For those who seem not to understand... this song begins in a soliloquy fashion with the completely honest thoughts of someone's heart in regard to a relationship. Though I can't say I've ever "given up on God" in my relationship with Him- I will have to admit there have been several times when I just wanted to hear Him speak to me and agonized over it when it "seemed" He was silent. Part of a young, growing relationship with God is discovering "how to listen" and "how to hear" from God. God is BIG enough for us to voice our frustrations to him. That was one of the first lessons He taught me; that he didn't need me to try and be something/someone I was not- to try and speak just the "right" words in just the "right" way. Rather, He wanted to hear from my heart, just exactly how I felt, exactly where I was in that moment, what were my frustrations, confusion, and all without a filter of something someone else might consider "proper" or "spiritual." In other words, He just wanted to hear "from me." And it was in THAT place where I finally began to learn to actually "hear His voice." For me, I began writing a poem expressing those frustrations and in no uncertain terms. At then end of my words..., His began. He finished the poem by speaking to my heart the words I actually needed to hear from Him at that moment. This song does much the same in the end, in multiple ways to show how God is always there, ready, and willing to speak to us. This song is "raw" and it is real. It is where so many, both Christian and otherwise find themselves today in a world so much in need of God's intervention. If I can't deal with that, how can I be an effective witness of Christ's love, grace, compassion and Truth? This generation is the greatest of all challenges for us who know God to reach. Yet that is the commission He has given us. It isn't about compromise, the dissolution or watering down of the truth of God's Word. It is about reaching people where they are, "hearing" them with God's ear, and finding a way to reach them with His Love. I don't have to take one step back in my faith to do that. On the contrary, my faith is challenged to grow. It isn't about "secular" vs someone's idea of what is "spiritual." It is about being real. God is real. And He meets us all right where we are. The anointing is wherever His Spirit is and upon whatever His Spirit chooses to utilize to perform that ministry, task, work that is needed in a person's life. This song becomes "worship" as does those moments in our lives when God comes in and turns our questions into revelations of Who He really is: a loving God and compassionate Father.
Absolutely love this. Today I graduated college. At 27 I became a widow and became a single mom to a special needs child. I was so angry at God but he never once gave up on me. 5 years later I married a wonderful Christian man, God blessed me with another child and I graduated college. God never gave up on me. He won't give up on you either. He did all those things for a reason. I could not see or understand why God chose me to go through those things but today I see it clearly. I would not be a social worker advocating for children like my daughter.
I don't care what any one says. I'm in tears right now. I needed this whole video right now. I have been going through it something terrible lately and even to the point of questioning my faith and belief.
So many times I told GOD that I was giving up on him in my anger and understanding of his perfect love. He NEVER gave up on me! Praise GOD for HE IS worthy of praise!.
i think there are times that people were so problematic and they are questioning God what's happening in their lives. That's why, on this song, i see it as people who were burdened and giving up on God. But then, God is always there. He never left. He is faithful. He hear our cries. He loves. :)
I've always loved this song... but hearing you guys do it - in a worship context its taken a completely new meaning. There have been many seasons when I could not hear from God, when I could not see him anymore... and I was praying that He would just talk to me. Just saying something... Human faith is weak. We WILL give up on God many times. We will lose sight of him many times. The wonderful truth in this song is this: whether we hear him or not, whether we feel him or not -- he is ever pursuing us. He is strong enough to hold us even when all our strength and resolve is gone.
Agatha Xaris Villa amen! you are right, i love god and this song.my mom dosent really want me to hear those songs,cause it lyrus will bring me away from god,but in the case i love god more.say something
I cannot count how many secular things that God has used to give me messages, sometimes to preach, sometimes to see Him. If 1 person comes to know God through this version, then I believe God is thrilled with it! If it ministers and is not contrary...Worship Mob your music blesses me and obviously many others, keep up His work and remember it is Him who makes it great!!!
Oh my goodness, so beautiful! And transparent! My heart was crying out to Jesus through this entire song. Such beautiful blessings from God. You glorify His Holy Name in such a way! Thank You Father! Hallelujah!
i like this. We do not have enough songs that are laments/anger songs. If you read the psalms (Israel's hymnal) there are many psalms that echo the feeling of "God where are you?" of frustration and longing and sadness. using this song in this way is brilliant.
Couldn't have said it better myself. David poured out his heart in a way that would definitely be frowned upon in today's churches.. but he was a man hungry for the voice and the heart of God.
Sometimes it is only when people lose faith in everything else..and in their own abilities that they realize they can do nothing without Him. That is sometimes the moment where the walls of our heart open enough to let Him love us. The song is beautiful because it shows real passion, from real people..who may not always have the right answers. Sometimes there are no answers, but just His Presence. Sometimes the only strength we have is just from knowing He is "I Am". It is when we are so desperate for one touch, one Word from Him...that we will forsake anything and push through any crowd to get to Him. It does not matter if you have known Him your entire life..or have never really heard His voice at all. He is still there waiting.
God never leaves our side. That's what I take from the song. He continuously calls and runs after us. Revelation 3:20 Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with that person, and they with me. To be apart of a forever family knowing no end. He is my peace.
I had no idea this was a secular song...God sees our hearts and I do not feel bad listening to a song that was Change to worship our OUR KING. ..I LOVE THIS SONG...
I can feel the presence of God as they begin to speak the encouraging words of God. The message of the song means so much to me, as well as it's transition to the heart of God throughout the song. God loves us all. 💞
Absolutely beautiful WorshipMob. The quartet at my church sang this yesterday. The first half I was baffled like Roberta, but yes...second half explains all! Fantabulous to say the least!! Praise be to God...who NEVER will give up on us! May He continue to bless you with songs that will bring Him praise, and encourage His children. Thanks so much!
Ive been reading through these comments and I see mixed responses. Some people are loving the rendition, some are questioning its "holiness". To those people I ask this: What about this song makes it unfit to use for worshipping God? The reasoning I'm seeing from some is that its a secular song by origin. While that's true, how does that make it unworshipful? What WorshipMob did, they heard the words, but they didn't hear some guy/girl singing about leaving someone. They heard a cry that has been a thought on their and our minds more than once. They heard those words and heard the doubt and confusion we sometimes harbor towards God. Heck I'm a worship leader, and sometimes I have doubt; I'm not proud of it, but its going to happen. We all doubt. So when they heard this, they showed us the response that God has for us when we feel these things. Our God will never leave nor forsake us, He will never fail us and he will always be there right beside us backing us up on the journey called life! The second half of this song, it's the way we need to see God. It's not just recycling a melody for a song secular by origin. God doesn't care if we use music like this to worship, because worship is worship! And it's not just confined to music, but is how we live our life! I hope some of my brothers and sisters in Christ who dislike this rendition only because the original wasn't intended for worship reconsider their view on this. I love this song, and I love the musicianship of this group! God has blessed all of you with unending talent! I hope to be a part of what you guys do one day
I agree with you 100% , and thank you , I couldn't have said it any better . God will use anyone and anything he chooses ...they made this song mean something totally different, totally new ...I'm so impressed and blessed by this song . I heard other Christian groups do this to other *secular * songs ...I loved them too . I love anything that glorifies my lord Jesus !
Yes, thank you so much for teaching us youth the true meanings of these songs, although they may not be originally a Christian song, it can be turned into something beautiful in God's eyes
I agree with you Braden Music, as a young Christian sometimes I feel like I have been doing what I'm supposed to be doing, reading my bible, praying to God, living by example but keep hitting walls. People sometimes want to battle with me about my faith and it seems like every day is hard and you sometimes want to ask, "Where are you God, why don't you speak to me, what am I doing wrong " and sometimes even question if God is listening. That is what I hear in the early part of this song. And the answer is abundantly clear, he's always been there, even before we cried out to him, before our weakest moment, before we were even born. He has always been there and always will be! Wonderful rendition of this song.
We are three generations that love WorshipMob! I am the grandfather, our two daughters (44 & 45) and our 22 year old granddaughter love to worship our Jesus with WorshipMob. John & Charles Wesley wrote many of their hymns to the tunes of the current, "secular", "bar-tunes" of their day.
I just wanted to say that we are all redeemed and we have all come short of the glory of God but also redemption is what Christ is all about. He came to make things new even a secular song can be redeemed for his purpose. He is the God of ALL things and he can and will reach us through anything because he is always trying to seek us out. I love this song because I have been there wondering where God is, and this song really captured how it feels to wait to hear his voice and only feel silence but in our stillness and our waiting on him and our giving up to rely on him we will hear him. Thank you so much for listing to God and doing what he says you guys are a blessing to me and many many others.
At the beginning the song threw me off and I question the purpose but then I said to myself: "I have said this words so many times to God". Even thought He was so close to me I felt He was very far away. When we face difficult times it is hard to hear the voice of God so this song just gave me a new meaning. I understand that no matter what I express to God in those moments of desperation or doubt He will never leave me nor He will forsake me. Thank you for letting the spirit guide you to record this song. I know God will open a lot of people's hearts. I pray He does!
WOW. I've read the comments, but I watched it for myself and it brought me to tears. This video is what so many people feel on a daily basis. They are questioning God, feeling alone, saying God where are you? I don't hear you? Then you introduce them to scripture, and lead them to the question they are yearning to know in their hearts. I'm a firm believer in God, but also that we have to meet people where they are. You just did that with this video. Amazing. You've got a new fan here.
The first part shows our humanity and it's weaknesses, then afterwards reading the bible texts, there's a spiritual insight on how our heavenly Father sees each individual weakness and calls it the shot...then we realize our own individual weaknesses....good song guys and girls!
I thank God how he never gives up on us. The Lord will never give up on you, he will speak to you, stand still & know Jesus is calling your name, & he loves you with an everlasting love. Jesus will never give up on you, you are precious in his sight.
The first time I heard this song I was in a dark place. I was feeling so alone and away from God, I don't even know how it got onto my play list. One minute I was sad and angry, next minute I felt understood because I was really giving up on God. Then the next part of the song completely changed me. I felt like this song was made specifically for me. I had never heard the original, for me this was the original, and God used it to save me that day.
Thank you for that testimony, Nonhlanhla. I remember when God showed me these words, and I bet He specifically had you (and a few others) in mind. He is an amazing Father & Creator. He is the source of all LOVE & LIFE. Amen. Bless you in Jesus’ Name!
This version has broke me down and turned me inside out many times during my struggle with addiction and faith. When I'm worst in my addiction I am lowest in my faith and this version and beautiful words spoken always give me hope and courage that I can and will get better and God is with me the whole time im just not listening.. Thanks worshipmob
"Say Something" Say something I'm giving up on you I'll be the one if you want me to Anywhere I would have followed you Say something I'm giving up on you And I, I'm feeling so small It was over my head And I'm nothing at all And I, will stumble and fall I'm still learning to love Just starting to crawl Say something I'm giving up on you I'm sorry that I couldn't get to you Anywhere I would have followed you Say something I'm giving up on you I will swallow my pride You're the one that I love, and I'm saying goodbye Say something I'm giving up on you I'm sorry that I couldn't get to you Anywhere I would have followed you Say something I'm giving up on you Say something I'm giving up on you Say something... Joshua 1:9 Matthew 11:28-29 Romans 8:14-15 Psalm 2:7 Luke 15:18-24 I am a good Father, I know you and I promise, you can hear my voice. The world is so noisy, sometimes you have trouble finding My voice in the crowd and the commotion of life. But if you would let Me quite your heart, My voice will reach you. I will cut through the loudness, the tremendous volume and the great racket the world keeps clamouring around with. I am the gentle whisper inside you. Can you hear Me? Can you hear My constant love beating inside you as close as the hear beating in your chest? I am here. Settle your heart, rest in My love and hear Me calling to you. I am calling your name. I've been watching you child Still learning to love Just starting to crawl And I am waiting here now Will you open your heart I've been here all along You say "I'm not giving up on you!" You say "I'm still running after you! Everywhere, I've been there with you! Child, I will never give up on you!" (x2) Child, I will never give up on you. Child, I have given my heart to you. Child, I have given my heart to you. Child, I will never give up on you.
I could say right now that this song is helping me go through a really deep valley in my life. God bless you for singing this song. I'm holding the second part close to mystery heart.
it cannot be better. better than the x-factor rendition of last year. I pray those who have denied God will come to accept Him again. He is waiting for all of us. Oh my God, this rendition sends me to heaven
I had no idea this was ever a secular song. Listening to this for the first time it reminds me of everytime I doubt God and his plans He reminds me He has everything under control and I can never outrun his love and mercy.
Unable to sleep, feeling weary God led me here...I know it in my heart and I have been tremendously blessed by this version. May our Lord Jesus Christ continue to use each of you for His glory. #blessedbeyondmeasure
It is good to know that we are sons and daughters of a Father who loves us. And no matter what we have done or will do that will never change. We may give up on ourselves, but He will never give up on us. Our loves may grow weary for Him, but His love is deeper and wider, and never grows weary. As we enter into this Holy Week and remember what the Son of God did for us, let us never forget that one of the huge things Jesus did was to open the door for us to be true sons and daughters so that we could live out of that identity instead of remaining in slavery to sin, death, and satan.
Thank you Worship Mob... When going through a difficult time, I discovered this song for me. Then I showed it to my son and it moved him to get help for his abddiction, He then shared it with other addicts. You have made a difference in these lives.
To me this song .shows how i sometimes embattled by life question if god is still with me .and the his awesome response .he has never left my side. ...god is good .and even in our lowest moments he is with us.
I love this song soo much! This is a type of song you could just meditate to in the presence of God... It brings peace...I will try to listen to this every day! :)
hi, from the start of this music i already feel the presence of God.. and then im into tear with out knowing why i tearing for...i only knows is the Love Of God is so Beautiful and i love it so much!...i love Woshiping Our Living God as you Guys did too. God Love us so much!.... .... .... Thank you Lord!
Wow!!!! I cried thru this whole song. Feeling so broken today and I really needed this!!! God's love never leaves us. He is always here to hold us. I'm so thankful for that!
A year ago I probably would have just said this was wrong. But now my mind has changed. My question is, instead of is it right or wrong, but does it bring life? Yes, this song brings life! There is so much brokenness in he world and this is just truth if the Father released. It really uncomplicates things!
While this song is originally a secular song. But Worship Mob used it for good and used the message as a a song to bless people and the spirit really moves with this song. God can take broken pieces and use it for his kingdom
On several occasion, While I listen to this song, I find myself humbled in God presence as I just talk to my heavenly father. God bless you for sharing and God bless your ministry .
Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it. Prone to leave the God I love. Been there. Done that. Ran so far away that I ran right back into His arms. If more people realized that God is big enough to handle our disbelief (didn't come as any shock to Him) maybe the enemy wouldn't tempt so many to despair and take their own lives. It wasn't until I went through the darkest part of my life, when I felt He had forsaken me, that I realized I ought not trust my *feelings*. After He restored me, I realized He not only was the closest to me, He was actually holding me in His arms. (much like the *Footprints* poem) When I am back to doubting again, I run back to Him and sometimes all I can pray is " LORD, I don't know You well enough to KNOW, REALLY KNOW that YOU are ALL I need. "
Jill ahug wow reading this really impacted my life may God continue to bless you and lift you farther into His presence. Thank you for being a courageous daughter.
especially your second part, when god speak to us, is soooo great, .... very very deep to my soul - this words are at the time with Covid 19 so important for this planet and its human beings - a great text writer, a great idea .... your voices, your mixing .... always wonderful .... Thanks from my soul to you
Those words about God being my rest where exactly what I need, I believe that this, this glorious worship is from the heart of God and when I see the comments I can understand the point of everyone when they say that this song maybe is part of the world but nothing is impossible to God and His plans are strange but they also are great so awesome work you guys. This song always get me on the presence of God when the simple words "I am your father"
amazing job! Worshiping God is shown in different ways and no one has the power to say it is or isn't worshiping God. That is God's job. Your band is doing amazing things for people! Keep it up!
This is AMAZING I used to cry hearing original song cause it reminded me of pain I had in my life .....NOW im crying cause of knowing God NEVER gave up on me even when I was giving up ... I THANK YOU so much for this remake i so needed it......
And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. This originally may have been a secular song, but now it can be used as a cross-over song. Just as David Wesley said, if anyone hears this, a seed will have been planted. Edifying, bringing glory and honor to the Kingdom of God.
Honoured we should be to be called sons and daughters of the Most High God of all Creation ...,.... God bless your hearts for touching mines and so many more
Sometimes we have stuff that makes us feel that if God is real then 'WHY'? Hurt, pain, hate, addictions, lies, loss are all things we deal with and sometimes I have sat on my own and asked God to talk to me. I know with all my heart that God is more real and loving and never leaves me. God is saying things to me in His words, His Son and His Spirit. I just have to listen. I am only human and look at things that God sees so differently. That's what this song means to me anyway. Jesus said troubles will come but take heart.....
I am in complete love with Worshipmob. I praise our God with them every night. Their cover of "Say Something" moves me so much! The musicians did such a beautiful job. And the huggy bear in the finale I'd phenomenal👍🙏🏻.
Sometimes in our walk with the Lord we want to give up. And sometimes God sits back and waits to see how desperate we are to pursue Him during our trails and testing times. The way they are singing this song and conveying the words is a person that is in the brim of giving up...so God speaks back to the person stating what they just said and how He has been there all the time. God's love is unconditional, irrevocable and never ending. Thank you Jesus!
This song moves me to tears. The duet is so passionate. I love how you read from the Bible in between. It makes the verses powerful in the context of the music.
In all humility, I didn't even know this was a secular song, but I'm in agreement with the brother who rightly spoke that John and Charles Wesley wrote hymns to bar tunes to reach the lost. Pharisees got upset with Jesus "for eating with tax collectors and sinners," Matthew 9:9-13. Brothers and sisters, let us follow Him Who took on flesh and walked among us to reconcile us to the Father...a Father Who loved the world so much He sent His Son into the world not to condemn the world but so that the world might be saved through Him (John 3:16-17). Shalom!
This song.gives me hope and lets me know not to give up life has a purpose for me and in my heart I won't give up on anyone I was forgotten yrs ago that's how I felt then God gave me hope and love and is helping me with forgiveness
we have strayed from God path we have wanted a word from the Lord an wondered if He's heard us...the Father hasn't given up on you arise an walk again!!!!God loves you he's waiting for you to come back to him
I love this song. When I am at the end of myself in a given situation, this song always comes to my mind of humanities thoughts when they are being tested by their faith to still believe AND REALIZE THE TRUTH that HE IS GOD ALONE. He is always making a way and working behind the scenes. All We need to do is stay in The REST!
Thank you for this. I love this song, because it's a pure call out of someone who lost faith and I know exactly how this is. The thing is that I am a christian but I am also a human and so many times I end up using a mask to hide my fears and doubts I become so exausted and vulnerable. But to know that He is my loving Father who is always with me and love me is something to be grateful for. Thank you for the second half of the song.
This is incredible ! God is using you guys in such a great way . Its a better version of the original and it touches my heart. May God bless you all and continue to use your lives tremendously ! Thank you so much for this song
This is an amazing song. God truly inspired the changes made from the original version for you guys. To think that soo many people around the world could be searching for the original and have this pop up as well and maybe clicked because they want to hear another version is definitely inspirational. To think that people that are lost right now not knowing what they are looking for and finding it in this song alone that may lead to other songs by WorshipMob and Hillsong etc is awesome! To my fellow Christ followers dont be soo judgemental after all God has called us to reach out to those who need Him and this is one way to do so. Much love in Christ and blessings from the Almighty (:
Oh He DOES. Some day you will understand. Care involves choice - freedom to decide. I’m sorry for what has happened to you, but God loves and will redeem every broken thing. Every. One.
we are free to worship our God in the way what my heart tells as as long at its pure heart pure soul and spirit john 3;3 does not only mean that jesus is the only way to see the kingdom of God, but now i am born again I always see the kingdom of God even in darkest hour everyday I am born again and again by the grace of God.........
Absolutely brilliant what you have done with this song. Brought tears to my eyes and made me think about my earthly and heavenly fathers who are both together. Thank you.

Everything was created BY Him, FOR, Him, and THROUGH Him, everything, including this song.
I don't care what any one says. I'm in tears right now. I needed this whole video right now. I have been going through it something terrible lately and even to the point of questioning my faith and belief.
Glad this could bless you and turn your heart back to the Father who keeps loving you ❤
So many times I told GOD that I was giving up on him in my anger and understanding of his perfect love. He NEVER gave up on me! Praise GOD for HE IS worthy of praise!.
seen this a thousand times, makes me cry every time.
Me too
Love you Pamela ❤ from us and from Father God
i think there are times that people were so problematic and they are questioning God what's happening in their lives. That's why, on this song, i see it as people who were burdened and giving up on God. But then, God is always there. He never left. He is faithful. He hear our cries. He loves. :)
I've always loved this song... but hearing you guys do it - in a worship context its taken a completely new meaning. There have been many seasons when I could not hear from God, when I could not see him anymore... and I was praying that He would just talk to me. Just saying something... Human faith is weak. We WILL give up on God many times. We will lose sight of him many times.
The wonderful truth in this song is this: whether we hear him or not, whether we feel him or not -- he is ever pursuing us. He is strong enough to hold us even when all our strength and resolve is gone.
Amen🙌🙏
Agatha Xaris Villa
amen!
you are right, i love god and this song.my mom dosent really want me to hear those songs,cause it lyrus will bring me away from god,but in the case i love god more.say something
I cannot count how many secular things that God has used to give me messages, sometimes to preach, sometimes to see Him. If 1 person comes to know God through this version, then I believe God is thrilled with it! If it ministers and is not contrary...Worship Mob your music blesses me and obviously many others, keep up His work and remember it is Him who makes it great!!!
Oh my goodness, so beautiful! And transparent! My heart was crying out to Jesus through this entire song. Such beautiful blessings from God. You glorify His Holy Name in such a way! Thank You Father! Hallelujah!
On this day 4/18/14, this video ministered to me, and G_D spoke....Thank You...
i like this. We do not have enough songs that are laments/anger songs.
If you read the psalms (Israel's hymnal) there are many psalms that echo the feeling of "God where are you?" of frustration and longing and sadness.
using this song in this way is brilliant.
Couldn't have said it better myself. David poured out his heart in a way that would definitely be frowned upon in today's churches.. but he was a man hungry for the voice and the heart of God.
Sometimes it is only when people lose faith in everything else..and in their own abilities that they realize they can do nothing without Him. That is sometimes the moment where the walls of our heart open enough to let Him love us. The song is beautiful because it shows real passion, from real people..who may not always have the right answers. Sometimes there are no answers, but just His Presence. Sometimes the only strength we have is just from knowing He is "I Am". It is when we are so desperate for one touch, one Word from Him...that we will forsake anything and push through any crowd to get to Him. It does not matter if you have known Him your entire life..or have never really heard His voice at all. He is still there waiting.
God never leaves our side. That's what I take from the song. He continuously calls and runs after us. Revelation 3:20 Here I am! I stand at the door and knock. If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come in and eat with that person, and they with me. To be apart of a forever family knowing no end. He is my peace.
I had no idea this was a secular song...God sees our hearts and I do not feel bad listening to a song that was Change to worship our OUR KING. ..I LOVE THIS SONG...
I can feel the presence of God as they begin to speak the encouraging words of God. The message of the song means so much to me, as well as it's transition to the heart of God throughout the song. God loves us all. 💞
Outstanding! This world is fickle and degrades love into what is merely convenient in the moment, but you're never abandoned by our Real Father.
Absolutely beautiful WorshipMob. The quartet at my church sang this yesterday. The first half I was baffled like Roberta, but yes...second half explains all! Fantabulous to say the least!! Praise be to God...who NEVER will give up on us! May He continue to bless you with songs that will bring Him praise, and encourage His children. Thanks so much!
Ive been reading through these comments and I see mixed responses. Some people are loving the rendition, some are questioning its "holiness". To those people I ask this: What about this song makes it unfit to use for worshipping God? The reasoning I'm seeing from some is that its a secular song by origin. While that's true, how does that make it unworshipful? What WorshipMob did, they heard the words, but they didn't hear some guy/girl singing about leaving someone. They heard a cry that has been a thought on their and our minds more than once. They heard those words and heard the doubt and confusion we sometimes harbor towards God. Heck I'm a worship leader, and sometimes I have doubt; I'm not proud of it, but its going to happen. We all doubt. So when they heard this, they showed us the response that God has for us when we feel these things. Our God will never leave nor forsake us, He will never fail us and he will always be there right beside us backing us up on the journey called life! The second half of this song, it's the way we need to see God. It's not just recycling a melody for a song secular by origin. God doesn't care if we use music like this to worship, because worship is worship! And it's not just confined to music, but is how we live our life! I hope some of my brothers and sisters in Christ who dislike this rendition only because the original wasn't intended for worship reconsider their view on this. I love this song, and I love the musicianship of this group! God has blessed all of you with unending talent! I hope to be a part of what you guys do one day
I agree with you 100% , and thank you , I couldn't have said it any better . God will use anyone and anything he chooses ...they made this song mean something totally different, totally new ...I'm so impressed and blessed by this song . I heard other Christian groups do this to other *secular * songs ...I loved them too . I love anything that glorifies my lord Jesus !
Yes, thank you so much for teaching us youth the true meanings of these songs, although they may not be originally a Christian song, it can be turned into something beautiful in God's eyes
I agree with you Braden Music, as a young Christian sometimes I feel like I have been doing what I'm supposed to be doing, reading my bible, praying to God, living by example but keep hitting walls. People sometimes want to battle with me about my faith and it seems like every day is hard and you sometimes want to ask, "Where are you God, why don't you speak to me, what am I doing wrong " and sometimes even question if God is listening. That is what I hear in the early part of this song. And the answer is abundantly clear, he's always been there, even before we cried out to him, before our weakest moment, before we were even born. He has always been there and always will be! Wonderful rendition of this song.
long review
Why didn’t they change the words then?
We are three generations that love WorshipMob! I am the grandfather, our two daughters (44 & 45) and our 22 year old granddaughter love to worship our Jesus with WorshipMob. John & Charles Wesley wrote many of their hymns to the tunes of the current, "secular", "bar-tunes" of their day.
Everytime I am at a lose I come here and find peace. 10 years later!!!!!
I just wanted to say that we are all redeemed and we have all come short of the glory of God but also redemption is what Christ is all about. He came to make things new even a secular song can be redeemed for his purpose. He is the God of ALL things and he can and will reach us through anything because he is always trying to seek us out. I love this song because I have been there wondering where God is, and this song really captured how it feels to wait to hear his voice and only feel silence but in our stillness and our waiting on him and our giving up to rely on him we will hear him. Thank you so much for listing to God and doing what he says you guys are a blessing to me and many many others.
At the beginning the song threw me off and I question the purpose but then I said to myself: "I have said this words so many times to God". Even thought He was so close to me I felt He was very far away. When we face difficult times it is hard to hear the voice of God so this song just gave me a new meaning. I understand that no matter what I express to God in those moments of desperation or doubt He will never leave me nor He will forsake me. Thank you for letting the spirit guide you to record this song. I know God will open a lot of people's hearts. I pray He does!
God is my forever companion,savior,my everything. Live in the quiet and you will hear from him.
Still listening. Blessings!
WOW. I've read the comments, but I watched it for myself and it brought me to tears. This video is what so many people feel on a daily basis. They are questioning God, feeling alone, saying God where are you? I don't hear you? Then you introduce them to scripture, and lead them to the question they are yearning to know in their hearts. I'm a firm believer in God, but also that we have to meet people where they are. You just did that with this video. Amazing. You've got a new fan here.
The first part shows our humanity and it's weaknesses, then afterwards reading the bible texts, there's a spiritual insight on how our heavenly Father sees each individual weakness and calls it the shot...then we realize our own individual weaknesses....good song guys and girls!
One of my favorite worship ...
Sing it as you are singing to the Father and he responds
I love you my God and Savior 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
I thank God how he never gives up on us. The Lord will never give up on you, he will speak to you, stand still & know Jesus is calling your name, & he loves you with an everlasting love. Jesus will never give up on you, you are precious in his sight.
The first time I heard this song I was in a dark place. I was feeling so alone and away from God, I don't even know how it got onto my play list. One minute I was sad and angry, next minute I felt understood because I was really giving up on God. Then the next part of the song completely changed me. I felt like this song was made specifically for me.
I had never heard the original, for me this was the original, and God used it to save me that day.
Thank you for that testimony, Nonhlanhla. I remember when God showed me these words, and I bet He specifically had you (and a few others) in mind. He is an amazing Father & Creator. He is the source of all LOVE & LIFE. Amen. Bless you in Jesus’ Name!
Wow. Very beautiful and anointed. Brought tears to my eyes
This version has broke me down and turned me inside out many times during my struggle with addiction and faith. When I'm worst in my addiction I am lowest in my faith and this version and beautiful words spoken always give me hope and courage that I can and will get better and God is with me the whole time im just not listening.. Thanks worshipmob
Lord, cause us to listen to You today, to stop and take a moment with You, heart to heart so we may hear Your Voice. Jesus. Let it be so.
My eyelashes are wet, my heart is so pure with so much love ❤️💕🩵
Let us pray for those 16+ who like this. Salvation for them. In Jesus name, Amen
"Say Something"
Say something I'm giving up on you
I'll be the one if you want me to
Anywhere I would have followed you
Say something I'm giving up on you
And I, I'm feeling so small
It was over my head
And I'm nothing at all
And I, will stumble and fall
I'm still learning to love
Just starting to crawl
Say something I'm giving up on you
I'm sorry that I couldn't get to you
Anywhere I would have followed you
Say something I'm giving up on you
I will swallow my pride
You're the one that I love,
and I'm saying goodbye
Say something I'm giving up on you
I'm sorry that I couldn't get to you
Anywhere I would have followed you
Say something I'm giving up on you
Say something I'm giving up on you
Say something...
Joshua 1:9
Matthew 11:28-29
Romans 8:14-15
Psalm 2:7
Luke 15:18-24
I am a good Father, I know you and I promise, you can hear my voice. The world is so noisy, sometimes you have trouble finding My voice in the crowd and the commotion of life. But if you would let Me quite your heart, My voice will reach you. I will cut through the loudness, the tremendous volume and the great racket the world keeps clamouring around with. I am the gentle whisper inside you. Can you hear Me? Can you hear My constant love beating inside you as close as the hear beating in your chest? I am here. Settle your heart, rest in My love and hear Me calling to you. I am calling your name.
I've been watching you child
Still learning to love
Just starting to crawl
And I am waiting here now
Will you open your heart
I've been here all along
You say "I'm not giving up on you!"
You say "I'm still running after you!
Everywhere, I've been there with you!
Child, I will never give up on you!"
(x2)
Child, I will never give up on you.
Child, I have given my heart to you.
Child, I have given my heart to you.
Child, I will never give up on you.
Fidel Carapaica do you happen to know where the last quote (after the bible verses ) is from?
God bless! 💕🕊✨
I wish I could have this reply. I cant copy and paste it
I could say right now that this song is helping me go through a really deep valley in my life. God bless you for singing this song. I'm holding the second part close to mystery heart.
it cannot be better. better than the x-factor rendition of last year. I pray those who have denied God will come to accept Him again. He is waiting for all of us. Oh my God, this rendition sends me to heaven
I had no idea this was ever a secular song. Listening to this for the first time it reminds me of everytime I doubt God and his plans He reminds me He has everything under control and I can never outrun his love and mercy.
This is such a sincere cry of the heart and an even greater response from the Father.
Unable to sleep, feeling weary God led me here...I know it in my heart and I have been tremendously blessed by this version. May our Lord Jesus Christ continue to use each of you for His glory. #blessedbeyondmeasure
It is good to know that we are sons and daughters of a Father who loves us. And no matter what we have done or will do that will never change. We may give up on ourselves, but He will never give up on us. Our loves may grow weary for Him, but His love is deeper and wider, and never grows weary. As we enter into this Holy Week and remember what the Son of God did for us, let us never forget that one of the huge things Jesus did was to open the door for us to be true sons and daughters so that we could live out of that identity instead of remaining in slavery to sin, death, and satan.
Amen!
i love the spin off on the song... the opening showed a lack of hope...yet the ending shows there is hope and a faithful God....
Debs, That's just how we sometimes feel. Even though God is always there and working we are still humans and sometimes cry out to God that way.
Thank you Worship Mob... When going through a difficult time, I discovered this song for me. Then I showed it to my son and it moved him to get help for his abddiction, He then shared it with other addicts. You have made a difference in these lives.
To me this song .shows how i sometimes embattled by life question if god is still with me .and the his awesome response .he has never left my side. ...god is good .and even in our lowest moments he is with us.
I personally believe that we don't need secular music to reach people when we have God's word to reach out to them.
I love this song soo much! This is a type of song you could just meditate to in the presence of God... It brings peace...I will try to listen to this every day! :)
hi, from the start of this music i already feel the presence of God.. and then im into tear with out knowing why i tearing for...i only knows is the Love Of God is so Beautiful and i love it so much!...i love Woshiping Our Living God as you Guys did too. God Love us so much!....
....
....
Thank you Lord!
My Feelings so much of the time...I must say to myself "I AM A SAINT BY THE GRACE OF GOD".
Beautiful Secular Song. I was deeply moved. Thank you WorshipMob. I have worship buddies at home. Thank you all for your life.
Wow!!!! I cried thru this whole song. Feeling so broken today and I really needed this!!! God's love never leaves us. He is always here to hold us. I'm so thankful for that!
I’m listening to this song by you all 9 year’s later! Great Job and I’m still amazed 🙏 December 2, 2023 💜
I think that most - not all - but most people that are broken, looking for a ??? reason to go on, will get this song.
A year ago I probably would have just said this was wrong. But now my mind has changed. My question is, instead of is it right or wrong, but does it bring life? Yes, this song brings life! There is so much brokenness in he world and this is just truth if the Father released. It really uncomplicates things!
This song is what I needed today,
Brought me to tears.
It was a frustrating week.
This reaches deep. Thank You Jesus for not giving up on me or anyone ever. I love You Lord. I love You.♥️
The drummer is so real. Can't think of a word for his drumming. Unbelievable
While this song is originally a secular song. But Worship Mob used it for good and used the message as a a song to bless people and the spirit really moves with this song. God can take broken pieces and use it for his kingdom
I NEEDED this right at this moment I found it. Thank you so much. Such a blessing.
This song gives me hope
Such anointing on this song!! The Lord is looking for sons and daughters to come back home....
we listen to this on our morning prayer. worship mob is truly spirit led group exodus
Oh wow... Never thought about this song as a worship piece and it totally is!!! Love it!
On several occasion, While I listen to this song, I find myself humbled in God presence as I just talk to my heavenly father. God bless you for sharing and God bless your ministry .
Prone to wander, Lord, I feel it. Prone to leave the God I love.
Been there. Done that. Ran so far away that I ran right back into His arms.
If more people realized that God is big enough to handle our disbelief (didn't come as any shock to Him) maybe the enemy wouldn't tempt so many to despair and take their own lives.
It wasn't until I went through the darkest part of my life, when I felt He had forsaken me, that I realized I ought not trust my *feelings*.
After He restored me, I realized He not only was the closest to me, He was actually holding me in His arms.
(much like the *Footprints* poem)
When I am back to doubting again, I run back to Him and sometimes all I can pray is
" LORD, I don't know You well enough to KNOW, REALLY KNOW that YOU are ALL I need. "
Amen
Jill ahug wow reading this really impacted my life may God continue to bless you and lift you farther into His presence. Thank you for being a courageous daughter.
One of the greatest song and version on this earth. Thanks for this!
especially your second part, when god speak to us, is soooo great, .... very very deep to my soul - this words are at the time with Covid 19 so important for this planet and its human beings - a great text writer, a great idea .... your voices, your mixing .... always wonderful .... Thanks from my soul to you
to tell you truth.not everyone will get this message .but I did thank you .broke thru and reached my heart . I see it and its beautiful .god bless
Those words about God being my rest where exactly what I need, I believe that this, this glorious worship is from the heart of God and when I see the comments I can understand the point of everyone when they say that this song maybe is part of the world but nothing is impossible to God and His plans are strange but they also are great so awesome work you guys. This song always get me on the presence of God when the simple words "I am your father"
amazing job! Worshiping God is shown in different ways and no one has the power to say it is or isn't worshiping God. That is God's job. Your band is doing amazing things for people! Keep it up!
This is AMAZING I used to cry hearing original song cause it reminded me of pain I had in my life .....NOW im crying cause of knowing God NEVER gave up on me even when I was giving up ... I THANK YOU so much for this remake i so needed it......
And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose. This originally may have been a secular song, but now it can be used as a cross-over song. Just as David Wesley said, if anyone hears this, a seed will have been planted. Edifying, bringing glory and honor to the Kingdom of God.
So crazy! When I hear this song I always thought of it about God and us. I am not the only one who does this!
Honoured we should be to be called sons and daughters of the Most High God of all Creation ...,.... God bless your hearts for touching mines and so many more
This is SO POWERFUL, so full of the love of our Beautiful Father. I'm crying...
Sometimes we have stuff that makes us feel that if God is real then 'WHY'? Hurt, pain, hate, addictions, lies, loss are all things we deal with and sometimes I have sat on my own and asked God to talk to me. I know with all my heart that God is more real and loving and never leaves me. God is saying things to me in His words, His Son and His Spirit. I just have to listen. I am only human and look at things that God sees so differently. That's what this song means to me anyway. Jesus said troubles will come but take heart.....
I am in complete love with Worshipmob. I praise our God with them every night. Their cover of "Say Something" moves me so much! The musicians did such a beautiful job. And the huggy bear in the finale I'd phenomenal👍🙏🏻.
im feel very so blessed hear this song.. then this song like at my situation now.. " i will never give up on you" yes,i will never give up to Jesus..
Sometimes in our walk with the Lord we want to give up. And sometimes God sits back and waits to see how desperate we are to pursue Him during our trails and testing times. The way they are singing this song and conveying the words is a person that is in the brim of giving up...so God speaks back to the person stating what they just said and how He has been there all the time. God's love is unconditional, irrevocable and never ending. Thank you Jesus!
+Naida Alvarado well spoken....
This song moves me to tears. The duet is so passionate. I love how you read from the Bible in between. It makes the verses powerful in the context of the music.
i like the song, and all i can say is music is an instrument to worship divinity.
In all humility, I didn't even know this was a secular song, but I'm in agreement with the brother who rightly spoke that John and Charles Wesley wrote hymns to bar tunes to reach the lost. Pharisees got upset with Jesus "for eating with tax collectors and sinners," Matthew 9:9-13. Brothers and sisters, let us follow Him Who took on flesh and walked among us to reconcile us to the Father...a Father Who loved the world so much He sent His Son into the world not to condemn the world but so that the world might be saved through Him (John 3:16-17). Shalom!
For those who are disappointed remember Jesus turns many things around for his good
I just cant stop crying... Thankyou Jesus!:)
This song.gives me hope and lets me know not to give up life has a purpose for me and in my heart I won't give up on anyone I was forgotten yrs ago that's how I felt then God gave me hope and love and is helping me with forgiveness
we have strayed from God path we have wanted a word from the Lord an wondered if He's heard us...the Father hasn't given up on you arise an walk again!!!!God loves you he's waiting for you to come back to him
This version of this song is one of my favorite ones.....if you close your eyes...you can feel the worthy worship of this group....
I love this song. When I am at the end of myself in a given situation, this song always comes to my mind of humanities thoughts when they are being tested by their faith to still believe AND REALIZE THE TRUTH that HE IS GOD ALONE. He is always making a way and working behind the scenes. All We need to do is stay in The REST!
Thank you for this. I love this song, because it's a pure call out of someone who lost faith and I know exactly how this is. The thing is that I am a christian but I am also a human and so many times I end up using a mask to hide my fears and doubts I become so exausted and vulnerable. But to know that He is my loving Father who is always with me and love me is something to be grateful for. Thank you for the second half of the song.
Wow...this is it. This is what I have been feeling for the last year. What a beautiful song! Thank you so much for posting this. I needed this.
The best song ever, it reveals that God will never give up on us and so to us to other people.. Godbless worship mob
This is incredible ! God is using you guys in such a great way . Its a better version of the original and it touches my heart. May God bless you all and continue to use your lives tremendously ! Thank you so much for this song
This is an amazing song. God truly inspired the changes made from the original version for you guys. To think that soo many people around the world could be searching for the original and have this pop up as well and maybe clicked because they want to hear another version is definitely inspirational. To think that people that are lost right now not knowing what they are looking for and finding it in this song alone that may lead to other songs by WorshipMob and Hillsong etc is awesome! To my fellow Christ followers dont be soo judgemental after all God has called us to reach out to those who need Him and this is one way to do so. Much love in Christ and blessings from the Almighty (:
merci ....un réel plaisir de vous entendre et partager ce moment musical avec vous ...et christ...soyez benis....
If only God cared about us as much as some of us care for each other.
Oh He DOES. Some day you will understand. Care involves choice - freedom to decide. I’m sorry for what has happened to you, but God loves and will redeem every broken thing. Every. One.
I love how you maid this song a christian song I think it's so powerful I listened to over and over again and I'm so touched Great job guys great job
we are free to worship our God in the way what my heart tells as as long at its pure heart pure soul and spirit john 3;3 does not only mean that jesus is the only way to see the kingdom of God, but now i am born again I always see the kingdom of God even in darkest hour everyday I am born again and again by the grace of God.........
Absolutely brilliant what you have done with this song. Brought tears to my eyes and made me think about my earthly and heavenly fathers who are both together. Thank you.
I weep everytime I hear this song ... shivers up and down my body!! This is so powerful ....
