Lyrics: Sons Of Thunder
We are the new sons of thunder
We are uncrushable diamonds of light
We are the daughters of wonder
And when we leave the Earth
With a shower of sparks
We’ll meet in the sky
And we’ll walk among the stars
When we walk among the stars
The pleasure will be ours
And with young, unbroken hearts
We’ll walk among the stars
Cuz we belong
Above the heavens and beyond
Oh, we are the odd music-makers
We are the dreamers of unusual dreams
We all face the forces of nature
But bravely, we’ll take
Great leaps of faith
And then just like that
We’ll walk upon the waves
Cuz we belong
Out on the ocean and beyond
We’ll fly
We’ll fly
We’ll fly
In the twinkling of an eye
You and I
We’ll fly
We are the heirs of adventure
And we are explorers of wondrous new worlds
We are the gifted inventors
And even though we are strange
And exquisitely scarred
We won’t need to pretend to be anything we aren’t
When we walk among the stars
The pleasure will be ours
And with young, unbroken hearts
We’ll walk among the stars
Filled with the fierceness of tigers
We’re all too familiar with the fires of life
But we are resilient survivors
And one day, we’ll be free of nefarious schemes
Of cruel twists of fate and evil kings and queens
Cuz we belong
Between the sunrise and beyond
We’ll fly
In the twinkling of an eye
We’ll fly
We’ll fly
In the twinkling of an eye
You and I
We’ll fly
Sons of thunder
Feel the wonder
You were made to run
And not be faint
So take heart, wild one
For there is a God
Who loves you to death
No matter what you’ve done
So don’t lose hope
Cuz He will lead you home
Yeah we serve a God
Who loves us to deathttt
No matter what we’ve done
So don’t lose hope
Cuz He will lead us home
We’ll fly
We’ll fly
We’ll fly
In the twinkling of an eye
You and I
We’ll fly
When we walk among the stars
The pleasure will be ours
And with young, unbroken hearts
We’ll walk among the stars

sons of thunder like in the bible ;)
Praise be to the one who spoke the heavens and earth into being, Owl City praise songs hit different
"We'll FLYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY" is a great lyric
Agree 🫡
Exhaustive list of scriptural references that prove this is a Christian themed song even without the line about God:
Direct references:
• Sons of Thunder - this is Jesus’ nickname for James and John because of their zeal
• Walk on the waves - this is a reference to Jesus walking on water and John walking out to meet him
• we’ll meet in the sky - a reference to 1 Thessalonians 4, often understood to be a rapture passage, but certainly talking about the resurrection of Christians
• in the twinkling of an eye - a reference to 1 Corinthians 15 speaking about the resurrection of the saints (believers)
• run and not be faint - a reference to a wonderful chapter, Isaiah 40
@@cosmictreason2242I love your list! Thank you!
On a side note, though, there's actually 8 lines I found in the lyrics that talk directly about God. 😉
I love it as a lyric and I'm not sorry 😂😂😂
"In the twinkling of an EYE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"
FAVOURITE TRACK ON THE ALBUM 😩
I love that you unapologetically incorporate your faith into your music. As a fellow Christian, it’s a breath of fresh air
Based
Agreed!!!
Couldn't have said it better myself.
He really likes his rapture motif. You can see it in songs like Vanilla Twilight and Butterfly Wings from his earlier work
@@cosmictreason2242 Coz why can't the rapture be beautiful? LOL
Wow I remember when I wasn’t a believer I used to hear Adams Young music and now here I am few years later Jesus brought me out the darkness and now I walk in the light. It’s interesting because now I see God was calling me home even in your music.
amen! Stay encouraged 💜
Amen! That’s so beautiful!
It's awesome how God can use ANYTHING to reach ANYONE! Do his songs have more meaning to you now? Or was the meaning never lost when the start?
@@JoinUsInVR Yes his songs for me now have more meaning thanks to Jesus! I didn't even realize what was I listening back then in my old life.
Amen
Glad to see you haven't lost the faith over all the years you were gone.
I love the vibrancy in the energy of the track. I’m particularly fond of these powerful lyrics: “we are the odd music makers, we are the dreamers of unusual dreams, we all face the forces of nature, but bravely, we'll take great leaps of faith .. We are the heirs of adventure, and we are explorers of wondrous new worlds, we are the gifted inventors, and even though we are strange and exquisitely scarred, we won't need to pretend to be anything we aren't”. I love the message of the song about uniqueness, and bravery ✨
I made "we are the dreamers of unusual dreams" my twitter bio after hearing that part. So powerful!!
It's a very Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory vibe.
"We are the music makers, and we are the dreamers of dreams..."
Of course, originally a poem by Arthur O'Shaughnessy.
These lyrics resonate with me so deeply. I'm a queer christian in an environment where you can only ever be one or the other, and I felt understood when I heard "we don't need to pretend to be anything we aren't". Even now I'm fighting back tears as I get ready to go to church.
@@FunnyFany Well the message is meant to be within the bounds of that which is good. Good meaning that which God considers good, by the very nature of being "Queer" is sinful and thus evil. You cannot be Christian and Queer, that's a contradiction. You cannot pursue good by doing evil. In the same vein you cannot make God into what you want just to satisfy your needs, God is supposed to change our sinful natures through our journey in believing in him. The bible is very clear that one cannot be homosexual or crossdress or do anything that is considered queer; as these actions God deems sinful. I understand you aren't saying you are queer in a clear attempt to be evil on purpose or anything, as we all carry sin in different ways but we cannot allow sin as Christians to become who we are. Being Christian is about serving God, not about using God to serve ourselves. We don't change God to fit our view of him but rather we change ourselves to becomes that which God considers good. I hope my message doesn't seem aggressive or disrespectful, but I notice a ton of misunderstanding in regards to Christian faith like this often. I hope you do well on your journey to find and serve God.
I needed this today! Thank you Adam. I thank God for your existence. Don’t stop making music. Lots love.
"Filled with the fierceness of tigers" stuck out for me. 🐅
God bless you, Adam Young
Praise the Lord our God, the Father, the Son Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit!!!
Thanks for all the great music, Adam! May the Lord our God bless you and your family always.
You literally looked the industry in the face and said "NO! I choose Jesus!"
AMEN
Oh, beautiful! Praise God! All glory to our King.
God bless you, Adam. Your music has always brought me so much joy. And as I grow older, your music helps me strengthen my relationship with God.
There is one thing nobody could ever beat owl City on and it's the lyrics.
EVER HEAR OF AN ARTIST NAMED NF
First time hearing this song and I burst into tears when you mentioned the Lord Almighty. Thank you, Adam, for using your musical talents and abilities to glorify God.
Same here! ❤❤
Amen
This song touched my heart. God bless you and thank you!
Adam, don't ever quit making music, as there are billions of people who are blessed by your music. Also, by your music, you strengthen our fellow Christians.
Lots of love from India👏👏
This song, along with the entire album, are unapologetically Adam and I love that. He is making music that he wants to, and that means he can express himself in the most creative and inventive ways 💙
This song is full of hope. In difficult times and in trials and tribulation, this song hits home. God Bless, Owl City!
Lyrically, this song is just genius. Rhythmically, this song is going to be my favorite one to hear live in October. Overall, this is the song I keep returning to. It lifts me up and makes me feel happy!!!
"Oh, wе are the odd music makers
Wе are the dreamers of unusual dreams
We all face the forces of nature
But bravely, we'll take great leaps of faith"
Those lyrics hit hard!! I can relate to those lyrics!! Also, his drum work in this song is incredible!!
So beautiful!! Thank you, thank you, thank you! Thank you Jesus! I love You so much
I went to one of your concerts, recently, and I can't express to you the exhilarating feeling I got while listening to this song. I was so blessed to hear it, dance to it, and enjoy what a wonderful gift God has given you and your band! Thank you so much for creating music that is so unique and expressive, and also includes Christ. Please continue to serve the Lord where he leads you! You killed it at the ballroom! Much love from a fellow sister in Christ
Thank you for writing songs spreading God's Light and Love.
This truly feels like a song that would make me feel rebellious against anything I was told I couldn't do.
You can do anything with God❤💪
Yes!! People wierdly are discouraging against being the goodest you can be but Imma try anyway
@@starlegends3092 Do it!
Could tell it was a praise song by the name. The Sons of Thunder was the nickname that Jesus gave James and John the sons of zebedee, because of their intense zeal, and they together with Peter made up the inner circle of 3 who were with Jesus on the mountain and in the garden.
Wow, I never thought of Sons of Thunder being a nickname for James and John. I knew that's what Jesus called them, but your description helps me to remember that our Lord has sweet names for us.
WE ARE UNCRUSHABLE DIAMONDS OF LIGHT! ❤
OK you've done it to me again. I wasn't expecting what this did to me but when you hit the part about God loving us no matter what we've done... I was in tears uncontrollable gratitude for a loving Father in Heaven and all he has done and will do for us.
Even when we didn’t deserve it, he still showed his love for us.
@@bighand1530 That's so true.♥️
Crazy though. It’s so hard to believe that God would do that. He gave up His only Son to save us. We are imperfect. Jesus is perfect.❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
This song gives me lots of retrofuturism vibes, and I love it. It just sounds so cool.
i missed the early albums music of Owl City. This one bring me the nostalgia of those albums i love.
I definitely agree with you. The song took me back in time.
He really likes his rapture motif. You can see it in songs like Vanilla Twilight and Butterfly Wings from his earlier work
Favourite song on the album!! I’m not religious, but I love when Adam sings about his faith. He’s unapologetically him, and that’s awesome🤘🏻
Same here. I’m not religious at all but if singing about god makes Adam happy then that’s ok with me!
I'd wondered why this was one of my favorite bands...
Jesus loves yall for real 🙌
Im no religious too, but Im faithful to Jesus happy😊
The message of this song that he "loves us to death no matter what you've done" is important. I'm tired of being told I'm loved by Jesus/God, but that I need to change because "true" followers act a certain way. You know. "I live you, but..."
If a person truly loves me, they will love me even if I've done something they don't like/appreciate in the past. And if I've done something wrong to them, they'll be able to explain why my actions hurt. Telling someone that you are loved and yet demanding things "because that's just right" isn't unconditional love at all. So why would it be any different with a God?
There's something about Owl City's music that just no one else can reproduce
I really liked the old tape effect, the music, and the lyrics make it very enjoyable. Greetings Adam.
yeh...so don't lose your hope, just run.This a great song!
The song is so touching and giving so much positive vibes. Also when I was listening the song I felt the the same taste of fireflies.
I love all your music and love that y'all are Christian and have clean music
By grace ye shall be saved 🙏 ♥️💯
For some reason I love the background on this video
Thank you for you’re absolutely wonderful music. The Lord truly gave you an absolutely beautiful gift. You’re music has helped me through some of the hardest times of my life. The Lords using you in truly amazing ways. Can’t wait until your next album comes out!
Such a great song 💙
This is my favourite song in Coco Moon! You never fail to impress me, Adam!
I hate concerts but this album is making me want to go to your show!
I really love this song, the lyrics and music makes me want to keep dreaming and keep moving forward to achieve what I seek
Same here!
My new fav. Love owl city. My fav since fireflies ❤❤❤

OMG!!!! THAT'S THE BEST SONG I'VE EVER LOVED!!! THIS IS MY ALL TIME FAVORITE SONG!! This song should have an Official Music Video!
His voice is just soo freaking magical........................................

Favourite song on the album, maybe even the whole discography. It would be a blast if Adam plays this live on tour!
I love all of owl city's songs ❤
So, don't lose hope!
That's the message in a such a time like this!
I love his voice especially his high notes Damn I'm so jealous
I love this song, most of Adams songs! :)
So uplifting and inspiring, thank you sooo much!
And one day, we'll be free
Of nefarious schemes
Of cruel twists of fate
And evil kings and queens
I've been stuck on that verse for months now. It holds so much promise that this unbearable weight will someday be lifted. I repeat it to myself most days, almost like a mantra.
I always giggle feeling butterflies in my stomach every time I discover new songs from Adam I didn't know existed.
It’s nice to hear distorted guitars in 1 of your songs!
Owl city songs are so motivational❤🎵
Love your work ❤😍
Imagine the song playing on repeat while your family and friends on your wake. What a happy day ❤❤❤
I wish this song could be played at every. Single. Youth camp this year. The kids need to hear this wonderful message.
Love you, Owl City 😊 whether it was back when I was a kid listening to you on the radio to now when I'm a young adult, your creativity and faith are so inspiring and awesome! Thank you so much for sharing your gift with us!!
Blessings upon blessings sir Adam🥰 I'm so blessed and inspired by your music..So beautiful soul you are❤️❤️❤️Amen🙌
Awesome
Love this😊
Much love from Nigeria, Adam❤
I LOOOOOOOVE IT

Criminally underrated
OH MY GOOSH I CANT BELIEVE IT! HES BACK! I MISSED YOUR MUSIC!!
I love this song it’s beautiful Adam 😊
thank you so much Adam.. your music always helps me go through.. i really need this
My favourite song on the album most definitely!
I went to one of your concerts in October. It was so amazing and I almost died
I feel like you've managed to describe how I feel about my own imagination, who I am, and why I'm so drawn to your music. I feel different from everyone else, becouse I am different! I'm me. I am a daugther of wonder, explorer of new wonderous worlds, a dreamer of unusual dreams... and so are so many other people! and we'll fly... I'm me, I'm set apart from everyone else, but I'm not alone. even with others like me and people who are different, were never alone. even when it's just me, god is still here with me.
THANK YOU.
Venelopi.
