This is the last song I played for my mom before she went to heaven. She died the week of Easter in April 2022. I played it in her funeral. It brings tears of loss and hope. Thank you Jesus for your sacrifice to give us eternal life.
This was played at my stepdads funeral back in 2012. As well as What a Wonderful World by Louis Armstrong, which still makes me cry every time. I graduated high school a week ago and we sang What a Wonderful World, and I didn’t tell my mom so that she could be surprised. When we sang that song, it felt like he was there in some way. It also felt like everything was finally going to be okay. I went to a Christian school and I know that my stepdad would’ve been so proud of me.
Christianity is not a religion, it's a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.. The Savior, Redeemer, The Prince of peace, Wonderful counselor. God bless!!!
+Stacey Luster Anyone who does not follow Jesus Christ has no chance of coming to the Father apart from Jesus. That should do nothing to make us feel puffed up or that someone is better than us. Instead it should burden us to share the Gospel with them.
+Maridee Cordoba It easy to simplify Christianity to something that was a religion from the beginning and still is today. Ask yourselves, what beliefs and doctrines did the Apostles and disciples carry out after Christ died and was resurrected? There is a Church that knows exactly what they did in their actions because she still does them today. This is the Catholic Church, the Body of Christ, a sign to be contradicted through all ages. Nonetheless, this is a beautiful hymn to give glory to God.
+Mike 4 Life That is not fair to say ... It is more proper to say that because of Catholics, Protestants were given the simple and basic doctrines of the Blessed Trinity, Sacrament of Baptism and Marriage. It is a popular thing to be protestant among christans and unpopular to be Catholic. Never mind, that Catholics started the first universities in Europe, and promoted the use of liberal arts education such as philosophy, rhetoric and many other beautiful arts.
God is stronger then depression. God is stronger then anxiety. God is stronger then insomnia. God is stronger then cutting. God is stronger then suicidal thoughts. God is stronger then eating disorders. You WILL get through your battle. God is with you. Don't forget that. I'm still fighting my battle.. but I believe God will save me. He can save you too. Stay strong in this time of darkness. Never forget that God is right there by your side.
I think they grew up catholic and is probably born again, in the song of death cab for cutie he talks about catholic school and in the song made in heights he mentions God creating him
I've gone too long without realizing my faith. I've lied to others, lied to myself, stolen, I've had bad bad thoughts, I say bad things.... I took having true Christian grandparents for granted and ignored the things they stood for. For the first time tonight I'm going to open my bible and figure out where my life is going. I won't ever be perfect but anything is better than how I am now
I hope you are doing well cp, remember that God is the God of second chances, He will always forgive us no matter what we do, and He loves us unconditionally! :D I will pray for you tonight, and all others in this comment section
For a long time I was against religion, mostly Christianity. But even though I claimed I was against it, I secretly held something I can only refer to as reverence. It was a sort of subconscious admiration that I hid inside because I thought it clashed with my 'true' feelings. But after going through a 3-4 day spiritual crisis and discarding my mask of opposition I chose to embrace that which I felt was a part of me all along, and that is Jesus Christ. I accepted him as my Lord and Savior and as God my King and Creator and the amount of relief and sheer satisfaction I felt since then has been indescribable. Through the power of the Lord all can be accomplished. Owl City is the living embodiment of God's angels on Earth.
My grandmother passed away over last weekend. She was 87 years old but she loved this song so much even when the church sang it! For the longest time I doubted that there was a God. A few days before she passed away in the hospital I spoke with my aunt after her funeral service yesterday and she said that my grandmother knew for a FACT that she was going to heaven if she were to pass away from surgery complications. Before she even went into the hospital she told me "James, God is real and he performs miracles every day even when you don't realize it, it's a miracle that I've been alive to see you from when you were born up until you became an adult" After she passed away I felt this since of comfort knowing she's in heaven watching over me right now. I'm now a born again christian. This song always makes me think of her even more now, this was one of her favorite songs out there. It also makes me think of her because I know that I'll be in heaven one day and so will my family members. God IS real for sure and he watches over us every single day.
Yeah, God is really REAL and He's not just Real, He's ALIVE. GOD'S NOT DEAD. and yes! God really loves everyone of us. Continue praising the Lord. Amen
+Magnolia State Elevators I send my condolences for the recent loss of your dear grandmother. My future brother in law has this song on his playlist. How beautiful this song is indeed. Thank you Magnolia and Shawn for sharing. I miss him so much right now, yesterday, today and will forever...Just a couple months ago my dear friend, brother of my soulmate, gentle old soul and one of the most artistict, self educated and more knowledgable than his short years lived, has gone home. I feel it was just an accident and why can;t he heal now to be here when his little brother, my beautiful lover needs him the most. Their dad went home last November. Mom was forced out of the house and to another state, still in mourning for her love. Why did God need HIM too now? He was too young, wise and full of ideas. His brother is breathing but not alive right now. I loved this man since we were children. He has been so hurt in so many ways and trust has been so damaged that my faithful and loyal heart has broken too much for his pain. God please give us both more strength to survive. We have so much to live for and deserve together. Please pray for me, my husband to be and our dear beloved brother. as my faith right now is a little lost and confused. I pray for your family and Grandmother above. # TrustFaithLoveHopeFamilyStrengthForeverMyLovePatLiz
The best thing I’ve ever discovered is Owl City singing Christian worship. Such a blessing! Praying for everyone during this tough time. Together we will make it! Philippians 4:13 ✝️💙💫
Just discovered this. Didnt know they are Christian. 10 years Ive been missing out. I remember when owl city became famous everyone made fun of those who listened to owl city. I admit i was one of them. Little did I know that Satan was orchestrating this.
@@junkerjorg6310 i knew since i was a teen always loved owl city~ we have to keep declaring and decreeing in prayer that people eyes will be open to the devil thats orchestrating these things, thats why im trying to do everyday. also if you would like joseph prince is very eye opening with the true gospel of grace this is where i learned to pray better and have a better relationship with the Lord~ but yeah sending love and virtual hugs to all who need it and if you reading this may God Bless you and your loved ones~^^❤🔥
"In Christ Alone" In Christ alone my hope is found, He is my light, my strength, my song; this Cornerstone, this solid Ground, firm through the fiercest drought and storm. What heights of love, what depths of peace, when fears are stilled, when strivings cease! My Comforter, my All in All, here in the love of Christ I stand. There in the ground His body lay Light of the world by darkness slain: Then bursting forth in glorious Day Up from the grave he rose again! And as He stands in victory Sin's curse has lost its grip on me, For I am His and He is mine - Bought with the precious blood of Christ. No guilt in life, no fear in death, This is the power of Christ in me; From life's first cry to final breath. Jesus commands my destiny. No power of hell, no scheme of man, Can ever pluck me from His hand; Till He returns or calls me home, Here in the power of Christ I'll stand. Till He returns or calls me home, Here in the power of Christ I'll stand. Here in the power of Christ I'll stand.
I remember two years ago listening to this and crying. I begged God to take me every night. as of right now I'm working things out with myself and mentally God helps me feel like I can make it. for anyone who is struggling, you're gonna make it. I know words don't mean much to some people but trust me it's worth it and it's gonna get easier to deal with.
hockeyguydude25, by faith alone in Christ alone, by grace alone, it’s not always our situations that changes, but our attitudes in how we go into our situations, God always has the solutions, 1st solution is our separation from Him, if I can use the illustration, if a young person gets shot, bullet still inside, the young person just wants to stop hurting (bleeding) the Surgeon (God) understands getting the bullet out is more important, our eternal relationship with Him is more important than anything temporary in this life, the split second we take our last breath, we are ushered into eternity,
@@hockeyguydude50 , I hope things are getting better for you. Sometimes life can be so difficult. Just put one foot ahead of the other, and keep moving forward. There is something greater than us, and it loves us. When the burden of life is too heavy to carry, you can give it to God. God will walk beside you, and carry the pain for you. Let go and trust, and may your life get better every day.
I used to be there. If you wanna dm me on Instagram @jacob_712 Something God promises is that he will NEVER leave you. You are one of his children. A good father never leaves their children for death. Remember God's love and to be in a relationship with him. You can tell him ANYTHING, whether you are dangling off a 100 foot cliff, or walking in the park. He understands. He loves you.
Christina Grimmie was much inspired by this song, especially this version by Owl City. She always believed in Christ and her faith was an unmovable mountain! It's so sad that she lost her life after being shot at her own concert but now she is standing firm with Christ!
10 years ago my Nepalese Buddhist uni friend introduced me to this song & version as an Owl City fan. As God would have it, I was there to introduce him to the HERO and subject of this powerful song and he gave his life to Christ.🙏❤🙌
Jesus is the closest thing to a true friend & immovable relationship I've ever had. Many say He's a myth but if u ever asked Him into ur heart in a sincere request you know that's not true. He's more than a religion. He'll be there when all mankind leaves u behind & when the wisest man says uve no hope, God will make a way out no matter how impossible it seems.
In Christ alone my hope is found He is my light, my strength, my song This Cornerstone, this solid ground Firm through the fiercest drought and storm What heights of love, what depths of peace When fears are stilled, when strivings cease My Comforter, my All in All Here in the love of Christ I stand There in the ground His body lay Light of the world by darkness slain Then bursting forth in glorious Day Up from the grave He rose again And as He stands in victory Sin's curse has lost its grip on me For I am His and He is mine Bought with the precious blood of Christ No guilt in life, no fear in death This is the power of Christ in me From life's first cry to final breath Jesus commands my destiny No power of hell, no scheme of man Can ever pluck me from His hand Till He returns or calls me home Here in the power of Christ I'll stand Till He returns or calls me home Here in the power of Christ I'll stand Here in the power of Christ I'll stand
I can't put into words how happy I am to see a successful secular artist display his Faith openly without regard for how it may affect his sales. I pray that God blesses Adam and uses his music to touch the lives of people that may not have heard about Christ otherwise.
***** he is both a secular artist and a Christian artist, which is great because his secular music has none of the nasty sex lyrics or typical mainstream lyrics. I love his music cuz its clean and a good break from all the other junk out there
I wouldn't really call myself a child of God... but lately I've been miserable with life. I was on my phone trying to look up songs that are not Christian like three days grace, Hollywood undead, etc.. and i saw this song on my "recommended suggestions" i didn't want to click on it knowing the song will be talking about God, but i did out of curiosity because i heard of this "peace" most of my Christian relatives were telling me about. And i must say, it did gave me peace rather than sadness. I spent like 10 minutes crying, but they were happy tears, rather than sad tears... so thank you for brightening up my day who ever posted the song or made it.. :-)
I was going through a miserable time in life and just cried out to God one day saying "God please come into my life and transform me, I want to be happy, I accept Jesus as my lord and savior, please forgive me of my sins, please come into my heart and fill me with the Holy Spirit" from that moment on, I can't describe to you the overwhelming feeling peace I've felt in my life. I didn't think it was possible to feel this good. I started praying more and talking to God like a normal person and listening to some Amazing songs like this. And a couple days later while was praying one night, I felt the power of the Holy Spirit inside me. It was like an instense warmth that flowed throughout my whole body. And that was the moment of reassurance I needed. "Draw near to God and he will draw near to you" "seek and you shall find" it's one thing for many to say they believe in God and another to experience his presence and love. Just thought I'd share my experience with you :)
I just came back from a funeral and this was one of the hymns we sang. He was twenty eight years old, had a wife and a family, including two younger sisters and he took his own life. If anyone reading this is suffering from depression and contemplating harming themselves or taking their own life. Please get help and don't let those dark thoughts take over.
@@michaelcraven2554 Yep, it's a plandemic. Satan is the father of lies. Many people have been deceived. It's sad to see. I hope more people will come to know the truth soon. May God bless you!
+Lauren Elizabeth I know, many celebrities start out Christian, and abandon their faith once they reach a level that they can influence youth (sounds a little sketchy, but I digress). The only huge performer I know is still strong in their faith is Carrie Underwood. Feel free to correct and or expand on that.
+Unix One Are you a Christian Unix? If so, it is important for ourselves to improve our faith and stay strong with it and not to judge others as the Bible states that everyone will receive judgement from God. Looking at one person, makes them no better and no less than ourselves. Those who look to celebrities for inspiration, are they not idolising? Once again, this is human nature in pointing fingers. Stay strong whether you are Christian or not :) xxx
When I hear this song, my pain from sucidal depression become softer. My hope is Jesus care not only me but also all people who struggle with illness, pain, fear, loneliness. Glory to God.
Have you ever accepted Jesus into your heart? Jesus came into my heart and he made my depression better! And I believe He loves me more than I could ever know
Be well and at peace. I pray you find rest and renewal in this new (less crazy) year. Please get professional certainty your problem is not psychiatric. The brain is an organ and can malfunction like any other. "May the Peace of God guard your heart and mind in Christ Jesus our Lord."
And Jesus came and said to them, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.” Matthew 28:18-20 Happy Easter people! He has risen!
I hate to be a prick, but it's actually just Adam. Of course, you posted this 2 months ago, so maybe you've figured it out already, but if you didn't, I'm just letting you know. :)
Jesus is my strength. I may not be religious that is going to church or attending worship services, God knows i worship him and he is with me always. Lord please strengthen my faith especially in this cruel world.
Good Prayer, Flex. I only lovingly ask you to consider that Jesus says numerous times that he came for his "bride" (the church). He tells us to love Him BY loving one another. It's very admirable to worship him when you are alone. But it was VERY clear in scripture that He desired us to be together loving and serving one another on a regular basis. I only say this to ask you to consider deepening your faith by finding other believers to fellowship with since it is SUCH a huge part of God's design for us. I have had the thought, "I love Jesus but not the church" many times...but then it occurred to me that it's like someone saying, "I like you but not your wife." If someone didn't like my wife then we would have an issue. Just some thoughts, dear brother. No judgment on you...only thoughts for you to consider. Blessings, Nick
You must be born again I encourage everyone to consider whether they have been. It is nothing you can do yourself. It is a supernatural miracle of grace through faith
Flex M I can definitely relate to not wanting to attend church, but I gently encourage you to consider doing so. Not like I’ve been very good at going lately, lol. But, church is an extremely important part of the Christian walk. The act of going, and the building itself, are not the point. The point is meeting with fellow believers in Christ. That is the church. We are the church.
It came out in 2010, I've been a fan since about 2008 when i heard them on a Seattle indie station before they hit the big time, and I didnt find this song until almost 2018. I cant believe this song isnt famous :O
You should keep a lookout for the person who's handle is "Jesus Christ" (or close to that) and is not remotely Christian, but somehow got a verified acct. from UA-cam.
I can feel this. For someone that had not walked with God for a long time. It has been years upon years. I played this song and I feel the warmth. He is still here after all this time. Thank you God.
The fact that you want Him is proof that He hasn't given up in you. The desire for God comes from God Himself. I went through the same thing, my friend. Read James 1:2 It says that we are BLESSED when we go through trials. Jesus loves you and longs to lavish all love on you. Don't give up. I wanted to as well, but God led me to James 1:2 and His Son gives me all the hope I could ever have. Satan will try to deceive you and tell you God doesn't want you, but that's a lie. He loves you so much, and He knows you desire Him. No matter how hard it is, look to Jesus in faith. Life may have trials but the day He calls us home will be the day every tear is wiped away. Pray to Him and grow closer to Jesus. He will NEVER reject those who want His forgiveness. That's a promise.
Never give up my friend, this life is tough and full of temptation but he is there when you need him, he fills my heart with love and happiness, you'll never have nothing to fear with Christ in your life
In Christ alone my hope is found; He is my light, my strength, my song; This cornerstone, this solid ground, Firm through the fiercest drought and storm. What heights of love, what depths of peace, When fears are stilled, when strivings cease! My comforter, my all in all- Here in the love of Christ I stand. In Christ alone, Who took on flesh, Fullness of God in helpless babe! This gift of love and righteousness, Scorned by the ones He came to save. Till on that cross as Jesus died, The wrath of God was satisfied; For ev'ry sin on Him was laid- Here in the death of Christ I live. There in the ground His body lay, Light of the world by darkness slain; Then bursting forth in glorious day, Up from the grave He rose again! And as He stands in victory, Sin's curse has lost its grip on me; For I am His and He is mine- Bought with the precious blood of Christ. No guilt in life, no fear in death- This is the pow'r of Christ in me; From life's first cry to final breath, Jesus commands my destiny. No pow'r of hell, no scheme of man, Can ever pluck me from His hand; Till He returns or calls me home- Here in the pow'r of Christ I'll stand.
"No power of hell No scheme of man Can ever pluck me from his hand Til he returns Or calls me home Here in the power of Christ I'll stand." This song gives me so much peace. I love singing it, but I can never make it through without tears of happiness. :')
“Then bursting forth in glorious day up from the grave he rose again” this is such a powerful message!!! I accepted Christ 4 years ago and it hasn’t been until this year that I began growing in faith. I know many of you are probably like this too and gosh, we all need to pray for others to grow. Others to share. It is such a big part of our growth to read the Bible and pray!!! You will get better!!! ❤️❤️❤️
“Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you or forsake you” (Deuteronomy 31:6). We're in this together. Together with CHRIST. We'll survive. We'll heal. We'll have peace. Cause in the power of Christ we stand. Stay safe everyone, God bless youuu
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. John 3:16
We have Victory even when we are in biggest trouble. It is time to believe like the first christians. Not lose hope when all is against us. We won't make it without.
Thank you for this I needed to read these exact words right now! From 7 months back God throws a touchdown perfect prayer into 2021 straight for my heart and mind ty JC &HS hallelujah
2:50 are my fav lyrics. There are only two choices for the Christian, and they're both glorious. Either we go to him, or he comes to us, either he returns or calls us home for dinner, like children playing in the street. Beautiful song.
I was in depression 1 year ago,Today I have a future all by God's love and grace. Our God is great.He knows what we are going through, His grace is enough for us to come out victory in any situation.
God delivered me from pornography and sexual addiction. Tomorrow I've been married 8 months and pure, free from porm for 11 months. Our God truly is capable of anything. This song is so beautiful and it's about how in Jesus alone is our strength and salvation. God bless you all.
This song calms me down, and not because I'm a Christian. It gives me peace. Deep inside. Owl City's voice just makes it more powerful. Wow. Just a big wow.
It seems Owl city is not as corrupted as other huge artists. I'm glad cuz I used to listen to his songs. God bless him. God bless you reader. All glory to God. 🙏
It's so interesting to come down into the comments and see everyone's beliefs and see bearly anyone arguing and I'm really thankful for that so maybe there's a chance society is actually become acceptable.
I am so grateful for the eternal mercy of our Lord's atonement. Because of Him, my sins are forgiven; I owe Him everything. Christ is MY Savior now and always.
Same! I never force my beliefs on anyone, but somewhere deep inside I'm hoping they'll covert soon enough just because I don't want them to go to hell. It's going to be too late to change their minds once they're dead and that's bothering me a lot.
Well God does tell us to go and share Him with the world so maybe you can start in your neighborhood, in your job/school. Invite a friend and pray and you never know God works in wonderful ways :)
ebony.avi It only makes them run. I'm not going to force pray with them, but hopefully set an example that they'll get captivated by and will themselves decide they want to know more.
ZosiaSamosiaOo Use the law in the word as a mirror for them to see the error of their ways. W e are not supposed to judge but we are to share the love and word of God with them. The key part of this is telling them the Good News of our redemption of sin through Jesus Christ. The Holy Spirit is what will work in their lives and lead them to Christ. But we have to do our part as we are commanded through the Great Commission.
Andrew N. If I came at them with these exact words I'd be left to be my own friend forevermore, lol... I like to speak in non-Bible-ish words and throw in the idea of God and relief that comes from believing as well as the picture of two sides of eternity whenever there's an opportunity for it, but I know that taking it slightly too far just once could ruin any chances of success in the future. It's usually the people who represent religion and Church (religious freaks, people who live double lives of a devoted Christian and a criminal / deviant / abuser etc., corrupt, pedophile and baby making priests who are a plague in my country) that make the doubting and the looking decide to turn away from God in the first place. I want them to know we can be just like them, laid back and down to earth, still enjoy life despite the limitations and just let them know in between the lines that they might wanna reconsider the idea of God. Let's just not shove it down their throats or else our case is lost for good.

I love you Jesus. Without you i would probably not be alive today, you have helped me through all these bad days. thanks for being there for me when no one else was. Amen.
Its good to see that so many people here are Christian and that you support Adam, I support him too! I was looking for music to perk me up. When I saw this I was like, "Oh no... there's gonna be lots of flaming!" But nope. The music and his voice is amazing. I'm very happy and content, thanks everybody, thanks Adam for making my day complete.
I myself am a Christian and a fan of Owl City. I like both his secular and christian songs. I feel how hard it must be for artists that do both christian and secular music, for they usualy gain more popularity on secular music they produce and some hate on christian music that they produce, for they have initially attracted non-christians and maybe even atheists. Sadly some artists have stopped making christian music in order to gain a much larger audience. i.e Katy Perry, for they become more intrested what the world thinks and wants. we now live in a world in which we crave to please man instead of GOD. Many of us are fooled to think that being christian is boring, but it is the best thing anyone can be, for we become citizens of heaven! :) I don't want to pressure anyone, but this is how I feel!
Been looking at this guy since day one. He's become so popular now which is good for Adam. Sometimes though you just gotta find that balance. And it's better as an artist to be real with your fans than fake.
😍😍one of my favorite worship songs paired with such a beautiful voice and a unique spin. Thank you for using your gift to His glory! 🙌🙏👑 Christ is King!
My father played this song to me growing up. He is a man of god and I denounced it for so many years. As Christ commanded my destiny, he saved me in November of 2022. This song will always bring joyful tears to my eyes. Praise you Lord for all that you have done!!
You speak wisely my friend. Religion is not something worthy to hold onto. It is always about the relationship with God. Well said, Caden! Following religion is basically following some guidelines placed down. Once you find God and build relationship with Him, you will know what true genuine love is. =) God bless!
+Tony Tran Don't thank me one of my good friends said this while teaching me and some friends the standards of living strongly in Christ. I found it to be truly important and saw this as a good opportunity to share this with others. I'm glad though that you liked it so much have great day man! :-)
I go to school every weekday. And every day there are kids, teachers, and events that lead me away from God. School is anti-God and I try to defend him, but there are too many people to fight (argue) against. I come home, and listen to this song. This song is sent right down from heaven, and into his mouth. This song in the inspiration behind my fight for God. Every day I will fight for him, at school, when I get a job, or at home. This song, is amazing! And I can't express that enough!
school is not good, quit school now. You were meant to chase your dream today NOT being in a place where you have to do things you have no passion for and where hope is placed on a piece of paper or certificate they give. May Lord Jesus Christ bless you forever :)
@@parinazaz4044 Nothing wrong for a young guy to doubt God.... It will bring him to more investigation. Ultimately, the doubt will lead him to a well-considered choice. God understands.....and will not leave this young guy till he is ready to accept God wholeheartedly.
@@Mindblowingmagic12 People who never doubt God are mostly the lukewarm Christians. Revelation 3:16 They never doubt....but they also never study or investigate God. Dont you think God understands the fact that young people have doubts? God is complex.....and He wants us to get to know Him...to see through the complexity. So how do we do that?....by doubting, asking questions, investigate, study, doubting, asking questions, etc. And during this proces of spiritual growth, God is smiling and will not leave your side. Gods ultimate goal is for you to overcome your doubt and to come to a well-considered choice for Him. Be blessed in the process.....you are on the right path!
Enchanting voice, gorgeous lyrics, just a real spiritual event to listen to this young man. What amazing grace his lyrics and music instills in the listener. God be with you, son, and please keep doing this beautiful work.
WELL MY MOM IS GONE TO GLORY I LOVE HER SOO MUCH I JUST WANT TO SAY THANKS TO OWL CITY FOR YOUR COMFORTING PRAISE TO OUR FATHER GOD MAY THE GOD OF ABRAM,ISSAC,AND JACOB FOREVER USE YOU AND LEAD AND GUIDE YOU INTO ALL TRUTH AND UNDERSTANDING I'M CRYING NOW BUT THERE ARE TEARS OF JOY BECAUSE OF YOUR MUSIC THANK YOU BROTHER'S IN CHRIST
Don't take your eyes off of him. He took her because she was ready, now she is watching over you right next to The Lord Jesus and God Almighty. I bet she's crying for you right now. We're all here for you. I'm not that socially skilled but if you need someone to talk it out with your brother in Christ is here. May you have Good fortune in the future. God Bless! =)
Donna Mitchell Don't mention it sister we're all brother and sisters in Christ so why's it such a surprise that we'd help out our own family? Also remember have a blessed day
Mothers are never really gone. Our Dear Lord gives them wings to comfort and protect the people that they love. Every blessing to you and yours Donna Stinson!
One of the best Christians songs i've ever hear. Adam should sing christian songs more often but not in a rock and roll kind of way like galaxies. I'm not saying that galaxies is a bad song but its too loud and not enough graces. Great song Adam, great song.
I was listening to him when I was 14 and smoking lettuce. Ive become a strong christian since then and to see that he turned to christ, is a beautiful blessing to see. Ive always loved his music, his positive lyrics, and now I know I will see him in heaven! Amazing!

This is the last song I played for my mom before she went to heaven. She died the week of Easter in April 2022. I played it in her funeral. It brings tears of loss and hope. Thank you Jesus for your sacrifice to give us eternal life.
So sorry for this great loss you have faced. May God comfort you!
Sorry for your loss. Hope you are doing okay.
Beautiful song
Sorry for your lost, I believe that Jesus will look after your mom in heaven.
This was played at my stepdads funeral back in 2012. As well as What a Wonderful World by Louis Armstrong, which still makes me cry every time. I graduated high school a week ago and we sang What a Wonderful World, and I didn’t tell my mom so that she could be surprised. When we sang that song, it felt like he was there in some way. It also felt like everything was finally going to be okay. I went to a Christian school and I know that my stepdad would’ve been so proud of me.
Christianity is not a religion, it's a personal relationship with Jesus Christ.. The Savior, Redeemer, The Prince of peace, Wonderful counselor. God bless!!!
+Stacey Luster Anyone who does not follow Jesus Christ has no chance of coming to the Father apart from Jesus. That should do nothing to make us feel puffed up or that someone is better than us. Instead it should burden us to share the Gospel with them.
AMEN BROTHER !!
+Maridee Cordoba It easy to simplify Christianity to something that was a religion from the beginning and still is today. Ask yourselves, what beliefs and doctrines did the Apostles and disciples carry out after Christ died and was resurrected? There is a Church that knows exactly what they did in their actions because she still does them today. This is the Catholic Church, the Body of Christ, a sign to be contradicted through all ages. Nonetheless, this is a beautiful hymn to give glory to God.
***** Catholics are delusional, unlike Protestants. But faithful nonetheless.
+Mike 4 Life That is not fair to say ... It is more proper to say that because of Catholics, Protestants were given the simple and basic doctrines of the Blessed Trinity, Sacrament of Baptism and Marriage. It is a popular thing to be protestant among christans and unpopular to be Catholic. Never mind, that Catholics started the first universities in Europe, and promoted the use of liberal arts education such as philosophy, rhetoric and many other beautiful arts.
God is stronger then depression.
God is stronger then anxiety.
God is stronger then insomnia.
God is stronger then cutting.
God is stronger then suicidal thoughts.
God is stronger then eating disorders.
You WILL get through your battle. God is with you. Don't forget that. I'm still fighting my battle.. but I believe God will save me. He can save you too. Stay strong in this time of darkness. Never forget that God is right there by your side.
"The giant in front of you is never bigger than the God behind you."
I believe in you.
If Satan reminds of your past remind him of his future
It is well.
Just said a little prayer for you
I hate to be that guy and I 100% agree with you but....

I should be dead today... God has saved and blessed me in so many ways... God is good.
Amen. 😊
in Christian alone
amen brother
With God's almighty power. ❤️
What happened? I'm glad you're okay.
I didnt know he is a christian.. but I noticed that all his songs are bright and special.. God bless him
same same. this makes me so happy I grew up listening to him but never knew he was Christian
I think they grew up catholic and is probably born again, in the song of death cab for cutie he talks about catholic school and in the song made in heights he mentions God creating him
Yes, your are right, my kids love his song about going to the dentist. 😊
the album with "alligator sky" you should read at his own writting at the bottom line.. he said "thanks to Jesus Christ" 😊
Actually, he has an acknowledgement to Christ in all of his album pamphlets.
I've gone too long without realizing my faith. I've lied to others, lied to myself, stolen, I've had bad bad thoughts, I say bad things.... I took having true Christian grandparents for granted and ignored the things they stood for. For the first time tonight I'm going to open my bible and figure out where my life is going. I won't ever be perfect but anything is better than how I am now
mattelnie dont worry god will forgive u
stay with your spirit and hold it until the day Jesus returns, love the holy spirit and all of the Lord's creation
This encouraged me...I hope you are doing well in your journey, God Be with you always.
I hope you are doing well cp, remember that God is the God of second chances, He will always forgive us no matter what we do, and He loves us unconditionally! :D I will pray for you tonight, and all others in this comment section
@mn you are amazing 😊
Anyone here in 2020? During this pandemic, I'm relying in Christ alone for safety
Amen!
Me! have a beautiful day.
Glory be to God!!!🙏
Absolutely. I'm still holding on to hope that Adam releases a worship album too!
Amen
For a long time I was against religion, mostly Christianity. But even though I claimed I was against it, I secretly held something I can only refer to as reverence. It was a sort of subconscious admiration that I hid inside because I thought it clashed with my 'true' feelings. But after going through a 3-4 day spiritual crisis and discarding my mask of opposition I chose to embrace that which I felt was a part of me all along, and that is Jesus Christ. I accepted him as my Lord and Savior and as God my King and Creator and the amount of relief and sheer satisfaction I felt since then has been indescribable. Through the power of the Lord all can be accomplished. Owl City is the living embodiment of God's angels on Earth.
Aww this is beautiful :)
+8bit_V4mp1r3 Really inspirational! This made my day, and I wish you the absolute best in life.
What a great testimony. Thank you for sharing that. God Bless!
+8bit_V4mp1r3 I'm so happy for you!!! :D

My grandmother passed away over last weekend. She was 87 years old but she loved this song so much even when the church sang it! For the longest time I doubted that there was a God. A few days before she passed away in the hospital I spoke with my aunt after her funeral service yesterday and she said that my grandmother knew for a FACT that she was going to heaven if she were to pass away from surgery complications. Before she even went into the hospital she told me "James, God is real and he performs miracles every day even when you don't realize it, it's a miracle that I've been alive to see you from when you were born up until you became an adult" After she passed away I felt this since of comfort knowing she's in heaven watching over me right now. I'm now a born again christian. This song always makes me think of her even more now, this was one of her favorite songs out there. It also makes me think of her because I know that I'll be in heaven one day and so will my family members. God IS real for sure and he watches over us every single day.
+Magnolia State Elevators this bought a tear to my eye... powerful message and story, be strong, and be faithful in Jesus
Yeah, God is really REAL and He's not just Real, He's ALIVE. GOD'S NOT DEAD. and yes! God really loves everyone of us. Continue praising the Lord. Amen
+Magnolia State Elevators He is real:) You're story is beautiful :) I wish that I knew your grandma, she seems amazing :)
+Magnolia State Elevators I send my condolences for the recent loss of your dear grandmother. My future brother in law has this song on his playlist. How beautiful this song is indeed. Thank you Magnolia and Shawn for sharing. I miss him so much right now, yesterday, today and will forever...Just a couple months ago my dear friend, brother of my soulmate, gentle old soul and one of the most artistict, self educated and more knowledgable than his short years lived, has gone home. I feel it was just an accident and why can;t he heal now to be here when his little brother, my beautiful lover needs him the most. Their dad went home last November. Mom was forced out of the house and to another state, still in mourning for her love. Why did God need HIM too now? He was too young, wise and full of ideas. His brother is breathing but not alive right now. I loved this man since we were children. He has been so hurt in so many ways and trust has been so damaged that my faithful and loyal heart has broken too much for his pain. God please give us both more strength to survive. We have so much to live for and deserve together. Please pray for me, my husband to be and our dear beloved brother. as my faith right now is a little lost and confused. I pray for your family and Grandmother above. # TrustFaithLoveHopeFamilyStrengthForeverMyLovePatLiz

The best thing I’ve ever discovered is Owl City singing Christian worship. Such a blessing! Praying for everyone during this tough time. Together we will make it! Philippians 4:13 ✝️💙💫
Kool Froot Amen
Just discovered this. Didnt know they are Christian. 10 years Ive been missing out. I remember when owl city became famous everyone made fun of those who listened to owl city. I admit i was one of them. Little did I know that Satan was orchestrating this.
Thanks for reminding me of Philippians 4:13❤️
@@junkerjorg6310 i knew since i was a teen always loved owl city~
we have to keep declaring and decreeing in prayer that people eyes will be open to the devil thats orchestrating these things, thats why im trying to do everyday. also if you would like joseph prince is very eye opening with the true gospel of grace this is where i learned to pray better and have a better relationship with the Lord~
but yeah sending love and virtual hugs to all who need it and if you reading this may God Bless you and your loved ones~^^❤🔥
How did you do this? I'd love to chat more. ❤
I'd love some advice from anyone who has been saved.
"In Christ Alone"
In Christ alone my hope is found,
He is my light, my strength, my song;
this Cornerstone, this solid Ground,
firm through the fiercest drought and storm.
What heights of love, what depths of peace,
when fears are stilled, when strivings cease!
My Comforter, my All in All,
here in the love of Christ I stand.
There in the ground His body lay
Light of the world by darkness slain:
Then bursting forth in glorious Day
Up from the grave he rose again!
And as He stands in victory
Sin's curse has lost its grip on me,
For I am His and He is mine -
Bought with the precious blood of Christ.
No guilt in life, no fear in death,
This is the power of Christ in me;
From life's first cry to final breath.
Jesus commands my destiny.
No power of hell, no scheme of man,
Can ever pluck me from His hand;
Till He returns or calls me home,
Here in the power of Christ I'll stand.
Till He returns or calls me home,
Here in the power of Christ I'll stand.
Here in the power of Christ I'll stand.
These lines showers the bliss of allmity
Thank you! This is what I was looking for!
Nice one !
jessica elfalianda thank you dear, for the lirics! Gbu
Beautiful song! Thanks!
I remember two years ago listening to this and crying.
I begged God to take me every night.
as of right now I'm working things out with myself and mentally God helps me feel like I can make it.
for anyone who is struggling, you're gonna make it. I know words don't mean much to some people but trust me it's worth it and it's gonna get easier to deal with.
😢
Same. How does it get better?
hockeyguydude25, by faith alone in Christ alone, by grace alone, it’s not always our situations that changes, but our attitudes in how we go into our situations, God always has the solutions, 1st solution is our separation from Him, if I can use the illustration, if a young person gets shot, bullet still inside, the young person just wants to stop hurting (bleeding) the Surgeon (God) understands getting the bullet out is more important, our eternal relationship with Him is more important than anything temporary in this life, the split second we take our last breath, we are ushered into eternity,
@@hockeyguydude50 , I hope things are getting better for you. Sometimes life can be so difficult. Just put one foot ahead of the other, and keep moving forward. There is something greater than us, and it loves us. When the burden of life is too heavy to carry, you can give it to God. God will walk beside you, and carry the pain for you. Let go and trust, and may your life get better every day.
I used to be there. If you wanna dm me on Instagram @jacob_712 Something God promises is that he will NEVER leave you. You are one of his children. A good father never leaves their children for death. Remember God's love and to be in a relationship with him. You can tell him ANYTHING, whether you are dangling off a 100 foot cliff, or walking in the park. He understands. He loves you.
“Til he returns, or calls me home, here in the power of Christ I’ll stand.”

Can't wait for my return to coming back home 😭😭
Yes. God bless. Been a Christian for 4 years now. Was a Scottish atheist all my life
I never knew Owl City is a Christian musician. What a pleasant song. God bless!
Christina Grimmie was much inspired by this song, especially this version by Owl City. She always believed in Christ and her faith was an unmovable mountain! It's so sad that she lost her life after being shot at her own concert but now she is standing firm with Christ!
I was about to post the same thing. God bless her and her family :(
She was just alive 2 days ago, now she's dead, God Bless Her
Heaven definitely gained a beautiful angel. May she rest in peace
I know. 😞 I'm just picturing her standing there with Him. #NoFearInDeath
+Ruth Haan I am not looking for a bible lecture. Please just let everyone mourn her in their own ways.
10 years ago my Nepalese Buddhist uni friend introduced me to this song & version as an Owl City fan. As God would have it, I was there to introduce him to the HERO and subject of this powerful song and he gave his life to Christ.🙏❤🙌
Praise God!!!
I praise God for the changes your friend chose. Because God chose to forgive and love him, and the rest of us
This puts a big smile on my face
OUR GOD IS AN AWESOME GOD. ❤
Jesus is the closest thing to a true friend & immovable relationship I've ever had. Many say He's a myth but if u ever asked Him into ur heart in a sincere request you know that's not true. He's more than a religion. He'll be there when all mankind leaves u behind & when the wisest man says uve no hope, God will make a way out no matter how impossible it seems.

I wouldn't really call myself a child of God... but lately I've been miserable with life. I was on my phone trying to look up songs that are not Christian like three days grace, Hollywood undead, etc.. and i saw this song on my "recommended suggestions" i didn't want to click on it knowing the song will be talking about God, but i did out of curiosity because i heard of this "peace" most of my Christian relatives were telling me about. And i must say, it did gave me peace rather than sadness. I spent like 10 minutes crying, but they were happy tears, rather than sad tears... so thank you for brightening up my day who ever posted the song or made it.. :-)
Random FangirlOwO
Owl city made it.
JoelRules76 posted it

+Jeremiah Choi Well, technically Keith Getty and Stuart Townend wrote it...
Veronica lol true dat...
I was going through a miserable time in life and just cried out to God one day saying "God please come into my life and transform me, I want to be happy, I accept Jesus as my lord and savior, please forgive me of my sins, please come into my heart and fill me with the Holy Spirit" from that moment on, I can't describe to you the overwhelming feeling peace I've felt in my life. I didn't think it was possible to feel this good. I started praying more and talking to God like a normal person and listening to some Amazing songs like this. And a couple days later while was praying one night, I felt the power of the Holy Spirit inside me. It was like an instense warmth that flowed throughout my whole body. And that was the moment of reassurance I needed. "Draw near to God and he will draw near to you" "seek and you shall find" it's one thing for many to say they believe in God and another to experience his presence and love. Just thought I'd share my experience with you :)
Beautiful testimony. Jesus is REAL and He loves you with an everlasting Love my dear friend.
Thank u Jesus for dying for me an freeing me from my sin

Discovered this song when I was 13 or 14, now I’m back at 22, God has been with me through every storm along the way and will continue to be there❤
I just came back from a funeral and this was one of the hymns we sang. He was twenty eight years old, had a wife and a family, including two younger sisters and he took his own life. If anyone reading this is suffering from depression and contemplating harming themselves or taking their own life. Please get help and don't let those dark thoughts take over.
Jesus can help you and all through anything. Have a blessed day!

+Lauren Elizabeth I know, many celebrities start out Christian, and abandon their faith once they reach a level that they can influence youth (sounds a little sketchy, but I digress). The only huge performer I know is still strong in their faith is Carrie Underwood. Feel free to correct and or expand on that.
+Unix One Are you a Christian Unix? If so, it is important for ourselves to improve our faith and stay strong with it and not to judge others as the Bible states that everyone will receive judgement from God. Looking at one person, makes them no better and no less than ourselves. Those who look to celebrities for inspiration, are they not idolising? Once again, this is human nature in pointing fingers. Stay strong whether you are Christian or not :) xxx

And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.”

Jesus is my strength. I may not be religious that is going to church or attending worship services, God knows i worship him and he is with me always. Lord please strengthen my faith especially in this cruel world.
Flex M he is always with you
Good Prayer, Flex. I only lovingly ask you to consider that Jesus says numerous times that he came for his "bride" (the church). He tells us to love Him BY loving one another. It's very admirable to worship him when you are alone. But it was VERY clear in scripture that He desired us to be together loving and serving one another on a regular basis. I only say this to ask you to consider deepening your faith by finding other believers to fellowship with since it is SUCH a huge part of God's design for us. I have had the thought, "I love Jesus but not the church" many times...but then it occurred to me that it's like someone saying, "I like you but not your wife." If someone didn't like my wife then we would have an issue. Just some thoughts, dear brother. No judgment on you...only thoughts for you to consider. Blessings, Nick
Flex M same🙏
You must be born again
I encourage everyone to consider whether they have been. It is nothing you can do yourself. It is a supernatural miracle of grace through faith
Flex M I can definitely relate to not wanting to attend church, but I gently encourage you to consider doing so. Not like I’ve been very good at going lately, lol. But, church is an extremely important part of the Christian walk. The act of going, and the building itself, are not the point. The point is meeting with fellow believers in Christ. That is the church. We are the church.
Happy Easter everyone!!! Rejoice for He has risen!! ^___^ Thank you Jesus Lord for the cross.

Been listening to Owl City since Youth Group 2004-2011. This reminds me of good times, good people, and a good God.
Even obi-wan knows what’s up with God.
Becca (a Youth Group leader at my church) introduced me.
God is always Good
I was leading a youth group fishing trip in 2004. I lost a finger, it sucked
You should keep a lookout for the person who's handle is "Jesus Christ" (or close to that) and is not remotely Christian, but somehow got a verified acct. from UA-cam.
I can feel this. For someone that had not walked with God for a long time. It has been years upon years. I played this song and I feel the warmth. He is still here after all this time. Thank you God.
I'm about to give up. Lord, you are my hope. Don't give up on me.
The fact that you want Him is proof that He hasn't given up in you. The desire for God comes from God Himself. I went through the same thing, my friend. Read James 1:2 It says that we are BLESSED when we go through trials. Jesus loves you and longs to lavish all love on you. Don't give up. I wanted to as well, but God led me to James 1:2 and His Son gives me all the hope I could ever have. Satan will try to deceive you and tell you God doesn't want you, but that's a lie. He loves you so much, and He knows you desire Him. No matter how hard it is, look to Jesus in faith. Life may have trials but the day He calls us home will be the day every tear is wiped away. Pray to Him and grow closer to Jesus. He will NEVER reject those who want His forgiveness. That's a promise.
+Sarah Cavaliere Thank you so much for your words!
+1988deef anytime. God loves you :) He never breaks His promises.
+Maxwell Jardine Thank you!
Never give up my friend, this life is tough and full of temptation but he is there when you need him, he fills my heart with love and happiness, you'll never have nothing to fear with Christ in your life
In Christ alone my hope is found;
He is my light, my strength, my song;
This cornerstone, this solid ground,
Firm through the fiercest drought and storm.
What heights of love, what depths of peace,
When fears are stilled, when strivings cease!
My comforter, my all in all-
Here in the love of Christ I stand.
In Christ alone, Who took on flesh,
Fullness of God in helpless babe!
This gift of love and righteousness,
Scorned by the ones He came to save.
Till on that cross as Jesus died,
The wrath of God was satisfied;
For ev'ry sin on Him was laid-
Here in the death of Christ I live.
There in the ground His body lay,
Light of the world by darkness slain;
Then bursting forth in glorious day,
Up from the grave He rose again!
And as He stands in victory,
Sin's curse has lost its grip on me;
For I am His and He is mine-
Bought with the precious blood of Christ.
No guilt in life, no fear in death-
This is the pow'r of Christ in me;
From life's first cry to final breath,
Jesus commands my destiny.
No pow'r of hell, no scheme of man,
Can ever pluck me from His hand;
Till He returns or calls me home-
Here in the pow'r of Christ I'll stand.
Thank you!
Wish the second verse wasn't omitted, 'tis my favorite!

Is anyone still here listening to owl city 2020!
Just getting ahead lol
I’ll be back in 2020 don’t worry
Very soon my bro
Yoooo
I’ll remember it.
Chris Heichel 2020? Proof of time travel???
Beautiful words, from a beautiful soul. Love this , can't stop playing it. Heard it for the first time at mass last Sunday.
“Then bursting forth in glorious day up from the grave he rose again” this is such a powerful message!!! I accepted Christ 4 years ago and it hasn’t been until this year that I began growing in faith. I know many of you are probably like this too and gosh, we all need to pray for others to grow. Others to share. It is such a big part of our growth to read the Bible and pray!!! You will get better!!! ❤️❤️❤️
Why do I like this, I'm not even a Christian... it must be the melody, ahh. You can feel the deep love he put into it.
oh well
beautiful song. Reminding me that no matter how bad it may seem, The Lord is soon coming,
nice to know that you know about Christ's coming too! :D
Isabel Smith
Yes
Amen

"No power of hell, no scheme of man can ever pluck me from his hand.
Till he returns or calls me home, here in the power of Christ I stand" ♡♡
No greater gratefulness do I have for this amazingness
I'm tearing up reading these wholesome comments.
I love me some wholesome comments 😂
God bless

Yow
We miss you so much Christina! We know how much this song means to you - you're with Jesus now.
Until we meet again💚
Who is she
+redtiger 82 Christina Grimmie, the UA-cam singer who was killed recently.
she did a cover of this song, it was one of her favourites
she fell from grace, so God sent her home early
“Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the LORD your God goes with you; he will never leave you or forsake you” (Deuteronomy 31:6).
We're in this together. Together with CHRIST. We'll survive. We'll heal. We'll have peace. Cause in the power of Christ we stand. Stay safe everyone, God bless youuu
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
John 3:16
We have Victory even when we are in biggest trouble. It is time to believe like the first christians. Not lose hope when all is against us. We won't make it without.
Prayer
Thank you for this I needed to read these exact words right now! From 7 months back God throws a touchdown perfect prayer into 2021 straight for my heart and mind ty JC &HS hallelujah
I love how he continues to stay so strong in his faith, even after becoming famous. Such a humble man and a beautiful soul.
Whoever trust in Lord will be safe.....proverbs-29: 25
Prov. 3:5&96 Trust in the Lord...
@Opurr then read John
@Opurr then read John
@Opurr LORD is Yahweh, and Jesus is Yahweh.
@@mathewsteven That is truth. Hallelujah ✝️✝️✝️
Other people sing it too fast. That's why I like Adam's version
THANK YOU. That's exactly the feeling I get every time I hear this song played. SLOW DOWN, it's so much better haha.
Exactly....calm and soothing
He sings every single word with love and meaning...you can feel that...
The Reason I Like It Is Because Of The Piano Blends So Well With The Vocals.
2:50 are my fav lyrics. There are only two choices for the Christian, and they're both glorious. Either we go to him, or he comes to us, either he returns or calls us home for dinner, like children playing in the street. Beautiful song.
Wow! Really great arrangement! 👐
I love you guys' music. This comment is underrated
@@wilsonchen4533 Indeed
Love you guys 🌼
God is my father and Jesus my best friend. ❤❤❤💫
It nice that I can finally comment my faith and not be judged by others.
@kristel jones Amen Brother, comment wherever you please it's not about others it's about you and God. Stand Strong.
@@pandacyy2276 I thought Christians were not supposed to judge
I was in depression 1 year ago,Today I have a future all by God's love and grace.
Our God is great.He knows what we are going through, His grace is enough for us to come out victory in any situation.
I always get so surprised when I go to listen to songs like this by him and no one is arguing, like wow it's a miracle
it's a sign of the message getting through his music :) it's awesome!
definitely
maybe because he sings it so beautiful?
God delivered me from pornography and sexual addiction. Tomorrow I've been married 8 months and pure, free from porm for 11 months. Our God truly is capable of anything. This song is so beautiful and it's about how in Jesus alone is our strength and salvation. God bless you all.
This song calms me down, and not because I'm a Christian.
It gives me peace. Deep inside.
Owl City's voice just makes it more powerful.
Wow. Just a big wow.
His voice has a special something to it
PixelNerd/HaloJumpman Its autotune, but its really good autotune.
TheVideoGamer I don't believe it's autotune, pretty sure he actually sounds like that.
Could be wrong though
***** I know, found out recently.
After I posted this comment xD
I forgot the lead singer's real name though.
***** Ah yes, thanks!
It seems Owl city is not as corrupted as other huge artists. I'm glad cuz I used to listen to his songs. God bless him. God bless you reader. All glory to God. 🙏
We could use more singers/bands like Owl City.
That's exactly why I love his music!❤ Glory to God alone🌟
It's so interesting to come down into the comments and see everyone's beliefs and see bearly anyone arguing and I'm really thankful for that so maybe there's a chance society is actually become acceptable.
Only God can do that, these comments are of love, power, redemption, reconciliation, truth, are words of God
Really good cover Adam! I wish he would make a full Christian Album!
JCB ShortFilms AMEN!
i remember when i first found this i got so excited
Amen
Thank you! Awesome song!
he really should! or atleast make an album with the four other christian songs he does
I love God so much💖
Linda Gatwiri AMEN
Same! God bless u!
This Message for Owl city, I hope you start doing more songs for us because your songs changed our life for the better.
Amen
I am so grateful for the eternal mercy of our Lord's atonement. Because of Him, my sins are forgiven; I owe Him everything. Christ is MY Savior now and always.
I don't judge people for their beliefs, I just feel bad that they might die without knowing Christ as their Savior.
Same! I never force my beliefs on anyone, but somewhere deep inside I'm hoping they'll covert soon enough just because I don't want them to go to hell. It's going to be too late to change their minds once they're dead and that's bothering me a lot.
Well God does tell us to go and share Him with the world so maybe you can start in your neighborhood, in your job/school. Invite a friend and pray and you never know God works in wonderful ways :)
ebony.avi It only makes them run. I'm not going to force pray with them, but hopefully set an example that they'll get captivated by and will themselves decide they want to know more.
ZosiaSamosiaOo Use the law in the word as a mirror for them to see the error of their ways. W e are not supposed to judge but we are to share the love and word of God with them. The key part of this is telling them the Good News of our redemption of sin through Jesus Christ. The Holy Spirit is what will work in their lives and lead them to Christ. But we have to do our part as we are commanded through the Great Commission.
Andrew N. If I came at them with these exact words I'd be left to be my own friend forevermore, lol... I like to speak in non-Bible-ish words and throw in the idea of God and relief that comes from believing as well as the picture of two sides of eternity whenever there's an opportunity for it, but I know that taking it slightly too far just once could ruin any chances of success in the future. It's usually the people who represent religion and Church (religious freaks, people who live double lives of a devoted Christian and a criminal / deviant / abuser etc., corrupt, pedophile and baby making priests who are a plague in my country) that make the doubting and the looking decide to turn away from God in the first place. I want them to know we can be just like them, laid back and down to earth, still enjoy life despite the limitations and just let them know in between the lines that they might wanna reconsider the idea of God. Let's just not shove it down their throats or else our case is lost for good.
“In Christ alone my hope is found;
He is my light, my strength, my song;
This cornerstone, this solid ground,
Firm through the fiercest drought and storm.
What heights of love, what depths of peace,
When fears are stilled, when strivings cease!
My comforter, my all in all-
Here in the love of Christ I stand.
There in the ground His body lay,
Light of the world by darkness slain;
Then bursting forth in glorious day,
Up from the grave He rose again!
And as He stands in victory,
Sin’s curse has lost its grip on me;
For I am His and He is mine-
Bought with the precious blood of Christ.
No guilt in life, no fear in death-
This is the pow’r of Christ in me;
From life’s first cry to final breath,
Jesus commands my destiny.
No pow’r of hell, no scheme of man,
Can ever pluck me from His hand;
Till He returns or calls me home-
Here in the pow’r of Christ I’ll stand.”
Thank you!
I love you Jesus. Without you i would probably not be alive today, you have helped me through all these bad days. thanks for being there for me when no one else was. Amen.
Amen. Love this. Praise Jesus! I didn't know you were a Christian! That's great
Well that would explain why Owl City never got much recognition. Mainstream media always had a strong bias against Christianity
sadly God bless brother.
Fireflies has 391 MILLION views. Plenty of recognition
@@geckogeico2212 well yeah but when we look at taylor swift, ariana grande, shawn mendez and so on, the gap is pretty big
In the last few years, Christian artists have had some of the biggest hits in the industry. NF and Twenty One Pilots come to mind.
Well Christianity has a strong bias against certain minority groups so I guess we’ll call it even
Its good to see that so many people here are Christian and that you support Adam, I support him too! I was looking for music to perk me up. When I saw this I was like, "Oh no... there's gonna be lots of flaming!" But nope. The music and his voice is amazing. I'm very happy and content, thanks everybody, thanks Adam for making my day complete.
fuck jesus
loosekarrott
Jesus loves you Loose Karrott :D Just sayin!
Songs about Christ will always make me smile.
He advocated for slavery. So, I mean.
@@lepapercastle be specific when you mean he and when and the context than just saying random stuff with no context
@@lepapercastleHe frees people from slavery of sin.
I myself am a Christian and a fan of Owl City. I like both his secular and christian songs. I feel how hard it must be for artists that do both christian and secular music, for they usualy gain more popularity on secular music they produce and some hate on christian music that they produce, for they have initially attracted non-christians and maybe even atheists. Sadly some artists have stopped making christian music in order to gain a much larger audience. i.e Katy Perry, for they become more intrested what the world thinks and wants. we now live in a world in which we crave to please man instead of GOD. Many of us are fooled to think that being christian is boring, but it is the best thing anyone can be, for we become citizens of heaven! :) I don't want to pressure anyone, but this is how I feel!
Been looking at this guy since day one. He's become so popular now which is good for Adam. Sometimes though you just gotta find that balance. And it's better as an artist to be real with your fans than fake.
Well said.
Amen Sheniah :)
Amen!
😍😍one of my favorite worship songs paired with such a beautiful voice and a unique spin. Thank you for using your gift to His glory! 🙌🙏👑 Christ is King!
Without Jesus I wouldn t be alive!!!
Amen
true
+Aleksy Sogliani :hi how do you prétend that? Are you "born again" ?
whats the question?
Born again its in the Bible !!!!!!
My father played this song to me growing up. He is a man of god and I denounced it for so many years. As Christ commanded my destiny, he saved me in November of 2022. This song will always bring joyful tears to my eyes.
Praise you Lord for all that you have done!!
i'm not a religious person, but i love the way adam sings this
DJ Space Invader Im not religious either I'm relational. As in wanting a relationship with Christ. Because he saved me.
You speak wisely my friend. Religion is not something worthy to hold onto. It is always about the relationship with God. Well said, Caden! Following religion is basically following some guidelines placed down. Once you find God and build relationship with Him, you will know what true genuine love is. =)
God bless!
+Tony Tran Don't thank me one of my good friends said this while teaching me and some friends the standards of living strongly in Christ. I found it to be truly important and saw this as a good opportunity to share this with others. I'm glad though that you liked it so much have great day man! :-)
DJ Space Invader God is love
Caden Bookmiller merry Christmas. God bless!
I go to school every weekday. And every day there are kids, teachers, and events that lead me away from God. School is anti-God and I try to defend him, but there are too many people to fight (argue) against. I come home, and listen to this song. This song is sent right down from heaven, and into his mouth. This song in the inspiration behind my fight for God. Every day I will fight for him, at school, when I get a job, or at home. This song, is amazing! And I can't express that enough!
Keep fighting, God is with you every step.
God bless you
school is not good, quit school now. You were meant to chase your dream today NOT being in a place where you have to do things you have no passion for and where hope is placed on a piece of paper or certificate they give. May Lord Jesus Christ bless you forever :)
Keep going buddy!
Reading the comments below is so uplifting. So many kind-hearted Christians that share the same faith that I do. Bless all of you.
as a 12 year old boy that sometimes has doubts about God this has really helped me
God has a plan and purpose for your life! God bless you!
Don’t doubt, only believe . John 3:16, John 14:6, Ephesians 2:8-10, Romans 10:9-10, Matthew 11:28-30 💜✝️
Same here
@@parinazaz4044
Nothing wrong for a young guy to doubt God....
It will bring him to more investigation.
Ultimately, the doubt will lead him to a well-considered choice.
God understands.....and will not leave this young guy till he is ready to accept God wholeheartedly.
@@Mindblowingmagic12
People who never doubt God are mostly the lukewarm Christians. Revelation 3:16
They never doubt....but they also never study or investigate God.
Dont you think God understands the fact that young people have doubts?
God is complex.....and He wants us to get to know Him...to see through the complexity.
So how do we do that?....by doubting, asking questions, investigate, study, doubting, asking questions, etc.
And during this proces of spiritual growth, God is smiling and will not leave your side.
Gods ultimate goal is for you to overcome your doubt and to come to a well-considered choice for Him.
Be blessed in the process.....you are on the right path!
Enchanting voice, gorgeous lyrics, just a real spiritual event to listen to this young man. What amazing grace his lyrics and music instills in the listener. God be with you, son, and please keep doing this beautiful work.
WELL MY MOM IS GONE TO GLORY I LOVE HER SOO MUCH I JUST WANT TO SAY THANKS TO OWL CITY FOR YOUR COMFORTING PRAISE TO OUR FATHER GOD MAY THE GOD OF ABRAM,ISSAC,AND JACOB FOREVER USE YOU AND LEAD AND GUIDE YOU INTO ALL TRUTH AND UNDERSTANDING I'M CRYING NOW BUT THERE ARE TEARS OF JOY BECAUSE OF YOUR MUSIC THANK YOU BROTHER'S IN CHRIST
Don't take your eyes off of him. He took her because she was ready, now she is watching over you right next to The Lord Jesus and God Almighty. I bet she's crying for you right now. We're all here for you. I'm not that socially skilled but if you need someone to talk it out with your brother in Christ is here. May you have Good fortune in the future. God Bless! =)
thank you guys so much for your concern and prayers they mean a lot to me
Donna Mitchell Don't mention it sister we're all brother and sisters in Christ so why's it such a surprise that we'd help out our own family? Also remember have a blessed day
thank you sincerly
Mothers are never really gone. Our Dear Lord gives them wings to comfort and protect the people that they love. Every blessing to you and yours Donna Stinson!
One of the best Christians songs i've ever hear. Adam should sing christian songs more often but not in a rock and roll kind of way like galaxies. I'm not saying that galaxies is a bad song but its too loud and not enough graces. Great song Adam, great song.
Um, Owl City is the opposite of rock n' roll.
rock n'roll is loud and the sing galaxies was pretty loud
Andrew Bray
Haha, I see where you are coming from, but genre is not decided by "loudness." :D
I was listening to him when I was 14 and smoking lettuce. Ive become a strong christian since then and to see that he turned to christ, is a beautiful blessing to see. Ive always loved his music, his positive lyrics, and now I know I will see him in heaven! Amazing!
This is so wonderful. Thank you from an American feeling lonely tonight in the Middle East.
God bless you! :)
Hello from Singapore! I hope you'd have a blessed week =)
Barrack Obozo amen! Thank you!! When u have time, check out the music on my channel ! :)
I'm from Singapore too. Hi!
Thank you, I have! I just got back from a Youth Retreat, and I had the time of my life!
No ones gonna mention the fact that Owl City just sang a beautiful Christian song???? Wow
This song is one of those that bring me nothing but peace..thank you owl City for this beautiful track ❤️
