  • How do people not understand that by saying it's a song for GOD, its also a song about Love. Inherently, this song is about love, for switchfoot it's love for GOD, and for other listeners it can be love for a person. Why keep up the pointless debate? It's not like by calling it a love song, you offend GOD, and by calling it a GOD song, you dont say its not a love song. Its not like anyone ever wrote a song for GOD thats a hate song. -__-

  • This song is awesome!

  • I wanna be happy with him, and only him...hes the one I want for the rest of my life:( how come he cant just feel the same way about me

  • @RoogleDouver What part?

  • I don't Fckin care what it's made for .. For me and others it's a love song.

  • This is a CHRISTIAN song keep all ya's language to yourselves.

  • @hmhk1998 if you dont like it dont read the comments. we're not harming you in any way by using any language as long as its not directed at you.

    its not like we're stoping you beleiving or whatever.

    no offence intended...just stating the truth.

  • whoever it's for, it's good! 

  • To read a couple of really good articles about biblical salvation, please check out the scribd site that is listed on my channel.

  • I love you Kevin♥

  • esto se llama:....musica

  • Great song!!!

  • I made a playlist call "^lifting" (uplifting) if you'd like to listen to it.

  • Most songs are intended for open interpretation, if this song means something different to you then great, but don't tell me what it is "suppose" to mean.

  • @TEARfloodedOCEAN If you said something that meant one thing, wouldn't it drive you up the wall if everyone thought you meant something else? Same thing here. JazzyLovesHawkNelson is right - Switchfoot meant this as a love song for God. If it means something else to you, fine. But that's technically the way it is. Not everything is open to interpretation, thank goodness. Things would get way too complicated then.

  • @TEARfloodedOCEAN It's supposed to mean for God. Jon Foreman had said it.

  • i love this song!!

  • This is defiantly a love song you guys! But you see it isn't for a person, its a love song to God and for God, all christian songs are for Him. Its not called a divine romance for nothing!!!

  • when they sung this live and everyone joined in to sing with them it was magical ♥

  • The First Time I Heard This Song Was Yesterday Its Now My F a v o r i t e Song ! <3

  • @JuniorJimenez16 I first heard it about 2 hours ago and the same thing happened to me. It's just a magical, wonderful, amazing song! :)

  • i used to not sing about love, then i took a Switchfoot to the heart

  • @Darknerotoxin I didnt use to thumbs up comments like this but then i took an arrow to da knee:/

  • @bestmage7 THUMBS UP FOR SKYRIM!!!

  • 0:00

    

  • I love this song. :D

  • it doesnt rlly matter. i mean im a fan of switchfoot and i think their songs are meaningful and beatiful and what i like about them is that you can make up ur own little story to this song. so who cares about the REAL meaning! make your OWN meaning.

  • @person5899 alkjfhqweiu well said.

  • I had this song stuck in my head for a week. and during that week, I wrote the best love story ever.

  • Comment removed

  • My love was a melody...her love was a lie...</3

  • your love is a song, and that song is playing on and on <3 <3 <3

  • Weather the song was written about god or a girl... does it really matter? it's a beautiful song, and no one should force their beliefs on others. everyone should have their own view on what is published in the media world keeping in mind what the artist is trying to portray :)

  • @PCVSforever Very true, because we all have a free will. But Jon Foreman is talking about God's love. Also, he's a Christian, which I'm sure you know.

    Yeah, this song can be referred to one's love.

    Thanks for the comment (:

  • "I've been keeping my hopes unbroken."

    I have to keep enough hope for two people.

    One day, maybe, just maybe, we can be together. <3

  • soulful hits the spot

  • Some people say belief is blind, because there is no proof and of course you can not see it. Some people just want a reason for life and God, but why? Living in the dark can be best, for that is where you can imagine and dream, and that is what really helps the world go round. Don't demand exclamations off other people, because you don't need one. Things don't have to have a reason, and when they don't, those things end up being the best.

    For once, dream. Dream about what is and could be, create

  • I posted on this video 3 months ago about my dad passing away, I didn't realize how many like and comments I had. You would be surprised how much support you lose after the first couple of weeks. Everyone just resumes the same old routine. But its still different for me, and it will never be the same. It means a lot to see the support random strangers have given me. Thank you for that.

  • @RyanRanHome I'm sorry, about your dad. I couldn't imagine what you've been through :L

  • @RyanRanHome I am sorry about your dad. I know what you mean, tho... My dad past away on Thanksgiving (2011). Nothing is really the same, I know that everyone else has been moving on, but it is hard NOT to feel the changes happening. You don't realize how many people are there for you until some one close to you passes away. They seem to rise up for the occasion to help support you. Even if they are complete strangers.... I will be praying for you and your family...

  • This song is amazing, I could listen to this 24/7 ... the thing is.. thts what im doin =P and i love how this song wasnt written for a girl or someone that you love, but that is was made for god <3 well i guess it would be for someone you love because I love god.. <3

  • Your song is my love.

  • i'm so glad i found this song it's so beautiful *-*

  • Best song of the year!:)

  • @arianan1996 No, BEST SONG EVER!!

  • I love this song so very much. Yes it is written for God and what a glorious song to lift to the heavens for our Creator to feel just a tiny piece of our love for him! Thanks for sharing hun!

  • nice!! ;p God is Love. Jesus Christ is Love. Their Love is a Song for us.

  • ATHEISM.

  • muy bien!! pulgar arriba!

  • awesome song! and im sorry ryanranhome for your dad

  • just throwing this out there, god's not real. its proven fact

  • Comment removed

  • @kaitlyn123456100 cause I"M not to scared to know the truth about the universe. that's why religions were created, you know. cause people both didn't know and didn't want to. they wanted to remain ignorant from what really goes on past the blue sky about you. The bible is full of myths to provide an answer to the unanswered questions religious people don't want to know the answer to.

  • @CaptinAwesome87 im sorry but NO THERE IS NO PROVEN FACT that God isnt real Believe whatever you believe and I respect you butyou have NO right what so ever to be going around commenting on this beautiful video someone made and saying that"you know that it is a proven fact that God isnt real"and God IS real as ever could be I appreciate your opinion,but please keep your mouth shut,you could really hurt someone,what if there was a little kid on here?thank you and May God Bless:)

  • @iiJessicaiii ok then. sorry kids, ur blinded by lies. sorry. An another thing, prove it. You think this god i so real then prove it. ( and the bible doesn't count, love. sorry,but is got alot going against it). So, prove it to me. I dare you.

  • @CaptinAwesome87 How can you prove that he is not real?

    

  • @fhnoel1996 simply. I look up into the sky and know that no deity could ever have done that, no matter what religion. Also, science supports that a god is not possible. gods were created to supply a simple and sugar-coated answer to everything humans didnt know in the early years. The gods didnt need facts or proof, they just were, and still are. I'm not trying to dis anyone about believing. Believe what you want and follow you heart, but never forget, that earth is not at the center. Im sorry

  • @CaptinAwesome87 No, I am sorry that you don't know God and that you don't believe. I hope that you will be able to find him.

  • reminds me of an angel that completes me <3

  • ♥ ♥ ♥

  • awsome

  • ya no im not into these types of songs I like christian rap .. but dis is nice ♥

  • i love this song is very cool¡¡

  • thumps up if you can't see the dislike bar

  • @Ericman2043 wait,what? theres a dislike bar? @_@

  • @Shukuchi22 yes, its so small you can't see it :D

  • @Ericman2043 its 4-5 pixels actually.

  • People should learn more about the Power of Love not the Love of Power.

  • This song just puts me in a good mood :)

  • Amazing song<3 I love switchfoot. They always make me feel better.

  • I'm not going to lie I'm agnostic, but I think this is a beautiful song, to find peace and know that you're always loved by something powerful then you. Switchfoot has so pretty good songs.

  • Love this song

    Yes my LORD JESUS CHRIST my GOD your LOVE is a Song

    ♥♥♥♥♥

  • I just found this song in Pandora. I wonder where I was in 2009. This is an amazing song.

    I've been keeping my eyes wide open.

    I've been keeping my eyes wide open.

  • ESTA CHIDO

  • "I been keeping my eyes wide open."

    And I hope to see a way out of this addiction.

    1 Week & 4 Days Clean...

  • @Izzesz Good job. I don't know you, but the fact that you're trying to be clean is just awesome. Good luck, and pray. I can guarantee it will help! God bless you and help you! :))

  • @miss193 thanks so much! it's a struggle but with God's help i can get through anything..(:

  • @Izzesz you can do it<3

  • @Izzesz dont break ur streak

  • The best part of this song is 0:00-4:22

  • @PetunitaLove some r written right next to eachother dippy

  • ach wrong reply box hehe this was to MrSantascaresme

  • @11acblue theres only 8 facts actually...

  • @MrSantascaresme why dude? u did'nt smile D:

  • @11acblue lul i smiled a lil bit

  • TRHIS IS A GOOD SONG I LIK

  • I think this song can be interpretated in many ways, and the way this song makes others feel should be irrelavent to you. Don't let other people change the way you feel <3

  • Cant get enough of this song!!!

  • DISCIPLE 4-EVER!!! <33

    

  • For someone that is passionate about loving God, as is apparently the case with switchfoot, (Its pretty obvious for a lot of their other songs) that is also a songwriter for listeners who would listen to them even on a secular basis, its hard not for faith to spill out into what is written. However you interpret the song, I can assure you of where this man's heart was when he wrote it. This is a love song to God.

  • I pray for all of you who has had a loss of someone very special in your life. Even if they we're a Christian themselves. If you are a christian, Don't lose hope. God is with us EVERY step of life. Whether it seems like he is, or isn't. EMMANUAL!!!

    (God With Us)

  • This goes to show that even music for God can even be lovely for non-believers. Everytime I tell a friend I listen only to christian music I kno that gospel songs are going through theirs heads cause I give me the look like why would you only listen to that. But when l tell them about the different generes and how it almost sounds like the music they listen to only that its dedicated to God their like :o I love God!! :)

  • this is an amazing song. no matter what way you take it. =^)

  • love this song

  • @Jhuss9 im sorry to say it but "i love this song" how much it means to me

  • I can't believe the comments of haters swarming over almost ALL bands associated with Christianity. What's so wrong with choosing a life dedicated to one's convictions? Don't we all?

  • Muito linda essa músicaaaaaaaa!Amo!

  • beautiful no matter what religion u are personally im not christen but does it stop me from listening to this awesome music no

  • @MaisySan ops i meant to like ur comment but hit the rong btton

  • "Christians by faith, not by genre" -SF

  • This song is so beautiful :)

  • this song is truly amazing!! Love it with all my heart<3

  • well for a song for god, its really nice. :)

  • i luv this song!!!!

    

  • one of my fondest memorys is to this song,

    doesnt matter if its about god,

    a lover

    or the unconditional love of your family,

    its awesome.

    D

  • Love this song. For without love, is being without God.

  • This song means soooooo much to me!! GOD IS AWESOME and whoever does not think he made you and this world, do you think all the things on GOD'S green earth poped out of nowhere!! Keep that in mind next time you throw a ciggarette on the ground or litter! This is GOD'S planet..............not yours

  • very very very nice :')

  • My dad just past away Sunday, this song meant so much to him and to myself. The last three days without him have felt longer than the 17 years I had with him.

  • @RyanRanHome im SO sorry, you will be in my prayers (:

  • @RyanRanHome Did your Dad accept Jesus Christ as his Lord and savior? If he did he is in the best place imaginable. He's dressed in the softest clothe with the most beautiful man standing by him. Holding him. If you know God, you know that he is still with you. And your dad.

  • @RyanRanHome im so sorry about your dad ): Hope you get through it.

  • @RyanRanHome ... BE strong i know it can be hard But God does everything for a reason, your dad is with God and I am sure he is looking down at you all the time... His love for you will never fade and he wouldnt want you to be sad all the time .... God bless

  • @RyanRanHome Oh my gosh. I am so sorry for your loss. I will pray for you tonight. Way to keep your head held high. Stay strong. Your dad is watching over you. Hes keeping you safe.

  • @RyanRanHome i know what its like! im 15 and my dad died on January 30th, its been 11 months.. it feels like its been a lifetime and more... but at the same time every memory and feeling form that day he passed is so frsh i keep re-living itm it feels like it was yesterday. its tough but you aren't, stay strong

  • @motocross19 youre not alone*******************

  • @motocross19913 arent alone* i meant

  • (= i love this song <3

  • this song it great,its great to think about godd, although i am not christian i love this song! its to good of a song for some one to hate. XD BE WHO U WANT TO BE!!lolz :P

  • I'm Not Christian but I still Enjoy this Song.

    The Brilliance of this Song is that it can be Whatever you want to be.

    You can Interpret it as a Christian Song or Islamic.

    Perhaps the Writers were Inspired by Christianity but I think even they knew what Inspires them is not the Same for Others, Music is Everyone.

    They made a Song So Everyone can Listen to it, No matter who are or what you Believe in & that is the Beauty of this Song.

  • @ssohood2011 Islamic? Here are the lyrics that would fit muslims, "I want to kill your kids, I want to bomb your house, I want to kill infidels", That sounds about right.

  • Comment removed

  • @ssohood2011 People may interpret as they want, but they didn't make a song "for anyone to listen to"; I'm sure that they would encourage anyone to listen of course, but Christian bands aren't about selling out or conforming to the world, or saying that you can interpret them how you want for fear that people will be offended if their music was written for Jesus, not worldly approval. They're about glorifying Jesus Christ through their music and drawing people to Him in the process. =)

  • This is the best song ever written. They played this song at all of the concerts I've been to, and you would not believe the reaction from the crowd. Anyways, this is a christian song. WRITTEN FOR GOD. I'm christian, and you can take this song any way you want to, but it's for GOD. If you guys are going to argue about who this song is written for, then you don't understand this song. I mean, its CALLED You're love is a song, and you should be arguing about it.

  • Not everyone is going to interpret the song the same way. To think that is ridiculous. If Jon wrote it for God, that's fantastic. But it can also be interpretated about his wife, which is what I actually think. And I am a believer in God. The song can be seen from different viewpoints. And it's a beautiful song regardless.

  • @efawesomegirl i know! i was like 5 rows back from the stagee (:

  • :-)

    <3

  • @efawesomegirl yes i did !(:

  • i saw them live last night and it was amazing!(:

  • This is so inspiring

  • incredible song :)

  • it's unusual to find a song like this. just wanna jump into it :)

  • not for God from God...through one brilliant man's soul :)

  • This song played the day I had to put my pet down. I can't listen to the whole song. Leaving now... :(

  • @RICFLAIR420 I have yet to find a song by them that isn't good.

  • @RICFLAIR420 Are you kidding? just look at the suggestions bar on the right.

  • love love LOVE this song!!

  • I'm in love with you GOD. Nothing else matters but YOU.

  • I don't care if this song is made for God, or maybe the one I love. It's my choice but, I LOVE this song to Deathhh ! (= so dose my bf haha <3333

  • I personally don't think that commenting should be allowed on YouTube...because who cares if this song is Christian or not? It's just amazing, and that is why I'm listening to it.

  • @AnnaLeighification I agree 100%

  • @MsCandyCane159 Thanks :)

  • @AnnaLeighification I think commenting should be aloud... But I think the people who are saying horrible things should just not be aloud to comment.... Or people just not allow comments on certain things... If that didn't work then no commenting on youtube like you mentioned

  • This song makes me so happy. It makes me think of love. How Ill never have it. How Ill die alone.

  • @sooriginalful i feel the same way.. but the song is just soo relaxing makes me appericiate things more

    

  • @sooriginalful You won't technically die alone.... You will always have God with you
