For some reason, Britt's songs always help me whenever I'm sad, anxious, or scared. I thank her for making such calming and uplifting songs for not only me but other people as well. And, I have a job interview in a few hours... I'm absolutely mortified.
+Amy Ruchian it's just a boost for the people who don't believe in themselves. they have to take a step outside of their comfort zone and it will happen RIGHT NOW. they won't get hurt, they won't crumble down. they will hopefully get hope and courage from this song.
In our generation now ..We need GOD ..Temptations are everywhere Thats why dont stay away from God instead draw more closer to him..He is the only one we need ,,specially to the young people like me.. God bless Us !!
amen. britt keep up the good, christian music. your song gold saved my friends life. now she she knows she know shes worth more than gold and god loves her know matter what. bye Rachel r.
you are right, i have been through many trials and tribulations, and i still believe. God provides if you keep believing, because i didn't not qualify for free lunch and breakfast and then a week or two later one of my teachers talked to me and she talked to another teacher and she is letting me get free lunch and breakfast. God is awesome :D
i am lost. i have been lost for a while. i just turned 12 and im doing terrible in school. my dad is a teacher at the school i go to. i feel like he overworking me. i feel like everyone knows me but only as his daughter. this song inspired me to try hard, do well, and prove my dad wrong. i hope i make my goals in life and do the best at what i decide to be when i get older. everybody is who they want to be and i dont judge. im a friend to all who like being proud of who they really are. god bless all.
Allan Levy Hey! Your gonna get through it! I know this was posted a year ago, but you may still be facing these troubles...? Or even knew ones... Pray to the Lord for guidance in your troubles...! Faith and trust is the way . Deuteronomy 31:8 " The Lord himself goes before you and will be with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you. Do not be afraid ; do not be discouraged." This is so true! Recently, at camp I learned that Hope sees that God heals and hope sees that God saves. If you are not already saved by Jesus, that is the first step you should take... (John 14:16) Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me." He also heals, like I said... God is there and hears your prayers.... He is there to heal your heart and your situations...
yea there are always troubles. 7th grade was even worse. ive gone to church for years and prayed to god, all i ever asked was that he showed me guidance and that he pick me up when i fall. so far no response from him and no signs but i know he will come through for me. i moved into a new place and wasnt very happy. my parents split and so did me and my sis. life has been pretty hard with bullying and home issues, but somehow im still standing. thank you for the feedback i really appreciate it. -maggie
I am glad you still strive to trust in the Lord. Don't give up.... Things happen for a reason... Jeremiah 29:11 " For I know the plans I have for you," declares the Lord, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, pans to give you a hope and a future." He's got big plans for your life, don't give up
that is so amazing and inspiring to hear!! :) i found christ last year and met christian friends & god healed me from my past and i find comfort in god. and same i have learnt to not be afraid & even if you are just go for it! :)
I found out this song by just youtubing her. I love her songs. She has a creative mind, you can just tell that by the way she can make her songs. God blesss britt nicole that she keeps on making these inspiring songs. They help people who don't know God. If you know someone like that, first thing you should do is play this some for them and explain it. Tell them what each line means, and that Jesus died on the cross for US!!! How amazing is that?!? He did that out of love for us God bless
I love this song! It always reminds me to stay strong. I may not fit in with the popular kids at school but I stand out for my God! I let my light shine for him! I want to stand out and make a difference! ~W.O.G~
God is always there. God has created us, loved us, & neverendlingly gives us hope & makes us stronger. the least we can do for Him is to tell everyone we know about Him. to expand His kingdom. to save your non-believer friends & family. Jesus is someone everyone deserves to know about. give someone Jesus. change their lives. Great message whoeover created this lyrics for this song
I was having a bit of a breakdown because, well, my body's crying to me that it needs food but I know that if I were to try and eat it suddenly wouldn't accept it. I'm crying with happiness because, well, I happened to find this and I really needed it. It's right. I should keep going. Somebody out there needs me. I might know who they are, or I might not. The truth is that SOMEONE out there needs me. Thank you.
So inspirational!! Words so true they are felt as spoken from my own heart. Truth that come from only one; OUR GOD IN HEAVEN ABOVE!!! Thank you for standing!
Wow! I was just now listening to an interview with Britt where she said that exact same verse was the inspiration for her song ,"Hanging On!" That's too weird. I needed that verse so bad right now. Thank you for being a vessel for God.
I know how it feels..I've lost a lot in my life and im the one who my friends come to for advice, but when i need it, theres no one there. I don't show my emotions. I don't cry. no one had really ever seen me cry. but now i have a complete worst life. I cry when no ones looking if something upset me, and things upset me easier. I dont cry myself to sleep cause its not worth it. I dont cut my self either...but i did try to stop my friend...just know that your not alone. Stay strong.
I'm sorry, I really appreciate your inspirational post, it's just kind of funny... I went with my friend to church for the first time last week, and unthinkingly wore a shirt that said "omg"... someone really did hit me with a bible.
MY FRIEND GOT FOUND IN CHRIST AND NOW SHES GOING TO CHURCH WITH ME I LEARNED A LESSON BE YOUR SELF DONT BE AFRAID TO STAND OUT DONT BE SCARED REACH HEIGHTS DROP YOUR FEARS LIVE OUT YOUR DREAM DONT TRY TO BE LIKE THE OTHER KIDS BE WHO GOD MADE YOU TO BE I HAD TO LEARN THAT THE HARD WAY BUT NOW EVERY ONE LOVES ME I HAVE BEST FRIENDS AND I HAVE A NORMAL CHRISTIAN LIFE WITH A FAMILY AND FRIENDS :)
britt, ur beautiful. ur an amazing artist who has saved sooo many lives. im so blessed to have songs from you and so many other talented artists in my life. thank you and GOD BLESS.
I'm going through alot right now, just with everything and sometimes I think about life and wonder "is it really worth being here?", and then i hear songs like this and I feel like God picks me back up and guides me through, songs like these really touch my heart.
love this song this beautiful its life in a song its for every boy or girl thats preaches this song this is love at its finest this shows care i love her we are all gods children and she knows that i love her she speaks to me god put everyone here for a purpose and hers is to show people love compasion and be an amazing role model
you know when she says there's a man who's faith is dying well thats me but I'm not a man I'm a girl I've lost faith with the lord but I want to worship him again
i love this song it inspires so many people to let the world see what they have tho offer and let their light shine.. like they say if you got a blessing dont waste it.....
I know somewhat how you feel. I don't have someone who I lost, but I was taken away from my parents and they now want nothing to do with me. Here's what I do. I pray to God, read His word, and somehow I feel a little better. Sometimes I also find songs with lyrics that I would sing to them if given the oppurtunity like "words I would say." I also have a favorite bible verse: Romans 8:28 that reassures me. Do these things and I will also keep you in my prayers. God loves you!!!
I know this sounds weird. But that's really inspiring, especially for you to say that to people that you know could tear you down you for being a different religion.
GIRLS!!! you are all BEAUTIFUL LOVED BY GOD WANTED AND WORTH ANYONES TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! regardless of your past you can move on. regardless of who yoou WERE you are no longer her....GOD love you for YOU! hes does NOT judge....ive been in bad stops...i cut and wanted to die but guess what.....GOD pulled me thru it....he brought my best friend into my life and used him to show me love GOD LOVES YOU
its about when your lost and feel alone like no one cares to have faith in god and he will set your heart free and bring the things u desire that are missing in you life into your hands as long as you have faith in him and ask him for help i lost the man of my dreams over a stupid fight the courts wont let us see each other i lost him 7 years ago i cant lose him again its time to put my faith in gods hands only he can bring him home to me now i love you danny
That's good, LPS. I know you don't believe but I think it's a feeling of relief knowing you have God watching over them, even those who aren't wandering the planet anymore. You don't have to major major believe, but it's good your praying. :3
@Katherine, That's awesome! I think some ppl get so angry because they feel a pull in their own heart & fight against it and take it out on us. Likewise not all Christians or believers are all fire & brimstone condemners, some of us actually practice the love & grace we preach. Thats what wins ppl not 'youre going to hell'
This song helped save my life, I thought and started to commit suicide. But, then I listened to this song over over and it made me relize that lots of people have been in my situation & I can help them..... THANK YOU !!!!!!!!!!!
God doesn't hate you his love for you doesn't depend on what you do it's all about his son who died for your sins. It took me a while to learn that thru the good and the bad and even when I sin God still loves me
God is in your heart he is the perfect spiritual guide to heaven meanwhile your parents are you physical and spiritual guides to heaven. Dont give up on yourself. You are the best u could be and you can still be the very best. I have had many people surrounding me to help thrt watever reasons.
*gives you a hug* I don't see why people would hate you. your being honest. I don't hate you and im a Christian, doesn't matter chicka. don't worry if people hate you(which I bet no one does), its called life. you were giving this life because you were strong enough to live it. stay strong girly
When I was 9 I got baptised. I had a huge faith in God... During the last three years so much has happened in my life that I just walked away... Last June, I met a guy that wasn't a Christain and we started to date, eventually he brought me back to God along with himself.
Don't worry you aren't the only one. I'm in love with all her songs, and I'm an atheist. My dad always makes judgmental comments about it, but I block him out. haha. I respect you for being brave enough to post this on here.(:
Great job Chelly 64..I see mostly good testimonies here, so please don't let one or two bad apples mess with you...Keep on doing what you evidently enjoy...Besides the real world is full enuff of critics..
It doesnt have to change anything, its all up to you how you feel about the song. The song doesnt have to make you feel like its about god, it could make you feel like how someone you know could have been going through a rough time and didnt know what to do so they stayed away from people that could help them and then realised that they need help and came back to those that love/cherish/and want to help them.
For some reason, Britt's songs always help me whenever I'm sad, anxious, or scared. I thank her for making such calming and uplifting songs for not only me but other people as well. And, I have a job interview in a few hours... I'm absolutely mortified.
I'm so proud of you! How did it go, 7 years later? You saw.. you always had it in you to make it this far. God loves you!
This song seriously says more than I could ever say to someone who needs to know to never give up.
"Don't feel afraid to stand out!!" Everybody is different in their own way..... Be urself even if u think u wont fit in
Amen! Everyone needs that confidence! they get it now in Jesus's Name!
+Amy Ruchian it's just a boost for the people who don't believe in themselves. they have to take a step outside of their comfort zone and it will happen RIGHT NOW. they won't get hurt, they won't crumble down. they will hopefully get hope and courage from this song.
Again, Amen! tht's more than a boost, its a miracle and gratifying fact! i hope they do too, cuz a lot of ppl need this
+Amy Ruchian Amen
I try that.
It doesn't work.
WHAT HAS THE WORLD COME TO
Britt Nichole is a huge inspiration to me.
Brooki Lover saME

You spelled nicole wrong
I’m listening in 2019

In our generation now ..We need GOD ..Temptations are everywhere Thats why dont stay away from God instead draw more closer to him..He is the only one we need ,,specially to the young people like me..
God bless Us !!
We are God's People and we have to Stand up Spread Our Kings Gospel And help The lost Find God

honestly I didn't know she was a Christian Singer. but now that I know, I love her 10 times more
I accidentally press the replay button this song is addicting
you know when she says there's a man who's faith is dying well thats me but I'm not a man I'm a girl I've lost faith with the lord but I want to worship him again
Katherine morales same
Go for it :D
run back to Him, He wants you back and He loves you so much, please don't loose faith, the Lord is truly the carrier of all our burdens
Don’t try too hard, you can’t force faith to happen. Just let it go, if that’s the path you’re meant to be on it’ll come back to you.
Just call on Jesus when you are weary.
Peter 5:7
Cast your cares on to him because he cares for you.
I never thought christian music could be so good (: now I'm proud to be a christian (:
Wow Britt Nicole is an incredible singer she's such an encouragement.
i dedicate this song to everyone
i love this song it inspires so many people to let the world see what they have tho offer and let their light shine.. like they say if you got a blessing dont waste it.....
Happy Sunday! I love this song!! 🎵🎶💙🙏
Darlin, you're in the realm of Britt Nicole now. We don't hate, we love. :)
I've remembered the first part of this song FOR YEARS
I was once lost but the angels came kept me going!
The angels that keep you going
The angels that keep us going
The angels that make us
Beautiful
I know somewhat how you feel. I don't have someone who I lost, but I was taken away from my parents and they now want nothing to do with me. Here's what I do.

I put this song and sing it every day!!! I never get tired of it!!!!
I know this sounds weird.
But that's really inspiring, especially for you to say that to people that you know could tear you down you for being a different religion.
GIRLS!!! you are all BEAUTIFUL LOVED BY GOD WANTED AND WORTH ANYONES TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! regardless of your past you can move on. regardless of who yoou WERE you are no longer her....GOD love you for YOU! hes does NOT judge....ive been in bad stops...i cut and wanted to die but guess what.....GOD pulled me thru it....he brought my best friend into my life and used him to show me love
GOD LOVES YOU
Thank you for this comment!! It was so true and really touched my heart😊😊❤
I'm agnostic and I'm more leaning into not believing, but I love this song sooooo much!!!
love cis song !! dont let your lights go down..shine bright!!
I think it's good there's a Christian artist who aims for that younger female audience who truly need the influence of God's strength in their lives.
I was lost once, but God showed the way back onto the right path :)
Beautiful!!! Shine His Light!!!
5 years later and this song still owns my heart
its about when your lost and feel alone like no one cares to have faith in god and he will set your heart free and bring the things u desire that are missing in you life into your hands as long as you have faith in him and ask him for help i lost the man of my dreams over a stupid fight the courts wont let us see each other i lost him 7 years ago i cant lose him again its time to put my faith in gods hands only he can bring him home to me now i love you danny
That's good, LPS. I know you don't believe but I think it's a feeling of relief knowing you have God watching over them, even those who aren't wandering the planet anymore. You don't have to major major believe, but it's good your praying. :3
An inspiring song for those who feel weak... GOD BLESS US ALL
@Katherine, That's awesome! I think some ppl get so angry because they feel a pull in their own heart & fight against it and take it out on us. Likewise not all Christians or believers are all fire & brimstone condemners, some of us actually practice the love & grace we preach. Thats what wins ppl not 'youre going to hell'
there's a really big world at your fingertips and you know you have the chance to change it
Thank you Britt Nicole for showing me how to go along the way I here this song when my parents are fighting
This is who I want to be when I grow up
pikiachw Cutie x Pie I love your user photo!
Thanks :)
Britt Nicole inspires my daughters each and everyday god bless Britt nicole❤️and everything she does for everyone
This song helped save my life, I thought and started to commit suicide. But, then I listened to this song over over and it made me relize that lots of people have been in my situation & I can help them..... THANK YOU !!!!!!!!!!!
I am atheist too. I love all her songs. You're not the only one. :)
Wonderful, amazing, inspiring, beautiful- as always!
Britt Nicole makes amazing songs! Keep going Britt!
Its more about a relationship with Him than it is about how the world was made. I'm praying you and many others don't waste their life without God
God is everywhere
This songs moves me! I love it, it's really helps me believe that I'm worthless and I have the power to change lives trough God
Wow, I only found these guys yesterday and I'm already in love with their music.
You no get Hate. You get immense amount of Love and Respect.
thanks so much it helps to know that im not alone. thanks and remember to stay strong urself
God doesn't hate you his love for you doesn't depend on what you do it's all about his son who died for your sins. It took me a while to learn that thru the good and the bad and even when I sin God still loves me
God is in your heart he is the perfect spiritual guide to heaven meanwhile your parents are you physical and spiritual guides to heaven. Dont give up on yourself. You are the best u could be and you can still be the very best. I have had many people surrounding me to help thrt watever reasons.
*gives you a hug* I don't see why people would hate you. your being honest. I don't hate you and im a Christian, doesn't matter chicka. don't worry if people hate you(which I bet no one does), its called life. you were giving this life because you were strong enough to live it. stay strong girly
I love this song and Britt Nicole! :) I also love her song Gold and Stand. +--
love you britt! great voice and thx for the great songs!
Great song I hear it every day!
When I was 9 I got baptised. I had a huge faith in God... During the last three years so much has happened in my life that I just walked away... Last June, I met a guy that wasn't a Christain and we started to date, eventually he brought me back to God along with himself.
i love this song so much and it was awesome
Granted Britt rocks, but thank GOD for giving her the words and the courage and opportunities to sing this song. GOD saves lives.
So true! Amen! Young People NEED JESUS!!
Don't worry you aren't the only one. I'm in love with all her songs, and I'm an atheist. My dad always makes judgmental comments about it, but I block him out. haha. I respect you for being brave enough to post this on here.(:
I love this song it really inspired me to not be afraid to be myself:D
Don't. Ever let god out of your life he is amazing ,also love all of your songs your singing is amazing
Great job Chelly 64..I see mostly good testimonies here, so please don't let one or two bad apples mess with you...Keep on doing what you evidently enjoy...Besides the real world is full enuff of critics..
It doesnt have to change anything, its all up to you how you feel about the song. The song doesnt have to make you feel like its about god, it could make you feel like how someone you know could have been going through a rough time and didnt know what to do so they stayed away from people that could help them and then realised that they need help and came back to those that love/cherish/and want to help them.
One of my favorite songs! Love it so much!
