@Eckall I'm so glad to hear that. Our Savior Jesus Christ is all about Hope and Love. And I pray that what you sense is God speaking to your heart to let Him in!
I'm not religious by any means, I do believe in God, but I must admit I've done and do things that are not very christian of me, but this is a great song, and it actually makes me want to try and be more pleasing to God.
PLEASE PRAY FOR ME AND MY FRIENDS. THERE ARE PEOPLE THAT WE DEAL WITH ON A DAILY BASIS THAT ARE UNBELIEVERS. I AM ASKING STARTING AT 10:00 PM MOUNTAIN TIME- THAT YOU WOULD REBUKE THE DEVIL OUT OF THERE LIVES/ AND THAT GOD WOULD BE JUST. I AM A CHRISTIAN, AND THE DEMONS WILL NOT LEAVE. PLEASE PRAY THAT ALL THAT BELIEVE WILL BE COVERED WITH THE ARMOR OF GOD! PLEASE! PRAY FOR ME/ MY NAME IS CRYSTAL.. THE DEVIL IS LIAR. JESUS DIED FOR OUR SINS ON THE CROSS. GOD IS THE ONLY ONE THAT HAS POWER.
I think its creepy that people write romantic songs dedicated to God, this song could easily be dedicated to a girl, I think even the lord himself is creeped out by this type of music.
@eder333 In the bible we, the church, are referred to as the bride of Christ, so a "romantic" song isn't surprising it is how it should be that we love Christ as a wife is to love her husband and Christ loves us like a husband loves his wife :)
@eder333 Well, the relationship between God and his church (followers) is often compared to the spiritual relationship between a man and his wife. I think the reason why these songs could easily go both ways is because there is a lot of similarity between spiritual parts of the the relationships.
Our Youth Group does this song and its sooo powerfull and moving its an AMAZING song all I can say is THANK YOU Shawn McDonald!!!!!!!!! One of my fav. songs!!!!
@fezcufc So why are you even commenting or looking at God-related videos if you truly dont believe there is a God? to me it sounds like your interested but are afraid to see what it's like to have all the ignorance eventually stripped away from you. Theres hope for you yet, because God is a merciful God and will keep drawing you in until you either accept him or turn your back fully. God is so merciful he even loves the ignorant ones. :)
@fezcufc Why aren't we allowed to believe in God and Jesus? If you think everyone should be treated fairly and there should be no predjudice or hate, then why are you hating on us and our beliefs.
I don't presume to have the right to fully say His name. I don't claim to have the right to try, in my finite understanding, to label Him. It was initially done because there are no vowels in ancient Hebrew and the way it was spelled in Judaism. But I do it out of respect.
As science looks deeper into the tiny things that make the world is what it is to discredit G_d, I see the little miracles that He has made that makes me believe. "I thank you my G_d for letting me know." The precipice we are perched on, the razor's edge between life and our existence is too small for us to stand on without help from our maker and the creator.
The spelling "G-d" is so that there is no potential defacing of His name in print. Usually this applies to things that are physically printed like books, pamphlets, papers, etc, but some people contend that because an internet page can be printed, it is safer to spell it "G-d".
What a wonderful gift God has given us; to be able to live this life and use the gifts he has given us to bless others~thank you God~good job Shawn McDonald!!
Wow God is everything at least to me hes my life but I am so grateful that he has my life that I am hiss life becaus I could never ever deserve his love and grace he has shown me. everyday I wake up his mercies are a fresh
I heard this on Drop Dead Diva and fell in love with it instantly. I didn't realize it was a Christian song. Funny thing is I've been searching YouTube all day for great Christian songs to give me inspiration and now have one more to add to the list!
oh dude,.....if ya want some beasty christain songs man, try lookn up jon foreman,...spoken, red, kutlus, switchfoot, mxpx, clasic crime, ohh man, could go for aaggeess, hope you like em, btw all band names they are....;) God bless bro
You would not understand the love one has for God until you realize your need for Him...so your comment makes sense. I pray soon you do realize your need for a savior before it is too late. God bless you!
I'm with you kingoftheblumps... I first heard it on Drop Dead Diva and went looking for it. I have nothing against religion but I am an agnostic and, well, I was disappointed that it wasn't the love song I thought.
I heard this song at the end of a show, and it just took my breath away. I went on here to see if I could find it, but there were so many results. I saw The name Shawn McDonald, and I just new that this was the one. Thank you Lord for guiding me, even though it is something so simple. This song fills my heart with joy and hope!
see this is part of the good of religion. I don't know about god, what or if he exists, but when people make their beliefs do good for the world i really hope he is there. its when religion is used for bad that i really hate people who follow because they are told to. Anyway don't start a religious debate sorry...
but just a great song, religious or not. Has emotion! like it
trust me, He exists and He is what puts a smile on my face and can put an even bigger one on your face. Some religions are used to do wrong in God's name and I won't name nams because that would be wrong. But I have been a Christian for 8/9 years and it is sometimes a struggle but Jesus is worth every min of every day. He blesses in ways not even imaginable.
Of course not. You said use to. Well I don't know this, but I'd assume that was before he was truly in touch with God. Once someone accepts Jesus, they are purified of all their sin. There's no sin to great for Him to forgive and I'd assume that Shawn has repented.
no he is made whole by gods grace. listen to what u said "used to be" which means no longer, u can not go forward looking back. hes a new creature. ;-)
yeah they even used lycs my part is:sand on the shore and the waves in the sea the air in my lungs and the way you made me thats what draws me to you i am captivated by you
@paikimchung Its amazing how the Lord works! Lately I've been thinking about how hypocritical we can be, and how so few Christians truly live by God's word. I happened to read this comment, and it filled me with hope. Thank you for being a true follower of Christ in your comment and for this video!
I love the violin in this song. The lyrics are magical and truly convey a deep love for God. Shawn McDonald is a great artist and this video does him justice, good job.
"The heavens declare the glory of God; the skies proclaim the works of His hands. Day after day they pour forth speech; night after night they display knowledge. There is no speech of language where their voice is not heard. Their voice goes out into the all the eart, their words to the ends of the world." Psalm 19: 1-4 'I am captivated' by the beauty of His creation and His Love for us.
Love it.
