Fall of 1988, I go to this bible study at my friends house. There is this girl there and we start talking. I tell her I play the piano and she asked me if I knew any songs by Keith Green, I gave her a coy smile and said "Pick one" hoping she picked one of the four I could actually play. She asked if I knew "Your love broke through" which I did. That girl liked Keith Green, Piano players and the Raiders, and we have been married for 30 years.
Awwww... what a sweet story ❤. Wishing you so many more years together. I have loved Keith Green since my sister brought his music home. It's one of my happy childhood places.
@@bearkiels9032 My Aunt and Uncle lived in Costa Mesa California right in the middle of the Southern California Jesus Movement. My Uncle tells the story of going to Chuck Smith's Calvary chapel and there was some wild hair hippie beating a piano to death. My brother brought back Keith's album in 1977 to our house. The 8 track in our Chevy Monte Carlo had 2 tapes Andre Crouch and Keith Green.
This is awesome! My Dad and Keith wrote this song together along with Randy Stonehill.Yes they were once upon a time "lost" hippies "seeking" the truth in all the wrong places,but both soon fell deeply in love with Jesus and were transformed, and very sober by this time(:Keith asked to be my God father shortly b4 I was born at last day's ministries,and when I was almost one the plane went down and although I wish I grew up with Keith I truly think he might be making more of an impact from heaven
Such precious memories as I was a teen in the 1970s in California - and these gifted artists were so influential in those turbulent years. Truly inspirational - even these many years later!
I was atheist but PAPA GOD sent HOLY GHOST to touch me in 1972, on CHRISTMAS EVE when I asked HIM in the name of JESUS! GLORY! 👏🏼❤️ I woke up CHRISTMAS MORNING, BORN AGAIN! HALLELUJAH! 🎄🙌🏼🎄🙌🏼👏🏼❤️✝️❤️
Keep listening to Keith's music...it will encourage you greatly in your new walk with God, I have been saved now for 38 years...still listen to Keiths music...cant go wrong
I’m so glad I lived through this era. The Jesus movement swept across America, Keith Green, second Chapter of acts, Larry Norman and Phil Keaggy to name a few. Mighty men of God rose up like Chuck Smith and the Calvary Chapel movement thousands of hippies were baptized in Corona Delmar. It was like living in the book of Acts. What a privilege to see God pout out his Holy Spirit.
And now I am so glad I am living through the Chapters of Revelations, Peter and Psalms currently in America. Peter warned in these days, as in his his as most people are single and not married, encouraging yet stern to our married Christians brothers and sisters - of divisions in the Christ churches . In war and politics, follies of mankind are not working. But the spirit is calling, many are called and many hear. But few are chosen .
Worshiped with Keith way back when. His songs are still applicable today. Every knee will bow and every mouth will confess that Jesus is LORD. I pray that you accept him before it's too late.
I mixed sound for Keith at Calvary Chapel San Diego North Park in the late '70s. My sweetie walked forward that Wednesday night. Married for 45 years. Went to Christian Night at Disneyland and as we were exiting Keith was playing and we were all praising God. When he finished and we looked around, the crowd was massive. They were already marshaling people out as it went overtime... but it was sooo awesome worshipping at D-Land. Went to Keith's last concert at Jesus West Coast in '80s and a few weeks later was sobbing at my workbench as I listened to KBRT. Rich Buehler announced Keith and others crashed... they sent me home and my sweetie was sobbing. We sat there with our girls and cried. Just a couple weeks later we heard that Melody Green was going to be in San Pedro welcoming the Mercy Ship, Anastasis. It was just an hour south of us and went there with our four small children. The crowd was massive and we're singing praise songs and the crew on the ship was singing back with us... chilling. After the dedication of the ship to the ministry for Christ we were able to tour the ship. We saw a daycare and school, radio room, mess (dining in ship-speak)... we realized that WE could use our skills as missionary support! Wow! In 1987, following Keith's missionary call,, we traveled to Waxhaw, NC to Jungle Aviation and Radio Service (JAARS) for training as a communication/avionics tech and went through TX and stopped at Last Days ministry. Went to the graveside and cried again. Every album paralleled our life as Christians... except "So You Want to Go Back to Egypt". We spent 6 years serving with Wycliffe Bible Translators/ JAARS in the Philippines. I was the Communications Manager of three centers and my sweetie taught 1st and 2nd grades. It was Keith's dream to motivate young people to the mission field, and after his death thousands did just that... similarly to the late 50s after five missionaries were martyred by those they were praying to reach. Both were impetus for missions. After spending 10 weeks on a ventilator and 4 in rehab, these songs, and those of the early Calvary Chapel movement, echo constantly in my mind and heart. May God bless you with this - one of thousands - stories of how Keith Green's life and death was used mightily by God.
Loved your HiStory. Do you by chance know the Reid family? They went with Wycliffe and when they were stateside lived in Waxhaw ~ still do in retirement.
@jklewis54 Language school in Ecuador; Peru, Africa, France ~ they're entire career spent with Wycliffe. I understand it's a wide range of time, place, etc, but hey, I've run into some "it's a small world" stories. Btw, Keith impacted my life, (East coast Jesus Freak) and, as a result, siblings, nieces & nephews, children, sil, grandchildren ... my family tree. I love his music, to this day I'm encouraged & instructed by the song of The Gospel as Keith sang it for the short while we had him. Marantha! 🙏🏼✝️🇮🇱🎗
I was inspired by Keith & Melody Green and LDM as a young Christian in the 80's. I'm from the San Franando Valley also. After reading Melody's book I learned that we were both in the same Buddist cult but in different parts of LA. I was going to go to Texas to get training for missions but God told me "No. Your mission field is your own back yard!" So I guess that's how I got started in homeless ministry, and LDM & his music were a very big part of my life back then.😊✡️✝️🤞
I was born in 1983, almost a year after Keith Green went home with the Lord. My father would play his music when I was a child and it spoke to me. When I was a teenager his music helped ground me. I would play his music and worship the Lord as I feel asleep. I was a pretty wild teenager but it was the love of God that always drew me back to him. Even today in my late 30’s Keith’s worship to the Lord brings me back and grounds me. I am so grateful for his heart for the Lord and the talents God have him. His testimony and ministry are still touching hearts decades later. The worship of our king is timeless. We praise your Holy name Yeshua Adonai.
Aww, amen, this is like my story! When I had insomnia and anxiety as a teen, my dad gave me a cassette tape of him and I listened to him. Even in my late 30’s it still is meaningful despite it not being normal for our age group. Keep seeking Him first!
+Anthony Root that man had a real "saul on the Damascus road experience" & I heard about he died in an airplane cash & for years(decades) though not much about it! Now I believe he was "deliberately murdered" because his life & anointing offended many sinners & so-called Christians out there !!!!!
+Aljonimo Aspieman Well what happened to his as well as the other bodies? think Keith Green had enemies because he was so devoted &I feel his anointing would have gotten stronger & stronger & evil & evil men did not want this!!!!!
+RonSafreed All nonsense. Keith wasn't murdered! He died along with 11 others in a plane crash. If someone wanted to murder him, why would they also kill the pilot and a family of 8, plus Keith's 2 tottlers?!! Ya know, that's exactly how unfounded rumors get passed sround. Even IF there were no bodies, it would have been because the plane blew up in a cloud of fire from the impact But there were bodies...all 12 of them died. The bible says that gossip (rumors) is a sin. The reason Keith Green and the rest of them died is because that's when God took them. We all have an appointment with desth. Some of us die very young, some in accidents, some in old age, and some out of self - inflicted stupidity like alcohol/drug overdose, some by suicide, etc. God already knows when each of us will die and He knew it at the beginning of time, long before we were even born. So please stop with untrue remarks. If your statements are true, then please post your source, Until then, I will believe the truth.
+Aspieman Aspergers The Scripture says that every good and perfect gift comes from our Father in heaven. I promise you that he never desires to see any of his precious children abused and murdered. Our Father has never caused these things to happen but he has sent the solution to the cause of all this wickedness. When Jesus took the cross for you and I, he provided the Love Solution for our willfully wicked hearts (Mark 7:20-23). The truth is that all of the motivations of God's heart towards us have been displayed for us in everything Jesus did and said while he was among us. In light of this reality we can see that he does not approve of anything evil or wicked because he is holy and pure. So he sent the innocent man Jesus to be guilty in our place. Even though I was guilty of great sin in my heart, Jesus willfully chose to suffer in my place the punishment I deserved from God. The only man to ever be tempted like the rest of us but never give in became the one who God poured out his holy wrath on. This is so you and I don't have to bear God's wrath. This innocent man took our punishment so we could come to God and know him personally. God took the just punishment of evil upon himself for you and I. Surely he took up our pain and bore our suffering, yet we considered him punished by God, stricken by him, and afflicted. 5 But he was pierced for our transgressions, he was crushed for our iniquities; the punishment that brought us peace was on him, and by his wounds we are healed. 6 We all, like sheep, have gone astray, each of us has turned to our own way; and the Lord has laid on him the iniquity of us all.(Isaiah 53:4-6)
Look up some of his wife's talks on you tube, like his memorial concert. She said that the two children were buried in the same casket with Keith in his arms.
If David was a man after Gods heart, Keith Green sat at his feet. A true Maverick and a man of faith. His message still reverberates through time. Now more than ever, the urgency is real to make amends.
A person never realizes what a a far reaching g impact their ministry has on others. We were missionaries in the Philippines when I first heard his song. What a time of spiritual refreshing I had being ministered to by his ministry.
Keith has always brought forth such raw, genuine reverberation in his songs in his walk with Jesus. Praising him, struggling with times of uncertainty, longing to reach the lost on this earth. I've always been most drawn to his music. Praise the Lord for ministering through him.
if you enjoy his type of spiritual songs. i enjoy them as well but i also enjoy stryper, angelica, contagious, sovereign grave music, david and the giants and petra, idle cure and many others songs that glorify the trinity.
I met Jesus on the 8th March 1987.He delivered me. His light broke into my dark life and set me free. He called me to follow Him THANK YOU JESUS Shortly after this I was given a Keith Green worship tape by an amazing Christian. Keith Green’s Your Love Broke Through is my story If you are in the Dark and scared and afraid ,there is a way to freedom. Call on the name of Jesus
+derek p thanks a million for your testimony, I was blessed by your info & Keith Green was a 100 fold Christian when he lived here before his death in 1983!!!!
I am a Christian and this song makes me cry every time I listen to because m life completely. a few years when I was 7th grade, I began to stray from God and didn't realize it until I began feeling empty inside. one time I watched a documentary on Keith Green and this song played at the end and it was so convicting because it made me realize how much I had strayed from the LORD and it described my life perfectly. after watching I got back on track and began living for he Lord once again.
This man truly loved Jesus and followed the call to serve Him no matter the cost. Today, when I needed encouragement from the Lord to sustain me through a difficult time, He led me to this song. Thank you Keith for not loving the world, for showing that when you allow the love of Christ to fill you by His Holy Spirit, the world around you is affected. I look forward to seeing you in heaven.
I remember some Christian friends of mine who introduced me to Keith's music when I was a teenager. We were all devastated when he and most of his children died in that plane crash. Their ministry based in Texas sent us records for free since we could not pay for them. I will never forget this man's music and his deep commitment to his faith.
I was saved in 1980 and weaned on Keith Greenand LDM. I think the only other performer that came even remotely close was the late Rich Mullins. Cut from the same cloth..... Can't wait to worship my Lord God ( with Keith) in heaven. Wow. This is one of my favorite songs EVER.
Religious? No bro ….in love with Jesus, you don’t write songs like these without knowing the one who saved you from hell…..when you know God’s love for you, when you know Him deep in your heart…you want others to know because God is everything, loving God and feeling Him love you back is indescribable Keith’s music does though , it’s a taste of what Jesus can be in your life, He is so amazing and He loves you so so much!✨
Keith Green was a great example of a godly man. Don't worry about Christians - they'll always let you down - they're human after all. Set your eyes on Jesus.
I listened to Keith's music when I was a new Christian. Nothing better to help me grow in my faith. Still brings me back to the sweet new love in the Lord!
I grew up in church, got saved young but this song touched my heart when I was 15, and made me weep for joy knowing how much Jesus loved me, after hearing it and many more songs of Keith Green it made me want to read my bible, to know the scripture the songs were based off of. I also subscribed to his newsletter which was like a small magazine, written about the things happen today and how you deal as a christian…..it was NOT churchianity…. It was REAL and Honest and encouraging to me to further seek God and know Him….I am so grateful to Keith Green ministries and their articles….and I can’t wait to hear his new music in heaven one day when we will be with our savior, Jesus worshipping ✨
I met a dear beautiful lady in Fred Meyer, and she helped me with my pregnancy out of wedlock, and led me to Jesus! I'm so glad I met her, and she introduced me to Keith Green's music.
many many years ago I was in the Fresno County Jail for the weekend (long story) during that time I spent there I wrote down the words to this song, I had left the writing on my bunk as we were served our dinner for the evening. Upon my return to my bunk I'd found that the paper was gone. I know in my spirit God used that moment of my incarceration for his GLORY.
Jesus is all over him and He is with Jesus Christ right now, I am jealous. Seeking Jesus here as I live on the earth. His presence, His power, His tangible presence.
I saw Keith in concert for the first time in the late 1970s in a gymnasium. We all sat on the floor around the piano as he played, sang, and testified of God's goodness and love for us. His ministry transformed my life. I remember hearing the news of his death and the deep sorrow that came from that announcement. His music still impacts me. It seems like it was yesterday.
Keith Green was such a part of my Faith journey. In my 60’s now and find Zach Williams same effect. Very different sound but eyes on Jesus! Thank you Lord for the blessings of music 🎶
Keith Green's songs are timeless and transcend generations! His songs glorified God and He lived his life to give all glory and praise to him. Thanks for posting this great worship song! God bless!
Keith Green made a huge impact on my life......I was dating my husband when he and his two beautiful children died in a plane crash.......so sad that the world lost such a Godly man that day........
Thank you for sharing this. Back in 1988 freshman in college, I met the Lord and was inspired by Keith like no other Christian musician. It's been a long road back to the Lord but I'm waking from the dream again. So glad both the Lord and Keith Green are here to welcome me back. Praise you Jesus!
Ground breaking realisation of God Power. I was saved by a Christian band who were obedient to the Spiritual calling if God. Grateful they were. Praise God at all times.
My mom listened to him . This man's music has always been present in my life. I really love and miss him. I never met him but I feel like he knows...he KNOWS God in a way I hope I can.
If I could capture in words the moment the love of Jesus and the cross pierced my blindness and filled my heart and mind with light and joy, it would be this song. And I long for the day when I will fully see Him.
Keith hit it right on the button!! I was lost in my own intellect until I realized I needed Jesus. He was that missing part my heart needed. I woke up to find Him looking at me with His loving eyes and right through my heart. I was only 18 years old at the time, thirty years ago!! I've never been the same since then. Man's intellect blinds us from understanding God's simple ways. Amen!!!
Like a foolish dreamer, trying to build a highway to the sky All my hopes would come tumbling down, and I never knew just why Until today, when you pulled away the clouds that hung like curtains on my eyes Well I've been blind all these wasted years and I thought I was so wise But then you took me by surprise Like waking up from the longest dream, how real it seemed Until your love broke through I've been lost in a fantasy, that blinded me Until your love broke through All my life I've been searching for that crazy missing part And with one touch, you just rolled away the stone that held my heart And now I see that the answer was as easy, as just asking you in And I am so sure I could never doubt your gentle touch again It's like the power of the wind Like waking up from the longest dream, how real it seemed Until your love broke through I've been lost in a fantasy, that blinded me Until your love, until your love, broke through
Me too!!! I remember the day he died and just how devastating it was to a lot of us. Keith planted seeds in me 1978-1982 that are still sprouting and bearing fruit today. ☝️🙏💙
"Keith Green was an intense and radical man of God. He was taken from this Earth at a relatively young age. His legacy lives on through his music and his sermons."
I believe that Keith Green and Michael Card are the 2 greatest singing evangelists for the cause of Salvation in the history of mankind. They seem to be closer to and more in love with God than the rest of us. Keith is gone to be with the Lord and he is greatly loved and missed. Michael Card is still here, so if you have not heard of him, start today, and tell friends and enemies to give a listen. I'm in awe of both Keith and Michael.
A genuine Christian who off the temptations of commercialism and compromise. Helped shaped the eighties with a true call to mission and sacrifice. How we need this same call today! He was the "Real deal".
You probably already know him, but Jason Upton is our modern version of Keith IMHO. Preaches from both behind the piano, and has a call to lay down our lives for the cause of making Jesus known globally . He's been the pioneer of modern prophetic worship for a long while now. You should check him out.
He was the real deal. His powerful nature and spirit, Christ given of course, spoke to me and fortified me as a young and growing Christian. His music speaks to me today as it did then, and today with the contrast of what Christian music is out there, I have to say... His Christian credibility is unmatched. These new singers-- 97% just do not have it from their core to be breathing Gods words in to what their bodies are manifesting. Keith did this. I am so thankful to Claudia Thomas (who at the time resided on Calais Rd. in Mendham, NJ who was a 'friend' of my Mom's) she was a Christian like very few I had ever met (this is in April, 1980) She lit a fire in me to be real about my faith. I went to church with her and her family.... Felt a bit odd because it was so charismatic-- Not like the Presbyterian church I was going to-- which too was Christian, I do not fault that church... But for the dynamic nature of faith being expressed through daily life... WOW, the kind of Christianity called for by Keith to be a sincere follower of Christ, Claudia Thomas had it. When I went away to college for my last two years to UNC Charlotte, I met a girl, Laura Johnson. We ended up dating, but she brought me a Keith Green cassette for my car, so I could listen to him (I didn't have a personal anything to play the tape, just my player in my car... We weren't so spoiled like we are today back then)... His music spoke to me like nothing else ever had. Today it is no different. I put on his music and in no time tears. Tears that say, wash yourself and go out in the day and be there for people in your path. Be there to hug, and make people feel His REAL love! So, I do. It's awesome.
This song takes me back to freshman year of high school, when I would ride the bus to school every morning. I would listen to this song, and other songs by Keith Green. I remember feeling like the world was so hostile at that time, especially since it was right after 9/11. And I felt like God was the only hope and comfort, the only answer to the madness all around me. I had the impulse to listen to this song tonight, probably for the first time in 15 years or so. I forgot how much it meant to me! It was like a hug from God. For many years I think I had forgotten what it was like to see God as a loving Father, and only recently have I started coming around on this.
Just today, I was driving around, listening to Keith Green. His voice reminded me of a song I heard years ago, but I had trouble remembering the words and I didn't know the name of the song. So I grabbed my phone and tried to Google the few words of the song I could recall. After about five minutes, my search failed to turn up any song. So I gave up for the time being and set my phone down. Literally a few seconds later, this song began playing. When he reached the chorus, I realized it was THE song I had been trying to find. I got teary-eyed. It was God speaking to me through the song. I really needed to hear the words to this song, not because I wanted to remember the song, but because my heart needed to hear Him speak to me. He was singing over me. I can't tell you adequately how wonderful it felt. But, I did briefly feel horrible. Horrible because earlier I had been in a rather bad mood (difficult drivers, to be kind about it). But I didn't believe He had forgiven me. I KNEW He had.
That brother is still a blessing. Just as when I started my walk 44 years ago. I long to see the Lord and the servants that have kept me alive all these years. Come quickly Lord Jesus
PAPA GOD sent HOLY GHOST to touch me on CHRISTMAS EVE in 1972! GLORY! I woke up CHRISTMAS MORNING, BORN AGAIN! HALLELUJAH! ❤️✝️❤️ Celebrating the 50th year since JESUS' LOVE BROKE THROUGH! THANK YOU DEAR LORD! 🎄🙏🏼🙌🏼👏🏼❤️
Was born after Bro. Keith went on to be with the Lord, but I grew up on his songs. Him and Matthew Ward had/have some of the most distinctive voices. "So You Wanna Go Back To Egypt" one of my favorites from Bro. Keith. ❤😊 It's gonna be so great when the family of God is united in eternity singing praises to King Jesus! ❤😭❤
THIS IS TRULY the love song of all those touched by the Love and sacrificial GRACE of the Lord Jesus Christ. no one, ... NO ONE can Love you like Jesus. ... and HE IS THE ONE Who brings forgiveness and imparts immortality by the Holy Spirit.
Still so good, a great reminder - thank you for surrendering to God, Keith. It’s been a great reference through three years so far of how important it is to build my own relationship with Christ. Time is limited on this earth.
Keith’s life inspired me and God used Keith’s (all sold out to Jesus and for Jesus) to draw me closer to Him. I started going to Elmbrook Church in 1995 and Keith’s words came back to me about “Jesus junk” as well as other teachings.
I can't believe how much Keith has made a impact on so many, I discovered him a year after he left us. His music was just what I needed to grow and mature very fast for the situation I was in during my early teens. I am yet to meet or see anyone with his passion not just for real CHRISTIAN music (not what the Companies are pushing on us) but for the lost.
I was introduced to the music of Keith Green when I joined my church youth group back in 1984. I instantly loved his music. He had so much to offer. Why do the great people die so soon? My favorite album is "For him who has ears to hear" RIP Keith and God bless...
Keith Green, Randy Stonehill & Phil Keaggy. 3 brothers in the lord who still were at the beginning of the Christian music movement and still inspire us..Thank you lord for bringing these men to us..
Until your love broke through...this man knew the Lord...Those "words" ring so loud and clear to me, because I remember when the Lord's love broke though to me too !!!! My prayer is that you to will experience Jesus in this way.
Saw Keith in LA a month before he was taken home. His music was such a blessing and conviction in my early walk with Jesus. Loved getting Last Days Newsletter in the mail!!
Thanks to the LORD JESUS CHRIST , I heard or should I say I remember this song at the age of 5 years old in 1980 from my precious mother who taught me about the SON of GOD . And to this day Keith Green still makes me cry when I listen to this song because of JESUS CHRIST . All praise and glory to the MOST HIGH , The NAME Above ALL NAMES , JESUS CHRIST , YESHUA . Thank you Lord Jesus for everyone and everything you put in my LIFE . AMEN!
What a voice !! I can picture Keith in my mind singing to the Lord, with a sold out crowd in heaven. Thank you Lord for my brother Keith, and his awesome music.
A psalmist and prophetic singer for sure. Highly anointed,and totally souled out. What an inspiration. It was an honor to be introduced to his music in my youth. The lord used it to carry me straight into adulthood
God has really stirred my heart with Keith's music lately. I hadn'tlistened to him for a decade or more. I am thanking God for his ministry that is still being used.
If you haven't watched Keith's story, do so. Yahweh implanted a passion and zeal in him that, we as believers, should exhibit daily. Keith's music encourages me and humbles me and makes me ever so thankful for Yeshua's sacrifice and love for me. I was searching for YEARS with drugs and alcohol. His love truly broke through, I now have a beautiful wife and two wonderful children. Only the love from our Messiah will keep us contempt. Prepare, He is returning.
My personal testimony in a song! Beautifully written, obviously Holy Spirit inspired! Thank you Jesus for Keith Green! I pray more people will rise up and be bold for you in Jesus Name amen 🙏
When I need to prepare for a sermon, there are few ministers who renew my focus on Christ like bro. Keith Green. Though home with the Lord since I was a boy, he still speaks!
When I heard this song for the first time, I was young in the Lord. I knew this song was talking about ME. I was a young teenager then thinking that I knew it all; that I was so wise and I saw everyone else below me. But I was so wrong; I was so full of myself but couldn't see it! While listening to the song, suddenly, I felt like I woke up and saw myself just like God saw me. I realized that my thoughts and ideas were all wrong! I felt like God was taking out my old heart and putting in a new one. He was telling me that my thoughts and ideas had to line up with His thoughts and ideas so that I could be a vessel of honor for His use. And that He would show me how it could be done. That day I became the happiest teenager alive who had been given a new chance at living a new life for the Lord. I will never forget that day! Thank you, Lord, for opening my eyes to see that without You I am nothing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
a father's day gift for me today (here in south africa).... my personal fav. so powerful. keith's music and writings had a powerful influence on my life in the years up to and beyond his death. thank you keith. thanks God! thanks melody for keeping Lat Days Ministry alive
This is one of my favorite christian songs and no one sings it better than Keith Green. I also like the song when sung by Phil Keaggy and Randy Stonehill. I agree that Keith was more than a musician - he gave his whole heart to witnessing for the Lord Jesus Christ. I was also a big fan of "Last Days Ministries" and I'm glad Keith was a big influence in my early walk with the Lord. I gave my heart to Jesus and got save in 1980 not too long before Keith went to be with the Lord.
Fall of 1988, I go to this bible study at my friends house. There is this girl there and we start talking. I tell her I play the piano and she asked me if I knew any songs by Keith Green, I gave her a coy smile and said "Pick one" hoping she picked one of the four I could actually play. She asked if I knew "Your love broke through" which I did. That girl liked Keith Green, Piano players and the Raiders, and we have been married for 30 years.
Best comment ever! Laughing so hard! Yes!!!!
Awwww... what a sweet story ❤. Wishing you so many more years together. I have loved Keith Green since my sister brought his music home. It's one of my happy childhood places.
What a wonderful story. I just discovered Keith Green a few months ago and I've been listening to him to this day.
The rest of the story is she would not go out with me for 6 months.
@@bearkiels9032 My Aunt and Uncle lived in Costa Mesa California right in the middle of the Southern California Jesus Movement. My Uncle tells the story of going to Chuck Smith's Calvary chapel and there was some wild hair hippie beating a piano to death. My brother brought back Keith's album in 1977 to our house. The 8 track in our Chevy Monte Carlo had 2 tapes Andre Crouch and Keith Green.
This is awesome! My Dad and Keith wrote this song together along with Randy Stonehill.Yes they were once upon a time "lost" hippies "seeking" the truth in all the wrong places,but both soon fell deeply in love with Jesus and were transformed, and very sober by this time(:Keith asked to be my God father shortly b4 I was born at last day's ministries,and when I was almost one the plane went down and although I wish I grew up with Keith I truly think he might be making more of an impact from heaven
Very cool story, Keith is still ministering to people today
Wow, nice story! Im sorry, is your father still alive making music for the Lord!!😊🙏
That’s very special! My buddy Phil Keaggy does a great version of this song. Keith will always be one of my top favorites!
Wow He is still making and impact from heaven that is for sure Brother Daniel.
Such a blessing and powerful song.
Such precious memories as I was a teen in the 1970s in California - and these gifted artists were so influential in those turbulent years. Truly inspirational - even these many years later!
This song says it so well. It was the first record I bought in 1985 after ditching atheism. Still makes me cry.
Brian Ross Praise Jesus!!!
Brian Ross praise God!
Makes me bawl too.
I no longer have faith, but this song still moves me. When it’s real you feel it. He really believed and I can’t help but to be moved.
GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOD FOR YOU!! I AM HAPPY FOR YOUR SOUL! GOD bless you man!
I was atheist but PAPA GOD sent HOLY GHOST to touch me in 1972, on CHRISTMAS EVE when I asked HIM in the name of JESUS! GLORY! 👏🏼❤️ I woke up CHRISTMAS MORNING, BORN AGAIN! HALLELUJAH! 🎄🙌🏼🎄🙌🏼👏🏼❤️✝️❤️
Wow, listening to this I'm 20 years old, just saved and filled with the Spirit. I want to be like that again. I want to end well.Thanks Keith.
Was my go to in the early 80s!
Keep listening to Keith's music...it will encourage you greatly in your new walk with God, I have been saved now for 38 years...still listen to Keiths music...cant go wrong
God is the author and finisher of your faith. You will end well.
I’m so glad I lived through this era. The Jesus movement swept across America, Keith Green, second Chapter of acts, Larry Norman and Phil Keaggy to name a few. Mighty men of God rose up like Chuck Smith and the Calvary Chapel movement thousands of hippies were baptized in Corona Delmar. It was like living in the book of Acts. What a privilege to see God pout out his Holy Spirit.
I would love to be part of something like that again
Me too and I believe our generation will lead the way to the last revival
I wish that too. This was truly a pouring out time although I was only a little kid then, I experienced the after effects as a youth. Thank you God
Just missed this era by a hair my Chrisyian musical mentors are larry norman,Steve Camp and Keith Green as well as Glenn and Wendy Kaiser(Rez Band)
And now I am so glad I am living through the Chapters of Revelations, Peter and Psalms currently in America. Peter warned in these days, as in his his as most people are single and not married, encouraging yet stern to our married Christians brothers and sisters - of divisions in the Christ churches . In war and politics, follies of mankind are not working. But the spirit is calling, many are called and many hear. But few are chosen .
I miss real anointed Christian music like this here. No compromise. .No crossover.
I grew up with Keith when his music was brand new on vinyl. If you ask me? Better than church any day!
No "God is my Girlfriend" nonsense, where you're not really sure what they're singing about. I love Fernando Ortega, too.
@@janetaldrich7747 "God is my girlfriend" oh my gosh that explains modern Christian music perfectly.
This vintage Christian music is pure gold, how spiritually flat & dull alot of the bethel/Hillsong trendy worship music is.
@@Dewvoodle same here!
Worshiped with Keith way back when. His songs are still applicable today. Every knee will bow and every mouth will confess that Jesus is LORD. I pray that you accept him before it's too late.
❤he is coming!
I mixed sound for Keith at Calvary Chapel San Diego North Park in the late '70s. My sweetie walked forward that Wednesday night. Married for 45 years.
Went to Christian Night at Disneyland and as we were exiting Keith was playing and we were all praising God. When he finished and we looked around, the crowd was massive. They were already marshaling people out as it went overtime... but it was sooo awesome worshipping at D-Land.
Went to Keith's last concert at Jesus West Coast in '80s and a few weeks later was sobbing at my workbench as I listened to KBRT. Rich Buehler announced Keith and others crashed... they sent me home and my sweetie was sobbing. We sat there with our girls and cried.
Just a couple weeks later we heard that Melody Green was going to be in San Pedro welcoming the Mercy Ship, Anastasis. It was just an hour south of us and went there with our four small children.
The crowd was massive and we're singing praise songs and the crew on the ship was singing back with us... chilling.
After the dedication of the ship to the ministry for Christ we were able to tour the ship. We saw a daycare and school, radio room, mess (dining in ship-speak)... we realized that WE could use our skills as missionary support! Wow!
In 1987, following Keith's missionary call,, we traveled to Waxhaw, NC to Jungle Aviation and Radio Service (JAARS) for training as a communication/avionics tech and went through TX and stopped at Last Days ministry. Went to the graveside and cried again.
Every album paralleled our life as Christians... except "So You Want to Go Back to Egypt".
We spent 6 years serving with Wycliffe Bible Translators/ JAARS in the Philippines. I was the Communications Manager of three centers and my sweetie taught 1st and 2nd grades.
It was Keith's dream to motivate young people to the mission field, and after his death thousands did just that... similarly to the late 50s after five missionaries were martyred by those they were praying to reach. Both were impetus for missions.
After spending 10 weeks on a ventilator and 4 in rehab, these songs, and those of the early Calvary Chapel movement, echo constantly in my mind and heart.
May God bless you with this - one of thousands - stories of how Keith Green's life and death was used mightily by God.
Thank you for sharing your amazing story.🙂
Loved your HiStory. Do you by chance know the Reid family? They went with Wycliffe and when they were stateside lived in Waxhaw ~ still do in retirement.
@@JICA77 No, sorry. Do you know where they served?
@jklewis54 Language school in Ecuador; Peru, Africa, France ~ they're entire career spent with Wycliffe. I understand it's a wide range of time, place, etc, but hey, I've run into some "it's a small world" stories. Btw, Keith impacted my life, (East coast Jesus Freak) and, as a result, siblings, nieces & nephews, children, sil, grandchildren ... my family tree. I love his music, to this day I'm encouraged & instructed by the song of The Gospel as Keith sang it for the short while we had him. Marantha! 🙏🏼✝️🇮🇱🎗
I was inspired by Keith & Melody Green and LDM as a young Christian in the 80's. I'm from the San Franando Valley also. After reading Melody's book I learned that we were both in the same Buddist cult but in different parts of LA. I was going to go to Texas to get training for missions but God told me "No. Your mission field is your own back yard!" So I guess that's how I got started in homeless ministry, and LDM & his music were a very big part of my life back then.😊✡️✝️🤞
I was born in 1983, almost a year after Keith Green went home with the Lord. My father would play his music when I was a child and it spoke to me. When I was a teenager his music helped ground me. I would play his music and worship the Lord as I feel asleep. I was a pretty wild teenager but it was the love of God that always drew me back to him. Even today in my late 30’s Keith’s worship to the Lord brings me back and grounds me. I am so grateful for his heart for the Lord and the talents God have him. His testimony and ministry are still touching hearts decades later. The worship of our king is timeless. We praise your Holy name Yeshua Adonai.
Aww, amen, this is like my story! When I had insomnia and anxiety as a teen, my dad gave me a cassette tape of him and I listened to him. Even in my late 30’s it still is meaningful despite it not being normal for our age group. Keep seeking Him first!
I was born a decade after Keith Green died but I must say the Holy Spirit moves powerfully through his music now.
+Anthony Root that man had a real "saul on the Damascus road experience" & I heard about he died in an airplane cash & for years(decades) though not much about it! Now I believe he was "deliberately murdered" because his life & anointing offended many sinners & so-called Christians out there !!!!!
+Aljonimo Aspieman Well what happened to his as well as the other bodies? think Keith Green had enemies because he was so devoted &I feel his anointing would have gotten stronger & stronger & evil & evil men did not want this!!!!!
+RonSafreed
All nonsense. Keith wasn't murdered! He died along with 11 others in a plane crash. If someone wanted to murder him, why would they also kill the pilot and a family of 8, plus Keith's 2 tottlers?!!
Ya know, that's exactly how unfounded rumors get passed sround.
Even IF there were no bodies, it would have been because the plane blew up in a cloud of fire from the impact But there were bodies...all 12 of them died. The bible says that gossip (rumors) is a sin.
The reason Keith Green and the rest of them died is because that's when God took them. We all have an appointment with desth. Some of us die very young, some in accidents, some in old age, and some out of self - inflicted stupidity like alcohol/drug overdose, some by suicide, etc. God already knows when each of us will die and He knew it at the beginning of time, long before we were even born. So please stop with untrue remarks.
If your statements are true, then please post your source, Until then, I will believe the truth.
+Aspieman Aspergers The Scripture says that every good and perfect gift comes from our Father in heaven. I promise you that he never desires to see any of his precious children abused and murdered. Our Father has never caused these things to happen but he has sent the solution to the cause of all this wickedness. When Jesus took the cross for you and I, he provided the Love Solution for our willfully wicked hearts (Mark 7:20-23).
The truth is that all of the motivations of God's heart towards us have been displayed for us in everything Jesus did and said while he was among us. In light of this reality we can see that he does not approve of anything evil or wicked because he is holy and pure. So he sent the innocent man Jesus to be guilty in our place. Even though I was guilty of great sin in my heart, Jesus willfully chose to suffer in my place the punishment I deserved from God. The only man to ever be tempted like the rest of us but never give in became the one who God poured out his holy wrath on. This is so you and I don't have to bear God's wrath. This innocent man took our punishment so we could come to God and know him personally. God took the just punishment of evil upon himself for you and I.
Surely he took up our pain
and bore our suffering,
yet we considered him punished by God,
stricken by him, and afflicted.
5 But he was pierced for our transgressions,
he was crushed for our iniquities;
the punishment that brought us peace was on him,
and by his wounds we are healed.
6 We all, like sheep, have gone astray,
each of us has turned to our own way;
and the Lord has laid on him
the iniquity of us all.(Isaiah 53:4-6)
Look up some of his wife's talks on you tube, like his memorial concert. She said that the two children were buried in the same casket with Keith in his arms.
In our youth days,Keith Green shipped many LAST DAY MAGAZINES and many of his songs to us here in Africa all FOR FREE..
❤
That was probably expensive postage. What do you do in Africa?
That's amazing!
@@christopherskipp1525 I am now a professor at the University of Nairobi but also a lay leader in my local church
@@joashmigosi1789 Mr. Migosi, the Lord has opened doors for you. Praise HIS Name. Do you have link for the university?
If David was a man after Gods heart, Keith Green sat at his feet. A true Maverick and a man of faith. His message still reverberates through time. Now more than ever, the urgency is real to make amends.
A person never realizes what a a far reaching g impact their ministry has on others. We were missionaries in the Philippines when I first heard his song. What a time of spiritual refreshing I had being ministered to by his ministry.
@@andybethsiders7105
👍
godfrey odhiambo Amen!!
Keith has always brought forth such raw, genuine reverberation in his songs in his walk with Jesus.
Praising him, struggling with times of uncertainty, longing to reach the lost on this earth. I've always been most drawn to his music. Praise the Lord for ministering through him.
if you enjoy his type of spiritual songs. i enjoy them as well but i also enjoy stryper, angelica, contagious, sovereign grave music, david and the giants and petra, idle cure and many others songs that glorify the trinity.
I met Jesus on the 8th March 1987.He delivered me. His light broke into my dark life and set me free. He called me to follow Him THANK YOU JESUS Shortly after this I was given a Keith Green worship tape by an amazing Christian. Keith Green’s Your Love Broke Through is my story
If you are in the Dark and scared and afraid ,there is a way to freedom. Call on the name of Jesus
+derek p thanks a million for your testimony, I was blessed by your info & Keith Green was a 100 fold Christian when he lived here before his death in 1983!!!!
+RonSafreed Actually Keith Green died on July 28, 1982 not 1983!
Sweet. Bless you brother.
Me too... Jesus saved a wretch like me. His love broke through the darkness that held my heart.
Ha! I also surrendered to Christ March 8th but in 1993...Keith's music really blessed and solidified my walk with Christ.
I am a Christian and this song makes me cry every time I listen to because m life completely. a few years when I was 7th grade, I began to stray from God and didn't realize it until I began feeling empty inside. one time I watched a documentary on Keith Green and this song played at the end and it was so convicting because it made me realize how much I had strayed from the LORD and it described my life perfectly. after watching I got back on track and began living for he Lord once again.
Yes! It still moves me to tears all these years later….bless God for this music
This man truly loved Jesus and followed the call to serve Him no matter the cost. Today, when I needed encouragement from the Lord to sustain me through a difficult time, He led me to this song. Thank you Keith for not loving the world, for showing that when you allow the love of Christ to fill you by His Holy Spirit, the world around you is affected. I look forward to seeing you in heaven.
I remember some Christian friends of mine who introduced me to Keith's music when I was a teenager. We were all devastated when he and most of his children died in that plane crash. Their ministry based in Texas sent us records for free since we could not pay for them. I will never forget this man's music and his deep commitment to his faith.
There has never been another one like him.
I agree but Jason Upton gets quite close in my opinion
Rich Mullins is great and I am not comparing the two, but there is none like either of them! They are both so Amazing and the best Christian singers!
He's our modern day John the Baptist along w/John Vernon Mcgee
Wrong mate. King David was just like this:
Wholeheartedly in deeds and song towards God
I was saved in 1980 and weaned on Keith Greenand LDM. I think the only other performer that came even remotely close was the late Rich Mullins. Cut from the same cloth..... Can't wait to worship my Lord God ( with Keith) in heaven. Wow. This is one of my favorite songs EVER.
Does anyone agree that regardless of religious orientation this man is an incredible artist and songwriter?
Religious? No bro ….in love with Jesus, you don’t write songs like these without knowing the one who saved you from hell…..when you know God’s love for you, when you know Him deep in your heart…you want others to know because God is everything, loving God and feeling Him love you back is indescribable Keith’s music does though , it’s a taste of what Jesus can be in your life, He is so amazing and He loves you so so much!✨
The type of sincerity and passion Keith had is missing in todays christian music. Lord send another musical evangelist!
One reason I'm saved today through Keith Greens ministry praise God
Keith Green was a great example of a godly man. Don't worry about Christians - they'll always let you down - they're human after all. Set your eyes on Jesus.
How are you doing, my name is Josh Mark i bring you good news.
I listened to Keith's music when I was a new Christian. Nothing better to help me grow in my faith. Still brings me back to the sweet new love in the Lord!
Keith Green is the greatest Christian musician of the last 50 years.
I grew up in church, got saved young but this song touched my heart when I was 15, and made me weep for joy knowing how much Jesus loved me, after hearing it and many more songs of Keith Green it made me want to read my bible, to know the scripture the songs were based off of. I also subscribed to his newsletter which was like a small magazine, written about the things happen today and how you deal as a christian…..it was NOT churchianity…. It was REAL and Honest and encouraging to me to further seek God and know Him….I am so grateful to Keith Green ministries and their articles….and I can’t wait to hear his new music in heaven one day when we will be with our savior, Jesus worshipping ✨
I met a dear beautiful lady in Fred Meyer, and she helped me with my pregnancy out of wedlock, and led me to Jesus! I'm so glad I met her, and she introduced me to Keith Green's music.
many many years ago I was in the Fresno County Jail for the weekend (long story) during that time I spent there I wrote down the words to this song, I had left the writing on my bunk as we were served our dinner for the evening. Upon my return to my bunk I'd found that the paper was gone. I know in my spirit God used that moment of my incarceration for his GLORY.
Jesus is all over him and He is with Jesus Christ right now, I am jealous. Seeking Jesus here as I live on the earth. His presence, His power, His tangible presence.
I saw Keith in concert for the first time in the late 1970s in a gymnasium. We all sat on the floor around the piano as he played, sang, and testified of God's goodness and love for us. His ministry transformed my life. I remember hearing the news of his death and the deep sorrow that came from that announcement. His music still impacts me. It seems like it was yesterday.
Keith Green was such a part of my Faith journey. In my 60’s now and find Zach Williams same effect. Very different sound but eyes on Jesus! Thank you Lord for the blessings of music 🎶
An intense Christian witness. Even so many years after his passing he is still an inspiration to me.
Keith Green's songs are timeless and transcend generations! His songs glorified God and He lived his life to give all glory and praise to him. Thanks for posting this great worship song! God bless!
Keith Green made a huge impact on my life......I was dating my husband when he and his two beautiful children died in a plane crash.......so sad that the world lost such a Godly man that day........
Thank you for sharing this. Back in 1988 freshman in college, I met the Lord and was inspired by Keith like no other Christian musician. It's been a long road back to the Lord but I'm waking from the dream again. So glad both the Lord and Keith Green are here to welcome me back. Praise you Jesus!
This song came out when i was 17 In 77 im now 62 woooow I was saved in the early 80s .. Dallas Holm was very inspired by the LORD ALSO
I’m so grateful you are back with the Lord…amen!
Ground breaking realisation of God Power. I was saved by a Christian band who were obedient to the Spiritual calling if God. Grateful they were. Praise God at all times.
I turned my back and walked away from Jesus more than 20yrs ago and listening to this song sounded good. Sanity to the insane.
Jesus wants you to come back home
Clearly you are insane to walk away from an eternity of Love, Peace, Joy and Rejoicing :/
My mom listened to him . This man's music has always been present in my life. I really love and miss him. I never met him but I feel like he knows...he KNOWS God in a way I hope I can.
If I could capture in words the moment the love of Jesus and the cross pierced my blindness and filled my heart and mind with light and joy, it would be this song. And I long for the day when I will fully see Him.
Hello how are you doing, my name is Josh Mark i bring you good news.
Keith hit it right on the button!! I was lost in my own intellect until I realized I needed Jesus. He was that missing part my heart needed. I woke up to find Him looking at me with His loving eyes and right through my heart. I was only 18 years old at the time, thirty years ago!! I've never been the same since then. Man's intellect blinds us from understanding God's simple ways. Amen!!!
Like a foolish dreamer, trying to build a highway to the sky
All my hopes would come tumbling down, and I never knew just why
Until today, when you pulled away the clouds that hung like curtains on my eyes
Well I've been blind all these wasted years and I thought I was so wise
But then you took me by surprise
Like waking up from the longest dream, how real it seemed
Until your love broke through
I've been lost in a fantasy, that blinded me
Until your love broke through
All my life I've been searching for that crazy missing part
And with one touch, you just rolled away the stone that held my heart
And now I see that the answer was as easy, as just asking you in
And I am so sure I could never doubt your gentle touch again
It's like the power of the wind
Like waking up from the longest dream, how real it seemed
Until your love broke through
I've been lost in a fantasy, that blinded me
Until your love, until your love, broke through
Thank you
Amen
Timeless All I Need I Already Have!
💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞💞🙏
Thank you! ❤️🙏🏼
Every time I hear his voice I smile. I cannot wait to meet him in heaven
I'll be in that line too!
Me too!!! I remember the day he died and just how devastating it was to a lot of us. Keith planted seeds in me 1978-1982 that are still sprouting and bearing fruit today. ☝️🙏💙
I was 18 when I heard him, my life was changed, I'm 63 now and I keep coming back to listen to one of the purest gifts!
"Keith Green was an intense and radical man of God. He was taken from this Earth at a relatively young age. His legacy lives on through his music and his sermons."
I was so blessed to be a part of this wonderful era in Christianity. We were unashamedly "Jesus People."
Keith Green has had a great impact on me, especially in my younger Christian life. He was so on fire. 🔥
The greatest Christian music singer of all time singing the greatest Christian song of all time. Awesome.
34 years addicted too evry drug ,iam alive and sane ,building on a real reality with my teeth holding on jesus sandals, even this is mercy
Be encouraged!!
What a mighty God we serve. The God of Keith Green lives on. He is the same yesterday today and forever more.
This is my all time favorite Keith Green song!!! Praise be to God for taking the curtains from my eyes and helping me see how much I needed a savior!!
Mine too. So beautiful and true
This is from Phil Keaggy's album "Love broke through".
Amen
I believe that Keith Green and Michael Card are the 2 greatest singing evangelists for the cause of Salvation in the history of mankind. They seem to be closer to and more in love with God than the rest of us. Keith is gone to be with the Lord and he is greatly loved and missed. Michael Card is still here, so if you have not heard of him, start today, and tell friends and enemies to give a listen. I'm in awe of both Keith and Michael.
A genuine Christian who off the temptations of commercialism and compromise. Helped shaped the eighties with a true call to mission and sacrifice. How we need this same call today! He was the "Real deal".
Amen. I've been praying God would raise up someone like Keith. So much now is performance.
You probably already know him, but Jason Upton is our modern version of Keith IMHO. Preaches from both behind the piano, and has a call to lay down our lives for the cause of making Jesus known globally . He's been the pioneer of modern prophetic worship for a long while now. You should check him out.
Phat Stringz does Jason Upton charge for his music?
George Valco
Great
He was the real deal. His powerful nature and spirit, Christ given of course, spoke to me and fortified me as a young and growing Christian. His music speaks to me today as it did then, and today with the contrast of what Christian music is out there, I have to say... His Christian credibility is unmatched. These new singers-- 97% just do not have it from their core to be breathing Gods words in to what their bodies are manifesting. Keith did this. I am so thankful to Claudia Thomas (who at the time resided on Calais Rd. in Mendham, NJ who was a 'friend' of my Mom's) she was a Christian like very few I had ever met (this is in April, 1980) She lit a fire in me to be real about my faith. I went to church with her and her family.... Felt a bit odd because it was so charismatic-- Not like the Presbyterian church I was going to-- which too was Christian, I do not fault that church... But for the dynamic nature of faith being expressed through daily life... WOW, the kind of Christianity called for by Keith to be a sincere follower of Christ, Claudia Thomas had it. When I went away to college for my last two years to UNC Charlotte, I met a girl, Laura Johnson. We ended up dating, but she brought me a Keith Green cassette for my car, so I could listen to him (I didn't have a personal anything to play the tape, just my player in my car... We weren't so spoiled like we are today back then)... His music spoke to me like nothing else ever had. Today it is no different. I put on his music and in no time tears. Tears that say, wash yourself and go out in the day and be there for people in your path. Be there to hug, and make people feel His REAL love! So, I do. It's awesome.
if you don't like this music, you have no heart, Keith Green sings from his heart to the Creator...
As a songwriter I can say in total confidence this man believes in his efforts and message..... I dig his drive and true focus.... its spiritual gold
This song takes me back to freshman year of high school, when I would ride the bus to school every morning. I would listen to this song, and other songs by Keith Green. I remember feeling like the world was so hostile at that time, especially since it was right after 9/11. And I felt like God was the only hope and comfort, the only answer to the madness all around me. I had the impulse to listen to this song tonight, probably for the first time in 15 years or so. I forgot how much it meant to me! It was like a hug from God. For many years I think I had forgotten what it was like to see God as a loving Father, and only recently have I started coming around on this.
This is one of the most HONEST and greatest songs ever written!!!! Amazing singer.
he is one of the best.
Just today, I was driving around, listening to Keith Green. His voice reminded me of a song I heard years ago, but I had trouble remembering the words and I didn't know the name of the song. So I grabbed my phone and tried to Google the few words of the song I could recall. After about five minutes, my search failed to turn up any song. So I gave up for the time being and set my phone down. Literally a few seconds later, this song began playing. When he reached the chorus, I realized it was THE song I had been trying to find. I got teary-eyed. It was God speaking to me through the song. I really needed to hear the words to this song, not because I wanted to remember the song, but because my heart needed to hear Him speak to me. He was singing over me. I can't tell you adequately how wonderful it felt. But, I did briefly feel horrible. Horrible because earlier I had been in a rather bad mood (difficult drivers, to be kind about it). But I didn't believe He had forgiven me. I KNEW He had.
That brother is still a blessing. Just as when I started my walk 44 years ago. I long to see the Lord and the servants that have kept me alive all these years. Come quickly Lord Jesus
PAPA GOD sent HOLY GHOST to touch me on CHRISTMAS EVE in 1972! GLORY! I woke up CHRISTMAS MORNING, BORN AGAIN! HALLELUJAH! ❤️✝️❤️
Celebrating the 50th year since JESUS' LOVE BROKE THROUGH! THANK YOU DEAR LORD! 🎄🙏🏼🙌🏼👏🏼❤️
One of my favorite Christian songs. The truth of the lyrics resonates with us who have had a similar experience in God's love touching us.
My first christian album in the 70s ,!!! Completely changed my life thru Christ!!
Was born after Bro. Keith went on to be with the Lord, but I grew up on his songs. Him and Matthew Ward had/have some of the most distinctive voices. "So You Wanna Go Back To Egypt" one of my favorites from Bro. Keith. ❤😊
It's gonna be so great when the family of God is united in eternity singing praises to King Jesus! ❤😭❤
THIS IS TRULY the love song of all those touched by the Love and sacrificial GRACE of the Lord Jesus Christ.
no one, ... NO ONE can Love you like Jesus. ... and HE IS THE ONE Who brings forgiveness and imparts immortality by the Holy Spirit.
Still so good, a great reminder - thank you for surrendering to God, Keith. It’s been a great reference through three years so far of how important it is to build my own relationship with Christ. Time is limited on this earth.
I grew up in my teens listening to this man.Truly a inspiration then & now that I am older.RIP brother.See you in heaven.
Perhaps the most intimate, beautiful love song to Jesus in our time.
So true
Keith’s life inspired me and God used Keith’s (all sold out to Jesus and for Jesus) to draw me closer to Him. I started going to Elmbrook Church in 1995 and Keith’s words came back to me about “Jesus junk” as well as other teachings.
My theme song of my conversion and 40 years later the Lord has brought me back to it. Thank you for your Faithfulness. Maranatha!!
Keith Green's legacy is a profound inspiration for living a life of utter devotion to God.
I can't believe how much Keith has made a impact on so many, I discovered him a year after he left us. His music was just what I needed to grow and mature very fast for the situation I was in during my early teens. I am yet to meet or see anyone with his passion not just for real CHRISTIAN music (not what the Companies are pushing on us) but for the lost.
My mom introduced me to Keith Green. But I didn't really listen to his music until I was older. Oh man! Thank you Lord!
Such a timeless song! The Lord continues to speak thru this song. Praise God!
I was introduced to the music of Keith Green when I joined my church youth group back in 1984. I instantly loved his music. He had so much to offer. Why do the great people die so soon? My favorite album is "For him who has ears to hear" RIP Keith and God bless...
Keith Green, Randy Stonehill & Phil Keaggy. 3 brothers in the lord who still were at the beginning of the Christian music movement and still inspire us..Thank you lord for bringing these men to us..
Im a backsliden Christian...can't even listen to this...i think i'm the seed that got choked out...many will come to me on that day...
My favourite Keith Green song. Took me a while to properly listen to the lyrics. So so beautiful.
What an accurate depiction of God's love.
AimingForGod so desperately need a revelation of God's love. Deep in my soul. Been praying for this. I know it's possible.
But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us. Ephesians 2:4
Keith Green Used his Gift from God! And today the song still moves me!
Until your love broke through...this man knew the Lord...Those "words" ring so loud and clear to me, because I remember when the Lord's love broke though to me too !!!! My prayer is that you to will experience Jesus in this way.
Saw Keith in LA a month before he was taken home. His music was such a blessing and conviction in my early walk with Jesus. Loved getting Last Days Newsletter in the mail!!
My wife of 38 years is in heaven now-- there's a glad reunion ahead for me, seeing all who have gone before me! Thank You Jesus!
Thanks to the LORD JESUS CHRIST , I heard or should I say I remember this song at the age of 5 years old in 1980 from my precious mother who taught me about the SON of GOD . And to this day Keith Green still makes me cry when I listen to this song because of JESUS CHRIST . All praise and glory to the MOST HIGH , The NAME Above ALL NAMES , JESUS CHRIST , YESHUA . Thank you Lord Jesus for everyone and everything you put in my LIFE . AMEN!
What a voice !! I can picture Keith in my mind singing to the Lord, with a sold out crowd in heaven. Thank you Lord for my brother Keith, and his awesome music.
A psalmist and prophetic singer for sure. Highly anointed,and totally souled out. What an inspiration. It was an honor to be introduced to his music in my youth. The lord used it to carry me straight into adulthood
One of the best contemporary christian artists that there ever was. He was as much a preacher as he was a musician :)
What an encouragement to hear Keith praising our awesome God in song all these years later! This is the right use of the internet!
❤😊 Keith Green uses talents for the Lord what a blessing 🙏❤
Thank you Lord for giving us men and women like Keith Green. 🙏🏽
God has really stirred my heart with Keith's music lately. I hadn'tlistened to him for a decade or more. I am thanking God for his ministry that is still being used.
If you haven't watched Keith's story, do so. Yahweh implanted a passion and zeal in him that, we as believers, should exhibit daily. Keith's music encourages me and humbles me and makes me ever so thankful for Yeshua's sacrifice and love for me. I was searching for YEARS with drugs and alcohol. His love truly broke through, I now have a beautiful wife and two wonderful children. Only the love from our Messiah will keep us contempt. Prepare, He is returning.
Keith green is one of the reasons I want to play the piano. praise the lord!

Please pray for my daughters! Both prodigals. Running from Jesus.
When I need to prepare for a sermon, there are few ministers who renew my focus on Christ like bro. Keith Green. Though home with the Lord since I was a boy, he still speaks!
When I heard this song for the first time, I was young in the Lord. I knew this song was talking about ME. I was a young teenager then thinking that I knew it all; that I was so wise and I saw everyone else below me. But I was so wrong; I was so full of myself but couldn't see it! While listening to the song, suddenly, I felt like I woke up and saw myself just like God saw me. I realized that my thoughts and ideas were all wrong! I felt like God was taking out my old heart and putting in a new one. He was telling me that my thoughts and ideas had to line up with His thoughts and ideas so that I could be a vessel of honor for His use. And that He would show me how it could be done. That day I became the happiest teenager alive who had been given a new chance at living a new life for the Lord. I will never forget that day! Thank you, Lord, for opening my eyes to see that without You I am nothing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I just want to Praise the Lord when I hear Keith songs! Love this song!
a father's day gift for me today (here in south africa).... my personal fav. so powerful. keith's music and writings had a powerful influence on my life in the years up to and beyond his death. thank you keith. thanks God! thanks melody for keeping Lat Days Ministry alive
this is one of the best songs ever.
This is one of my favorite christian songs and no one sings it better than Keith Green.
I also like the song when sung by Phil Keaggy and Randy Stonehill.
I agree that Keith was more than a musician - he gave his whole heart to witnessing for the Lord Jesus Christ.
I was also a big fan of "Last Days Ministries" and I'm glad Keith was a big influence in my early walk with the Lord. I gave my heart to Jesus and got save in 1980 not too long before Keith went to be with the Lord.
