Everyone is over contemplating this song. Gungor is a Christian artist who has produced some of the deepest meanings of Christianity in his songs. This song like the rest is not buddhist, or anything else but Christian. It gives glory to God through His creation. "Eternity within a man" EVERY person has an eternal soul. Its not saying that we are god and what not. We live for eternity in Heaven or Hell. Thats it. Momentary carbon stories (our bodies, its what we are made of) from the ashes, filled with Holy Ghost. Life is here now, breathe it all in, let it all go, you are earth and wind. This song is beautiful and Gungor wants Christians and everyone to know that life is fun. And worshipping God and doing His will can be fun as well. Religion is dead. Jesus is alive.
J Perkins that's the beauty of life. There's more than one meaning. Not all meanings are allowed, that's relativism, but cultural interpretation is good and needed
I am mountain, I am dust Constellations made of us There's glory in the dirt A universe within the sand Eternity within a man We are ocean, we are mist Brilliant fools who wound and kiss There's beauty in the dirt Wandering in skin and soul Searching, longing for a home As the light, light Lights up the skies, up the skies We will fight, fight Fight for our lives, for our lives Oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh Oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh I am mountain, I am dust Constellations made of us There's mystery in the dirt The metaphors are breaking down We taste the wind and sight is sound As the light, light Lights up the skies, up the skies We will fight, fight Fight for our lives, for our lives As the light, light Lights up the skies, up the skies We will fight, fight Fight for our lives, for our lives Oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh Oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh Oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh Oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh Momentary carbon stories From the ashes Filled with holy ghost Life is here now Breathe it all in Let it all go You are earth and wind La da da da, la da da da, La da da da, la da da da da La da da da Oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh Oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh Oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh Oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh
This is where and when Gungor was best... both musically and spiritually. There was a beautiful balance and they spoke to me and reflected what, to me, is the true message. The world is not black and white and there is such radiance in all the spectrum of colors in between. Life is a journey and it takes us all different places but I do hope they find their way home again!
Gungor is beyond talented! I saw them perform at a fund-raiser for a mission. Very good people! Talented performers! There is more to the bible than literalism--deeper spiritual truths are there for those with eyes to see and ears to hear. 💖 May we all be blessed with goodness, love, health, faith & hope, and the heart to help others.
I love this. I don't believe these words literally but as i think upon humanity, the pinnacle of God's creation, I can see the signature of God that is upon all creation, mountains, rivers, creatures, lights, shapes, earth and I see all these factored into human design and purpose. I wonder in awe upon God's mastery.
@@haneefbowens87 Catholics aren’t Christians they serve the devil and twist the Bible. But and well if you ever consider just know God is waiting for you to call out to him. (:
Wow. Amazing song, lyrics, and video. I believe the music video speaks about creation, specifically the story of human creation and how that fits into the universe. When Michael and Lisa find the "cult-like" group of people in white, it represents how cold we have become within our own religion of "Christianity." We forget that we were made by the creator of the heavens. We are alive and should rejoice in that! God loves us unconditionally, and we are His beautiful creation. Praise the Lord!!
pure genius.... there are certain musicians who continually fly under the radar, and consistently produce the best music on the scene... Gungor is on that list
I just love this so much! It gives me this feeling of aww at the creation of God, the awesomeness of being alive, and the reminder that we are just dust but God makes us more! Amazing! We are amazing! Just makes me want to worship God.
Great message this sends. Sometimes we can be caught up in following procedure and putting rules before people when we forego even the most obvious beauties of nature and the joys of being together in community as human beings. Also we are plain and incomplete without Christ, Christ gives us color and life to enjoy being in relationship with him
I love this! It's like totally different from the typical mainstream Christian music these days, and to me, it's wayyyyy better. It's kind of indie, but I've fallen in love with it
This is a tweet from him Michael Gungor @michaelgungor How’s this: Apophatic mystic Hindu pantheist Christian Buddhist skeptic with a penchant for nihilistic progressive existentialism
Wow, it's like the first time i'm listening to this song. I believe i haven't listened to it in 10 years. Such a great feeling... The composition is so deep!
Stunning stunning stunning luv watching your videos they rock brilliant outstanding voice and music always playing music uplifted always listening to music brilliant god bless
I thank you for so many songs from heaven for us, you have an unmistakable and striking style .. I am Brazilian and I would really like this essence to also be in the Christian bands of my country ... thank you gungor ... you are incredible ... be that light of God that illuminates the way while they live. They won another subscriber... ❤❤❤❤❤
First time listening t I this song and the video is amazing. I think it's biggest meaning is just that Christianity and being a follower of Christ doesn't have to be boring.
The video is about breaking from the norm. In their case, the Christian norm. You see a bunch of people all dull, wearing white, church setting. And then boom, they start to realize there's so much more to Christianity and God then what they've been taught in their churches. Color, and freedom. And a greater understanding of God, and the book they've been worshiping.
We don't worship a 'book' like you state. We worship the One and Only Father, Son and Holy Spirit. The Bible is written by God but we Christians don't bow to the Bible, we bow to God, Jesus and the Spirit of God.
+Tyler Malm beautiful....love this. Thanks for sharing. Not overspiritualizing, just pure, simple truth. We need an awakening in America....A return to our first love and the JOY OF OUR SALVATION.

+Logan Swartz we will live in Heaven for a millenium and eternity in New Jerusalem
Logan Swartz I thought eternity within a man referred to Jesus himself as he is the Alpha and omega in human form
J Perkins that's the beauty of life. There's more than one meaning. Not all meanings are allowed, that's relativism, but cultural interpretation is good and needed
BNROEC I took it to mean Jesus as well. But I like this one as well
I think it's referring to Ecclesiastes - he has put eternity in their hearts
I am mountain, I am dust
Constellations made of us
There's glory in the dirt
A universe within the sand
Eternity within a man
We are ocean, we are mist
Brilliant fools who wound and kiss
There's beauty in the dirt
Wandering in skin and soul
Searching, longing for a home
As the light, light
Lights up the skies, up the skies
We will fight, fight
Fight for our lives, for our lives
Oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh
Oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh
I am mountain, I am dust
Constellations made of us
There's mystery in the dirt
The metaphors are breaking down
We taste the wind and sight is sound
As the light, light
Lights up the skies, up the skies
We will fight, fight
Fight for our lives, for our lives
As the light, light
Lights up the skies, up the skies
We will fight, fight
Fight for our lives, for our lives
Oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh
Oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh
Oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh
Oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh
Momentary carbon stories
From the ashes
Filled with holy ghost
Life is here now
Breathe it all in
Let it all go
You are earth and wind
La da da da, la da da da,
La da da da, la da da da da
La da da da
Oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh
Oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh
Oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh
Oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh, oh-ooh-oh
Thanks
This is perfect for road trips. Gungor gives me life.
Rather, it is Jesus who can give you life. Eternally. With Him!

♥️♥️♥️♥️🙌
I love it. It's like Indie Praise music.
My favorite genre
Yes! I literally have a indie Christian folk Playlist on Spotify. My favorite
It IS indie Christian music.

I first heard this song in prison about 7 years ago! Such a peaceful song and a great melody! 🥰🥰🥰
Have you ever considered being a Christian in prison or after being released?
@@shxdow9807 neither I was raised Catholic

I heard this in prison as well back in 2014. Did you see it on Juicetv?
@@Lost_Boy_Graffiti_Writer definitely did!
Momentary carbon stories
From the ashes

Such beautiful poetry.

This song is one of, in my opinion, the best Christian songs ever
pure genius....
there are certain musicians who continually fly under the radar, and consistently produce the best music on the scene... Gungor is on that list
This music is too, brings joy, hope, cheer when we hear! God bless Gungor.
Cannot get enough of the music Gungor puts out. Their music provokes depth and emotion which we are currently missing as a society.
I just love this so much! It gives me this feeling of aww at the creation of God, the awesomeness of being alive, and the reminder that we are just dust but God makes us more! Amazing! We are amazing! Just makes me want to worship God.
Amazing.
from one spark many sparks being lit running through the dark wilderness spreading the joy where ever they go. Absolutely beautiful....
They look so happy.
Honestly one of the most original Christian songs I have come across. Love it
I'm absolutely 100% still in love with this song.
This is one of the most beautifully unique songs I have ever heard across all genres.
Just sensational. The best christian music videoclip I've already seen. God bless u. Gungor.
I cant get over how beautiful this is
I'm just loving the 80's - 90's feeling to this with those synths...
This song actually made me more of a Christian if anything.
Such a deep spiritual song strongly based in science. Amazing!!
Yes 100%
this is my Bible reading music💛
😢😢😢still is❤
Haha! "Colorful"! Can't wait! Tuesday, some new seeds 'll be sprouting!
Love you guys. He's still got you. I am confident...He began a good work in you and He ain't done yet!
I gotta say, this is probably one of the coolest tracks I've stumbled upon.
Great message this sends.

You Gungor couple are GREAT!!! Great song ever made by you, and what God does with your lifes. I am amazed.
The more I listen to the lyrics, the more I find them beautiful and true. Just... wow! Gungor, keep on doing what you're doing! You're an inspiration.
I love this! It's like totally different from the typical mainstream Christian music these days, and to me, it's wayyyyy better. It's kind of indie, but I've fallen in love with it
Right on!!
Its different from the typical Christian music because it isn't Christian! Gungor has converted to Hinduism and also believes in new Age teachings.

Their voices are so beautiful!! Great song
*I want this and Gungor to get more views and likes because this is art tbh*
Just found this song…
✨ITS FANTASTIC!!!✨
There's glory in the dirt
The universe within the sand
Eternity within a man.
Just thought I would re-emphasize that. ;)
This music is pretty good.
Stunning stunning stunning luv watching your videos they rock brilliant outstanding voice and music always playing music uplifted always listening to music brilliant god bless
My mind is blown. Thank you.
I love how Gungors music is full of this primal knowledge and wisdom.
Mysteriously brave, sweetly composed music Gungor. I love this.

Thats... I have no world. Pure, beautiful, atmospheric.
Thank you.
I love this group. Their music is one of the few songs we cover as a band.
Oh Gungor, please don't ever stop doing this.
Heard this Live on their tour! Love it
Man and Woman. God Protect. Amen.
It's not about praising man. It's God speaking
Gotta take in the lyrics. Nothing wrong with finding beauty in God's creation. Even HE said it was "very good".
The symbolism in this is brilliant. Subtle, but not impossible to decipher. These guys never disappoint.
Love it!

Paul Sterling Where in the Bible did Jesus asked anyone to bow to him or to HIM( as in divinity quality)?
Wow! Awesome...such creativity...
Absolutely beautiful! The sound, the lyrics, the visuals.... just wow!
Simply brilliant!
Thanks!
Thank you for the moving Song that speaks to my Heart and moves me to Act.

Siiiiiii En el tour tienen que incluir Argentina. Es urgente.
Yes. Amazing.
Yes! i'm glad i'm not the only one who thought so. The first time i heard him sing the higher notes near the end I immidiately thought of Sufjan.
LOVE this. Thank you!
I love this so much.
I love that 80's synth they got going on before the chorus!
Awesome song, trippy video, I dig it!
The lyrics are just so good!
I love it very much. The sound is just overwhelmingly beautiful.
