I haven't heard this song in a while and decided to listen to it today. It's a Sunday and I'm not at church for personal reasons. This kind of replenished my soul <3
The thing that I like about this song is that he is singing about Grace as if it's an actual entity. When you think about it that way, your perspective on God's grace changes for the good.
We had a name picked out for our daughter, and then changed it to Grace after hearing this song. It's a great opportunity to witness because we tell them about this song/lyrics when people ask why we chose the name! Love this song!
This is the most passionate, emotional and moving song I have ever heard in my entire life. You inspire me to be the best Christian I can be. Thank you.
Phil's guitar, regardless of chord tuning, is always half a step down. He plays a lot of his songs with the DADGAD tuning. If you have short fingers (like I do) you can pull off the same chords in Open D without so much of a stretch.
AMAZING! Glory to God, Forever....His grace is so incredible I cannot begin to understand the grace He shows to me everyday! Keep singin bro! By the way when is a raw, all-acoustic cd gonna come out?? That's really what I want...I love the studio stuff but wow would I love to have your acoustic stuff that is so raw and passionate!
@fatty777666 well most of the time the actual artist doesn't load his own videos onto youtube and update his facebook and myspace pages or write his biographies on sites (some do, but only a few) they have so much other stuff do be busy with, they have people who do that for them
@vanbeekrecordings not to be a jerk or anythin.....idk if your talkin bout Phil or Jesus when you say him but when talkin about Jesus you write it "Him" with a cap H cuz its the Lord (notice the cap L) but again idk who your talkin bout and again...not to be a jerk but a friendly correction =)
@vanbeekrecordings Amen! i hear what your saying ive been struggling with lust really bad and everytime i come running back to Him and His grace saves. I yearn for him so bad but my human nature beckons me back to sin and im fighting with all ive got and im just lost sometimes but songs and prayers like this get me back and i never stop fighting, never will. Godbless you Never Give In, Never Give Up
Even if you're not a believer, you have to admit, this guy is a fantastic songwriter. He has an amazing voice and he uses it like no one I've heard... ever. Thank God for Phil Wickham
Hey Phil, we've just started playing Cannons in our Church worship band, so I discovered you! Big fan already and I believe you may have met our drummer Joe Clegg from Burnley in England along with a great worship leader called Neil Wilson? God Bless you Phil!
I wish there was an acoustic cd of his out there. All the songs he has done acoustically sound amazing! Sure I can listen to them on a computer, but besides that we can't get the acoustic version.
You can convert songs on YouTube to MP3's so you can listen to them on your ipod or whatever. I use a program so I can listen to Phils stuff that is on YouTube but not available to buy. Like his live performances. Google will come up with plenty of choices.
I do not believe in GOD, but the fact remains, i keep listening to this song, it is a masterpiece. Amazing voice and Talent. You don't need to believe in GOD to appreciate what's beautiful.
amen, i totally agree. and yes, everyone can believe in whatever they want, because one day, every knee will bow down to Him, either in either praise or defeat. but still, one day, everyone will believe. Even though not everyone believes that.
Only when you see all the ugliness in the world you appreciate beauty :) Without Darkness you wouldn't know what light is, without misery you wouldn't know happiness. Without wrong you wouldn't know right. No one needs to tell you what is wrong and what is right. Everyone is born with the capacity to differentiate write from wrong. like i said before, it's all a matter of perspective.
Lol all of that is true my friend but who's the one that created the darkness? Who's the one who created the capacity to feel emotions such as misery? The credit in the end always goes to God. Whether or not you believe in him is your choice because, God, created you with free will to believe what you want. I am glad that you comment though. It's funny to see us squirm when you come up with a good point lol.
I love this song, this is the deepest song i have ever heard in my entire life. When ever i listen to this song it touches my soul and i feel like crying tears of joy. This is such a great spiritual song.
Every time I hear a new song by this dude...I bloody cry. Obviously a kin resonance. It is the soundtrack [to my life] that I have been praying for. The first time I heard this music...I was almost in shock that I actually liked...really like it. This is not the typical contrived "Christian Music" I am used to. This is a transparently genuine reflection of this person's soul and the struggle it faces being in the world juxtaposed to being a true believer. I am so deeply touched always.
Possibly the song I love most in the world! just stunning, beautiful music, a voice to soar in worship with and a truth in the lyrics that is the essence of the wonderous love of God, its all about Grace, "a person not a doctrine" (thanks Pastor Prince!)
Every time i have a tough day and need to spend time with God i put this song on and read my bible. Seriously your so amazing and i'm so happy you use your talents for praising Jesus :) Thanks so much
I love this song. It's awesome. I was at Frenzy on Saturday the 7th. I thought you we're brilliant. I got a picture with you but you probably don't remember me. Lol. I bought your CD.
Sing it, bro, sing it! Glory in the highest to the Lord Jesus! Who was and is and is to come! What a song of utter desperation and abandonment! I've prayed for that in my life the last few weeks and He's used this song especially in my pursuit of Him! Thanx Phil!<3 Peace and Grace be with you & yours now and always, man ~ Kev
