@CowgirlTuff47 no don't feel guilty, cuz year ago, my dad was very ill .. and I called my friend crying , she told me that he's gonna be fine , then day after he died ..
the point is that she was being a good friend in that situation , just like you ..
just go to your friend and be with him he needs you now ..
@SuperKeith64 God can move through the people around you. He is always moving. He is always hoping. For you. If God is for you, who can be against you? Jesus said, "I am the vine, you are the branches." If we aren't connected to him, then we truly shrivel and die. Inside and out.
@igotanswers101 I dont think he is implying that message. I was confused when I first heard the song. I think what he is trying to say is you know need JESUS until your heart gets broken. And when you are with HIM the ''confusion and doubts you had up & walk away"
@Zer09iine In case you haven't noticed, Jesus freaks are proud to be Jesus freaks. I have something amazing to look forward to after this life. Do you?
@pinkfantasy9699 That's not what I'm saying. I'm talking about the people flipping out about the one line in the song when they don't even understand it. Because I laughed at the Jesus freaks (aka the funny comments), it makes me an Atheist? Quite an assumption, an ignorant one at that.
@mikumi0920 Nah, you're all fine. Guess I shouldn't have said Jesus freaks because I'm not trying to refer to everyone who believes in Jesus. Nothing wrong with that. :)
@Zer09iine Yeah. It's just sad that some christians reply badly to non-christians. Like how they're going to heaven and what about you kinda way. If you know what I mean. Just an observation.
@mikumi0920 I understand what you mean. As a christian, I am supposed to love. I Corinthians 13 - it's all about love. If I speak or act without love, I am just a noisy gong or a clanging symbal. Who would want to listen to that? Because I am saved doesn't make me special. I am no better than someone because I am a believer. Jesus saved me, therefore I am. He did the work. I just believe. It's my role now to love others as He loved me. At work, at home, on youtube :)
Christianity isn't a religion. Jesus came to abolish religion. Christianity is having a relationship with Christ. Religion can kill if you don't realize that you can't be a Christian by just following rules when that's not what it's about. Yeah I actually agrees with you. And I'm a devoted follower of Jesus.
Seriously, everybody listen. Ben was my counselor at Kanakuk which is a christian summer camp in Branson, Missouri about five years ago. He is a devout christian and everybody is misinterpreting the lyrics.
Seriously....why are people so offended if someone mentions Jesus? JESUS JESUS JESUS...yes that does say what you think it does. If you don't believe in Him then that's on you but don't bash someone else for believing in Him. Are you afraid that you like a song that has a positive reference to Him? I will never understand that if people truly don't believe in Him and if He is fake...then why spend so much energy trying to discredit Him and bash believers? Just saying...
I've been struggling to get my comic strips noticed, and would really appreciated if anyone could just take a few minutes of their time to check out my website. It's free! and if you like it, then sign the guestbook/fan page on the website!
The lyrics, "you don't need Jesus, till you're here" means that he never even called for Jesus until he got this big heartbreak and now he is calling for Him---- It is not offending as you thought it is...♪♥
I like how fickle people can be. Just because he says that one line you don't like it.... wow. I'm secular and Agnostic and I still listen to some Christian music and don't care. Keep an open mind peeps and enjoy the song. What I was thinking he meant is that ppl in hard times use Jesus or some religion as a crutch, so until you're here, he probably means you won't seek help aka Jesus, until you really need it when you're lost or hurt. I may not share the same beliefs, but it's good lyrics.
"You don't need Jesus, *Till you're here*" - Therefore in a certain position, realising actually how much you need him. I'm sure Ben did not write that line to offend any Religious Believers.
@Brianforeverbsb sure there are people, who need ther believe in Jesus und God and this stuff, but there are many others, who are happy without him. Who are happy with another religion or just with their life, even without any religion. That's what maybe is meant :)
what he is saying about the "You dont need Jesus, Til your Here" line is that we will need and we DO need Jesus. When our heart breaks it is hard to move on in life but when we have Jesus in our lives our problems fade and we realize that the Love that Christ showed/shows us is all we need
Why in the world is Ben Rector not extremely famous?! His songs are actually amazing compared to all of that junk on the radio (Christian radio music is terrible. It just says 'I love Jesus, God's awesome!' But BR's songs are about going through life in general with God and finding him. Not all of his songs, but the ones that do are the best songs I've ever heard.
I know the pain of heartbreak too. Three times. Being a Christian isn't easy. When you're broken like that, that's when you really need Jesus to help you, (but you still need Jesus everywhere, but he's the only one who can really heal a heart brake). And he healed me 3 times :).
Best song ever! I can relate to pretty much everything in this song!
this song is unbelievably beautiful. theres no two ways about it. the ability that ben rector has to really just rip emotion out of the listener is something that every musician should strive for. this is what music is all about. i dont care about what it means or the "christian influence" and whatnot, this is just an undeniably amazing piece of music.
In reading a lot of these comments there are many who are being controversial over the lyric "You don't need Jesus 'till your here". He isn't trying to say anything bad by this lyric or anything against Jesus. Simply that there are many whom only seek him when they are at a point in their lives when they are broken, lost, sad etc.
@viviangely And you don't need Jesus till your here means you don't realize how important Jesus is until something sad happens. That's when you want to pray that everything is going to be ok.
the "Don't need Jesus" seems almost satirical. In this song, Ben wrote about more than one broken relationship; We only call for Him in times of need, but it should be all the time. Every second of every day we should strive for a relationship with Him. Only hope.
guys, the lyrics are "you don't need Jesus till your here." I think his point is that its the brokenness that shakes you to your core that opens your eyes...
"Then confusion and the doubts you had
Up and walk away
They walk away
When a heart breaks"
I think he is saying you realize just how deeply you need Jesus, and everything else fades...
I don't want to push this idea on anyone... just contributing my thoughts based on experience.
I know what the line reads, but to the misunderstood, I'm seeing that you all believe EVERYONE is Christian, as if everyone always should be and always is dependant on one figure. Sure, I would like to think there's someone or something giving me bad luck when I don't need it, but frankly I see it as far-fetched. All respect to your ideas and faith, I'm not asking for a debate or argument, just wanted to show what the other side feels.
I don't know how other people interpret this song, but my friends Garrett died in a car accident a year and a half ago at a very sickening age 16. I think about him every day of my life and when heard this song I instantly cried because it described so accurately how I felt when he passed away, and how I still feel a year or so later. Damn, this is an amazing piece of music.
this song got to me right away... anyone knows where you can order the album in europe? I dont want an mp3 download, I want the real album in my hand!
In my opinion. He's saying that you don't need Jesus for every little obstacle, and that you realize it when faced with such an emotional punch such as a broken heart. In other words he's not here to help you win the lottery, he's here to help you save a life, or rise up in a horrible situation.
@viviangely The key word you're missing is "til". The point, I believe, being that people are often fine where they are, and believe they don't need Jesus "until" they experience some sort of crisis situation where their world is crumbling around them. That's when they cry out for God's help, etc. The implications of what that means are up to the listener.
I don't think you listened close enough. The line in question reads, "
This isn't easy
This isn't clear
And you don't need Jesus
Til you're here"
The key word you're missing is "til".

@buckylovee yeah i understand the thing is my main language is Spanish so i got confused but i don't like him saying "i don't need Jesus" all the time its just so catchy. its not right, he should have change that to "we all need Jesus" at the end or something... its my opinion. God Bless u all!
@FreddyLyle im not a hater my first language is spanish i got confused by the lyrics, but the truth is christian artists of today are not always talking directly about Jesus Christ because they are trying so hard for everyone to like their music they don't even talk about Jesus in the songs. example switchfoot i love all of their songs but their last album i'm not sure if they were talking about God or Buddah its just a mess. i'm sorry but its the truth.
@viviangely yeah you didnt listen to the lyrics good enough, hes saying that when your going through heartache the only one that you feel like can save you is jesus.
@viviangely ...he says "and you don't need Jesus til you're here"....meaning...you may not realize it until you have had something heartbreaking happen to you...i am fairly certain he is saying he does need Jesus...
@viviangely If you really listen he's saying that he felt like he didnt need jesus, until his heart broke...listen well and u'll understand better. hope it helps you understand :)
@viviangely I'm sure you've probably made up your mind on a view point so far, but I found out about Ben Rector through related artists to Needtobreathe. And all of the artists are Christian, so I'm thinking he is too. But this is the first I've heard of him. But I'd say it's a safe bet.
I think he is saying that many people dont seek christ until they are hurting or want something. I dont think he is saying that people dont need jesus...my thoughts
For you it may be the reason, it's not at all for me.
But I don't think he says something against Jesus, maybe he just wants to tell us that we can do something even without him (sorry my English isn't good)
@DrSheepdancer i am just saying what i think of the song and that line about "u dont need Jesus".... i respect everyone's opinion, i don't think this should all be a big issue or problem everyone haves different opinions and i have mine. period.
Klaine and Rane, we love you! Thank you CP Coulter, who brought them to life before us, no one could have written it better. You have changed Glee for me forever!
Love this song so much, Dalton brought me too. Haha the people who don't know Dalton have got to be wicked confused right now:) I feel like this could be aplied to more characters than just Blaine and Shane though, in a way it kind of represents Logan too. Or maybe I'm just biased because I ship Jogan so hard.
@justHI132peeps Dalton is a fanfiction based off of Glee written by CP Coulter. You should totally read it. Even if you don't watch glee, it's still an amazing piece of fiction.
I'm freaked out. I USED to follow CpCoulter's "Dalton", since I LOVE Glee and Klaine, and I was looking at Dave Barnes' "When A Heart Breaks" and thought this was the same song, but it isn't.....but omg I love it. I still just freaked out that my two loves collided by sheer luck. O_o
@TijaunV Same here! What's freakier is that people are commenting that this was shown in the fanfiction "Dalton", which I used to read religiously, but have since stopped. Totally coincidental. THAT is luck too! XD
no words can describe how good of a person ben is.. he sat down and talked to me face to face for about an hour, not talking about anything specific but just talking. he on the way to the top
I was a fan of Mr. Rector's before I read Dalton (I feel ahead of the times ;), but I'm so glad Cpcoulter gave Ben more fans. He deserves it. Especially since this is one of my favorite songs, ever. <3
clearly CP Coulter has an obsession with Ben Rector, but hey, if it hadn't been for her (him?) i wouldn't have known Ben Rector. So thank you, dear Dalton-writer. I love you and Ben Rector almost equally :)
Its not that you don't need jesus but when a heart breaks is when you need him the most expescially after losing someone you love

@viviangely The full verse "You don’t need Jesus til you’re here."
MsBaodacious 2 months ago
@viviangely I'm sure you've probably made up your mind on a view point so far, but I found out about Ben Rector through related artists to Needtobreathe. And all of the artists are Christian, so I'm thinking he is too. But this is the first I've heard of him. But I'd say it's a safe bet.

I think he is saying that many people dont seek christ until they are hurting or want something. I dont think he is saying that people dont need jesus...my thoughts

For you it may be the reason, it's not at all for me.
But I don't think he says something against Jesus, maybe he just wants to tell us that we can do something even without him (sorry my English isn't good)

@DrSheepdancer i am just saying what i think of the song and that line about "u dont need Jesus".... i respect everyone's opinion, i don't think this should all be a big issue or problem everyone haves different opinions and i have mine. period.

Love this song so much, Dalton brought me too. Haha the people who don't know Dalton have got to be wicked confused right now:) I feel like this could be aplied to more characters than just Blaine and Shane though, in a way it kind of represents Logan too. Or maybe I'm just biased because I ship Jogan so hard.

@justHI132peeps Dalton is a fanfiction based off of Glee written by CP Coulter. You should totally read it. Even if you don't watch glee, it's still an amazing piece of fiction.

I'm freaked out. I USED to follow CpCoulter's "Dalton", since I LOVE Glee and Klaine, and I was looking at Dave Barnes' "When A Heart Breaks" and thought this was the same song, but it isn't.....but omg I love it. I still just freaked out that my two loves collided by sheer luck. O_o

I was a fan of Mr. Rector's before I read Dalton (I feel ahead of the times ;), but I'm so glad Cpcoulter gave Ben more fans. He deserves it. Especially since this is one of my favorite songs, ever. <3

clearly CP Coulter has an obsession with Ben Rector, but hey, if it hadn't been for her (him?) i wouldn't have known Ben Rector. So thank you, dear Dalton-writer. I love you and Ben Rector almost equally :)
