Faith comes through knowledge. Not your ordinary book knowledge, but knowledge through experiencing God and reading His Word. I'm a Christian and I doubt, even his existence. This song helps me to remember the things God has done for me in my life. The times where he revealed his presence to me and I felt him inside of me. There are no scientific explanations to those experiences I have gone through. It's purely the work of my Father.
Revelation is what we need, knowledge is just that but revelation is God's words alive in us. We have a soul and we have a spirit. Our soul is were our emotions resides, our thoughts our logic, but our spirit which starts living when we accept Jesus, that is were God speaks to us, were we receive revelation and God's peace. The more you feed your spirit the stronger it gets, but our natural self , our soul and body don't want our spirit to be alive, because we come from an earthly sinful natural. But God starts a process in us when we surrender to Him. It's long but it's worth it.
I've tried to stand my ground I've tried to understand But I can't seem to find my way again Like water on the sand Or grasping at the wind I keep on falling short Please be my strength Please be my strength I don't have anymore I don't have anymore I'm looking for a place Where I can plant my Faith One thing I know for sure I cannot create it I cannot sustain it It's Your love that's keeping me
This is one of those Holy Spirit inspired songs that got me through one of the toughest times in my life. Why doesn't God remove evil you say? Just wait. He will.
Feels wild this song is 10 years old! I was listening to Please Be My Strength when the words gripped my spirit & God called me out of darkness and into His light. The truth spoken in this song was the nudge I needed to give my life to Christ. I lift up all the folks whose hearts have been touched by these lyrics 💕
I feel that gungor is one of those bands that is the most underrated in Christian music. Had wrote lyrics that were deep for the church setting and a unique style.
This song is especially potent for people going through chronic illness. Thank you so much for being available for the Lord to use in this powerful way.
One of my favorite songs in the world. Based upon scripture I know tha God loves this song, because it is built upon a heart of humility. Humility allows God to be glorified in our lives. Gungor is the real deal. Please be my strength Precious father..Please be my strength.
I lost a best friend awhile ago, me and him used to listen to this song all the time.. We ended it because of theological differences.. Stupid right? Love will always unify us and keep us together. And I come back to this song today in mourning, asking God to please be my strength.. I miss him dearly. Love you all. Blessings.
Friends and Family will always fail us. There is no guarentee they will love you unconditionally for every piece of your soul, your secrets, your failures. They will in the end, let you down
We did this song today at church with men vocals... these weren't singers just men... three of us read the first three verses and softly sang the choruses... we doubled up some humming parts for a bassy addition... it was so powerful! Gungor is doing some great things here! :)
I'm looking for a place that I can plant my faith one thing I know for sure I cannot create it I cannot sustain it It's Your love that's keeping (captured) me Please be my strength... at my final breath I hope that I can say I've fought the good fight of faith I pray your glory shines through this doubting heart of mine so my world would know that You You are my strength You and You alone You and You alone Keep bringin me back home- on the tag
I am checking out this song after discovering Beautiful Things. Praise God for the beautiful music with such beautiful , honest conversations with God and beautiful instrumental compositions.
Graiskye - Even though you say you are not a Christian - God created you in his image and loved you then as much as he loves you now. All humans experience and go through the sin of this world. When you are ready to let God into your life, your heart with melt with this truth and your soul will cry in response to to the realization that God is the only way to peace... As our man Mike sings about - 'please be my strength because i don't have anymore.' Glad you liked his music
This song always brings me back home day and day again. Thank you Michael Gungor for this honest and unbelievably touching song. You and your wife are a godsend.
And since that time, I have Given my entire Life to Jesus. He not only showed me he was real, he has proven himself trustworthy. I give him my worries and problems and he comes thru for me time and time again. "Lord I pray for Weston right now that you show him your love, you pour out your heart to him. Reveal that you are True and Good, that you are pursuing him even now."
The more I interact with you, the more grateful I am to God for knowing Him (not ment to offend you). I am grateful to Him for saving me from myself. His tender love is the fuel for my existence. I would rather die than not have Him in my life and spirit. There is nothng better than Him...nothing. I thank God that I can see and hear the Truth! I am safe in Him. I know where I'm going once I die. You will face Him too, when the day comes Weston, whether you believe or no. I pray for you.
I understand all the questions, I had them too, I worked in a laws office for over ten years and held facts and reasoning at a very high regard, so I search and I found truth but so much more, I found a Savior, a God who loves me more than I could ever ask or imagine, and He loves you too...he wants no one to perish ..choose Him to be your strength , it's a beautiful thing...lovely song...I'm so inspired ...thank you ❤
I think that itself, is the awesomeness of God, the fact that through him all things are possible and such as faith. I just dont understand how faith can be translated as gullibility,because to me faith is a miracle.Why do people need to have proof all the time why cant some things just be and whatever people may believe in be just that, what they believe in. Why should believers have to prove their beliefs. I think its a damn shame that people bash other peoples beliefs.
He fears that our choice will leave us eternally seperated from him. He will not force anyone who chose not to choose him (love him) to be with him in spite of our choice. He did not make us to be moral robots, as he loved us enough to give us free will. True Love is having the choice not to love. How do we know that our spouse truly loves us, if they didn't have an option not to love us? God came in the flesh and suffered for us, so that we don't have to....accept his gift of true Love.
What is truly amazing, is that he could have gone for more popularity and fame, because without a doubt, he has amazing skill, but he is so humbled, he chooses to glorify God's name. Amazing. I would love to hear them live. Keep it up :)
listening to this def encouraged me. feeling like the wind was knocked out of me. I don't know how to move forward. i'm just stuck.. please be my strength, because I don't have anymore.
i am living by this song right now....my heart is in the balance and this song really gives me strengh!!!! i cant wait to hear more:D your songs are amazing and beautiful and i am in love with you guys!!!!
You walk by what you see! What you see is ever changing. One day you believe in red- the next day your told red is wrong for you and the pick of the day now is blue. Sorry- I know who God is and He is the same yesterday, today and for eternity. I will respect your beliefs(not agree). This is where we come to an end because otherwise, we can go on and on. Remember you are love by God and He will take you when you're ready. I hope its soon. Peace be with you Mr. Weston.
A message to those who echo this song, Once ye find faith then you found love, you may think you have given up on love, you havnt, you merely missplaced it, ask jesus to show you where it is, and He will be faithful and show you that its never lost for His Love has always been in you, now be strong in the lord, renewed in His Love For You Amen, He Never Gives Up On You, therefore ect ect ect hallelujah
You're choosing a belief that feels good to you. People all over the world choose some variation of a belief in a powerful protector. They do this out of fear of truth. As long as you're choosing your beliefs based on how they make you feel, you're just chasing your own fantasies. An honest search for truth doesn't consider how comfortable a belief is. Courage is choosing the beliefs that are supported by evidence, especially when they are not comforting.
I'm glad you responded. I once hated the idea of knowing or believing in God too. With all the hurt in my life I couldn't understand about this God either. Let me tell you what I've learned: He (God) knows me more than I know myself. He knows my heart to the core. He knows my suffering and pain. And in spite of who I am, He loves me. He loves you too. Doesnt it at least spark your curiosity to at least ask Him to show Himself to you? I think you're ready for this...give it a try! I did 13yrs ago
This song is simply beautiful. So honest and intimate. Very simple but it never loses my attention throughout the entire song. Awesome musicianship! Anyone know what guitar Michael is playing? It's totally perfect for this song.. sounds a bit sharper than a usual classical guitar. Anyone know whether its the guitar or perhaps the type of strings he's using? I dig it :)
Faith comes through knowledge. Not your ordinary book knowledge, but knowledge through experiencing God and reading His Word. I'm a Christian and I doubt, even his existence.

I've tried to stand my ground I've tried to understand But I can't seem to find my way again
Like water on the sand Or grasping at the wind I keep on falling short
Please be my strength Please be my strength I don't have anymore I don't have anymore
I'm looking for a place Where I can plant my Faith One thing I know for sure
I cannot create it I cannot sustain it It's Your love that's keeping me
This is one of those Holy Spirit inspired songs that got me through one of the toughest times in my life. Why doesn't God remove evil you say? Just wait. He will.
" This is one of the best songs I've ever heard in my life and I turn 43 next month.
Simply beautiful !!!
Hi Eric, your 52 now!
Feels wild this song is 10 years old! I was listening to Please Be My Strength when the words gripped my spirit & God called me out of darkness and into His light. The truth spoken in this song was the nudge I needed to give my life to Christ. I lift up all the folks whose hearts have been touched by these lyrics 💕
When God is all you have, you find out He is all you need. Thank you Gungor for such a breath of fresh air.
Why isn't Gungor more popular?! One day it will be known as the best praise band.
Didn't happen brother. But God knows they brought hope to a lot of us. And that's what counts. I prefer Gungor over Hillsong and everything
I feel that gungor is one of those bands that is the most underrated in Christian music. Had wrote lyrics that were deep for the church setting and a unique style.
This song is especially potent for people going through chronic illness. Thank you so much for being available for the Lord to use in this powerful way.
...and depression.
God can
@@singing4hope too relateable :(
One of my favorite songs in the world. Based upon scripture I know tha God loves this song, because it is built upon a heart of humility. Humility allows God to be glorified in our lives. Gungor is the real deal. Please be my strength Precious father..Please be my strength.
God please be my strength. my grandfather just died. God please give me the strength to continue to serve you and praise you even now.
I lost a best friend awhile ago, me and him used to listen to this song all the time.. We ended it because of theological differences.. Stupid right? Love will always unify us and keep us together. And I come back to this song today in mourning, asking God to please be my strength.. I miss him dearly.
Love you all. Blessings.
❤ May Gob bless you
This is not the end. Praying for reconciliation. :) The most important thing is God has already reconciled us to Himself.
Friends and Family will always fail us. There is no guarentee they will love you unconditionally for every piece of your soul, your secrets, your failures. They will in the end, let you down
God, keep the Gungors strong and help them to grow in their faith. Let your spirit dwell in them.
I bought this CD and I cant stop listening to it. So uplifting !
Thank you Jesus for being my strength !
We did this song today at church with men vocals... these weren't singers just men... three of us read the first three verses and softly sang the choruses... we doubled up some humming parts for a bassy addition... it was so powerful! Gungor is doing some great things here! :)
I'm looking for a place
that I can plant my faith
one thing I know for sure
I cannot create it
I cannot sustain it
It's Your love that's keeping (captured) me
Please be my strength...
at my final breath
I hope that I can say
I've fought the good fight of faith
I pray your glory shines
through this doubting heart of mine
so my world would know that You
You are my strength
You and You alone
You and You alone
Keep bringin me back home- on the tag
I am checking out this song after discovering Beautiful Things. Praise God for the beautiful music with such beautiful , honest conversations with God and beautiful instrumental compositions.
Still here and still think that it's one of the most incredible and soothing song, album.
Glad I'm not the only one! It really has aged extremely well.
Psalms 23: The lord is my sheperd i shall not want he leads me beside the calm waters............... praise Lord OUR only PRESIOUSE GOD!!!!!!
I can't get over how incredibly beautiful this song is. I have listened to it so many times, and I just keep coming back for another listen. ❤😊❤😊

Le agradezco a Dios porque Dios ha sido mi fuerza en mis momentos más difíciles. !!
need your strength my lord..
I understand all the questions, I had them too, I worked in a laws office for over ten years and held facts and reasoning at a very high regard, so I search and I found truth but so much more, I found a Savior, a God who loves me more than I could ever ask or imagine, and He loves you too...he wants no one to perish ..choose Him to be your strength , it's a beautiful thing...lovely song...I'm so inspired ...thank you ❤

Sensacional 🙏
This song is on repeat ....Lord please be my strength ♥
I'm really loving this band. You're good for my heart.
such a beautiful song. Gets me thru the tough days.... may GOD bless michael and lisa
A like is not enough for this song. So beautiful. God is my strength
I just heard of his music today and I love it. His voice is sincere and I can hear the love coming from his heart.
HE is our strength, we have none without Him. John 5:5
In my opinion Gungor's performance in Relevant Studio is brand new quality and style in christian music.
He fears that our choice will leave us eternally seperated from him. He will not force anyone who chose not to choose him (love him) to be with him in spite of our choice. He did not make us to be moral robots, as he loved us enough to give us free will. True Love is having the choice not to love. How do we know that our spouse truly loves us, if they didn't have an option not to love us? God came in the flesh and suffered for us, so that we don't have to....accept his gift of true Love.
Real songs of Faith talk about questioning faith and temporarily losing faith...but it is always there for anyone who fights for it
Its You and You alone, keep bringing me back home
I have listened to this song at least 50 times today. LOVE it!
What is truly amazing, is that he could have gone for more popularity and fame, because without a doubt, he has amazing skill, but he is so humbled, he chooses to glorify God's name. Amazing. I would love to hear them live. Keep it up :)
Great Song. I love you Lord Jesus. Thank you for being my strength and peace in this life.
listening to this def encouraged me. feeling like the wind was knocked out of me. I don't know how to move forward. i'm just stuck.. please be my strength, because I don't have anymore.
So beautiful... I believe that fully, the Lord is my strenght
Just beautiful... Song of God
De esas canciones que llegan a lo profundo de tu corazon, Dios , por favor sé mi fortaleza. Que hermosa lirica. Honesta , simple y sincera.
Thankyou for your strength Lord. There is nothing like it.
Beautifully vulnerable and honest

3:02 to 3:07 gives me chills every time. Sooooooo gooood.
You walk by what you see! What you see is ever changing. One day you believe in red- the next day your told red is wrong for you and the pick of the day now is blue. Sorry- I know who God is and He is the same yesterday, today and for eternity. I will respect your beliefs(not agree). This is where we come to an end because otherwise, we can go on and on. Remember you are love by God and He will take you when you're ready. I hope its soon. Peace be with you Mr. Weston.
i heart the guitar chords.. :) Please be our strength DEAR LORD JESUS.. this is so pleasant sounding~~ guitar & cello (chel-oh)
A message to those who echo this song, Once ye find faith then you found love, you may think you have given up on love, you havnt, you merely missplaced it, ask jesus to show you where it is, and He will be faithful and show you that its never lost for His Love has always been in you, now be strong in the lord, renewed in His Love For You Amen, He Never Gives Up On You, therefore ect ect ect hallelujah
Why is there almost always 1 dislike on Gungor's songs?? This song gives me Jesus bumps!
I don't possess the amount of hubris it takes to believe the creator of the universe is listening to my thoughts, and cares to answer my requests.
Love it!!! "my strength is made perfect in weakness"
We all need the lord to be our strength
love the cello :) keep up the great music
Beautiful!
Phenomenal song!
Beautiful
My husband is a big fan of your music.
Love their style.
Such a beautiful song
He truly is my strength!
Love it...........Thanks Janan
Randy and I really miss you guys love you Michael and lisa
Gisela and Randy Fuller
One of my favorite!!
stunning
and ears. and soul.
You're choosing a belief that feels good to you. People all over the world choose some variation of a belief in a powerful protector. They do this out of fear of truth.
As long as you're choosing your beliefs based on how they make you feel, you're just chasing your own fantasies. An honest search for truth doesn't consider how comfortable a belief is. Courage is choosing the beliefs that are supported by evidence, especially when they are not comforting.
This! Thank you.
Thank you.
Hahahaha. Graiskye. We love you. Yes, this is good music to keep listening to.
UNDEROATH!!
Thanks. Please be my Strength. I don't have it anymore.
a true edification to God through song
Christians never miss an opportunity to threaten those who disagree with them.
This made me cry 🥺
I just don't understand how people can set no standard of proof for the big questions. Faith is just gullibility.
I'm glad you responded. I once hated the idea of knowing or believing in God too. With all the hurt in my life I couldn't understand about this God either. Let me tell you what I've learned: He (God) knows me more than I know myself. He knows my heart to the core. He knows my suffering and pain. And in spite of who I am, He loves me. He loves you too. Doesnt it at least spark your curiosity to at least ask Him to show Himself to you? I think you're ready for this...give it a try! I did 13yrs ago
wow this music is so real.
its deep.
Beautiful Things, Such a solid album
@stthebesti I literally listened to that album for a month straight (nothing else just it) when I first got it.....Fantastic Album, great group
Amazing music
This song is simply beautiful. So honest and intimate. Very simple but it never loses my attention throughout the entire song. Awesome musicianship!
Anyone know what guitar Michael is playing? It's totally perfect for this song.. sounds a bit sharper than a usual classical guitar. Anyone know whether its the guitar or perhaps the type of strings he's using? I dig it :)
Wow sir, what was that jazzy progression just before the key change! Awesome
LOVE IT! Man, GOD really does move in that man! OMG!
