  • In Christ alone my hope is found<3 God loves you, don't ever forget it:)

  • why is it that justin bieber crap gets 700,000,000 viewers while real music like this gets only 187,081 viewers?

  • Comment removed

  • this would be the best video in all of youtube if he had a music video to go with it

  • oh yeah this song was posted 1 day before my birthday in 2010 :)

  • i knew that owl city was gonna be a christian band, as "fireflies" and "vanilla twilight" and the other songs didnt have anything evil in them, and usually the bands that arent evil eventually ed up christians

  • Is this on iTunes yet? I can't find it and would love to have it to listen to ALL THE TIME!! :)

  • I am addicted to owl city, im still young, ( not even a teen yet, lol ) but I've done some pretty dumb things, and this song, :D This song, it just, explodes the faith in me. It reminds me that I shouldn't dwell on what I have done, and it just makes me think, wow, God is great, and I can change my ways, with His help.

  • Ever since i heard the song "Fireflies" I have been addicted to Owl City

  • I always thought the members of owl city were Christian, BUT THIS CONFERS IT! YaY

  • @gudavepave Owl City is one person :) Adam Young is the one and only member of the band

  • 23 people are deaf and disliked it because it doesnt have lyrics ;P

  • @SmokyStormy1 if we're not once saved, always saved, then what are we? (I'm a Christian, so I'm speaking from that view, btw) Ephesians 2:8-10 states that we're saved by Grace alone through Faith alone, but not by us, but it's a gift from God. If you believe what you say, it makes your salvation based on works, and Eph 2:9 says its NOT by works, so no man can boast. It's, therefore, all on God, giving Him all the glory. We're not perfect, we falter all the time, that's why we need Jesus to save.

  • I want to buy this song on iTunes!!!!

  • Oh man, just listening to this gives me chills and i feel like crying :'3

  • I don't know if Adam Young will ever see this, but not to demand, but he should really consider doing "Come Thou Fount", as someone previously said... I would be eternally thankful... :)

  • i like it

  • I made a music video to this song, if you get a chance check it out! I absolutely LOVE owl city! <3

  • amazing!! :) i love this song god bless <33

  • This always makes me cry..

  • Adam is not afrad to show his love for God not only to alot of ppl but to himself.I LOVE GOD!!!!

  • JESUS ROCKS!

  • @gliders12 Two I think...

  • Gave me chills and made me tear up.so beautiful.

  • God has a love for us that no one could ever have....The tiniest blessing like you reading this right now can be a BIG thing.....He gives us soo many blessings and sometimes we dont notice.

  • Nice

  • How many key changes?? Anyone any guesses? haha :D

  • owl city seriously needs to do a version of "come thou found of every blessing". i would die <3

  • this is my absolute favorite hymn. it really means a lot to me.

  • I hope he makes more singles like this! I don't normally listen to Owl City, but this is awesome!

  • wow this is good

  • i never actually knew that adam young was a christian. i have peace of mind and a joyous heart knowing that people of faith are out there.

  • brilliant :) just brilliant

  • Do they have a "Love" button?

  • Praise be to God for Adam Young! This is evidence that God can work in the musicians works of art. People who think "Owl City" is secular need to look closer.

  • I love this song so much I can't wait to perform it in church on sunday

  • this song it amazing and so is adam young! i love owl city!♥

  • <3

  • Is it just me, or does anyone else feel that the download link shouldn't be used? A song of this quality needs to be paid for :)

  • is this the same owl city that did fireflies??

  • @bensaccount123 yeppers :)

  • @bensaccount123 ya bro!!

  • Been a while since I heard owl city. But to hear him like this brings back memories. And his rendition of this song blows me away.

  • God bless all and God bless Owl city :)

  • This version sounds soooo beautiful!!!!

  • I'd love to hear Adam's interpretation of Be Thou My Vision.

  • ohemgee. we need to get married.>w<iluv himand his songs. just beauftiful.

  • @NiGHTOwLXIII yes, he is always with you, but don't worry about if people tease you about it, keep your head held up high, and say " i am a follower of GOD forever!" it doesn't matter what they say, it is your choice, God will always e with you, shining his love on you where ever you go until you die, when you do, he will meet you there, i am the same way, still a little nervous on what to do, but god has helped me so much through it,

    May God live forever Amen

  • GOD FOREVER, HE WILL NEVER END, HE IS ALPHA AND OMEGA, BEGINGING AND END, HE SHALL LIVE FOREVER

  • YEYAH my mate who'se not even Christian posted this on my facebook page!! God is good!!

  • @Shelbliver God bless you, :)

  • I love Adam Young and Jesus Christ! God Bless Us All!

  • Wow. I've been dealing with some depression issues and sadness lately. But when I listen to this I feel totally okay.

    You're amazing Adam.

  • This guy TOTALLY owns Marylin Manson

  • @Eye2EyeIIIV Heck yeah!!! :)

  • @PunkyPink85

    your comment just made my day :)

  • @Eye2EyeIIIV Haha... You've made mine! Lots of kids hate Owl City and love Marylin Manson. I just wish they'd give Owl City a chance. :/ lol

  • Lush! Fantastic cover. One of my favourites and always gets the whole congregation singing. Here in the power of Christ I stand. Quite impressed that the comments below haven't turned out like many of the other youtube Christian dialogues where we normally have a nutter screaming 'the end is nigh, turn and burn'. Hats off to everyone for posting sane, positive and generally Christian comments. Love your work mr Young! Hooray for sane Christians all over the world!

  • @abigaillouise08 awsome same with me

  • This is a lovely version!

  • God you are the only true god! God you are amazing! ?:)

  • keep it up my brother never lose faith.

  • I love this song :)

  • Jesus is with every single day! I lost my faith for months and i prayed to him to for give me. And He change me! I still believe in Him! I will for all my life and i want my children to be a Christian! Jesus thank You!

  • @LoveWhales4life <3 :) He can do great things, can't He? God bless you :)

  • 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 to 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! (:

  • there is dislikers? really?.....wow.... i feel bad for them...poor def people ;(

  • Adam young u sir U SIR are the best dang person ever if i ever meet i will hugg u (: nd ima guyy btw and i love adam young

  • I like this version the best.

  • 20 dislikes from 20 atheists .....

  • This is so inspiring! I love the fact a contemporary artist can sing a hymn like this. Go Adam Young! :)

  • i love this cover ^_^

  • I'm a former Christian who has been struggling with my faith over the past few years... this song used to be my favorite hymn, and hearing this cover of it legitimately brought me to tears... I'm still not sure what I believe about the world, but either way, this was a beautiful rendition of a fantastic song.

  • @kyletinto Just remember, if you even have a faint thought that God is up there, the worst thing you can do is ignore him.

  • @kyletinto Hey Kyletinto, I don't usually respond to others comments, but your comment here caught my attention. I am just walking out of the door, but would be willing to dialog with you more if you would like. Just let me know. You had mentioned that you were a former Christian, a am assuming that you are saying a Christian by religion. I grew up as a “Christian” by religion. However, it didn’t truly change me. It wasn’t until I put my faith about Jesus into practice.

  • Comment removed

  • @kyletinto What I mean by this is that it takes more than believing. The scripture says “believe in your heart”, this is much different than believing in your head. Once I believed in my heart, my life changed forever. Since then, I have experienced joy in the midst of turmoil and peace in the middle of sorrow. Things that would be impossible through any other means than having a personal relationship with God. Let me know if you are interested in more. Have a great day.

  • @kyletinto please tell me why your faith is shaky...i truly want to hear why

  • @kyletinto Yay GOD LOVESS YOU hehehehhe!!

  • @kyletinto, man bro thats the holy spirit tugging at your heart...just seek after his face in pray and fasting..and I'm telling you he will answer you and I'm glad he touched your heart

  • @kyletinto You should look up the song "Break Every Chain" by Will Reagan and United Pursuit. It's a fantastic song. Just a suggestion. :3

  • @kyletinto ....its ok, we all struggle powerful trials here on earth, like the Bible says: All fall short of the Glory of God. But we as Christians are put to the hardest tests. God is always still with you....remember that.

  • Boy, Adam Young is really strong in his faith even though he has a lot of temptations as a clean musician.

  • @itsanawesomeguy If you want anyone to take you seriously, linking Jesus Christ with a Pink Unicorn automatically puts you in the corner with the mentally insane.

  • @itsanawesomeguy you might not know this, so i just want to throw it out there, but many of the events in the bible have been documented outside of the bible. Such as the apostles deaths, they all died but not in the bible, most of them were tortured to death, yet even in their last moments of life they never disbelieved . So, idk dude, it's kind of hard to call the bible a "Story book" when it's more of a "history book." the bible was written in a span of 1,600 years

  • @MeTickleDino lmao, at least your intelligent enough to attempt to uncover the factual history behind the bible, so I'm not going to flame you, it probably wouldn't do anything, you have to realize yourself if your a fool intuitively hoping for the protection of god, or a rationale thinker, living in the real world..w.e you want to do , do it as long as it makes you happy and doesn't fuck with the thinking of other people

  • @itsanawesomeguy sometimes you have to just respect people. obviously you aren't going to change your views over youtube. but trolling on a christian song wont get you very far when it comes to intellectual convos. but idk man, i'm a christian and i believe in Jesus and what he did for us. But if you dont believe there's no need for me to be casting pearls to swine. so i guess you can do you, but i ask that maybe you could respect this page just cause the song is one dedicated to God.

  • @kyletinto So did I. But that is him wanting you to seek him. Listen to "Restless" by Switchfoot off their new album. I went through the same thing, But Now, I am to the point where I am absolutely Sure Jesus is who he said He was. YOu will to, I promise.

  • @kyletinto come back man. The Lord really wants you back. you might not think it but they miss you man!

  • @kyletinto ..." No power of hell or scheme of man can ever pluck me from his hand..." It's songs like this that serve as reminders to those of us who stray away. I found Him again...keep searching...

  • @kyletinto I have to say this. Once a Christian, always a Christian. God loves you and always will. He'll always be there just waiting for you to return that love. Life has it's ups and downs, and we all get discouraged, but don't forget the one that loves you for who you are no matter what happens. The world has so many things going on that can confuse us and make us doubt our Faith, but once you know of God, and what He's done for us, I don't see how you could want to go back... He loves you:)

  • @stevenisapianoist + Sorry to interrupt, I used to be a christian. I am not longer a christian. I don't agree with your second sentence. +

  • @stevenisapianoist I'm sorry mate, but once saved always saved is a lie straight from the Devil.

    When someone is truly born again, they have been saved, are being saved and will be saved if they stay in the race and run it properly (by running it properly, I mean stay on fire Jesus, pick up their cross daily and follow him, turn away from the flesh and the things of this world etc..) If we're not in fire for Jesus, then it's time to repent and get on fire for him! God bless<3

  • @SmokyStormy1 I agree, but we are humans. We can't be expected to be perfect Christians everyday, even though that's what we should be doing, we all make mistakes that distance us from Him. As long as we truly have accepted Christ into our hearts, He is our Savior and we are forgiven for any sins that we may fall into. In the end, all who have truly accepted Him, will be accepted into the Kingdom of Heaven. It's written in John 3:36, and John 5:24. Among others.

  • @kyletinto I totally understand where you're coming from. Put your trust in God and He will show you true faith. Blessings to you.

  • @kyletinto I know that sounds cliche and sappy, but it's completely true. I don't know if you believe in prophetic words or in being moved by the holy spirit, but i do. And I'm crying as i write this. So just know that you are loved. I felt like I just had to tell you.

  • @kyletinto I don't know where you are in your walk with Jesus, and I honestly don't care about that. I just want you to know that after I read your comment and was listening to this song, all i could think was that no matter what you believe, God believes in you.

  • This is so beautiful.

  • Thanks for this, Adam. This got me crying at my computer. Thank you for never losing your integrity. :')

  • 20 people are Athiest

  • I find it unlikely that sangaria believes their own comment. Just out there stirring up fires

  • i like devil wears prada

  • Such a beautiful song. Thanks for doing this cover!

  • Owl City, aka Adam, is a huge christian

  • Umm...In Christ alone is not a Hymn? and why is owl city singing it? are they Christian? i kinda doubt. i mean its cool they are singing about Jesus, but God hates the half and half ppl (the luke warm ppl) so i think they should be all or nothing...singing one christian song does not make up for all the nonchristian songs they sing...

  • @Sangaria5 god does not hate anybody. he loves us all. it doesnt matter wat for songs hes sung in the past, as long as his heart is right before God. it doesnt matter wat sins we have commited in the past because of Jesus Christ!!! Didnt u just hear that in the song?

    

  • @Sangaria5 Owl City (aka Adam Young) is a very devoted Christian, and there are several songs referring to his faith if you listen to them. And just because every one of his songs does not sing about God, this does not make him a "lukewarm" Christian. All his songs are uplifting without cursing or secular topics. Adam Young is an amazing persona and a great inspiration to me as a Christian.

  • @crzynlvwu i agree with u comepletely...and thats why i love owl city and adam young so much...his songs r so uplifting...i love ALL his songs and they make me happy everytime i listen 2 them...and he shows that u dont have curse 2 make great songs

  • 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! (:

    ~ Josiah-David ~

  • @Sangaria5 have you ever heard galaxies? or any of there other songs for that matter? almost all of them have christian undertones.

  • @Sangaria5 God doesn't hate anybody. And that's what makes being a Christian so awesome. :)

  • @Sangaria5 I would like you to tell me one "bad" song Adam Young has ever sang

  • @Sangaria5 Owl city is a synthpop/electropop band, but Adam young is a Christian

  • @Sangaria5 Being a Christian musician doesn't mean you have to sing all worship songs. It means you have to love God with all your heart, and shine light where there's darkness. God loves everyone so, so much! And Adam is doing such a wonderful job of spreading hope and joy to people who may not have that in their life. God bless Adam Young. He is such a gifted, wonderful person.

  • @TessaJohnsonMusic yessss you are pure genius <33

  • Sometimes, I doubt. Everything. Who I am. Why I was put here. Whats my purpose. Why I was born talentless and worthless.

    Then I listen.

    To this song.

    And I remember.

  • Jesus will forgive me for raping the replay button. I love this song so much. Praise God for everything.

  • @keymo1337 Hahaha

  • King Jesus is a beast! Ferociously in love with His family. Crazy-patient with a dum-dum like me. And He purchased Eternity Enjoyed for people who hated Him. Yeah...that's love.

  • 18 people are witches and need burnt at the stake.

  • This song makes me tear up every time... It reminds me of where I was before Him. I owe Him my everything for his grace... I love you Jesus, my Saviour.

  • Everytime I hear Adam sing this, I get goosebumps.

    Thank you Jesus for everything. No guilt in life, no fear in death.

  • Goosebumps. Every time...

  • I love this! God bless everyone!

  • im trying so hard to get the piano sheet any suggestions?

  • AMEN!!...

  • those dislikers don't respect GOD.....

  • Adam is like my inspiration. His voice, his love for Christ, and his ability to love others.

  • @MyNameShouldBeMark- Amen to that.

  • @amo15999 whats that one hym that owl city sings then

  • did he wrote this

  • Wow i heard this on a christian station and thought it sounded like adam young but wasnt sure. GOD bless you adam young!

  • @OnKneesforJesus2 . I'm disappointed. Look, so many people told you off, and watch, now your too good to reply? Yeah, right. You can't live up to your name. You can't just go and get all over people for sharing their feelings. Adam is a very strong Christian, and your obviously too embarrassed to live up to your YouTube name. Good day.

  • @fuzztanks , both you and @murfcakes suck. Leave. He is fricken amazing-3

  • I LOVE THIS SONG!!!! :D

  • @murfcakes hahahaha amen!

  • WOW!!! I didn't know Owl City sang Christian Songs! Well, I guess I learn something new every day! Thanks for uploading!

  • OWL CITY!

    

  • whoa sooo didnt know they sang christian music this has seriously just made my life=D

  • @lilbluegrrl its not they its HIM. so it can't have changed your life that much

  • soo good. that is all...

  • i love jesus crystals

  • So powerful. It brought me to tears.

  • I respect Adam so much for this. I wish I had the guts he has :)

  • Dear Owl City, More of this please! 

  • I'm not even religious, and I'm having this on repeat. You're beautiful Adam. <3

  • great song 

  • @theycallmearnold yeah, I know most of his songs aren't all christiainly:D

  • Wow.......I think I like Owl City even more than I did! Amazing cover! I think will make me an even bigger fan of Adam Young!

  • this is my favorite song!!! yay!

  • Is Owl City a Christian band? I am Christian, and I like meeting new people who believe-in God:D God Bless!:D

  • to all Christians we are to be "christ like" be careful with what we say because Christians have been known by being hypocritical, and judgemental. John 3:16 is the most famous verse. but John 3:17 says "for he did not come to the world to condemn it, but to save it through him." We are not called to judge others or condemn them. were here to spread the love of Christ. and we were created to have a relationship with him. WWJD? i can tell you it wasnt to tell people God hates them. but loves them

  • i think its pretty sad that this guys account was called @OnKneesforJesus2 but yet he isnt even proud of what we believe, the only comment he could make an argue about was saying this song was a fallback. case he does not know famous people have a lot of stress and cant reply to every single message they get cause they prob have millions of fan mail. If Owl City isnt really a christian (which he says in his bio he is but if hes lying) then okay. it was still a beast song respected by Christians

  • at first, i did not like Owl City cause Adam is a very popular artist. i dont normally listen to popular artists that you see people always are freaking out about, why? idk lol i just dont. i thought "just another secular music artist like Justin Bieber or something" but i never in my mind could ever think or be so surprised to find out Adam is a christian, this surprised me so much :) i have now such high props for Adam.

  • OMG!!! I DIDNT KNOW THESE EXISTED D: I'M CRYING WITH JOY <3

  • We made god in our image.

  • Okay, it says there is a download link. Does this mean that I can get this song somewhere on this page?? I don't see the link if there is a link!

  • I love this song. He should do more christian songs so he ends up on k-love radio
