WaghRules

    "BB: You have talked openly about your faith in Christianity. Do you consider yourself a “Christian band” and how does this play into your music?

    Adam Young: Owl City is just me. I don’t write Christian songs but I am a Christian musician so I suppose the classification of the band is up to the listener. My faith is very important to me and is a very big part of who I am as an individual. It’s kind of up to you…"

    This was from an interview Adam did with Backbeat.

  • @WaghRules he is christian :)

  • THANK GOD HES A CHRISTIAN! I wouldn't a genius like this to go to hell.

  • @WaghRules yeah he is he said so himself, his religion is very important to him

  • @CTTlleida1 Excuse me.. But why would you even say that? Did you just come onto some Christian songs to write things like that? Have some respect for God and for yourself. I hope you grow up and mature a bit. Thanks you.

  • Good song

  • This is some good stuff

  • I'm not a Christian and this is absolutely beautiful. <3

  • @Aprilwolf94 you should be one!

  • Is he christian?

  • @WaghRules yes he is.

  • @WaghRules Well, judging by the song, I'm gonna have to say....no. *sarcasm*

  • @WaghRules Was that a rhetorical question? Did you read the title? Did you listen to the song? Did you understand the lyrics? Would someone make a song about following Christ if they weren't a Christian? Here's another song he slipped his Christian inspiration into Owl City - Galaxies.

  • Like a Boss:]

  • This song, is amazing.

    i had no clue he was a chirstian:]

  • Very nice

  • OOo On jest nawrócony?? Proszę o odpowiedź

  • this restores my faith

  • Just wrote a hymn based on this melody, good music! :)

  • This is not Owl City's best work. Granted, some of the imagery is nice. But I lose respect for an artist who can't express their faith creatively and with subtlety. Those are the most beautiful faith songs for me. This is a reiteration of every crappy contemporary Christian song ever. If you're going to praise your diety, don't do it with good music, not this pile of crap.

    good music:

    Crooked Still -Calvary

    Collective Soul - Heaven let your light shine down.

    now, go be musically literate.

  • @crafTfox Singing to God isn't about how good or crappy anyone judges you for it, its about what the song means to you. Do you know what musically literate means?

  • @crafTfox He didn't write this song

  • I just found out a girl I have a crush on likes someone else and I was crying a lot(I'm very emotional) and then I heard this and I now I know it'll be okay... God will take care of me 3

  • this song brings tears to my eyes. Love how puts feelings into words. Amen Owl City.

  • The key change in this song makes it even better.

  • god is the best.

  • 98 thousand views and 7 dislikes. What a bunch of cold hearted assholes. They don't know good music when they hear it.

  • And people wonder why I love Adam so much = )

  • <3

  • Looking at all the comments. This seriously is an Amazing song. Owl City is a great singer, but to know he's a Christian? Thats Epic. Also Listen to: Owl City How great the farthers love for us &&&&& Toby Mac ft.Owl City The first Noel

  • I LOVE IT!!!

  • Dear God,

    Thank you for saving me when i heard this song about 7 months ago i read that you knew me before i was born, so you knew what happened? u sawmy daddy leave, and me in the hosbital for brain bleeds, and when my step dad crashed and i broke my leg, and i cursed ur name, well now i no u and u love me no matter ware ive been and what i say, i just want to thank u for your word and for getting me out of satins hands, and saving my family i love you more then anything i cant wait to see u..

  • its a great cover, but its a victorious song, so maybe boom it out a bit more adam... (just my opinion not hating) god loves you.... not hating i promise

  • wow! this amazing

    My god saves <3

    he is my light, my strength, my song

    I literally have this on repeat :)

  • i don't like this. I LOVE THIS!:)!

  • when i thought about the words he was saying, it made me cry. it really is sad.

  • @Purplezcandy to some extent it is sad...and it makes me cry too, but for me, as a Christian it's a beautiful illustration of God unending love <3

  • i just started crying...this broke my heart to let him in and let him love me and let my self love Christ,this is beautiful...

  • I have always like that hymn, the guy sings it best out of all the musicians I have heard sing it.

  • I just got goosebumps listening to this.

  • @KDellzkeepsitreal good goose bumps or bad gosse bumps cause if it's bad i sware ill be vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvveeeeeeee­eeeeeeeerrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr­rryyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy angry!!!

  • amazing <3

  • I'll listen to this song from 7 in the morning to 11 at night and it NEVER GETS OLD!!!!

  • I believe...if every...single...person...in the world were truthfully told growing up, "There is a G-d, He made u, He loves u, He died for u, He wants joy in your life, He has a plan for your life, & u ought 2 love others as yourself," I'm sure the world would have all the "peace" & "prosperity" it's been asking for all the time. (Look at Rachel Scott!) JESUS is Life! (:

  • omg i didnt know owl city sang christian songs! i just knew about fireflies omg i love his voice and this song we sing this song in zoe at church

  • @DeweyBower the man who started the band in a born again christain

  • ....I remember the days I would listen to Owl City. I can't get enough of his music.

  • I was watching Marilyn Manson's 'Beautiful People' music video, and I was so scared that I was crying, so I came to this and prayed for God to keep me safe. Guess who's not afraid anymore? :)

  • if i were to pick up a snake, someone might think the snake is an evil ceature. i think of the snake as a misunderstood creature that's never been shown the respect it desearves. someone thinks of a dragon as a demon fom above, i think of it as a gentle giant flying through the breeze. someone thinks of night as being dark and evil. i think of night as a differant shade of light. someone thinks of the glass of being half empty. i start filling the glass back up

  • @themisterrandomshow What the heck are you talking about?

  • @sonicfanrs it's suppose to be a differeant perspective.

  • i love jesus and this is speaking to me good job adam verey good job i love your music espesialy this one i'm crying because theres another true believer very good:') ( tears).

  • @monster6940 Who cares about how many likes you get? Sing it anyway!

  • @monster6940 you don't need likes to sing a praise song. If you want to sing it at church then sing it :)

    God is open to all praise towards him <3

  • That song is the truth if only everyone knew that

  • This Song makes me cry

  • my best friend told me about this song while we were in church, about to sing it. i had to lok it up, and i love it

  • it's not about Adam Young , its all about Jesus .. this made my day .. :D

  • i almost cry when i hear this song and i never ever cry when i listen to music

  • This song is God-breathed. Now THAT is what makes it so amazing. :)

  • Amen. :)

  • This just reminds me that I will never b alone cuz he will alway b watching over me and I hav to say that it's just a gr8 feeling being a Christian cuz u don't every feel alone and u just feel more stronger with him by ur side and it really shows.. X :D

  • be still my beating heart...

  • It's not on iTunes... :(

  • Doesn't this just explain everything? I mean 'Everything'? I think it does. Cause, This song explains about the whole of Christ's Life. And then someone as famous as Owl City sings it. It gives me goose bumps to think that Adam Young Loves Christ like I do, Makes me Smile. Vote up if you agree. :')

  • Definitely a like.

  • this is the best song that i ever heard :D May God Bless Us

  • 5 isn't a lot of dislikes, but geez! How could you hate on this song! Seriously.....

  • @EmoCityMusic The ignorant and the fearful. But we are charged to love them all. (which I might add is much easier to do just after listening to this song) :)

  • this is amazing i love this!!!

  • Wow, I have never heard this song before, and I was already singing along to it. This, this is what I call music. This makes my heart lift up from it's sorrows. Adam Young has taken my breath away, once again. He knows just what to say to his fans. Everyone knows they love at least one of his songs, this is on my top. For I know he lives, and will return. My faith just keeps getting stronger each day. This week, is my best week ever. Even if it's only Tuesday. He has been with me.

  • god is groovy god is good god is king of the neighborhood! GO GOD!

  • this is my favourite song

    

  • <3

  • 1. i love you Jesus more than anything

    2. awesome cover Adam

  • @BellaSolveig Anti-planking. haha.

  • @bandg4evr2 no, he's planking the sky...

  • @BellaSolveig Thats exactly what I thought when I seen this! :D

  • My great grandma passed away a couple months ago and now I miss her but I now shes up in heaven with God and Her husband who passed on Easter. I started to go my own way before she passed and I didnt want anything to do with god and now scince shes gone ive been missing her so much. But my aunt showed me this song and it made me wanna cry because I thought of my great grandma who passed when she was 95 years old. I love you grandma :)

  • This actually made me cry, its so beautiful xxx

  • This guy. Such an incredible example for the kingdom of God. Love it.

  • Adam, my dear, your music always gives me chills. I love it and you. Keep up the amazing work, and God bless. Hope to see you in concert someday <3

  • Adam, my dear, your music always gives me chills. I love it and you. Keep up the amazing work, and God bless. Hope to see you in concert someday <3

  • I new he was a christian when I listened to meateor shower from ocean eyes

  • @thatgal731 yes!! also If you listen to the last part of Title Wave "...when I was given grace and love (I was blind but now I can see) 'cause I found a new Hope from Above and courage swept over me.....I don't need a telescope to see that there is hope and that makes me feel brave"

  • :O I Didn't knew he is a christian :D  Yay for Owl city

  • :)

  • this makes me love him even more! and i didn't even think that was possible. <3

  • Is Owl City a Christian band?

  • I love this! i really especially love that even though there are people who disapprove of him being a Christian there are so much more that love it.

  • this is the best version ever

  • this song is so anointed and amazing, me and my friend April love it so much.

  • Nice shoes, bro!

  • This is absolutely beautiful :')

  • I love this song!!!!!!!!!!! :D Christian's need 2 listen to this if they are being mad fun of...;D

  • Did Owl City die? I love this song!!!!!!!!!!! :D Christian's need 2 listen to this if they are being mad fun of...;D

  • Love this so much:)

  • super like! :)

  • thank god he realizes that god has given him his gift

  • His voice is so pure and sincere. God has truly given him a gift. Keep professing, Adam.

  • Thank you for posting this song :D It really remindes about the reason why I gave my life to Christ, and what promisis he has made to us ! Nothing less than pure awesomeness :)

  • Where did you get this? I couldn't find it on iTunes:(

  • I'm wondering why there are so little views compared to his other songs.

    

  • I love that the likes out weigh the dislikes by a long shot. For those who had the audacity to dislike it, shame on you. This song is so beautiful in so many ways, & praise the Lord that Adam isn't ashamed of his God; that should be inspirational to all Christians today to share the Good News of Jesus. Thanks for posting this. :)

  • cant wait to see him live at creation

  • cant wait to see him live at creation

  • I love this song.

  • God is using Adam's beautiful voice to speak to us (:

  • There's so many comments. Dude. 

  • @bandg4evr2 not to mention the fact that there are only 5 dislikes so far.. brilliant!!

  • OMG :")

  • God bless him :)

  • This made my day.

    GO Adam Young.

  • those who 5 dislike.is AntiChrist.

  • I am so glad that this didn't turn into a Christian non-Christian argument

  • when i was six years old, my mom died. and my dad left me. i went to live with my grandmother in the projects. im half asian (LAOS!) and half spanish (SPAIN!) and i lived in the deep south. so i was discriminated against. a little boy told me i was a sin in the second grade. i eventually went to a children's home, where i was adopted. now, i have an amazing life. and this song made me cry. because i once was lost but now am found <3 gracias a jesus!

  • @orgullaespanola As a fellow halfie in the south, I feel you bro. I too am discriminated against. If you need anyone to talk to ever, I'm just here on youtube =]

  • @orgullaespanola God Bless from Scotland

  • @wh1telightning19 it's only one guy but yes he is Christian.

  • beautiful 

  • they're a christian band?!?!?!?!?!?!

    wow...

  • @wh1telightning19 the majority of his songs are not religiously motivated, so why would you call him a christian artist? a guy can't write one song about his faith without everyone sequentially lumping him in christian music?

  • @3PACRepresent

    The qualifier "Christian" applies to one whose allegiance is to Jesus Christ. He is an artist and a Christian, tendering the title Christian Artist merit. It is not requisite than one's full lyrical catalogue comprise explicitly Christine doxology for to be crowned a Christian Artist. One may telegraph or semaphore tones touching Christ and yet earn the laurel.

  • @thecrownedone Stop trying to sound so educated. You're just making yourself look like an ass.

  • @thecrownedone

    if you're going to get into semantics that deep then i guess, but i mean imagine you're making a Christian radio station. Are you featuring Kanye West because of his one song "Jesus Walks", or Switchfoot, because a majority of their music is about Christianity? I think Kanye and Owl City are both Christian people, but on iTunes you'd never label them in the genre of "Christian"

  • @3PACRepresent i think that this is great. the are not afraid 2 make a statement about their faith and their belief in God. there is no reason for us 2 think this is stupid. Im a christian and ive been waiting 4 something like this 2 happen.

  • @AllUnderXAndA so what now people can't change or something?

  • Jesus commands my destiny (:

  • @ragarawr I agree!!!!!

    :)

  • @owlcitysf Yes yes haha its true (:

    Im thinking i might make a video that goes with this song as soon as im done with the one im currently working on

  • they needa do more songs like this! :)

  • amen

  • I LOVE I LOVEEEEEE ITTTTTT!!! <3 God bless youu ! and do more christian song ! :)

  • I love this song so much I am happy that owl city gave there time and effort sing this song :)

  • Owl City....does worship music!?!

  • 5 people don't stand in the power of Christ

  • @The202Nikki

    Sadly...yep!
