I don't think you understand the actual underlying message of this song... It's not about praising God for a wife, it's about praising the wife instead of God. 👋😐 Hallelujah literally means "praise YHWH", "praise God". To say someone is your hallelujah is to lift them up above the worship of the Living God from whom all blessings flow. Those blessings would include a wife. Replacing the worship of God with a wife essentially turns them into an idol and prevents you from being able to obey the greatest commandment - to love the Lord your God with all your heart. That's why the artist says; "You're my glimpse of Kingdom come"... "you got me touching heaven"... A wife from the Lord is a gift from heaven but she is not the Kingdom. Neither is she heaven. She can't measure up to those standards. But she does measure up to what God made her to be, a helper and a co-inheritor of the blessings of the Kingdom, of Heaven.
I’ve been diagnosed in 2016 with stage 3 malignant melanoma cancer and re-diagnosed with stage 4 malignant melanoma this 2018 year. My children Nina and Anthony are my glimpse of heaven. I listen to this song every day and start my day out with a good cry and a heart filled with love. I am truly blessed. Thank you for a great song.
This song was played last Saturday at my daughters one wedding when she was walking down the aisle with her dad. It brings tears to my eyes every time I hear it, and it was perfect for that day❤️
You touched places in souls that were hurting, traumatized and reinvigorated those pains to bring us back to breath and life...and most importantly, love. This is a classic...this album will forever be our favourite and played for all years of our lives...thank you for helping us learn to follow our hearts to love, and love again...to hear and feel and sense what love sounds like, feels like and can be. Namaste.
😭😭😭 I didn't expect this one 😧. JS your music takes me to this quiet , warm, and plush place deep within me where I can worship Christ with full raw emotions. I weep. I laugh. I weep somemore! 🙌🙌🙌 I'm gonna go hug my babies now! So thankful for the blessing that they are.
I have never heard a song about love as poignant, true, and frankly, tear-inducing as "Touching Heaven." They bring all us listeners right into their little glimpse of heaven, especially at the end, when their little Joaquin sings along and matches pitch with his mama's beautiful voice. Sometimes, my soul needs to be reconnected with the music, and this did it. Thanks, yall!
Donna Summer's daughter... oh ya... they sound sooooo good together. My God I hadn't heard such a song in forever. Beautiful! Magnificent! Perfection! My soul cried out tears of pure JOY🌸
Man, I was a hopeless romantic when I discovered Johnnyswim maybe 6 or 7 years ago. I was young and hopeful. Now there's so much to fovus on in my life in my late twenties trying to figure out too many things with no idea what I am doing and thought I should check out what they been up to. Glad I paused and listened to this
When I first heard this song last night on the album, I immediately knew that I had finally found the song that I'm going to dance to on my wedding day. SO BEAUTIFUL 😍
I decided the day I heard this song that this would be my first dance song with my husband when I get married 🙋🏾♀️💁🏾♀️ lol, I'm still single, but this song still speaks to my heart 😍😍
Ellspressions this what my husband and I danced to for our first dance! I tear up every time but I was all smiles dancing with him. Everyone else was crying though. It’s a beautiful song.
Got to see y’all last night in Hickory, NC. You two, I so enjoyed your music. When y’all decided to come up into the cheaper seats and sing was pretty special, right there beside us. I guess I’d never heard of ya because sounds like y’all are family focused which is great. Thank you for coming to Hickory. It was a blessing to get to hear your music.
On May 9th, 2019 I got to walk out of the church my husband grew up in with this song playing, in front of close friends and family. It was perfect. Thank you Jesus & thank you johnnyswim❤️
How could you not fall in love with this duet? We have been married 55 years and our song has been Van Morrison's " Have I Told You Lately That I Love You. That song has now been replaced with " Touching Heaven ". My hallelujah is my best friend and lovely wife,Carol(MeMe) This song brings tears to my eyes everytime I play it. Hopefully we will attend a johnnyswim concert somewhere near Philly.
I dedicate this song to my fiancé. I've had always wanted to see him everyday of my life since the first day we met in 10th grade. Since the first time I saw him there was something that made me feel different. Just a glimpse of an eye it's like our souls had touched. 💘
I will cherish every experience I will have with my family and God . I know he will be with me in this new chapter I am about to start. God thank you sooo much for this blessing.
I play this 4 my baby girl 2 wake up 2 in the morning, she is a happy girl. I also played it 4 her when I was pregnant and she would move all around. Thank u 4 a wonderfully beautiful sung song that is a blessing 2 the 🌍
I got married last May (2021) and I walked down the isle to this song. I wish it could have played through out our entire evening. It’s just that beautiful of a song! I cry every time I hear it now. Thank you for making amazing and meaningful music!
All I see are angels All these streets are gold That lead to you If touching love is touching God No wonder I'm in heaven, when I'm holding you Simple as a song, a melody repeating in this heart I don't know when the chorus came Where I heard it first, or when it started I won't be holding my breath for chariots I'm not just waiting for skies to part You've been my glimpse of Kingdom right from the start And you got me touching heaven, ooo Got me touching heaven, ooo So tell me what you're dreaming, tell me what it is Your dream come true I don't need a map to find a hidden treasure There, ain't no hiding you I won't be holding my breath for chariots I'm not just waiting for skies to part You've been my glimpse of Kingdom right from the start And you got me touching heaven, ooo Got me touching heaven, ooo Got me touching heaven You're my hallelujah You're my hallelujah Yes you are You're my hallelujah You're my hallelujah Yes you are Hallelujah You're my hallelujah You're my hallelujah Yeah And you got me touching heaven, ooo You're my hallelujah, ooo You got me You're my hallelujah You're my hallelujah Yes you are Hallelujah, hallelujah If touching love is touching God No wonder I'm in heaven when I'm holding you You're my hallelujah You're my hallelujah You're my hallelujah You're my hallelujah You're my hallelujah You're my hallelujah You're my hallelujah Yes you are And you got me touching heaven
I just listened to this song for the first time and I'm in love! This has renewed my hope of finding my godly man, that soulmate of mine that just hasn't quite made it to me.
I first saw you on Kathie Lee & Hooda today. You both compliment each other and make great music together. I enjoy your music and style very much. You now have a new fan from So. California. Best wishes on your tour, 2017.
Amazing.... I just said goodbye to my soul mate as he left back to his country... but it's only another 6 weeks until we are together, I am going to move to Mexico! This song just fills me with so much happiness and gratitude for the future, as I know it will be incredible. He is the most incredible human being I have ever had the honour of loving and being loved by ❤️
Heard this song when I was pregnant and thought we’d be seeing Lauren Diagle and Johnnyswim in concert (thanks to Covid we didn’t get to see them 🙄). This was on our labor playlist and the song I asked my husband to play right when our son was born and in my arms. This was the first song we sang to him and we still sing it with him today (19months). God is so good. Thanks you Lord for our beautiful boy!
I saw them in concert last night. I'd never heard of them. Good grief, they were awesome! Both have fantastic pipes and their chemistry with each other just oozed.
My son and daughter in-love used this song in their wedding video. One of the best, most touching songs I have ever heard. A song that you genuinely feel in your heart!
I know most people feel deeply about there partner when they hear this but for me it just warms me up with thoughts of my daughter. I'm so lucky to have been blessed with her thank you God.
Just getting home afew minutes ago from seeing them in concert, they sung this song....there are no words to express this experience called Johnnyswim. Hope that everyone can see them one day in person.
Still preparing. I will keep my eyes on you Father. How excellent you are. I'm amazed daily at how you love me in spite of me. Thank you. Perfect my love for YOU Father. Only then will I know how to love him and others. 🙏
This was our first dance at our wedding! Thank you both for your beautiful music!
Just heard this song for the first time today, Sunday, July 28, 2024 and I can’t stop listening to it. God, you are my hallelujah.
I play this song for my baby girl in my belly everyday. She likes it, she starts wiggling in there. She’s my hallelujah 💕
Love that you are feeling the love ❤️ for your precious baby.
Once again raises the question, how are these artists not getting enough recognition !!?! Luv this!
Anytime you can praise the Lord with a hallelujah( highest praise) for your spouse, that's a wrap!
Amen! Blessed.

I can't imagine a day celebrating a connection so divine, a purpose fulfilled.....and this song not be there. Leave me to my dreams...I'll wait.
How does this song NOT have millions of views!?!?

Wonderful music...... the love between the two of you truly comes across in your music
I could cry... I don't know how this got in my recommendations but I'm glad I gave it a chance ❤❤❤
All I see are angels
All these streets are gold
That lead to you
If touching love is touching God
No wonder I'm in heaven, when I'm holding you
Simple as a song, a melody repeating in this heart
I don't know when the chorus came
Where I heard it first, or when it started
I won't be holding my breath for chariots
I'm not just waiting for skies to part
You've been my glimpse of Kingdom right from the start
And you got me touching heaven, ooo
Got me touching heaven, ooo
So tell me what you're dreaming, tell me what it is
Your dream come true
I don't need a map to find a hidden treasure
There, ain't no hiding you
I won't be holding my breath for chariots
I'm not just waiting for skies to part
You've been my glimpse of Kingdom right from the start
And you got me touching heaven, ooo
Got me touching heaven, ooo
Got me touching heaven
You're my hallelujah
You're my hallelujah
Yes you are
You're my hallelujah
You're my hallelujah
Yes you are
Hallelujah
You're my hallelujah
You're my hallelujah
Yeah
And you got me touching heaven, ooo
You're my hallelujah, ooo
You got me
You're my hallelujah
You're my hallelujah
Yes you are
Hallelujah, hallelujah
If touching love is touching God
No wonder I'm in heaven when I'm holding you
You're my hallelujah
You're my hallelujah
You're my hallelujah
You're my hallelujah
You're my hallelujah
You're my hallelujah
You're my hallelujah
Yes you are
And you got me touching heaven
I don't care what time of day it is, this song will always hit the spot
My husband and love this song so much! I walked down the aisle to this song and our worship leader & his wife sang this song as I walked down.
I just listened to this song for the first time and I'm in love! This has renewed my hope of finding my godly man, that soulmate of mine that just hasn't quite made it to me.
He's on his way hun!
"3months ago".
I'm with you! They are coming. Stay faithful!
I first saw you on Kathie Lee & Hooda today. You both compliment each other and make great music together. I enjoy your music and style very much. You now have a new fan from So. California. Best wishes on your tour, 2017.
Amazing.... I just said goodbye to my soul mate as he left back to his country... but it's only another 6 weeks until we are together, I am going to move to Mexico! This song just fills me with so much happiness and gratitude for the future, as I know it will be incredible.
