Would you be kind enough to teach me about your religion so I can write more lyrics for Skillet to sing about? I'm only looking for positive vibes and moral lessons. As Skillet's lyricist I wrote 'Stars' as a mixed combination of themes from Buddhism, Christianity, and Sunni religions.
@@deeanna3749 Oh boy ! Are you really the writer of the lyrics ? If it is that , first at all, congratulations. And no, the lyrics are perfectly fine, my personal beliefs I guess not necessarily improve your work, It's superb as it is right now.
You spoke a word and life began Told oceans where to start and where to end You set in motion time and space But still you come, and you call to me by name But still you come, and you call to me by name If you can hold the stars in place You can hold my heart the same Whenever I fall away Whenever I start to break So here I am lifting up my heart To the one who holds the stars The deepest depths, the darkest nights Can't separate, can't keep me from your sight I get so lost, forget my way But still you love, and you don't forget my name If you can hold the stars in place You can hold my heart the same Whenever I fall away Whenever I start to break So here I am lifting up my heart If you can calm the raging sea You can calm the storm in me You're never too far away You never show up too late So here I am lifting up my heart To the one who holds the stars Your love has called my name What do I have to fear? What do I have to fear? Your love has called my name What do I have to fear? What do I have to fear? If you can hold the stars in place You can hold my heart the same Whenever I fall away Whenever I start to break So here I am lifting up my heart (lifting up my heart) If you can calm the raging sea You can calm the storm in me You're never too far away You never show up too late So here I am lifting up my heart To the one who holds the stars You're the one who holds the stars
This is a song that's hard for me to hear, but helps remind me of just how far I've come. Today I have 4yrs 6mo clean time from a nasty pain pill addiction. I used to lay in my shower, sick, crying out to God. "Save me or take me, please, I'm so sorry" and He did come for me. This song was one I would play on repeat for hours, sometimes days. It wasn't immediate, because He knew I wasn't ready. But once I hit my knees, admitted my defeat and started to help myself, there He was. He had been there the whole time... I am so thankful to have been saved. I love my God and I love this beautiful song. 💜
God bless you!!! You keep that courage with God forever!! As a person in recovery myself, I can proudly say God heals!! When the student is ready, the teacher will appear...
I'm going on 12 months clean, without the drug's. I love skillet, especially the song victorious. God can't help us untill we help ourselves. Listen to the songs victorious & save me 👍💖
I lost my wife last week. She was 39 and her birthday is next week. We were supposed to go on a family cruise to celebrate her 40th. I have been listening to this a lot. I feel I will always be broken, but this helps.

I find that this song brings me to my faith. I’m a recovering addict. Almost 6 years sober. God saved my life! Granted I worked hard for my sobriety but I kept faith that god would get me through the hell I was living and he did! This song touches my heart
I lost my house, three family members to COVID, and have faced financial hardship; but this song gets me through these times of uncertainty. God gives his fighters the toughest bout because he knows if Job can endure it, so can his champions.
I love how God comforts us. I have definitely felt God comfort me through music. I pray you continue to feel Gods love and comfort through music. He is our rock and our fortress and he works all things for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose. He is close to the brokenhearted and he binds their wounds. Dont doubt for a minute he's not with you. He never leaves or forsakes us. Bless you brother.
@@timv82 completely disagree some of the most talented musicians around are singing for Jesus but no one wants to give them the credit they are due because they are Christian artists..case in point Need to breathe, Lecrae, For King and Country ..I could go on
I'm not a Christian, but I absolutely love these guys. This acoustic version of Stars is beautiful. Thank you, Skillet, for making some of the greatest music I've ever heard.
Well dude god gave us free will, to follow him or not to, *christian* he gave us a brain a body and a soul, we choose what to do with them. after that, its up for the person to choose what to do @John Debord
Imagine all the millions of people and God knows us all by our names, hears our prayers and answers all of them. Sometimes his answer is yes and sometimes it’s, be still and know I am working in your life. Amazing grace!
This is literally one of the reasons why I love skillet not only they are Christians like myself but they speak from the heart everytime they sing a song and it goes to god. This song represents everything that god is so wonderful to all of us no matter if ur a Christian or not💯
I've been struggling with my mental health recently, and I just can't seem to control myself, my anxiety has forced me to hide from the real world and forget about everything. But whenever I hear this song, something inside me hits me. I know some people aren't big believers but this song impacts me to continue to look up in front of me and continue to have faith to move on. This fight will not be easy but I believe that God and in the name of Jesus, I will find that light at the end of the tunnel. This band no matter what will be my favorite, been a Skillet fan for countless years and this band has helped me get through my social anxiety with these powerful songs. I encourage everyone whatever battle you are facing, do not give up and lose hope, the world may be sick and so many people are cruel but that does not mean you should continue to be a shadow to everyone that admires you. Everyone that knows you are rooting for you and it would not be the same for them if it wasn't without you. No matter how significant your battle is, I believe you will overcome it and reach the light and get out of your shadows. Matthew 11:28-30 - God lightens your burdens. - Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light. Never give up and continue to be you, always. ❤️🙏
Thank you for this, seriously. Sometimes I feel so lost and far away and there is a constant battle in my mind. God Bless everyone and all those battling something.🤍✝️
Absolutely, God bless you. I walk with God and heavens everyday in this messed up cruel world in my life. I have nothing left to fear when it comes to myself with God by my side. There's nothing left any person can do to me unless the only thing left is to take my life. That's about it 😂.... Amen ✝️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
For those who are broken... You're not alone, there's so many people who feel pain like you, but don't worry, even if you don't believe in God, there's always a way to keep it up. Don't surrender, don't doubt, you will be fine, you will be okay, God loves you all, and we all can make it.
I love the message in this song. God is never, EVER far from you, even when it feels like He is, which is what I'm going through, i feel SO distant from God yet, I know He's right there.
Take comfort I the fact that the family of Christ is undergoing the same. Let's pray for each other. And like the woman with the issue of blood with faith. God bless you, friend.
I have always love skillet. From “Monster” to “Feel Invincible”. But this song has made me cry in the past. Usually I don’t cry, but it is just the vibes that make me push on. Hopes to people who have had hardships in their lives know that God loves you even you don’t believe in him. YOU ARE NOT A MISTAKE!!!! YOU Are A GIFT!!!
Skillet you guys have no idea how powerful u all are. Your music has brought me out of depression from loosing loved ones to suicide and has made me feel stronger than I've ever been in my life. I love, love, love all your lyrics. And I absolutely love how even though your music is Christian based and I don't follow any sect of Christianity the words you all sing touch me from the bottom of my heart. I love how no matter a person's faith your music brings us all together. Thank you for your music.
I read the book "The Shack" seven years after my brother was murdered. It brought me out of the valley that I was stuck in. Then the movie came out and this song says it all. It speaks volumes to to the healing.
I was in a similar boat two years ago. I was raised in the church, went every Sunday and youth group on Wednesday. I couldnt find myself believing in a God, especially not in the modern world, not with how life is, not with the church either. God chases us as individuals and Hope's to nurture the relationship as such. I pray he continues to pull at your heart. I pray that you see a beauty in life worth protecting, I pray you realize that's God working in you. Religion isnt perfect, the church isnt perfect, people aren't perfect, but God is. When people say it's a personal relationship they dont even begin to do it justice. I would love to speak further on the topic with you if you'd like to chat message me. Either way I know his work with you isnt done, I'm glad skillet has made an impact on your life and I'm even more excited that it has stayed with you. I know I made one hell of a comment but I truly hope you give it a read.
@@joshuacarter6420 Exactly you get that this relationship we have is not a religion but the most serious relationship we will ever have and honestly I wish I could help others see that this relationship is much more to us than just going to church it's a true blessing everyday within my life and I just hope someday I can help someone else be apart of this blessing
Remember Christianity isn't a religion. Its a relationship with Jesus Christ. Praise the lord. And allow all our hearts to be softened to recieve you and accept your grace
This was one of the only songs my grandma liked from this band and she really loved it. My grandma had a major stroke in my arms in March of 2019 and died pretty horrifically 4 days after that and I continued playing this song through those last couple days and after she died this song was a God-send with processing the grief through that horrible experience. I still listen to this song when life just feels hard. God is good and I strongly feel music is something that can help us with our walk with the Lord.
I'm not at all Religious but I've always admired and greatly respect how people can find comfort, strength and meaning in life by simply believing in a higher power. It's a beautiful thing.
Whenever i listen to this song, it always reminds me of how well off i am. I live in a rural area of the UK away from serious crime. I have a loving family and amazing friends. My life is so close to perfect, and whenever I listen to this, I'm reminded of how well God has treated me. Recently, i felt like my life was empty, so i prayed. God answered. I know not everyone believes, but i believe that everyone should know he still cares for you even if you don't know him yet.❤
I'm not religious at all, but it shouldn't matter. These guys rock and some of their songs have saved my life... Even though I'm not Christian I'm thankful for what they have done for me
williamf342 this song isn't about "religion" it's about having a. RELATIONSHIP with Jesus Christ... they speak about real life issues that every day christians endure... they are a Christian band and they love what they sing... glad to hear they've helped you ❤️
Beautiful testimony! 💙 their songs have helped me through dark times and this song just reaffirms that He calls us all by name and in our darkest times, He is there.
I lost my grandma last year. She helped a lot for my parents to raise me. Listening to this, I can see her face again. I'm afraid that after some years I will forget her voice. God, please, take care of my grandma, and give her a seat at your table in heaven.
I'm so sorry man, I know it's hard but keep on going and don't think about it too much. Life is hard but also full of beautiful things to discover and do. Keep on living 👊🏻
Im sorry bro im bout lo lose my grandma and y lost my grandpa and my brother cause of cancer... i know how it feel cause if forgot my brothers voice and is not happy to think bout it
You’re not alone and I understand your struggle. I just lost my brother on 12/12/2021 and he was 22. I’m so sorry to hear about your son, I understand how tragic it can be. I hope you can find peace and strength through it all 💕 may he Rest In Peace
During this time in history, things seem out of control. But, the one who holds the Stars is watching over you and me, and is turning everything for our good
LYRICS ! (YOU'RE WELCOME) "Stars" You spoke a word and life began Told oceans where to start and where to end You set in motion time and space But still you come and you call to me by name Still you come and you call to me by name If you can hold the stars in place You can hold my heart the same Whenever I fall away Whenever I start to break So here I am, lifting up my heart To the one who holds the stars The deepest depths, the darkest nights Can't separate, can't keep me from your sight I get so lost, forget my way But still you love and you don't forget my name If you can hold the stars in place You can hold my heart the same Whenever I fall away Whenever I start to break So here I am, lifting up my heart If you can calm the raging sea You can calm the storm in me You're never too far away You never show up too late So here I am, lifting up my heart To the one who holds the stars Your love has called my name What do I have to fear? What do I have to fear? Your love has called my name What do I have to fear? What do I have to fear? If you can hold the stars in place You can hold my heart the same Whenever I fall away Whenever I start to break So here I am, lifting up my heart (Lifting up my heart) If you can calm the raging sea You can calm the storm in me You're never too far away You never show up too late So here I am, lifting up my heart To the one who holds the stars You're the one who holds the stars
I made my first solo trip to south america about a week ago and this song helped me to remember that God cares about therefore He is with me, when i was a teenager i suffered from panic attacks and anxiety, the thought of diying was constantly in my head, so i wanted to be in my house, with my parents all the time, cuz i felt safe however i was getting worse but God helped me and deliver me from that fear, and with this trip I saw the hand of God with me the whole time even when those thoughts wanted to come back He was there reassuring me that everything was gonna be fine and so it did! God is Good all the time!
I love this song. It tells me that God is all-powerful and nothing will happen if He doesn't want it to. Thank you Skillet for writing such a powerful and inspiring song. God bless you!
Jackie Faith, you're not alone I lost both of my grandfathers one passed away due to cardiovascular shock back in 2011 right after my graduation parties and another grandfather passed away due to lung cancer back in 2019, I mean every time that I listen to this song it helps me think about both of them and both of them always love me no matter what.
Hey!!! Our brand new song Masterpiece ft. Tate Olsen of Skillet Mixed and Mastered by Jake Jones is out!!! Let us know what you think! ua-cam.com/video/FFAycXqrp1M/v-deo.html
My father passed away in May of a failed kidney transplant and my grandma got diagnosed with leukemia today. I was led right to this song. They are and were both wonderful children of God and I fall away so often but I know in the end I'm held by the one who holds the stars.
Kate Pearson have you tried Disciple, Set for the Fall, Nine Lashes, As We Ascend, and Switchfoot? They're all Christian and absolutely fabulous. Just a thought! God bless!
+Phenixrider132 Have you heard of all the bands I listed? I like Red, some Project 86, Kutless, We as Human, Scarlet White, and the Letter Black are all really good
Kate Pearson if you only listen to them because they are "a Christian band" then ur missing out. there's so many bads with amazing songs. skillet is mainly a rock band, inspire by their believes. not the other way arround.
Alex Re Actually, Skillet calls themselves a Christian band. I've been to a concert of theirs where they professed that, as well as seen many interviews. There's nothing wrong with listening to music that agrees with your beliefs, especially since a lot of rock and metal doesn't necessarily concur with Scripture. Please allow people to enjoy music that agrees with scriptural principles because it's hard to find, and if that's all people want to listen to, please respect that that's the music they enjoy!
I cant get through this song without crying. May god bless your band. "Your Love has called my name. What do I have to fear, What do I have to fear." Trust in the Lord.
PB Broz John (the lead singer) Said he wrote this song for his dead mother because of cancer and i cried because my grandma died couple days ago and i related to it
Es un crimen que UA-cam aun no tenga la opción "me encanta". Esta obra de arte merece millones. Sin duda Skillet es una de las mejores bandas cristianas de todos los tiempos.
Dey A. A. De Calzadilla que bueno que por medio de ellos llegaste a Dios .. Sigue no dejes de buscarlo y amarlo .. Dios es bueno y es lo mejor que podemos tener en nuestras vidas .. Yo igual soy cristiana de años .. Desde mi niñez gracias a mis padres
I just recently lost my dad. One of my biggest memories with him was going to your guys concert. It was my first and last with my dad. After that night this was our song. No matter where we were going we always listened to this. This was our song and everytime I listen to it, it brings back all of those memories and I wnated to thank you guys for this. He loved you guys and always listend to your music. Everytime a new album came out bought. There was a night when I was younger he was feeling down and he picked me up and slow danced with me to the song Lucy. I just wanted to say thank you again you guys are amazing🥺♥️
Lost my pop in March to Cancer. I mourn still, but I look for signs of him and he will get me through this difficult time in life. Also losing my wife of 10 years. When it rains, it pours. Man I need some friends.
Ezzedine Itani I’m so sorry for both of your losses. I lost my dad may 10th it has been hitting really hard lately. We were told by the doctors he was doing good and he would be going home in a couple of day. He was talking to my brother and told him he loved him. 45 minutes later we got a call saying he may not make it and me my brother and sister sat around him and held is hand while he passes away.
@@kianatingley7368 Very tough to witness. I had to watch my kids in the car (covid was just starting to come to US) and didnt see him flatline, but went to say farewell to him after and feel his warm hand for the last time. Oh my God the tears I feel them. Thank you for your kind response and condolences from my end.
You spoke a word and life began Told oceans where to start and where to end You set in motion time and space But still You come and You call to me by name But still You come and You call to me by name If You can hold the stars in place You can hold my heart the same Whenever I fall away Whenever I start to break So here I am, lifting up my heart To the one who holds the stars The deepest depths, the darkest nights Can't separate, can't keep me from Your sight I get so lost, forget my way But still You love and You don't forget my name If You can hold the stars in place You can hold my heart the same Whenever I fall away Whenever I start to break So here I am, lifting up my heart If You can calm the raging sea You can calm the storm in me You're never too far… Best band I've ever heard.... All Glory to the Jesuscrist...
i have the lyrics on my wall with comments on basically every line relating to something that happened in my life or where that specific line helped me get through a difficult time. this is genuenly is what gives me faith.
This song is so deep I'm trying to pass this video around to any and everybody so they can hear how beautiful this song is and how beautiful God is this is the song for the world to heal for the pandemic
I lost my grandpa 2 years ago he was diagnosed with lung and brain cancer the doctor gave him 3 months , I prayed day after day god gave me and my Family 1 Year spend time with him and after he die Hurt so much I started listening to My old favorite songs thank you skillet for all you did i’m making a beautiful music Love you all
Through my mistakes, through my problems, through my lack of understanding, through my pain and my sufferings and crying. I'm not a Christian but honestly, I need god more now than ever. Make sure to talk to God..
I first heard them when I wasn't doing too well, my grandpa had just died, and I was pretty depressed and kinda suicidal tbh. The first song I found was the last night and it helped me a lot. I'm not quite as depressed now, but it's still a fight that's ongoing. I miss you grandpa.
Hey everyone. I’ve been diagnosed with depression. This song makes me feel a little better. I have faith God will make things better. For all of you who feel sad/hopeless, just trust him, he loves you. Don’t lose faith. :)
Jorge Esteva I have it, too. I wanna say that it’s ok for us to use medicine alongside The Word. It’s wrongfully demonized by some and I just wanted to give you that encouragement in case you ever felt pressured by others not to pursue medical help
Depression isn't a disease or a sickness, it's something that everyone struggles with from time to time, it's part of being human. The society and our culture just uses it as an excuse to be sad, take pills, not work and push our responsibilities away from us
We preach Christ crucified because WE KNOW that it is the message and the POWER to TRANSFORM one's mind and heart back towards the Living God. All sin will do is deceive us into thinking that WE can take and play the role of God in our own lives but the reality is that sin will just lie to you and destroy you internally. Evidence of sin in one's life is the spiritual fruit that it produces... anger? guilt? shame? depression? envy? low self- esteem? self-exaltation?(ego)... etc. Us Christians are witnesses of Christ Himself THROUGH our testimony. Therefore we PREACH Christ crucified because of the debt that was paid IN THE SHEDDING OF BLOOD of a perfect, righteous and sinless person who didn't deserve death, instead we do... But OH WHAT AMAZING GRACE that was SHOWN on the cross! It's not that we are disrespecting and trying to shove "religion" down your throat. We PREACH (or "Annoy" as some people refer to it) to you THIS message because WE KNOW that it WILL set the captive free from the curse of sin which is death. Christ's resurrection PROVED that there IS something AFTER death awaiting us. that there IS an afterlife. There IS A RESURRECTION OF THE DEAD. But a resurrection towards what? Eternal life? or Eternal death? It's up to you to decide which one you want. May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
My Grandpa passed away yesterday on the 10th. He was a pastor, very devoted Christian is whole life. This song makes me think of him so much and reminds me that he is with such an amazing and loving God. I may sing this song at his memorial service soon. Thank you Skillet for such beautiful, heart felt music
Remember your GrandPa can't die, he will continue to be alive inside all the people he helped during his life, and inside your family, in your hearts and your memories. Death is not an end, it's a start for new lives that each death will feed
Skillet Lyrics "Stars" You spoke a word and life began Told oceans where to start and where to end You set in motion time and space But still you come and you call to me by name Still you come and you call to me by name If you can hold the stars in place You can hold my heart the same Whenever I fall away Whenever I start to break So here I am, lifting up my heart To the one who holds the stars The deepest depths, the darkest nights Can't separate, can't keep me from your sight I get so lost, forget my way But still you love and you don't forget my name If you can hold the stars in place You can hold my heart the same Whenever I fall away Whenever I start to break So here I am, lifting up my heart If you can calm the raging sea You can calm the storm in me You're never too far away You never show up too late So here I am, lifting up my heart To the one who holds the stars Your love has called my name What do I have to fear?

@@snakeeyes9246 WHY DOES EVERBODY TALK ABOUT GOD SONGS THEY MAKE AND SINGS ARE ABOUT LIFE, THIS IS ABOUT SOME FAMILY MEMBER LIKE MOTHER OR FATHER CAUSE A KID FEELS LIKE A LIFE IS STARTING WHEN HE SEES HIS PARENTAL FIGURE etc.
@@realahsokatano5046 name, its a name, life begins with a name, and mothers care for their children and if the child notices, its like she is a ruler, she controls everything, and when she dies, all memories get multiplied power because she is gone and he remebers it like that, like there was nothing without her, but then again i am possibly wrong, because i never met them to know an answer
My daughter passed away nine years ago and this song is so beautiful to me. It brings so much hope and speaks truth to my soul. Families are forever. Thanks, Skillet.
Iron sharpens iron we as human beings , "spirits made in heaven going through a human experience." Sharpen each other, through music, life's trials and kindness. God speaks through us to each other.
If you can hold the stars in place You can hold my heart the same Whenever I fall away Whenever I start to break So here I am, lifting up my heart If you can calm the raging sea You can calm the storm in me You're never too far away You never show up too late So here I am, lifting up my heart To the one who holds the stars
I am having a memorial service for my Mom today and she knew you guys pulled me through a lot. I'm honored to say that she was a believer and she is with our Lord and Savior. I'm adding your song to her song list. ❤
This is so cool! This video was made at my grandfather's log cabin. Grew up there since I was a little kid and now skillet is making videos in it! Crazy how life works sometimes!
Last week, I unexpectedly lost a close friend. Her and I would chat every morning about our day and every day after I got back from work. I was listening to this song yesterday, and I TRULY felt like I heard God say "I'm here, come cry on my shoulder, I wont leave." I sat there in tears, finally feeling like I was healed from my grief. If you EVER feel like God has left you behind, or that your pit of grief is too deep, it NEVER is to God. He is still there, and he ALWAYS will be.
I don’t care what y’all say; Non-religious people can love this band if they want to. Skillet isn’t only for Christians, they are for anyone no matter who they believe in.
It's good that non-religious people listen to Christian songs, with lyrics inspired by God, based on what the Bible teaches us, it shows. Songs like this are seeds planted in the heart and the decision to seek Christ is really a choice. He gives us the right to choose. God bless us Carla - Brazil
Personally,I’m Protestant, I believe they’re real, but I choose to believe nobody made me, nobody made me, me. That was all my doing. I make my choices and choose if I want something or not. God and Christ are there for people who need someone to rely on and believe in them, I don’t need that personally,

From a non-christian. We need more bands like Skillet which make precious music like this to worship and honor their God.
yeah, perfectly like the song "feel invicible", it is the coolest song
this song is dedicated to the wife of the singer
Would you be kind enough to teach me about your religion so I can write more lyrics for Skillet to sing about? I'm only looking for positive vibes and moral lessons. As Skillet's lyricist I wrote 'Stars' as a mixed combination of themes from Buddhism, Christianity, and Sunni religions.

Diana Smith I’m pretty sure they write they’re own songs if you do than sorry for this but yeah I’m pretty sure skillet writes they’re own songs
You spoke a word and life began
Told oceans where to start and where to end
You set in motion time and space
But still you come, and you call to me by name
But still you come, and you call to me by name
If you can hold the stars in place
You can hold my heart the same
Whenever I fall away
Whenever I start to break
So here I am lifting up my heart
To the one who holds the stars
The deepest depths, the darkest nights
Can't separate, can't keep me from your sight
I get so lost, forget my way
But still you love, and you don't forget my name
If you can hold the stars in place
You can hold my heart the same
Whenever I fall away
Whenever I start to break
So here I am lifting up my heart
If you can calm the raging sea
You can calm the storm in me
You're never too far away
You never show up too late
So here I am lifting up my heart
To the one who holds the stars
Your love has called my name
What do I have to fear?
What do I have to fear?
Your love has called my name
What do I have to fear?
What do I have to fear?
If you can hold the stars in place
You can hold my heart the same
Whenever I fall away
Whenever I start to break
So here I am lifting up my heart (lifting up my heart)
If you can calm the raging sea
You can calm the storm in me
You're never too far away
You never show up too late
So here I am lifting up my heart
To the one who holds the stars
You're the one who holds the stars

Very cool! God bless!
Lol, I always thought it's "what do I have to *feel* " XD Anyway, well done!
And people still think Skillet is satanic... -.-
"If You can hold the stars in place, You can hold my heart the same" I actually felt this while listening. Thank you Skillet.
This is a song that's hard for me to hear, but helps remind me of just how far I've come.
Today I have 4yrs 6mo clean time from a nasty pain pill addiction.
I used to lay in my shower, sick, crying out to God. "Save me or take me, please, I'm so sorry" and He did come for me. This song was one I would play on repeat for hours, sometimes days.
It wasn't immediate, because He knew I wasn't ready. But once I hit my knees, admitted my defeat and started to help myself, there He was. He had been there the whole time...
I am so thankful to have been saved. I love my God and I love this beautiful song. 💜
God bless you!!! You keep that courage with God forever!! As a person in recovery myself, I can proudly say God heals!! When the student is ready, the teacher will appear...
Blessings to you and prayers for your continued strength, Roxanne.
I'm going on 12 months clean, without the drug's. I love skillet, especially the song victorious. God can't help us untill we help ourselves. Listen to the songs victorious & save me 👍💖
Thank you so much for sharing. Here's to a lifetime of recovery. Keep up the good work Roxanne.❤️
Bless you in your journey, you've got this
I lost my wife last week. She was 39 and her birthday is next week. We were supposed to go on a family cruise to celebrate her 40th. I have been listening to this a lot. I feel I will always be broken, but this helps.
Am sorry for your loss I bet she was a wonderful friend and wife 😓😓
I'm so sorry I'll remember you in my prayers...God will give you the strength you need to endure because He is our strength!
Praying for the greatest Physician to bring healing, grace, rest and peace to your heart. The Lord draws near unto them of a broken heart.
Hey falcon sorry for your loss man we serve a big God that comforts us always....🙏🏽
We're all here for you brother
Lyrics
You spoke a word and life began
Told oceans where to start and where to end
You set in motion time and space
But still you come and you call to me by name
Still you come and you call to me by name
If you can hold the stars in place
You can hold my heart the same
Whenever I fall away
Whenever I start to break
So here I am, lifting up my heart
To the one who holds the stars
The deepest depths, the darkest nights
Can't separate, can't keep me from your sight
I get so lost, forget my way
But still you love and you don't forget my name
If you can hold the stars in place
You can hold my heart the same
Whenever I fall away
Whenever I start to break
So here I am, lifting up my heart
If you can calm the raging sea
You can calm the storm in me
You're never too far away
You never show up too late
So here I am, lifting up my heart
To the one who holds the stars
Your love has called my name
What do I have to fear?
What do I have to fear?
Your love has called my name
What do I have to fear?
What do I have to fear?
If you can hold the stars in place
You can hold my heart the same
Whenever I fall away
Whenever I start to break
So here I am, lifting up my heart
(Lifting up my heart)
If you can calm the raging sea
You can calm the storm in me
You're never too far away
You never show up too late
So here I am, lifting up my heart
To the one who holds the stars
You're the one who holds the stars
Daniel Dickey thanks you !!! 😊
Dark Vador meu amigo, muito obrigado
Daniel Dickey you're genius
thanks pal!
Daniel Dickey nice copy past
I find that this song brings me to my faith. I’m a recovering addict. Almost 6 years sober. God saved my life! Granted I worked hard for my sobriety but I kept faith that god would get me through the hell I was living and he did! This song touches my heart
God bless! 😁😁😁
God is good.
God conquered your addiction just keep that in mind and stay strong when tempted run away from it not to it.
Keep at it. You're an amazing human being . Never forget that always
Congrats! 7 months clean and sober myself. Keep your head up. Your not alone.
I'm not Christian but I absolutely love this band so much! You guys never fail to hit me right in the heart with your music 🖤🖤🖤
Who? They?
Viking Queen Maddy, Ever consider if this song is truth?
It is
That's the holy spirit hunny!
Keep an open mind Maddy. Pray God speaks to you more and more loudly...😀
I lost my house, three family members to COVID, and have faced financial hardship; but this song gets me through these times of uncertainty. God gives his fighters the toughest bout because he knows if Job can endure it, so can his champions.
May God contiune to comfort you dear❤
I love how God comforts us. I have definitely felt God comfort me through music. I pray you continue to feel Gods love and comfort through music. He is our rock and our fortress and he works all things for the good of those who love God and are called according to his purpose. He is close to the brokenhearted and he binds their wounds. Dont doubt for a minute he's not with you. He never leaves or forsakes us. Bless you brother.
This song help's me getting threw these days as well.
Sorry for that bro😭
Bro Robert: 😭💚🖖🏿💚💪🏿💚🙏🏿💚💚💚🇮🇱💚🪖💚🇺🇲💚🌹💚🌈💚🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈🌈💚🤑💚🥀💚Shalom to you and yours. Stay strong. Keep fighting for peace and joy!💚
This version of this song absolutely amazing no other words can describe it
Lich king ARTHAS i agree
Except stars.
DaSheepKiller 😂👌
Lich king ARTHAS
I know right?!
skillet if u see this my grandfather has now gone to a better place and I can stop watching this
Christian band or not, this group is seriously one of the best musicians out there, put a lot of so called rock bands to shame
Yessir indeed!!!
Steve Heeres most Christian bands are pretty mediocre at best but these guys are great
ua-cam.com/video/0lk4NlqJlKY/v-deo.html
Gotta hear this track !
Oh yeah.
@@timv82 completely disagree some of the most talented musicians around are singing for Jesus but no one wants to give them the credit they are due because they are Christian artists..case in point Need to breathe, Lecrae, For King and Country ..I could go on
I'm not a Christian, but I absolutely love these guys. This acoustic version of Stars is beautiful. Thank you, Skillet, for making some of the greatest music I've ever heard.
Why aren't you a Christian?
John DeBord, does it matter if Skqte is Christian? We can all agree that Skillet is amazing.
John DeBord I don't practice any religion, but that's not my point.
chikoritacutie They're incredible. I've been listening to their songs all night, haha
Well dude god gave us free will, to follow him or not to, *christian* he gave us a brain a body and a soul, we choose what to do with them. after that, its up for the person to choose what to do @John Debord
Imagine all the millions of people and God knows us all by our names, hears our prayers and answers all of them. Sometimes his answer is yes and sometimes it’s, be still and know I am working in your life. Amazing grace!
This is literally one of the reasons why I love skillet not only they are Christians like myself but they speak from the heart everytime they sing a song and it goes to god. This song represents everything that god is so wonderful to all of us no matter if ur a Christian or not💯
"He who counts the stars and calls them by their names, is in no danger of forgetting His own children."
~ Charles Spurgeon.
the lyrics are so deep
ua-cam.com/video/4Pv8FJkwnuc/v-deo.html&lc=Ugy6oXZlzamjYsC6Rfl4AaABAg
Thats a message that gives hope, without being yet another "chocolate and God" quote.
I feel so bad for you
"Bless you, thank you for posting! "May the Lord of peace give you peace in everyway". 1 thess 3:16
Beautiful 🙂
Wow Skillet delivers GOLD yet again, love it!
Kevin Condna no they don't
Julian Giron you are right. they deliver diamond.

I've been struggling with my mental health recently, and I just can't seem to control myself, my anxiety has forced me to hide from the real world and forget about everything. But whenever I hear this song, something inside me hits me. I know some people aren't big believers but this song impacts me to continue to look up in front of me and continue to have faith to move on. This fight will not be easy but I believe that God and in the name of Jesus, I will find that light at the end of the tunnel. This band no matter what will be my favorite, been a Skillet fan for countless years and this band has helped me get through my social anxiety with these powerful songs.
I encourage everyone whatever battle you are facing, do not give up and lose hope, the world may be sick and so many people are cruel but that does not mean you should continue to be a shadow to everyone that admires you. Everyone that knows you are rooting for you and it would not be the same for them if it wasn't without you. No matter how significant your battle is, I believe you will overcome it and reach the light and get out of your shadows.
Matthew 11:28-30 - God lightens your burdens. - Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.
Never give up and continue to be you, always. ❤️🙏
Thank you for this, seriously. Sometimes I feel so lost and far away and there is a constant battle in my mind. God Bless everyone and all those battling something.🤍✝️
Absolutely, God bless you. I walk with God and heavens everyday in this messed up cruel world in my life. I have nothing left to fear when it comes to myself with God by my side. There's nothing left any person can do to me unless the only thing left is to take my life. That's about it 😂.... Amen ✝️🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Bless you and your beautiful soul :) ❤
True. Skillet always helps me keep my depression at ease.
I can't stop screaming when I heard the lyrics!!!!!
Aaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh!
Goosebumps! To God be all the Glory!!
For those who are broken... You're not alone, there's so many people who feel pain like you, but don't worry, even if you don't believe in God, there's always a way to keep it up. Don't surrender, don't doubt, you will be fine, you will be okay, God loves you all, and we all can make it.
Thank you, I lost my grandpa a couple of days ago and my family is need of prayers.
@@Princess36621 Sorry. Listen to Skillet. They make some good songs like this one. I hope you feel better.
@@realahsokatano5046 Thank you for telling me that.
are u for real omg most ridiculous thing ive heard sine i was about 6
Thank you!
I love the message in this song. God is never, EVER far from you, even when it feels like He is, which is what I'm going through, i feel SO distant from God yet, I know He's right there.
Take comfort I the fact that the family of Christ is undergoing the same. Let's pray for each other. And like the woman with the issue of blood with faith. God bless you, friend.
I have always love skillet. From “Monster” to “Feel Invincible”. But this song has made me cry in the past. Usually I don’t cry, but it is just the vibes that make me push on. Hopes to people who have had hardships in their lives know that God loves you even you don’t believe in him. YOU ARE NOT A MISTAKE!!!! YOU Are A GIFT!!!
God bless you ❤️
YOU are making me cry right now.
"If You can calm the raging sea, You can calm the storm in me. You're never too far away, You never show up too late."

Gotta hear this track !!
Just listening again and again for this.
That is my fave part@
You should look at one of the comment on falling in the black lyrics one of the lyrics is funny 😂
@@sandramiddleton743 mine too
THIS version is the one that should've been recorded on the album originally IMO. I can't get enough of this version...
Jacob Nyhart agreed.. i prefer this version
Really. I prefer the original.
Skillet you guys have no idea how powerful u all are. Your music has brought me out of depression from loosing loved ones to suicide and has made me feel stronger than I've ever been in my life. I love, love, love all your lyrics. And I absolutely love how even though your music is Christian based and I don't follow any sect of Christianity the words you all sing touch me from the bottom of my heart. I love how no matter a person's faith your music brings us all together. Thank you for your music.
There's a moment near the end, it doesnt matter how much I prepare, I cry and I can't hold it in. What a beautiful movie.
I read the book "The Shack" seven years after my brother was murdered. It brought me out of the valley that I was stuck in. Then the movie came out and this song says it all. It speaks volumes to to the healing.
Im not religious, but even if you are or not, its imposible to say that their songs arent so uplifters. That's why they are my favourite band!!
God is not religion buddy, he is reality
i do wrestling on fridays and the song MONSTER is my intro
I was in a similar boat two years ago. I was raised in the church, went every Sunday and youth group on Wednesday. I couldnt find myself believing in a God, especially not in the modern world, not with how life is, not with the church either. God chases us as individuals and Hope's to nurture the relationship as such. I pray he continues to pull at your heart. I pray that you see a beauty in life worth protecting, I pray you realize that's God working in you. Religion isnt perfect, the church isnt perfect, people aren't perfect, but God is.
When people say it's a personal relationship they dont even begin to do it justice. I would love to speak further on the topic with you if you'd like to chat message me. Either way I know his work with you isnt done, I'm glad skillet has made an impact on your life and I'm even more excited that it has stayed with you. I know I made one hell of a comment but I truly hope you give it a read.
@@notjunior5816 we could very well live within his eye our whole universe
@@joshuacarter6420 Exactly you get that this relationship we have is not a religion but the most serious relationship we will ever have and honestly I wish I could help others see that this relationship is much more to us than just going to church it's a true blessing everyday within my life and I just hope someday I can help someone else be apart of this blessing
My favorite song! 🎶🎵
I love you SKILLET! 😘
Aliz Channel I love Skillet too but my favoutite songs are rise and seek of it.
I love how skillet can go straight from a Heavy rock band to a to a band with so much Melody it’s mine blowing
It's awesome is what it is.
Agree
yessssss
Yeah, I can listen to The Resistance and then this, Stars, without skipping a beat, they're both so beautiful
Variety is the spice of life
So Here I Am Lifting Up My Heart To The One Who Holds The Stars
Remember Christianity isn't a religion. Its a relationship with Jesus Christ. Praise the lord. And allow all our hearts to be softened to recieve you and accept your grace
Amen brother
true!
Amen
Yes. Amen🙏😇❤️

Gotta hear this track !
This was one of the only songs my grandma liked from this band and she really loved it. My grandma had a major stroke in my arms in March of 2019 and died pretty horrifically 4 days after that and I continued playing this song through those last couple days and after she died this song was a God-send with processing the grief through that horrible experience. I still listen to this song when life just feels hard. God is good and I strongly feel music is something that can help us with our walk with the Lord.
I'm not at all Religious but I've always admired and greatly respect how people can find comfort, strength and meaning in life by simply believing in a higher power. It's a beautiful thing.
Whenever i listen to this song, it always reminds me of how well off i am. I live in a rural area of the UK away from serious crime. I have a loving family and amazing friends. My life is so close to perfect, and whenever I listen to this, I'm reminded of how well God has treated me. Recently, i felt like my life was empty, so i prayed. God answered.
I know not everyone believes, but i believe that everyone should know he still cares for you even if you don't know him yet.❤
I'm not religious at all, but it shouldn't matter. These guys rock and some of their songs have saved my life... Even though I'm not Christian I'm thankful for what they have done for me
williamf342 this song isn't about "religion" it's about having a. RELATIONSHIP with Jesus Christ... they speak about real life issues that every day christians endure... they are a Christian band and they love what they sing... glad to hear they've helped you ❤️
WHa a relationship with Jesus? Sorry bra I don't swing that way! XD
Beautiful testimony! 💙 their songs have helped me through dark times and this song just reaffirms that He calls us all by name and in our darkest times, He is there.
williamf342 I'm atheist and I love skillet. Lol. Don't know if that is being hypocritical haha
Krista Baugh Ur not alone XD
I lost my grandma last year. She helped a lot for my parents to raise me. Listening to this, I can see her face again. I'm afraid that after some years I will forget her voice. God, please, take care of my grandma, and give her a seat at your table in heaven.
I'm so sorry man, I know it's hard but keep on going and don't think about it too much. Life is hard but also full of beautiful things to discover and do. Keep on living 👊🏻
Im so sorry, I lost my grandma too i know how it feels
@@jurgenhanewald673 So sorry for u , she´s at a better place now
Im sorry bro im bout lo lose my grandma and y lost my grandpa and my brother cause of cancer... i know how it feel cause if forgot my brothers voice and is not happy to think bout it
I'm very sorry to hear that in sure God is taking great care of her
This song was one of my son's favorite as well as one of mine. He passed away on 2-12-2021. He was 18. This song has really helped me through.
I'm sorry brother 😔
O.........m......g............ I'm sorry for your lost
I'm so sorry, just know that he's with you in spirit and you'll see him again when it's your time to go home!❤️
Hope your doing alright man you are in my prayers
You’re not alone and I understand your struggle. I just lost my brother on 12/12/2021 and he was 22. I’m so sorry to hear about your son, I understand how tragic it can be. I hope you can find peace and strength through it all 💕 may he Rest In Peace
During this time in history, things seem out of control. But, the one who holds the Stars is watching over you and me, and is turning everything for our good

LYRICS ! (YOU'RE WELCOME)
"Stars"
You spoke a word and life began
Told oceans where to start and where to end
You set in motion time and space
But still you come and you call to me by name
Still you come and you call to me by name
If you can hold the stars in place
You can hold my heart the same
Whenever I fall away
Whenever I start to break
So here I am, lifting up my heart
To the one who holds the stars
The deepest depths, the darkest nights
Can't separate, can't keep me from your sight
I get so lost, forget my way
But still you love and you don't forget my name
If you can hold the stars in place
You can hold my heart the same
Whenever I fall away
Whenever I start to break
So here I am, lifting up my heart
If you can calm the raging sea
You can calm the storm in me
You're never too far away
You never show up too late
So here I am, lifting up my heart
To the one who holds the stars
Your love has called my name
What do I have to fear?
What do I have to fear?
Your love has called my name
What do I have to fear?
What do I have to fear?
If you can hold the stars in place
You can hold my heart the same
Whenever I fall away
Whenever I start to break
So here I am, lifting up my heart
(Lifting up my heart)
If you can calm the raging sea
You can calm the storm in me
You're never too far away
You never show up too late
So here I am, lifting up my heart
To the one who holds the stars
You're the one who holds the stars
Tygoo.SaiyajiN love it thanks uuuuu
don't calim my thanks, i already know them by heart.
Thank you
Lyrics
Your the man 😊
I made my first solo trip to south america about a week ago and this song helped me to remember that God cares about therefore He is with me, when i was a teenager i suffered from panic attacks and anxiety, the thought of diying was constantly in my head, so i wanted to be in my house, with my parents all the time, cuz i felt safe however i was getting worse but God helped me and deliver me from that fear, and with this trip I saw the hand of God with me the whole time even when those thoughts wanted to come back He was there reassuring me that everything was gonna be fine and so it did! God is Good all the time!
I love this song. It tells me that God is all-powerful and nothing will happen if He doesn't want it to. Thank you Skillet for writing such a powerful and inspiring song. God bless you!
This song speaks to me on so many levels. Thank you God for using your people to comfort and bring peace to people. Beautiful voice and message.
☺👍👍👍👍
that feel when u can't stop listening to a song!
maher khadhri yeah right? :,)
maher khadhri I agree
I lost my father 2 months ago, this song just let me let it all out. Skillet always hits me in the feels
Jackie Faith, you're not alone I lost both of my grandfathers one passed away due to cardiovascular shock back in 2011 right after my graduation parties and another grandfather passed away due to lung cancer back in 2019, I mean every time that I listen to this song it helps me think about both of them and both of them always love me no matter what.
Сочувствую вам,потерять родного человека это действительно тяжело
How’s everyone doing
This song is getting me through a lot right now... God is great
AMEN
Your love is calling my name what do i have to fear🙏

Mă mir că te văd aici
My father passed away in May of a failed kidney transplant and my grandma got diagnosed with leukemia today. I was led right to this song. They are and were both wonderful children of God and I fall away so often but I know in the end I'm held by the one who holds the stars.
Amazing song, it perfectly shows God's Love and how we can develop a heartfelt longings to receive it. Thank you Skillet for this gift!
I love this song. This version is especially cool. So glad that there is such an awesome CHRISTIAN rock band that I can listen to.
Kate Pearson have you tried Disciple, Set for the Fall, Nine Lashes, As We Ascend, and Switchfoot? They're all Christian and absolutely fabulous. Just a thought! God bless!
Becka Imnottelling what are some other Christian rock bands
+Phenixrider132 Have you heard of all the bands I listed? I like Red, some Project 86, Kutless, We as Human, Scarlet White, and the Letter Black are all really good
Kate Pearson if you only listen to them because they are "a Christian band" then ur missing out. there's so many bads with amazing songs. skillet is mainly a rock band, inspire by their believes. not the other way arround.
Alex Re Actually, Skillet calls themselves a Christian band. I've been to a concert of theirs where they professed that, as well as seen many interviews. There's nothing wrong with listening to music that agrees with your beliefs, especially since a lot of rock and metal doesn't necessarily concur with Scripture. Please allow people to enjoy music that agrees with scriptural principles because it's hard to find, and if that's all people want to listen to, please respect that that's the music they enjoy!
I cant get through this song without crying. May god bless your band. "Your Love has called my name. What do I have to fear, What do I have to fear." Trust in the Lord.
PB Broz John (the lead singer) Said he wrote this song for his dead mother because of cancer and i cried because my grandma died couple days ago and i related to it
PB Broz me either.
Es un crimen que UA-cam aun no tenga la opción "me encanta". Esta obra de arte merece millones. Sin duda Skillet es una de las mejores bandas cristianas de todos los tiempos.
Robert Nuñez tienes razón , y encontré un español :v
Yo soy ateo y escucho esta banda:'v,, aunque no es del todo cristiana la verdad
Robert Nuñez son hermosos ;u;
Bueno me encanta esta banda, a través de esta banda llegue a los caminos de Dios!! y soy "cristiana"
Dey A. A. De Calzadilla que bueno que por medio de ellos llegaste a Dios .. Sigue no dejes de buscarlo y amarlo .. Dios es bueno y es lo mejor que podemos tener en nuestras vidas .. Yo igual soy cristiana de años .. Desde mi niñez gracias a mis padres
I love all of skillet's songs, but this might be my favorite of all of them. Simply beautiful.
☺👍👍👍 👍
I just recently lost my dad. One of my biggest memories with him was going to your guys concert. It was my first and last with my dad. After that night this was our song. No matter where we were going we always listened to this. This was our song and everytime I listen to it, it brings back all of those memories and I wnated to thank you guys for this. He loved you guys and always listend to your music. Everytime a new album came out bought. There was a night when I was younger he was feeling down and he picked me up and slow danced with me to the song Lucy. I just wanted to say thank you again you guys are amazing🥺♥️
I may not have known him or you but he sounds amazing a truly amazing father may he find peace
Lost my pop in March to Cancer. I mourn still, but I look for signs of him and he will get me through this difficult time in life. Also losing my wife of 10 years. When it rains, it pours. Man I need some friends.
Ezzedine Itani I’m so sorry for both of your losses. I lost my dad may 10th it has been hitting really hard lately. We were told by the doctors he was doing good and he would be going home in a couple of day. He was talking to my brother and told him he loved him. 45 minutes later we got a call saying he may not make it and me my brother and sister sat around him and held is hand while he passes away.
@@kianatingley7368 Very tough to witness. I had to watch my kids in the car (covid was just starting to come to US) and didnt see him flatline, but went to say farewell to him after and feel his warm hand for the last time. Oh my God the tears I feel them. Thank you for your kind response and condolences from my end.
Ezzedine Itani I hope you family is doing well. Trust I’m was Jesus is doing. He always has a plan!
You spoke a word and life began
Told oceans where to start and where to end
You set in motion time and space
But still You come and You call to me by name
But still You come and You call to me by name
If You can hold the stars in place
You can hold my heart the same
Whenever I fall away
Whenever I start to break
So here I am, lifting up my heart
To the one who holds the stars
The deepest depths, the darkest nights
Can't separate, can't keep me from Your sight
I get so lost, forget my way
But still You love and You don't forget my name
If You can hold the stars in place
You can hold my heart the same
Whenever I fall away
Whenever I start to break
So here I am, lifting up my heart
If You can calm the raging sea
You can calm the storm in me
You're never too far…
Best band I've ever heard....
All Glory to the Jesuscrist...
i have the lyrics on my wall with comments on basically every line relating to something that happened in my life or where that specific line helped me get through a difficult time. this is genuenly is what gives me faith.

Doctor Strange Well besides creating thousands of bot UA-cam accounts to watch this video, there isn't much I can do. good song though.
I needed to hear this today. It just kinda felt like a hand reached out and lifted my face up.
Amy Floyd r u okay now?;_; don t lie
yes
music like this gives you that push when you need it. lifts your spirits. good to know you feel better :)
I totally agree.
K
Through my mistakes, through my problems, through my lack of understanding, through my pain and my sufferings and crying. I'm not a Christian but honestly, I need god more now than ever. Make sure to talk to God..
I first heard them when I wasn't doing too well, my grandpa had just died, and I was pretty depressed and kinda suicidal tbh. The first song I found was the last night and it helped me a lot. I'm not quite as depressed now, but it's still a fight that's ongoing. I miss you grandpa.
God bless you and her

CPalicpic12 really have you heard monster :D lol very demonic :D
John Hutchinson No, it's not. How do you not know this. They are a Christian band.
DarkVWolf i haven't lisent to that many songs of them ( monster hero and like 2 others)
Hey everyone. I’ve been diagnosed with depression. This song makes me feel a little better. I have faith God will make things better. For all of you who feel sad/hopeless, just trust him, he loves you. Don’t lose faith. :)
Jorge Esteva I have it, too. I wanna say that it’s ok for us to use medicine alongside The Word. It’s wrongfully demonized by some and I just wanted to give you that encouragement in case you ever felt pressured by others not to pursue medical help
Depression isn't a disease or a sickness, it's something that everyone struggles with from time to time, it's part of being human. The society and our culture just uses it as an excuse to be sad, take pills, not work and push our responsibilities away from us
We preach Christ crucified because WE KNOW that it is the message and the POWER to TRANSFORM one's mind and heart back towards the Living God. All sin will do is deceive us into thinking that WE can take and play the role of God in our own lives but the reality is that sin will just lie to you and destroy you internally. Evidence of sin in one's life is the spiritual fruit that it produces... anger? guilt? shame? depression? envy? low self- esteem? self-exaltation?(ego)... etc. Us Christians are witnesses of Christ Himself THROUGH our testimony. Therefore we PREACH Christ crucified because of the debt that was paid IN THE SHEDDING OF BLOOD of a perfect, righteous and sinless person who didn't deserve death, instead we do... But OH WHAT AMAZING GRACE that was SHOWN on the cross!
It's not that we are disrespecting and trying to shove "religion" down your throat. We PREACH (or "Annoy" as some people refer to it) to you THIS message because WE KNOW that it WILL set the captive free from the curse of sin which is death. Christ's resurrection PROVED that there IS something AFTER death awaiting us. that there IS an afterlife. There IS A RESURRECTION OF THE DEAD. But a resurrection towards what? Eternal life? or Eternal death? It's up to you to decide which one you want. May the grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you.
My Grandpa passed away yesterday on the 10th. He was a pastor, very devoted Christian is whole life. This song makes me think of him so much and reminds me that he is with such an amazing and loving God. I may sing this song at his memorial service soon. Thank you Skillet for such beautiful, heart felt music
ZeppelinLover549 you made me cry such beutifull words 😭
He's in a better place now and u will c him again😁
Remember your GrandPa can't die, he will continue to be alive inside all the people he helped during his life, and inside your family, in your hearts and your memories. Death is not an end, it's a start for new lives that each death will feed
R.i.p to your grandfather 😢 he's in heaven now with God so he is now eternaly happy :)
I'm sorry for you grandpa, he is in a better place now, remeber God will always be by your side,God bless you.

Skillet Lyrics
"Stars"
You spoke a word and life began
Told oceans where to start and where to end
You set in motion time and space
But still you come and you call to me by name
Still you come and you call to me by name
If you can hold the stars in place
You can hold my heart the same
Whenever I fall away
Whenever I start to break
So here I am, lifting up my heart
To the one who holds the stars
The deepest depths, the darkest nights
Can't separate, can't keep me from your sight
I get so lost, forget my way
But still you love and you don't forget my name
If you can hold the stars in place
You can hold my heart the same
Whenever I fall away
Whenever I start to break
So here I am, lifting up my heart
If you can calm the raging sea
You can calm the storm in me
You're never too far away
You never show up too late
So here I am, lifting up my heart
To the one who holds the stars
Your love has called my name
What do I have to fear?
What do I have to fear?
Your love has called my name
What do I have to fear?
What do I have to fear?
If you can hold the stars in place
You can hold my heart the same
Whenever I fall away
Whenever I start to break
So here I am, lifting up my heart
(Lifting up my heart)
If you can calm the raging sea
You can calm the storm in me
You're never too far away
You never show up too late
So here I am, lifting up my heart
To the one who holds the stars
You're the one who holds the stars
i think it goes like this ...
" If you can hold the stars in place
You can know* my heart the same "
skillet's trending I'm so happy right now
Wait, skillet is STILL together?! Awesome!!!!!
They have been for over 20 years. Nothing can break the bond between themselves and God.
@@snakeeyes9246 WHY DOES EVERBODY TALK ABOUT GOD SONGS THEY MAKE AND SINGS ARE ABOUT LIFE, THIS IS ABOUT SOME FAMILY MEMBER LIKE MOTHER OR FATHER CAUSE A KID FEELS LIKE A LIFE IS STARTING WHEN HE SEES HIS PARENTAL FIGURE etc.
Btw singers are married and they have 2 kids now isn t that cute
@@vojinmiljus5600 One of the lyrics is "You spoke a word and life began." That's about God. and "You set in motion time and space."
@@realahsokatano5046 name, its a name, life begins with a name, and mothers care for their children and if the child notices, its like she is a ruler, she controls everything, and when she dies, all memories get multiplied power because she is gone and he remebers it like that, like there was nothing without her, but then again i am possibly wrong, because i never met them to know an answer
This was my wedding song almost 7 years ago now and it is still my favorite song. Such a powerful and amazing song
My daughter passed away nine years ago and this song is so beautiful to me. It brings so much hope and speaks truth to my soul. Families are forever. Thanks, Skillet.
So sorry for your loss
Ryan Daritey thanks, Ryan.
Ashley Atiyeh - thanks Ashley! ☺️

Iron sharpens iron we as human beings , "spirits made in heaven going through a human experience." Sharpen each other, through music, life's trials and kindness. God speaks through us to each other.
If you can hold the stars in place
You can hold my heart the same
Whenever I fall away
Whenever I start to break
So here I am, lifting up my heart
If you can calm the raging sea
You can calm the storm in me
You're never too far away
You never show up too late
So here I am, lifting up my heart
To the one who holds the stars
i love you skillet😍👌❤
Kevin Serrano ME TOO 💖
Kevin Serrano それな、声が好きやわ
This song was one of the songs playing when my son passed away at 18 years of age three weeks ago. This song will always mean a lot to me!
God bless you, be strong ❤️! your son is in the Sky with God
I am having a memorial service for my Mom today and she knew you guys pulled me through a lot. I'm honored to say that she was a believer and she is with our Lord and Savior. I'm adding your song to her song list. ❤
How are you doing now?
Thank you God for giving me a child.
I really love this song. Whenever I'm having a bad day I listen to this song to just relax have some time for myself. 💖💖💖 Skillet is the best 💖💖💖
This is so cool! This video was made at my grandfather's log cabin. Grew up there since I was a little kid and now skillet is making videos in it! Crazy how life works sometimes!
directorgtr really cool!
Thats the most beautiful Song i have ever heard
GOD IS PRESENT IN THIS SONG
No importa la Religión ,idioma ni color de piel solo sé que me encanta todas las canciones de Skillet 👏👏👍👍👍👍👍👍👍y esta es mi favorito😊😃👋👋
Si te gusta el Metal cristiano escucha Stryper y Strike 3 muy buenas bandas
That's so true
☺👍👍👍👍

Buenas recomendaciones
stryper es catolico@@GamePlay-nd9yb
coolest female drummer ever.
nice song skillet.
Last week, I unexpectedly lost a close friend. Her and I would chat every morning about our day and every day after I got back from work. I was listening to this song yesterday, and I TRULY felt like I heard God say "I'm here, come cry on my shoulder, I wont leave." I sat there in tears, finally feeling like I was healed from my grief. If you EVER feel like God has left you behind, or that your pit of grief is too deep, it NEVER is to God. He is still there, and he ALWAYS will be.
I can't stop not listening to it I listen to it more than 10 times just this evening I love it
I don’t care what y’all say; Non-religious people can love this band if they want to. Skillet isn’t only for Christians, they are for anyone no matter who they believe in.
Yep Jesus Christ belongs to the unbelievers. As he said himself "I didn't come for the healthy I came for the sick and broken"
@@Benfiester I know I needed to respond to this comment. Didn’t know what to say, but you said exactly what was needed to be said. Amen!
@@dillon7832 "Get use to different"- Jesus Christ (The Chosen)
It's good that non-religious people listen to Christian songs, with lyrics inspired by God, based on what the Bible teaches us, it shows. Songs like this are seeds planted in the heart and the decision to seek Christ is really a choice. He gives us the right to choose. God bless us Carla - Brazil
Personally,I’m Protestant, I believe they’re real, but I choose to believe nobody made me, nobody made me, me. That was all my doing. I make my choices and choose if I want something or not. God and Christ are there for people who need someone to rely on and believe in them, I don’t need that personally,
This is what I love about Skillet. They’re music can be interpreted however you want.
This song is so good, every time they say “If you can hold the stars in place, then you can hold my heart the same” makes me want to cry 🥲🥲🥲
