It is so difficult for a man to be pure in mind and spirit in our society. I think this song is a battle cry for all men who want to change how satan has taken over our lives, by destroying our families and breaking up our homes. What a wonderful thing God has given these men through their music to change lives and heal our world. Blessings and Joy to Sanctus Real for filling men's minds with God's will and strength.
I'm only fifteen years old, but I'm 100% confident that this will be my personal motto as husband, father, and friend in my house in the future. Thank you God.
this song was used by God to helpp change my life, I was seperated from my wife and children for nearly two months in seperate houses. I was getting my kids on the weekend, and was ready to persue other people... I keep my truck on AIR1 Radio, and I heard this song, I had to pull over because I just started crying, I pulled out my phone and pulled up youtube to find the song again and again. I then went to my wife's house, we fianlly watched Fireproof together. She was already on day 24.
I wish that all fathers could be this way, lives would be so much easier. I am only 17 years old, and have a father like this, and I strive everyday to be like him... I just pray to be this man someday
I proposed to me girlfriend with this song playing softly in the background on a porch swing with charismas lights strung out and tiki torches, I love this song. It is so true Without God I am nothing. He is our foundation and I pray that he leads me, because I can’t be the husband or father I need to be without his Grace.
I thank God every time I get in the car and hear Christian contemporary music coming from the radio. It brings me joy that I never ever got from the empty and sometimes God-forsaking stuff that pop is these days. And I'm part of the young generation; I'm only 15. These guys just get it. It's real, and nothing could ever replace them. God Bless Sanctus Real and can't wait for Awakening Fest '10! P. S. I kinda like this version a little bit better than the studio polished version...
I heard this song and am a single mom with 3 children and this song really speaks to me about how I lost my husband to another woman and also how I need to be there for my kids now as both a mother and a father to give my kids the stable loving home they deserve. Father God, won't you help lead me to lead my children to have a good life again? Amen
I remember hearing this song around Father's Day & my dad had just recently passed. I felt so alone & as if I had no one but on Father's Day this played & I cried like a baby. I realized that even though my earthly father was gone I still had my Heavenly Father. & there are days where I feel the same loneliness but I know with God I have the strength to pull through.
Mike Jonas Remember that even Jesus at a young age knew he had more than just an earthly father in Joseph, but that he had a heavenly Father in God. This information comes from Luke 2:41-52.
Mike , this comment touched me. I’m sorry for your loss of your earthly father. I just lost my father from cancer in July of 2020 and your comment spoke to me. Thank you brother in Christ
I am a Christian husband and father of two. God has blessed me greatly and this song is a blessing to me. I thank God for this song. This is an anthem for me everyday. Great song Sanctus Real!
I lost my wife 2 years ago to breast cancer at 38.she was the Love of my Life and everytime I here this song I know she is still inside me and I know how much Jesus loved me.I was the Love of his Life and one day we will all be together.thats amazeing.
I'm a husband who called to God for help when my marriage and life fell apart. I rededicated my life to Jesus. My wife is still apart from me. I'm fighting for her and have only God's strength to reach her. This song really hit me hard. I love you sweetheart.
I don't ever reply to videos on youtube, but I heard this song for the first time the other day. I cried, I am not religious, but I was extremely moved by this song.
I still play this song each week, try to every day to remind myself of what God has given me. A beautiful loving wife that cares for me and our children, Children that have blessed me with so much learning and growth in my own life and now I get to watch them grow and second, third, forth, etc chances from God to continue to grow and walk in his obedience and love. Thank you for this song.
i love this song so much, i played this for my friends mom when they were about to go through a divorce, and it stopped them from breaking apart.. god has a plan, and they were meant to be together
as two people who love each other grow closer to God they can be closer to one another. I love this song, and how he just pours himself into it. I bet he's an amazing husband, he gets it, God first, wife, everything else
Praise God that He put the song “Lead Me” into your hearts. The message I have received is so powerful in my life. The first time I heard it, I was brought to tears, I wondered how it would feel, as a wife to be led by a husband with this prayer in his heart. I started praying “Lord, please let my husband feel this prayer in his heart. Please let him ask You to lead him in his life as a husband and father. I need him to take the lead in my life & I need to know that you’re leading him.”
My wife and I saw Sanctus Real in concert last weekend. We did the meet and greet before the show. These guys are just awesome and humble! They also had Unspoken, Bread of Stone, and JJ Heller at the concert. Check out the other artists too. We met the members of Unspoken amd Bread of Stone after the show. Great men of Christ!
This song really pulled me through my marriage that unfortunately ended in divorce. There were children involved and it was an extremely abusive relationship. I tried my hardest to keep the marriage together but it was just to much of a battle. I cry every time I hear this song. I worked 12+ hour shifts on a truck and k-love and kvne seriously helped me throughout. I'm great full for these songs still today and I'm in such a better place than I was. Thank you.
I felt done with life, I wanted no more but then I heard this song and I don't know.... but I just get a feeling of happiness everytime I hear this song.
@hat else can I say that hasn't been said. I saw These guys perform this at Spirit WEst Coast and was instantly convicted. A new father of 2 (2 and 6 months) I can only imagine all the things I have to learn. Still, with God at the center, I will always strive to lead in the Spirit and with love. God bless Sanctus Real for this song and all you dads/soon-to-be dads out there!
I began hearing the messages I needed to that led me to the prayer that God gave me back. “Lord, please help me support my husband in his relationship with You so that his need for You continues to grow. Then he will know Your love so well that he will beg you to lead him in His life as a husband and father.“ I needed this realization at this very moment. Bless you!
I love this song & have since the 1st time I heard it. It's a song that all Christian wives/woman can relate to admit this is what they need and every Christian husband should strive to & pray for the strength to pursue!
This song really hit me hard, I'm about to graduate from college get engaged to the love of my life and I have had no father influence in my life. God used this song to reach my heart and let me know he will lead me with strong hands. Thanks Sanctus Real, this is an amazing song. Praise God!
I love this song. I wish so much my kids dad prayed this for us instead of leaving us. Thank you for this song! Excellent singing without the whole band! This song touches me deep everytime I hear it on the radio!
WHAT AN AMAZING SONG. Such a wakeup call for me. Sometimes we get caught up in work and the daily schedule. I need to be a better spiritual leader in my Family. No way I can do it on my own. Praise God for his power and Grace.
you are nothing without god and he will always be there to show you the right choises and paths and i need to learn that to becuase ive made bad choices and now im try to change and i know god will help me o my way to be a better person for him and help others see how amazing he is and his grace is.
kristin as a father this song tells me that i have to lead my family with Christ but I need God to lead me first , I pray u follow the Lord first and not a man and the people putting comments about letting their husband lead them are only rejoicing in the Lords ability to reflect himself in their spouse , God bless you today tomorrow and always
☆ i am 15 years old and I love God with all my heart I love this song. it's amazing and a perfect inspirational song. I am faced everyday with non believers at school and people who always try to put me down. well God is still strong with me he helps me get over the non believers and it's amazing he helped me get over my Godfather' s death in 07 and he helped get over my great grandmas death this year 9-11-10 ★
Made this song my ring tone for when my husband calls me. This song is wonderful. I bought this album when Forgiven came out and played it over and over. This is still one of the most touching songs for me. My husband of 16 years and I have had our ups and downs. I know this song means as much to him as it does me. Thanks guys!
I am crushed by this song. Please forgive me my Father. I have not been the leader in my home. My poor wonderful wife has to sholder the load. My kids have not had me to teach and lead them. Forgive me my family. My heart is torn, my heart is torn.
I really never listened to the lyrics until my wife told me what they signified. Im a stepfather to two beautiful girls and this really hit home with me. The words are so real and strong that it relates to me and my family. I've never been the leader type when it comes to prayer and GOD but I know that if I just ask for his guidence He will come through for me.
This just put me to tears... My dad has been unfaithful and he's been lying to me straight to my face saying he's trying to fix everything when he's making it worse.. I played this song in the car and he was singing along. I really wish he would live it instead of singing empty words.
"I don't want to leave them hungry for love, chasing things that I could give up..." I worked so hard to provide. 5 children and 5 grandchildren later, those words just grip me so deep. Our life in this world is a vapor; make every moment full.
@Tony2010enjoi thank you so much, i am 43 yrs and you been 15 yrs it really make me proud to know of your faith and strenght in God. you are a true follower of Christ and a good example of a teen christian, continue to be strong in the Lord and He will continue to see u through. keep faith with God and He will keep faith with You.
@jsfroese I heard this song before the CD was released, and also the story behind it, here on You Tube and it bought tears to my eyes when I figured the chords out on my "Ukulele"... I gifted this song to to friends who are fathers themselves as a plee for us husbands to answer the call that God has entrusted to us! Thank you for sharing your story here, and as a striving "Godly" father I can only offer my prayers to you and your children, may God's Will unfold in you life!!!
I just heard this song for the first time today. I heard it on the car radio and didn't know the name of the artist or the songs name...SOoo I went to youtube and typed in the first few words I heard and I found it...Awesome song!!
Seriously, hearing the story behind this, and behind "Forgiven" It is so great to see a band of Christians who are sold out for Jesus, and walk out a repentant lifestyle dependent on God
i love this song it touches me sooo much . it reminds me of my dad and his relationship with my mom and me and my siblings. how i wish at times he needs to lead us. : ))
excellent representation of the husbands roll in the family. the bible teaches that the husband should be the spiritual leader of the home. this song helps people realize that.

this song rings true for all the christian husbands and fathers out there. it spoke to me this morning. thank you sanctus real.
This should be an anthem song for all Christian men! Thanks Sanctus Real for reminding us to be real!
This is a great example of someone who has been blessed by God with a beautiful, beautiful voice. No autotune! :D

What a different and beautiful world this would be if all us men would live this song. Lead me.
This is a family song but in the end I get the spirit of Jesus praying to our Father for all of us to be strong in this world.
i love this song so much, i played this for my friends mom when they were about to go through a divorce, and it stopped them from breaking apart.. god has a plan, and they were meant to be together

Thank you Lord, my parents lead me to God 'salvation
I get it Brother. . . , He is now the true lead in life for me as I Lead within my family. . . , no long me but Jesus. . . . ,
Regardless of your religious affiliation....these guys are wonderful. So much to learn from and respect. This is how life is supposed to be lived.

im not going to lie, i teared up with this song. such a strong cry out for direction and leadership.
I want to make this my prayer as a husband everyday of my life.
They were the headliner for a rock the lawn concert at my church last summer. They were AWESOME!!

This is one of those life changing songs for a father and husband! Father lead me. WOW. Beautiful song! thanks guys, and God bless you.
THIS SONG TOUCHED ME SO MUCH I HAD TO PULL OVER AND PRAISE GOD FOR EVERY THING HE HAS GAVE ME IN MY LIFE .
☆ i am 15 years old and I love God with all my heart I love this song. it's amazing and a perfect inspirational song.

Heard for the first time on radio. Brought tears to my eyes. Men, this is what every woman and child need and desire.

🥰🥰😍such an amazing biblical song. The holy Spirit has created a magic with santus real

Stumbled upon this song entirely by chance years ago and it was a real eye opener. Helped me to get out of a toxic dead-end relationship. Thanks!
Love this series.........worship music stripped down to its most basic parts. Truly beautiful.

My kind of guy :D I hope I will find a guy with the same morals that he has.
awesome DavidSocal8!!! With a heart like that-- God will definitely get the glory in your relationship
Seriously, hearing the story behind this, and behind "Forgiven" It is so great to see a band of Christians who are sold out for Jesus, and walk out a repentant lifestyle dependent on God
who on earth would ever think of disliking this??
