Music video by Matthew West performing The Motions.
I’m listening to this in 2024.
Amen! Same! This song came out the same year I got saved really means a lot be blessed
I'm his newest fan. lol
5-12-24 was just singing in spirit and had to find the song! I pray the song encouraged you last month.
I was abused for several years and finally spoke up on may 17th, 2009...this past March I finally felt true healing take place in my heart. The Lord is so amazing! He lifted me from the pit and brought me back to life.
Hopefully your better now (and the abusive person), but im responding after eight years...
God bless you 999 trillion times more. May you be blessed so richly and supernaturally all because you listened to your heart. Gods love and passion for you is just the start. The start of something greater.
I’m sorry what you been through man I didn’t get a real life father figure until I was six yes my dad was in jail and never cared about me soo I basically live with my mom and my adopted dad but to me we got along just any other father and son but we have are ups and downs mostly the downs I don’t listen to positive stuff cause I’m 22 but I’m trying to fix my relationship with my family god bless you man and your family take care don’t do drugs and stay a firm believer in the lord I love you my Christ brother
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤🎉🎉🎉🙏🏽🙏🏽 Prasie God, for your Standing up and getting out!!
Praise jesus!!
My wife just passed away today from cancer. I wish the whole world could hear your song at her service.
Tracy Higgins so sorry for your loss
I am so sorry...I just lost my grandmother a few months ago. Another reminder that THIS life is NOT the end!! If we believe in Jesus Christ as our Savior as God's Son, the ONLY way to get to heaven, we can rest assured knowing that when we die, we are in His presence forever.
I lost my uncle last Saturday, I’m sorry for your loss, he loved Jesus Christ and has opened my eyes a bit and is starting to seak into the lord, I pray god has give you strength and you are healing, godbless.
God bless you @Tracy Higgins. God loves you.
Hang in there 🙏
God used this song to not only get me back into church, but also to let me have a personal relationship with Him. It will always be one of the biggest blessings of my life.
11 years 👏👏👏
Not just going through the motions in 2024. I wish everyone in the world could hear this song because it’s truly beautiful
I have wasted my talents so far in my life. No more. I’m going to start posting songs that glorify Christ. I would greatly appreciate prayers as I begin this new journey in my music.
Yay
Trevor Hunt I will definitely pray for you !
I’ll watch all your songs from now on man. Praying for you. Hit it big for Jesus, not yourself!!
Trevor Hunt a,en
In everything we do we do it with Christ ❤️ May our God lead you
who else is watching this during covid, I always heard this song but never knew the words.
I am.
I know all the words
This song means so much to me but breaks me too. My ex husband had this song played at his baptism to then leave me 6 years later. Bittersweet but I love ❤️ this song still... and miss my ex husband every day despite the fact he’s moved on and re-married. I forgive him and can focus 💯% on Jesus now.
Me
I am watching
I was diagnosed in December 2009 with leukemia (AML) and went through chemo and full body radiation treatments. It took me a year and half to get my immunity levels back to normal. I survived with the lesson that I learned and pass on to my patients. It's not a question of WHY this has happened, but if you know Jesus as your Savior it will be the question of WHO will be with you as you go through what I call the "Valley of Uncertainty". I had been a Christian since my surrender to God's son since 1978 and I knew He was there with me during those rough days knowing with an assured certainty that whether I lived or died, I would still be in His presence - nothing would have changed.
God wouldn't let him lose his vocals
Yep, our Father works his plan for all of us.
That's because he isn't done praising our Lord with his wonderful voice (and thank God for that because his song Mended really spoke to me).
Rodney Noel true
Indeed. The Great Deceiver may have thought, "If I remove the gift of his voice given to him by God, he'll have neither the means nor the motive to praise God," but God's response was likely something along the lines of, "Not on my infinite watch."
so true
This song hit my heart ❤ strongly. Back in 2009 I was falling away, becoming a lukewarm Christian. I went to church going through the motions, but feeling further from my JESUS. God moved me and my family to Idaho. It took a couple of years but I found a church that preached TRUTH. I am now walking stronger in the Lord Jesus, and love 💘 being in His service. (Growing in the knowledge and grace of Jesus Christ is a daily experience).
This was the first song that I memorized as a kid listening to the radio. It is the most applicable song I have ever heard. Thank you Jesus for Matthew West!
same
God is forever faithful to his people. God bless Matthew West and his family.😀💖💐
Typical Subscriber same here and I still love it
Typical Subscriber Omg same
Typical Subscriber me too.
This song is so powerfully relevant for Christian's. Life can be so ritualistic and mundane you're literally going through the motions waiting for theat heavenly spark to bring meaning to life. I pray God gives me that passion for him. Thank you Matthew West for this important reminder.
Exactly I know what you mean. This song 🎧 reminds me of all the horrible times in the hospital 🏥 when I had to go through brain 🧠 surgeries. I honestly believe it’s because of Christian music 🎶 that I am still alive today.
I don't understand how this song about Christ is in the hundred-thousands but music exploiting sin is at the charts.
Even in 2024. This song still hold so much power. Thank you Jesus for Matthew West.
I'd heard this song many times, even knew the lyrics. I never knew the story behind it. Being chronically ill and facing a major organ transplant. This really struck me today.
May God heal you completely. 🙏🙌❤️
I DON'T WANNA GO THROUGH THE MOTIONS EITHER....Song is so strong
Osh Johnson
This song is really strong
Tare's Me Up 😭😭😭
me too! im going through them already tho..
When I had my problem when I was about to go have my surgery hiatus hernia surgery repair
And I had to go through my motions
It wasn’t a guarantee surgery
Cause your dealing with the heart ❤️ liver intestines
Organs etc
This happened
June 8th 2021
Finally came
And going through my motions
What if I wake up during the surgery
What if they accidentally cut a organ and bleed 🩸 to death
What if I made it and but had infection and had to redo it
And when they were wheeling me down
Going through it again
What if I wake up during it
What if they accidentally cut a organ and me bleed 🩸 to death
Then all I can remember is the nurse saying we want you to put your head here
Then I was out God was right there with the surgeon
God wasn’t going to let me die
Now since it came loose
Have to go through another scope
Then referral
Then my choice surgery
I heard this song travelling this May, didnt catch who or what the title was. Little did I know what I was getting ready to go through. Wife had already walked away June of 14 three states away with my two girls. Lost my house and July 7th like lightning I had a Major depressive episode and became suicidal. I thought I was losing my mind because of my medication prescibed for depression was affecting my undiagnosed bipolar too. I prayed and cried and prayed and so on. For two months. And by the end of that my diagnoses is Major depression disorder, Anxiety disorder, rapid cycling bipolar type 1, borderline personality disorder. Im not here still because of my power. I couldnt stay in that place one second alone. Today I heard the song and it reminded me of me. He has shown me signs and grace. Now Im being patient enough to let his path and plan unfold for me.
The Lord will lift you up, no matter the diagnose you've been told. it is not over with a disease, in God everything is possible, being delibered from these illnesses that affect your emotions. if nobody trust you God does, He has a plan Jeremiah 29 11
Wow
God bless you
God bless u
He is with u
nice song
Anyone remember Audio Adrenaline?
A great Christian Band.
The lead singer had to stop singing, because otherwise he would lose his voice or something like that.
Check out the song Goodbye, by Audio Adrenaline.
It's so sad.
I'm so glad Matthew West is okay.
He's a great person.
9 years
Yeah He overcome his illness by his faith in God though even good and bad times came to our lives we just grateful always...
he means that he doesn't want to just act like he is a christian... he wants to actually be one. and follow through with everything that god has set out for him.
Had been a complacent Christian for years. It was easy and it was good enough for me at the time. Last November a good friend of mine (coupled w/ the Holy Spirit of course) pulled me out of that mess . . . and the best part is that she had no idea she did anything.
Tired of going through the motions need a change thank you God for showing me this years ago. Ready for revival in Jesus name!
2024 and this song never grow old. Still my favorite. Thank you Lord for Matthew West 🙏
You know what? God knows his people! Amen!
Yes, God knows everything. Your name fascinates me. Is it possible you're posting this overseas. Just wondering.
@@donmayer58 Believe so
said really did come true! The rest of them will too because he is God, and how Awesome he is! I've learned that when I am really trying,and give him it all,he listens to me,he answers my prayers! I can't change the world but I can change myself.We all need to have this attitude.
To all who read this, whether you are broken and hurting, or life is going great: you are loved. You are unique, full of talent and incomprehendible possibility. You are fearfully and wonderfully made! And always remember this: YOU ARE NEVER ALONE! Jesus is there, for you, 24/7, no matter what!
Ephesians 2:10. Created BY Christ FOR good works. We cannot believe without seeing the change in our lives. We can't just live by the "do not"'s, but focus our eyes on the Lord. Love is more than a feeling, but a choice.
So true !
Great important truth, I've been focusing more on sin than loving others, love them, and God will work in you to root out your sin, especially habitual.
I lead worship at the Oakridge Desciple house. It is a Christian based addiction house. My brother is in it and is about to graduate but this song is their FAVORITE song. People that go through the motions are in greater danger than those who dont know anything about God. If you are going through the motions and thing you hav a relationship w/ christ, you probably never will realize the truth. You arent gonna fix a problem if you dont know the problem is there in the first place.
@Birdmom121 I totally agree with you. I'm part of the youth of America and right now I can see a lot of us kids are not living the way we should. I hope God comes soon and I know I won't have his blood on my hands because I am trying to help lead my friends to Christ. I know I dont do the saving. He does. Thanks Matthew.
I used to sing this as an unbeliever before Jesus saved me!!! Now I'm saved and God is working on me. God bless, and stay safe, Jesus loves all of you!!!
I’m not longer a Christian. I still believe in God of course but I no longer practice Christianity for many reasons. I still love this song. I still love God no matter what.
Read Luke 15 : 11 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢sending love ❤ ❤❤❤❤
@@bethelihemtakele3211 no I’m not read a book I made and changed by a man.
@@H81234 I will pray for you cos I know you will never be so far to be back 🙏
Friend get back to the simplicity and truth of God’ Word
@@user-yg2nk4mn4j religion is man made and so is the Bible. God is the only one I follow not Christianity.
[Luke 1:62-64] 62 So they made signs to his father to find out what he wanted to name the child. 63 Zechariah asked for a tablet and wrote, “His name is John.” And they were all amazed. 64 Immediately Zechariah’s mouth was opened and his tongue was released, and he began to speak, praising God.
AMEN GOD BLESS MATTHEW WEST LOVE THIS SONG!! i am a christian but after reading these comments some of them are very rude calling non believers nd dislikers retarded just rude nd un-christian. God is the one to judge we shouldn't be judging others because of there opinions, we cant force them or convince them 2 believe in jesus christ evn if it sadens us that is the holy spirits job not ours. BUT GOD BLESS MATTHEW WEST AMAZING SONG LOVE IT
This was one of the first songs by Matthew West i heard.When i heard it,it stopped me in my tracks. I've been a fan ever since.His songs inspire me as a Christian to be more and do more.
03-12-2023
GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY!!!
I LOVE ALL YOURS SONGS!!!
I CRIED A LOT WHEN I HEARD YOUR PRAISE!!!
❤❤❤❤❤❤
Lord may there be the greatest harvest of light of Jesus and exponential blessings and love and passion inside of me !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and may it bless others even my enemies
We more often that not go through the motions! We deprive ourselves of so much freedom and blessings by doing so!
This song is very touching and hits me every time I listen to it. I'm going to see him this weekend. I hope he will sing this song live.
beautifulnamjoon I would love to hear this live
This song changed my life 14 years ago. Hearing it one early morning and singing it loudly to our God, He lead us to raise our two great nieces for Him. They were 3 and 8 and are now 17 and 21. God is good and has been faithful to help us every step of the way.
Amen
Good work!
Thank you for the last time you came to Kalispell Montana.I had never been to a christain concert in my life it was moving to share the same emotion with 5,000 other people. I usually stick out where ever i go.But that afternoon and evening i felt like i belonged some where.
The grate apart of that night was you guys helping a band member to find a forever love. Hope he found her.No i did not forget that you shared that story with us about your father and the road you were walking down before you went back to his arms. I had never known his arms until my adopted family gracefully turned me on to his truth.Thanks again.Show low Az is where i live know.
Thank God for Matthew West. I'm glad he survived vocal problems. :)
God has something to say-
To US.
and
Through US.
😭
Responding after ten years :)
"The value of this season will no doubt be PRICELESS." God, I needed that today! 💓
Hallelujah
I wouldn't be here today if it weren't for God. He got me through years of torment and helping me heal.
I'm so disturbed right now.. My good friend, Robby has decided to resent Christ. He's been a church friend of mine for years. He decided that the church was too hypocritical and that everybody within it is evil. He says I'm the only person he ever actually saw follow Christ. But I guess he's wrong.. Cuz if I really wanted to do something, I would have made a difference in other people's lives so they can assist in making a difference in his life.. I don't know. Prayers for my friend!
This song could be 3 hours longer and I'd still want more. It's just so powerful and musical and foot tapping, head nodding, and body moving that it leaves me listening to it on repeat, still hungry for more.
God is Sooooooooooooooo Good
Amen He is truly SO good
Grunt grunt
One the first Christian songs that really called to me. Ever since then I live a new level of accountability
We all go through God's trials. Some longer than others. But the ones who are "defeated" by them and still give Him the level of praise shown in this song are the ones who have truly passed
My favorite part: I don't wanna go through the motions I don't wanna go one more day without your all consuming passion inside of me. Everyone I've been telling these replies to a ton of Christian songs to everyone it's important to believe in God
( COVID-19) stay safe be careful out there .....the motions...still listening in 2020.
Thank you Mathew West. God Bless.
In my opinion is one of best. Christian Songs God bless you Mathew West
I don't want to be a prisoner of fear any more. I don't want to go through the motions any more 💯 Not one more day ❤
I pray that I would never get comfortable and start "going through the motions" 🙏😕
Do not forget you sins, because they then can creep up to you and attack you when you feel the strongest. Sin is like a robber of the night, it attacks when you least expect it. Instead fight sin! Combat sin in everything you do, in this way you show others what a true Godly christain is.
Jesus I will give everything ; because I am Will!!
This song means so much to me. A few years ago I had a breast cancer scare. I remember crying out to God, telling Him that no matter what happened, I would use my life to glorify Him and try to make a difference in others lives until my death. I'm not sure if it was a test to see how I would react but my next test results were negative and the spot was benign. I give my life fully to Him and will not just "go through the motions." Thank you Matthew West for this wonderful song!❤️
This song broke my heart... Until you are facing the uncertainty of surgery, where everyone else is in control (and you are not), you will never know how faithful God is, and how much He loves you and gave His life for you. Jesus is my healer, no matter what the world says.
Surgery is not the only thing that does that. All humans will hit this point ....because life is joy and loss
remind us Lord what a privilege it is to worship and serve you
John 15:5 “I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing.
Matthew, your song helped me through a VERY tough time in my life. Thanks.
It's been many years since I last listened to this song and I forgot who sang it and finally tonight after many years I find it and am laying here trying to fall asleep at 1:25am almost 3½hrs after my bedtime.. song still hits home! One of my favorites!
The slow fall from a serving servant of my Savior Jesus Christ to delusional, stumbling backsliding pride hearted sinner, is truly more exhausting than I anything else in this life.
🛐🙏😭Heavenly Father JesusGod, I know that I am a sinner. I know that I deserve the consequences of my sin. However, I am trusting in Jesus Christ as my Savior. I believe that His death and resurrection provided for my forgiveness. I trust in Jesus and Jesus alone as my personal Lord and Savior. Thank you Lord, for saving me and forgiving me! In JesusMightyGod's holy name, Amen!"
How can people dislike this song!! This song helps me get through the day!!
10 years ago how are you with Jesus?
2020!!!!
I always listen to this song before I get surgerys I will diffentely listen this in my next upcoming surgery in October and I listen to Strong enough as well it helps me finding strength.
May God heal you inside out and you become a testament and witness of his amazing love and grace. May our father God keep you with him and bless you.❤️🙌🙏
and just continuing from what I said before... When you do give everything to god it is like no other feeling in the world! the addictions you had and the dirty things that filled your mind and consumed your life are no longer there its like u have no desire for anything else but to give god the praise he deserves. When people start critizing you, dont give up cuz its just the devil trying to stop you! He is afraid of what you can do when you have a burning passion for god and can rub off on ppl
This song had me examining my walk with Jesus . I chose life in Christ, being sincere in my service. Not wondering if I was just window dressing. It is a fearful thing to stand before the living God. We have a chance to get it right before we leave this world. Think about it.
God is awesome, and He's done so much for you! I'm glad you've had this wonderful breakthrough where you can sing again. God bless you!
It annoys me how some immature people have to go through and dislike God sent stuff like this..:/ Ovbiously they don't understand how GREAT it feels to change..and get out of the motions of life..and TRUELY LIVE for God.
I pray that the whole world would wake up that we don't have enough time in this lifetime. We only have ONE life, we don't get another chance. Please go to God and except him as your lord and savior, believe that Jesus died on the cross for your sins, we are not perfect but God is! Please go to him he's the most amazing person! He changed my life, and thousands of other lives, he'll change yours! Please go to him. You might not understand why these things are happening to you right now, but you'll understand soon. Please go to Jesus!
I agree but u can't beg or make them Believe I wish I could but I can't
I’ve been so far from God lately. My beliefs and my convictions are so weak and I’ve been saying this phrase everyday. I️ can’t change on my own sins grip is far too strong but God has got this I️ feel his loving arms and I️ want to sing his praises...
Annah Stang Please share. Anything helps. Even a dollar. God bless you.

Matthew West, you are one of my favorite singers. I love how you take ordinary people's life stories, including your own, and turning them into a song that fits a lot of other peoples life situations. You also put God's word into your songs and I love the message I get out of them. I, for one, am thankful that God healed you to be able to continue to sing about Him and His grace and love. Thank you for all you do and may God continue to bless you and your band.
I'm so done right now. Over half way through senior year, and what have I done to testify to God's wonders? I'm not sure why I'm still going through the motions at this point. I have a severe case of senioritis, and the only people I really care about from the High School are Christians anyway. God has really spoken to me through Matthew West lately. I don't want there to be any regrets. I don't want to go through the motions.
Rest in peace baby daddy almost been 2 months 🫠
Our God is so Loving
Jesus not only loves us but He is Love
Sometimes thank you says it all
🎓🎓🙌🙌🙌
This song reminded me of my why. Why I was pushing myself in school and sports . To prove something to everyone and right before state my last match I had to win in order to qualify. I listened to this and fought till the very end and won. This song really pushed me to be a better me not only with god, school or sports but with myself .
Can you feel Gods presents?❤️
I truly can relate for the need of faith, I need it in my career right now. But the Lord blessed me with this position, truly he did. I cannot begin to believe that our Lord does anything without a purpose. So? my job is under attack, but if I've been blessed this far, I'll keep that faith that whatever happens sorrow or joy in this area it is His will, and He'll take care the rest.
On August 2nd 2019 I got a call saying my uncle Matt had been in a motercycle accident and was in the ICU. We went to see him stayed over night being told he was gonna pull through and he was gonna be okay. August 15th we were told his spleen was going to rupture do you the pressure in his head, soon in August 16th we took him off life support. Then after I started smoking, drinking and doing drugs. My friends found out and we all went to church one night and prayed. God is with you through everything.
Amen
Mathew West, God Glorified Himself through your weakness and test. You described the struggle of my whole life! I never give up to look for the right job, and I am not talking about the one with most of money, fame, comfort. I am talking about the destiny that God prepared for me. Most of people just work for an income and not for a purpose, most of people dont look for vocation or give the best of themselves, they just want to survive. I always wondered what you said in your song 'what if I had given everything?' and that question turned deeper, real, hurt, when I had to go through two surgeries in less than 4 months, this year!! and no-coincidence on God's plans but... my last surgery just involved my vocal chords just like in your case... now I cant talk or sing at all... I am learning to be patient and to use wisely my voice, my words, my expressions. God is molding my character in this trial time. Thinks I couldnt see when healthy. I thank Him for what I am learning... First song I wanna sing when I am back is THE MOTIONS!!!! GOD BLESS YOU MATTH!!!
Who’s here after hearing Matthew West sing at the virtual March for Life 2021?
God Bless You brother, you are a good example❣️❣️❣️🕊️🕊️🕊️❣️❣️❣️
Thank you Lord for giving us the gift of hearing Matthew West's voice
god bless you ............your strong enough to make me cry
it majes me cry alot wgen I hear it
I'm very emotional, and God bless you. This song made me cry. Your my favourite Christian artist
There is not one word, To describe what Jesus Christ has done for me.
My life was truly in addictions. I was beyond a wretch...and like a wretch, I deserved to die. But God did not let me die. He made me new, and you know. There are times when i sit here and cry...I remember the past...and it hurts...To know what i did. What i lost. But i will never give up...thanks to God. I am a warrior...and i shall praise his name in good and bad by his mercy! Pray for me! Love you all! God Bless!- Edward
the best modern christian song evaaarrrr =D dude, you make me proud to be a son of god
When I grow up I like to be a Christian singer, I have made 30-40 songs so far, quite a few are on My channel on A game I play. Some people I have sing in real life said i should go on American Idol, thinking about that. I been through alot already but this just begun, Here a question would you rather have a temporary thing or permeant thing? Eternity is Permeant, forgive our sins Lord.
I hope you do!!! If you haven't already!!! May He help you on the path!
I wouldn't go to American Idol. I would start singing & create a channel on here. American Idol is about creating an image & gaining notarity in the world. Start singing at church & maybe in town at talent shows or coffee shops. God can elevate you more than a tv show can & let him move you not the world. Sorry not trying to crush your dreams but I want you glorifying God. These shows will allow some singing about God but not enough. You'd be better going independent.
I would trade my entire 49 years of meaningless existence on this planet for one moment where I Glorified Christ and changed just one person's life.
I heard this for the first time on Klove right after it came out. I was in the car with a lady that invited me to church. I was deep in my addiction. I didn’t get saved until later, but the song stuck with me all through the years. I finally looked it up with the lyrics. It was this song.
Despite the motions, victory is guaranteed as long as you are in Christ. Jesus is Lord
I had to through mine after 25 years of pain hitial hernia repair surgery
And I
Said to myself what if I lose a lot of blood
Cause I bled easy what if I
Woke up and felt it
What if I got
Infection
Cause your messing with the heart ❤️ liver veins
Then I had to go
Through them again when they were taking me down the hall
The surgeon did it
And no lose of blood didn’t wake up during the surgery didn’t feel it
No
Infection
God was the one who healed me
This is one of my favorite song and video
I just found this song, I love it and can relate like so many, I was diagnosed with cancer and underwent radical surgery 6 months ago, I am doing alright now, I had faith prior but the love and compassion I received during and after has only strengthened it.
Thirty nine years of trying to be the bad boy is worse than just going through the motions but here i am lord im still here so it aint too late. Thanks for sending me that angel i am amazed by your grace, and beauty. I am forever fortunate and thankful god for now and every day is for you and the greater good.
God bless everyone because of this song exactly 999 decillion times more richly beyond your wildest dreams and highest expectations.
While I normally downvote songs like this when they come through my Pandora stations, this was an incredibly awesome song. Mr. West has an amazing voice and this song was amazing - religious overtones or not.
Matthew West you have inspired me and helped me through hard times god bless you Matthew West
Same, his music is some genuinely relatable stuff.
This was so great! I love your story Matthew West, you were one of the first Christian artists I heard when I started to listen to that type of music and you've helped me over come so much with your music (and God's help too of course) You're a blessing to all.
Even talking is a grace. We should serve God with all we have.
You know, this world would be a different world with everyone giving All they have to God! Forget these stupid sins that we let control us sometimes. We have the power to overcome Satan. We need to know that, and with God alone we can do it! This song says it all, What if I had given everything?We don't want to be in that situation at our life's end.It's up to us to be faithful and do God's Will.He wrote the Bible, not man, he actually told them what to write. The prophecies that he
