so this song was played at my brothers funeral. Both my brother and I had are battles with drugs and alcohol he died cause of this horrible disease. It brought me to me knees when my pastor and I shared the good news of the gospel with and he shed a tear. My brother was clinically brain dead and had no movement or reaction until that moment. It was such a power of Christ at that moment. RIP Glenn love you always till we meet again
Wake up baby "Christians" I'm a believer and this is a load of nonsense trying to appeal to your emotions! An artist makes beautiful things, an architect makes beautiful things, scientists makes beautiful things! Jesus gives new life eternal life! This song is as empty as the individuals in this hipster rock band, where is JESUS even mentioned where is the Gospel presented that affirms ones Faith and Eternal destiny in heaven? My friend look at the lyrics to "when we all get to heaven" or "sweet by & by" or "I'm bound for that city", if it does not bring comfort of being reunited with our believing loved ones.
@@AnyaOshua gosh go trumpet your misguided thoughts elsewhere. You chose to comment this on someone’s mentioning a beautiful moment with a now deceased brother. I’ve met Christians like you, and they aren’t Christians at all.
At the darkest moment in our marriage, this song gave us hope and light. We listened to it together daily just to focus on what could come out of the dust through His hands. Thank you for this beautiful song.
I'm not a christian and I resonate deeply with this beautiful song. They don't have to be christians to make deeply moving music that inspires and reaches deep within. To all the contemporary christian haters in this chat.. c'mon guys, embrace the fact that you don't really know what happens when you die, and be okay with it. Recognize beauty, recognize real people, and find the good things to say, not the bad.
God loves you so much and sent His son Jesus to die for everyone’s mistake so that we may be forgiven and go to Heaven! Just thought I’d share that with you, God is always there if you ever want to give Him a chance! ❤️
But Christians do know where they're going. That that's part of the beautiful thing. All a - round Hope is springing up from this old ground Out of chaos life is being found in You Without Jesus there is no hope.

Don’t worry they’re not lost at all, just finding their way, taking a step back, stripping down their faith and get rid of the junk and lies... you know a true relationship goes through hardships, doubts and struggles. And that’s probably the case in their relationship with God.

Shauna Mead Eana B How am I not surprised people in the crowd of RELEVANT subscribers, usually hiding behind the facade of "progressive Christianity", lose all pretense of being God believers and celebrate when a couple become atheists. RELEVANT even published an article this past month promoting Gungor's denial of Jesus. Phony Christians are being exposed for what they truly are. Atheistic egoists.
I am so confused on why people are saying this a fake christian song.... Yes they may believe in something else today, but when this song was made, they truly believed in God. Therefore the lyrics in this song is genuine. Its not a fake worship song.
That's because you haven't read the new testament or the book of kings. If they deconvert they always fake, even if they thought they were real. That's what the Bible teaches, which is not how humans think.
I agree. O Holy Night was written by an atheist, yet I have sang that song in worship many times and felt the presence of God. What matters is the truth in the song and the intent of the person singing it.
Thank you! This is the first song I put on just seconds after finding that my brother was done his struggle with depression. He was in heaven and finally at rest with Jesus
In listening to - and reading - the lyrics, I've wondered about that as well. He thanks God for the beautiful girl with whom the Lord has blessed him, and even makes a [somewhat vague] reference to the Book of Job, and the famous "... the Lord giveth, and the Lord taketh away..." (yeah, I know - old King James version!) All that aside, this is an amazing and heart-wrenching song. Whatever the writer/performer's personal beliefs (I myself am a Christian) I like to think it was intended to be both: a prayer to God AND a plea to his girl to never leave him. Just my take...
So many say things about those who fall away, and frankly I used to too. But I've found as my faith matures, I have more questions for God than can be answered. While I still hold on my grip gets weak but I know he is holding me up. I will not talk bad about these two, instead I will pray that they come running back to the Father. Once we are in Him it is harder to be in the world, for its because we have tasted and seen of his goodness. Please know I am praying for you dear brother and sister. As well as a few others who have publicly fallen away or professed to no longer believing. I challenge our other brothers and sisters in Christ to do the same. For we all are but a vapor and none of us know our own wickedness or fragile hearts. It's best we never act as though "it won't be me"
All these years later.... still the most beautiful song I've ever heard.. Thank you Jesus... Thank you for turning pain into something beautiful. Turning my pain into beauty, for the healing of others, thru encou gers with you
Marty im praying that you'll come back to your faith, that you'll remember that first encounter, that love that this world can never replicate. I understand you have so many questions and contradictions about God, but at the end of the day God is infinite and our ability to comprehend him is like trying to understand the ocean when we are only a droplet of water. Marty God is waiting with a loving embrace and always has been
Seasons of doubt are normal in growing up. Some are shorter some longer but god is in control and super faithful and full of understanding. Progress is not always what it looks like on the outside. Faith hope LOVE and peace out😘💚🦁
Favorite version of the song. Had the opportunity to play this song with my worship band last Saturday. We were all definitely feeling those God-bumps. Haha, it was amazing. God Bless!
Do we believed Gungor came up with this song out of his own power? This video will always be blessing no matter what Gungor believes simply because the song came from God's Holy Spirit. Gungor was just the vessel.
Last year my grandmother died. On her deathbed we sang this together.this is has been a song that has made a real difference in my faith .that someone could be in so much pain but still worship
All this pain I wonder if I'll ever find my way I wonder if my life could really change at all All this earth Could all that is lost ever be found Could a garden come up from this ground at all You make beautiful things You make beautiful things out of the dust You make beautiful things You make beautiful things out of us All around Hope is springing up from this old ground Out of chaos life is being found in You You make me new, You are making me new
I pray by now you have found your way. i would like to invite you to visit my church in Springfield, MO. called Dayspring. Your life will change. I pray that everything that binds you break off of your life.
This has been my pick-up song for a while now. I really feel the Spirit of God blessing me from the worship I give, contemplating God's beautiful creation, while listening to this. Thanks Dad, for this band.
All I can affirm is that before I had faith in Jesus Christ my life was in shambles. 3 years after I asked Christ into my life I am a completely new man with a life I could never have made on my own. I have much compassion for people like I was, who are lost, those who believe they know all the answers, but really know nothing at all. There is only one answer and usually its something right in front of you ;) I hope all have a happy 2013. Oh and this song is awesome!
It's simply incredible how the Lord can speak to individuals and do so with such specificity. I heard this song for the first time a couple years ago. But in this season, it's all I want to listen to. It has fallen completely from my head until just a couple weeks ago. Now as I listen I feel the groaning in my Spirit to be made beautiful and new. God can do something. He is still able! He is always willing!
God is the one who brings these beautiful things. I pray please don't give up on him, he hasn't given up for you. He went up on that cross for us. Glory to God! He makes us new. For that sacrifice we are given a hope for our future. We love you and brothers and sisters we love you and will keep you in our prayers
The first time I ever heard this song was when our Aidan died. It was so painful, the loss of him. I imagine him in Heaven, running with his dog Willie, and fishing with my Dad.
i was going thru a hard time in my life & started to drink, smoke weed, cut...& when i gave my life to jesus i felt so ashamed. i was caked in filthy rags, not righteousness. but God began to work in me...i gave up my alcohol & weed addictions & God also glorifies himself thru my asl. Also, leading me thru the pain of my bestfriend's suicide, I have helped over 20 people overcome those dark thoughts & helped even more reach the savior. Jesus really does make beautiful things out of the dust!
reminds me of the scripture of " Beauty for Ashes " Isaiah 61: …2to proclaim the year of the LORD’s favor and the day of our God’s vengeance, to comfort all who mourn, 3to provide for those who grieve in Zion- to give them a crown of beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, and a garment of praise in place of a spirit of despair. So they will be called oaks of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that He may be glorified. 4They will rebuild the ancient ruins; they will restore the places long devastated; they will renew the ruined cities, the desolations of many generations.…beautiful music so encouraged to hear something new with acoustic and strings. Love this bless you all and God bless your music ministry !
This is one of my all time favorite songs!! So much depth- it touches my soul on a deep level. Thank you Gungor! You have definitely been blessed by God to spread his message. You are amazing!!
I love the way they have embraced their spiritual journey. I believe God is still working in their lives in a very beautiful way. Their spirituality is inspiring and they have beautiful souls that are touching the lives of so many people on the faith spectrum.
I heard this song a couple years ago after a really traumatic experience. I played it a lot during that time. It still makes me tear up. It is such a beautiful song.
Cant get enough of this song!!! Sang it during praise and worship and the church reach yet another yoke breaking experience. Crying out and just thanking God for him being God!!
Hey Bob, God just cured my Dad of leukemia we all thought for sure we were gonna loose him. but the doctors were so amazed they kept asking him what he did because it was impossible to have had that great of a recovery. i'm not telling you this to prove anything to you but just to give you hope. I don't know whats going on in your life but you seem like you have been very hurt in the past, I hope life goes well for you :) p.s love this song
In this moment Jesus talked with me through this song, sometimes I miss those times when I was younger, everything was so easier, but somehow I have hope. I remember what Jesus said on the last verse in Mathew's gospel, he'll be with us till kingdom comes... Thanks God!
It’s Zell you don’t need to be religious to have a relationship with Jesus. We as people always twist what being a Christian is you can have a relationship with Jesus and not be religious religion and god are totally separate
Revelation 21:5New International Version (NIV) 5 He who was seated on the throne said, “I am making everything new!” Then he said, “Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true.” I'm trusting verses like these that promise that everything will be made new! Yes there are some broken, lost or lame things in this world. But there are beautiful things too!!
A lot of people critisize Gungor for believing creation through the big bang theory, and while that is controversial, we shouldn't despise them so terribly. They are talented musicians working for the Lord. We all share the same gospel. As a belief, we need to stop calling out our differences and come together based on our similarities. No one is going to hell for interpreting Genesis in a different way. As long as we all put our full faith in Jesus, I think it's safe to say that we'll be saved. The whole perception of bashing people with different beliefs is what has torn the World apart. We need to preach love over hate. Then, and only then will we get anywhere.
Welp...they're atheists now. So much for that "same gospel." Be very cautious when someone disregards one Word from God. Genesis isn't true? How about Exodus? Romans? Matthew, Mark, Luke and John?
After hearing their reasons on why they left, we as Christians have to be rather blunt on God's Sovereignty. We always want to be super encouraging and optimistic when talking to someone that is going through a rough time. However, we kinda miss the point when we do that. I am not saying that it is bad to build your brother up when they are crashing down, but we have to be content that when our world falls apart, it brings glory to God. This is what Jesus said about Lazarus death to Martha. By no means is our downfall part of God's delight, but if we believe in all loving sovereign God, we have to place our trust and reliance on Him. Meaning, that when God lets things happen he takes the entirety of his creation into consideration. This is wisdom is best observed in the book of Job. That is why we should be slow to say things like "you are going through a hard time, it must be because you are in sin." The reason, is because we are all sinners, and my our free choices, we deserve the internal separation from God. That is why we need our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, and the undeserving grace we get from him. Then we start seeing that all blessing we receive is truly from the undeserving love of our God, and all the bad things that happen to us (within our walk with God) is when truly we see God turning "Beautiful things out of dust." For it is out of His work and not ours, for his will and not ours.
Pray for them, this could very well come full circle, the exact thing they are singing about - they may come back with a heart of repentance! Just pray, it took me seeing a video she did with Buzz Feed (I think) to realize I missed this song! 🙏
They recently announced that they've come back to their faith. And Lisa has stated that Buzzfeed left a lot out of the interview (as buzfeed normally does).
The central element of Christianity is that if you do what Jesus/god tells you, then you'll get a magical reward of eternal life. I don't know how you could be a christian and not know that.
Yes, I just watched a few youtubes about what happened.... I remember listening to this song and others and how good the words are..... sad to hear what happened. Jesus is all we need.... praying they find Jesus, He is all we need.
How can you guys give up on God! My dad died of pancreatic cancer. In his last final moments in life when I would pray for him he would raise his hands to heaven. Gods presence was with us even till the end. I would like to meet you guys if I can to talk with you guys about my dads faith. If you guys can give me a chance to just talk with you for one moment that would be great. 💜
I was shocked to hear they are atheists now. Im atheist too and used to listen. To their music when I was Christian. I thank the universe they are on their own journey now, just like I'm . And I'm peaceful and happy
Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen... praying that Lisa and Michael understand this simple truth... it’s blessed to believe in the One who gives us free will to do so
It’s amazing to know these two lost their belief in God after writing a song like this. I lost mine a long time ago but every time I heard this song it made me question if I should believe in God again- well..
HewOnUA-cam in my opinion there‘s no clear line between believing and not believing. Sometimes taking a step back, looking from a distant helps to set everything in perspective. I believe there’s a good God - but I cannot prove it. But it then again nothing would make sense if He‘s just an illusion. And I don’t think he is. Faith means (for me) doubting and struggling and testing and trusting. Labels don’t matter - you don’t have to be a Christian or an Atheist. I want to be a Child on the look out for someone greater and better than the world has ever known.
I definitely get your perspective. I was raised loosely Christian as a kid but was always fascinated by God and Jesus. I got taken on this long journey of going through my Mums Catholic side and a bit of universalism to my Dads American Baptist roots (oh I’m Aussie lol btw) to floating through and having an odd sense of Christianity as a teen. I then became involved in an Anglican Church and met some kind true soles that put me on yet another track to understanding God. I fell away from the church because my introversion pushed me there and a couple of years of questioning led to a lot of late night research on all religions , spiritualities and new age thoughts. It was crazy because no matter what I read Jesus kept cropping up, wherever I looked - people discussing him as a son of God, a prophet, an enlightened one, a teacher or light worker. I opened myself to many things, but I always got a call back from God and Jesus. Then the messages started happening weekly, where God and Jesus would be sending me such direct messages I couldn’t explain Him away anymore. The one that striked me the most was I was sitting at my kitchen table and I felt an odd feeling that I needed to stay there. I then heard a familiar yet different male voice telling me I need to stay there.. and as crazy as this sounds I was arguing with Him, I wanted to get up and go out... the voice stopped and I felt the sudden urge to turn my head left. My grandma was coming up from the garden and she took a misstep. She grabbed the handle bar but flipped around and hit the ground hard. I helped her up and called for a family member to get her to the dr. My Nanna believed in God, but never spoke to me about him much.. then she casually said to me “Oh thank God, you were there or I would’ve been lying on the cement outside on the ground all day” (it was a hot Aussie spring/summer) and that blew me away, cos I learnt that God is with everyone of His children through the good and the bad, even tho my grandma was old to me, she was a loved child to God he didn’t want to see hurt. I thought about this again recently, and God has been sending me a lot of messages. If you pray and open yourself to see, you’ll be amazed. I always say I’m as stubborn as they come God, so you have to send me really obvious messages. In one way my life is the same, but on the other God is what keeps me up and going thru my depression. Sorry for the rant thanks for coming to my ted talk 😂😂
Not too surprising with these "worship" lyrics that are focused not on God, but on how "beautiful" we humans are. Even though I like the music it always struck me as oddly self-centered and vapid. Now we know why, they were not committed to believing what God thinks if it didn't make them feel good. If God is just there to make you feel good, then you are your god, and God is your jester.
This song is so beautiful. It helps to remind me even though I am not worthy, my God still loves me no matter what. His unconditional love for us is so genuine and this song is such a good reminder that we are each created just the way we were supposed to be, beautiful and perfectly flawed. Let his love live through you in everything you do. Whatever you're doing, do it out of love. 3
this is unfortunately the sort of divisive culture found in every church. People like to point fingers. People like to be accusatory when instead they should be encouraging. I've found that it is best to not get too involved with the church, and focus on God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit on my own.
Being a Christian is not about other Christians. There are countless terrible Christians to focus on and countless good ones to focus on as well... But there's only one Jesus Christ... Focus on Him. God bless
I feel ya. Your journey is important. Continue on it. Also just a side note Jesus probably would over turn the tables in most churches today, don’t let Christian discolor your view of Christ-for whatever that’s worth to ya
"Eu me pergunto se eu vou mesmo encontrar meu caminho. Eu me pergunto se minha vida poderia realmente mudar por completo". exatamente isso que me pergunto, ainda.
I feel bad for this guy. He’s got nice instruments not being used to full potential, and he’s chosen to allow the current culture shape and form his convictions
Such a beautiful song! Reminds me of how amazing God's love is and that I have something so incredible to hope in/be loved by. And THAT is the real reason why we Christians choose to believe in Him, not because it makes sense on a piece of paper but because we taste this amazing love that touches the very core of beings, that reaches down to our bones. Sure, not everyone might agree with it/like it but at the end of the day, we have Him, and He has us, and no one can take that away.
so this song was played at my brothers funeral. Both my brother and I had are battles with drugs and alcohol he died cause of this horrible disease. It brought me to me knees when my pastor and I shared the good news of the gospel with and he shed a tear. My brother was clinically brain dead and had no movement or reaction until that moment.

I aspire to do the same.
That. Is. Awesome. Definitely. So cool (:

Don’t worry they’re not lost at all, just finding their way, taking a step back, stripping down their faith and get rid of the junk and lies... you know a true relationship goes through hardships, doubts and struggles. And that’s probably the case in their relationship with God.

(yeah, I know - old King James version!) All that aside, this is an amazing and heart-wrenching song. Whatever the writer/performer's personal beliefs (I myself am a Christian) I like to think it was intended to be both: a prayer to God AND a plea to his girl to never leave him. Just my take...
whenever i hear christian music like this i shed a tear, thats what separates a bad christian song from a good one with creativity and meaning to it.
So many say things about those who fall away, and frankly I used to too. But I've found as my faith matures, I have more questions for God than can be answered. While I still hold on my grip gets weak but I know he is holding me up. I will not talk bad about these two, instead I will pray that they come running back to the Father. Once we are in Him it is harder to be in the world, for its because we have tasted and seen of his goodness. Please know I am praying for you dear brother and sister. As well as a few others who have publicly fallen away or professed to no longer believing. I challenge our other brothers and sisters in Christ to do the same. For we all are but a vapor and none of us know our own wickedness or fragile hearts. It's best we never act as though "it won't be me"
maybe they fell up - we don't know what we don't know
If they just really believe in the message of this song and cling to Him no matter what. He make all things beautiful in His time.
All these years later.... still the most beautiful song I've ever heard.. Thank you Jesus... Thank you for turning pain into something beautiful. Turning my pain into beauty, for the healing of others, thru encou gers with you
Marty im praying that you'll come back to your faith, that you'll remember that first encounter, that love that this world can never replicate. I understand you have so many questions and contradictions about God, but at the end of the day God is infinite and our ability to comprehend him is like trying to understand the ocean when we are only a droplet of water. Marty God is waiting with a loving embrace and always has been
I agree in Jesus' name
Seasons of doubt are normal in growing up. Some are shorter some longer but god is in control and super faithful and full of understanding. Progress is not always what it looks like on the outside.
Faith hope LOVE and peace out😘💚🦁
From a man who has touched others with his depth, open your mind to a greater depth, and that it may exist, and that he may be bathed in it.
Favorite version of the song. Had the opportunity to play this song with my worship band last Saturday. We were all definitely feeling those God-bumps. Haha, it was amazing. God Bless!
Do we believed Gungor came up with this song out of his own power? This video will always be blessing no matter what Gungor believes simply because the song came from God's Holy Spirit. Gungor was just the vessel.
Please don’t ever slack up your walk with God. Get closer to Him everyday. I pray for the spiritual restoration of these two beautiful people.
Yes, that's so important, a relationship. God bless. Praying for them too.
What did they do.
Beautiful song! Thank you for elevating the art of Christian music.
They degraded the genre of Christian music.
@@AnyaOshua how
Last year my grandmother died. On her deathbed we sang this together.this is has been a song that has made a real difference in my faith .that someone could be in so much pain but still worship
I cried with this song!! God! If i feel it how's going to be when i'll be with you Jesus ❤️🙏🏻 :'3
All this pain
I wonder if I'll ever find my way
I wonder if my life could really change at all
All this earth
Could all that is lost ever be found
Could a garden come up from this ground at all
You make beautiful things
You make beautiful things out of the dust
You make beautiful things
You make beautiful things out of us
All around
Hope is springing up from this old ground
Out of chaos life is being found in You
You make me new, You are making me new
I pray by now you have found your way. i would like to invite you to visit my church in Springfield, MO. called Dayspring. Your life will change. I pray that everything that binds you break off of your life.
And now they are atheists, after writing such lyrics!? 🤔
This has been my pick-up song for a while now. I really feel the Spirit of God blessing me from the worship I give, contemplating God's beautiful creation, while listening to this. Thanks Dad, for this band.
All I can affirm is that before I had faith in Jesus Christ my life was in shambles. 3 years after I asked Christ into my life I am a completely new man with a life I could never have made on my own. I have much compassion for people like I was, who are lost, those who believe they know all the answers, but really know nothing at all. There is only one answer and usually its something right in front of you ;) I hope all have a happy 2013. Oh and this song is awesome!
No matter what it looks like, you make all things new. Thank you Jesus.
It's simply incredible how the Lord can speak to individuals and do so with such specificity. I heard this song for the first time a couple years ago. But in this season, it's all I want to listen to. It has fallen completely from my head until just a couple weeks ago. Now as I listen I feel the groaning in my Spirit to be made beautiful and new. God can do something. He is still able! He is always willing!
This song is simple, beautiful, but has so much depth.
Please tell me where is the depth to this hipster rock song?
Be God worshiped! He not only makes beautiful thing out of us, but also inspires us to make beautiful things!
I'm not religious, but I love a lot of Christian music
this beautiful song is stuck in my head, i'll listen to it over and over til i drift to dreamland
God is the one who brings these beautiful things. I pray please don't give up on him, he hasn't given up for you. He went up on that cross for us. Glory to God! He makes us new. For that sacrifice we are given a hope for our future. We love you and brothers and sisters we love you and will keep you in our prayers
The first time I ever heard this song was when our Aidan died. It was so painful, the loss of him. I imagine him in Heaven, running with his dog Willie, and fishing with my Dad.
I pray that you both come back to faith in the good Lord 🙏
If they don't, then you should respect their decision
i was going thru a hard time in my life & started to drink, smoke weed, cut...& when i gave my life to jesus i felt so ashamed. i was caked in filthy rags, not righteousness. but God began to work in me...i gave up my alcohol & weed addictions & God also glorifies himself thru my asl. Also, leading me thru the pain of my bestfriend's suicide, I have helped over 20 people overcome those dark thoughts & helped even more reach the savior. Jesus really does make beautiful things out of the dust!
reminds me of the scripture of " Beauty for Ashes " Isaiah 61: …2to proclaim the year of the LORD’s favor and the day of our God’s vengeance, to comfort all who mourn, 3to provide for those who grieve in Zion- to give them a crown of beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, and a garment of praise in place of a spirit of despair. So they will be called oaks of righteousness, the planting of the LORD, that He may be glorified. 4They will rebuild the ancient ruins; they will restore the places long devastated; they will renew the ruined cities, the desolations of many generations.…beautiful music so encouraged to hear something new with acoustic and strings. Love this bless you all and God bless your music ministry !
This is one of my all time favorite songs!! So much depth- it touches my soul on a deep level. Thank you Gungor! You have definitely been blessed by God to spread his message. You are amazing!!
wonderful, joyous, creative, beautiful song.
I love the way they have embraced their spiritual journey. I believe God is still working in their lives in a very beautiful way. Their spirituality is inspiring and they have beautiful souls that are touching the lives of so many people on the faith spectrum.
I heard this song a couple years ago after a really traumatic experience. I played it a lot during that time. It still makes me tear up. It is such a beautiful song.
Love this sweet declaration of how much God loves us and how beautiful we are to Him!
This song really spoken to me this morning. I love it!
My words cannot express what this song means to me.
That cello is so beautiful!
true that
Perhaps the best song in these times. Listening on loop...
Cant get enough of this song!!! Sang it during praise and worship and the church reach yet another yoke breaking experience. Crying out and just thanking God for him being God!!
hits me right in the feels
Hey Bob, God just cured my Dad of leukemia we all thought for sure we were gonna loose him. but the doctors were so amazed they kept asking him what he did because it was impossible to have had that great of a recovery. i'm not telling you this to prove anything to you but just to give you hope. I don't know whats going on in your life but you seem like you have been very hurt in the past, I hope life goes well for you :) p.s love this song
Great song and live performance! :)
In this moment Jesus talked with me through this song, sometimes I miss those times when I was younger, everything was so easier, but somehow I have hope. I remember what Jesus said on the last verse in Mathew's gospel, he'll be with us till kingdom comes... Thanks God!
Was done at church today and had to find it on here to share. Love it.
Idc if Matt is a little confused. Let's pray for him and enjoy this beautiful song. God can make him beautiful again ❤
So touching and powerful. Great job
God deserves the best of our lives, He deserves everything, He owns everything
So touching and beautiful this song is, thank you Heavenly Father!
We sang this in church yesterday. I wasn't really all into the whole "Christian" thing until I heard this song. I love this song. Truly powerful.
Such a beautiful song! thanks
I'm not even religious but I love this song so much it's so sparkly and beautiful 😍😍😍😍
I'm not religious either, I just love Jesus. God loves you soooooooo much. It is a beautiful, song isn't it?
It’s Zell you don’t need to be religious to have a relationship with Jesus. We as people always twist what being a Christian is you can have a relationship with Jesus and not be religious religion and god are totally separate
It’s religion that keeps these guys away from the reality of God :(
I hate evil not you
Revelation 21:5New International Version (NIV)
5 He who was seated on the throne said, “I am making everything new!” Then he said, “Write this down, for these words are trustworthy and true.”
I'm trusting verses like these that promise that everything will be made new! Yes there are some broken, lost or lame things in this world. But there are beautiful things too!!
I sang this song in church a few time in Arizona
I love that song! I could listen to it a million and one times in one day.
Essa música maravilhosa apareceu para mim hoje no spotify depois de anos que não a escutava. 😭❤ Gratidão e abraço brasileiro em vocês, Gungor. 🇧🇷
A lot of people critisize Gungor for believing creation through the big bang theory, and while that is controversial, we shouldn't despise them so terribly. They are talented musicians working for the Lord. We all share the same gospel. As a belief, we need to stop calling out our differences and come together based on our similarities. No one is going to hell for interpreting Genesis in a different way. As long as we all put our full faith in Jesus, I think it's safe to say that we'll be saved. The whole perception of bashing people with different beliefs is what has torn the World apart. We need to preach love over hate. Then, and only then will we get anywhere.
DaPurplePanda amen to that!
Welp...they're atheists now. So much for that "same gospel." Be very cautious when someone disregards one Word from God. Genesis isn't true? How about Exodus? Romans? Matthew, Mark, Luke and John?
Wow stunning & so true....the true gospel!!
So thankful for this song. Thank you so much for making it.
I long to see my maker face to face as I am. Jesus Christ of Nazareth I love you!
Need to see them live!
After hearing their reasons on why they left, we as Christians have to be rather blunt on God's Sovereignty. We always want to be super encouraging and optimistic when talking to someone that is going through a rough time. However, we kinda miss the point when we do that. I am not saying that it is bad to build your brother up when they are crashing down, but we have to be content that when our world falls apart, it brings glory to God. This is what Jesus said about Lazarus death to Martha. By no means is our downfall part of God's delight, but if we believe in all loving sovereign God, we have to place our trust and reliance on Him. Meaning, that when God lets things happen he takes the entirety of his creation into consideration. This is wisdom is best observed in the book of Job. That is why we should be slow to say things like "you are going through a hard time, it must be because you are in sin." The reason, is because we are all sinners, and my our free choices, we deserve the internal separation from God. That is why we need our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, and the undeserving grace we get from him. Then we start seeing that all blessing we receive is truly from the undeserving love of our God, and all the bad things that happen to us (within our walk with God) is when truly we see God turning "Beautiful things out of dust." For it is out of His work and not ours, for his will and not ours.
Beautiful Song !
I loved these guys as a Christian, I still love them as an atheist.
Sang this song during youth today it touched me. Everyone is beautiful inside and outside. Everyone is the same in Gods eyes!
I love this song it reminds me a lot that even when i do not feel like it i am beautiful to God
God looks at the heart not outer appearances.
Pray for them, this could very well come full circle, the exact thing they are singing about - they may come back with a heart of repentance! Just pray, it took me seeing a video she did with Buzz Feed (I think) to realize I missed this song! 🙏
They recently announced that they've come back to their faith. And Lisa has stated that Buzzfeed left a lot out of the interview (as buzfeed normally does).

Where are you getting that? Source?
Glory be to God in the highest!
Amen! Beautifully said! I totally agree, ONLY God has ALL we need!
The central element of Christianity is that if you do what Jesus/god tells you, then you'll get a magical reward of eternal life.
I don't know how you could be a christian and not know that.
Very sad, this whole situation.... Praying for them, that Jesus may open their eyes. In Jesus name.
Yes, I just watched a few youtubes about what happened.... I remember listening to this song and others and how good the words are..... sad to hear what happened. Jesus is all we need.... praying they find Jesus, He is all we need.
Here's hoping you all see the light and the real truth!
@@L35L13 Amen. The whole truth, Jesus, Torah, Word, God.
What are you sad about? He's exploring his faith. Just because it doesn't line up with yours, doesn't mean it's wrong.
@@verweiler1 Truth is not relative. We can't believe two contrary things and both be right.
How can you guys give up on God! My dad died of pancreatic cancer. In his last final moments in life when I would pray for him he would raise his hands to heaven. Gods presence was with us even till the end. I would like to meet you guys if I can to talk with you guys about my dads faith. If you guys can give me a chance to just talk with you for one moment that would be great. 💜
I was shocked to hear they are atheists now.
Im atheist too and used to listen. To their music when I was Christian.
I thank the universe they are on their own journey now, just like I'm .
And I'm peaceful and happy
More and more people are leaving 'the church' and going back to God. 2000 years and Jesus still saves!
Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen... praying that Lisa and Michael understand this simple truth... it’s blessed to believe in the One who gives us free will to do so
It’s amazing to know these two lost their belief in God after writing a song like this. I lost mine a long time ago but every time I heard this song it made me question if I should believe in God again- well..
HewOnUA-cam in my opinion there‘s no clear line between believing and not believing. Sometimes taking a step back, looking from a distant helps to set everything in perspective. I believe there’s a good God - but I cannot prove it. But it then again nothing would make sense if He‘s just an illusion. And I don’t think he is. Faith means (for me) doubting and struggling and testing and trusting. Labels don’t matter - you don’t have to be a Christian or an Atheist. I want to be a Child on the look out for someone greater and better than the world has ever known.
I would say take your doubts to God! And see if you don’t walk away doubting those doubts or just still not believing God exist. Not much to lose 🤷♂️
I definitely get your perspective. I was raised loosely Christian as a kid but was always fascinated by God and Jesus. I got taken on this long journey of going through my Mums Catholic side and a bit of universalism to my Dads American Baptist roots (oh I’m Aussie lol btw) to floating through and having an odd sense of Christianity as a teen. I then became involved in an Anglican Church and met some kind true soles that put me on yet another track to understanding God. I fell away from the church because my introversion pushed me there and a couple of years of questioning led to a lot of late night research on all religions , spiritualities and new age thoughts. It was crazy because no matter what I read Jesus kept cropping up, wherever I looked - people discussing him as a son of God, a prophet, an enlightened one, a teacher or light worker. I opened myself to many things, but I always got a call back from God and Jesus. Then the messages started happening weekly, where God and Jesus would be sending me such direct messages I couldn’t explain Him away anymore.
The one that striked me the most was I was sitting at my kitchen table and I felt an odd feeling that I needed to stay there. I then heard a familiar yet different male voice telling me I need to stay there.. and as crazy as this sounds I was arguing with Him, I wanted to get up and go out... the voice stopped and I felt the sudden urge to turn my head left. My grandma was coming up from the garden and she took a misstep. She grabbed the handle bar but flipped around and hit the ground hard. I helped her up and called for a family member to get her to the dr. My Nanna believed in God, but never spoke to me about him much.. then she casually said to me “Oh thank God, you were there or I would’ve been lying on the cement outside on the ground all day” (it was a hot Aussie spring/summer) and that blew me away, cos I learnt that God is with everyone of His children through the good and the bad, even tho my grandma was old to me, she was a loved child to God he didn’t want to see hurt.
I thought about this again recently, and God has been sending me a lot of messages. If you pray and open yourself to see, you’ll be amazed. I always say I’m as stubborn as they come God, so you have to send me really obvious messages. In one way my life is the same, but on the other God is what keeps me up and going thru my depression. Sorry for the rant thanks for coming to my ted talk 😂😂
Not too surprising with these "worship" lyrics that are focused not on God, but on how "beautiful" we humans are. Even though I like the music it always struck me as oddly self-centered and vapid. Now we know why, they were not committed to believing what God thinks if it didn't make them feel good. If God is just there to make you feel good, then you are your god, and God is your jester.
HewOnUA-cam be curious, test God. Doubt is the perfect chance for God to show up, see what happens ! (:
There is a Nepal guy on logoshope singing this so beautifully... Does anyone know who he is?? He makes me need to listen to this every week :)
黃心蕙 oh my God, are you from nepal?? i really love this country 😭❤
Beautiiful song!!!
Great job. Love the song! HE does make BEAUTIFUL THINGS out of US!
This song is so beautiful. It helps to remind me even though I am not worthy, my God still loves me no matter what. His unconditional love for us is so genuine and this song is such a good reminder that we are each created just the way we were supposed to be, beautiful and perfectly flawed.
Let his love live through you in everything you do. Whatever you're doing, do it out of love. 3
this was beautiful
You make beautiful songs out of guitars.
very very goog song ! Glory to God
Gungor is great!
This is such a beautiful song! Glory be to Jesus now and forever! ❤️
Gungor- you make wonderful song...beautiful song:)
If only they would have believed their own message… 😢 Praying they come back to God one day. 🙏🏼
If they don't then you should respect their decision

@@kazuarceo what. Do you really not agree that people can have their own opinions
That's so sad. I'm just discovering them
What happened?
Going through these comments just solidify my choice of being agnostic. You spew toxicity and further the divide.
This is beautiful music.
this is unfortunately the sort of divisive culture found in every church. People like to point fingers. People like to be accusatory when instead they should be encouraging. I've found that it is best to not get too involved with the church, and focus on God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit on my own.
Being a Christian is not about other Christians. There are countless terrible Christians to focus on and countless good ones to focus on as well... But there's only one Jesus Christ... Focus on Him. God bless
I feel ya. Your journey is important. Continue on it. Also just a side note Jesus probably would over turn the tables in most churches today, don’t let Christian discolor your view of Christ-for whatever that’s worth to ya
Amazing! 💚☝
ummm, have you commented in other gungor videos?? your name seems familiar, that's why
Saw these guys last night. Great musicians!
This is just great, it fills me with warmth. God is great
"Eu me pergunto se eu vou mesmo encontrar meu caminho.
Eu me pergunto se minha vida poderia realmente mudar por completo".
exatamente isso que me pergunto, ainda.
Watching this guy I always realize that I know nothing about guitar playing =]
I feel bad for this guy. He’s got nice instruments not being used to full potential, and he’s chosen to allow the current culture shape and form his convictions
I feel so peaceful whenever I listen to this song.
Such a beautiful song! Reminds me of how amazing God's love is and that I have something so incredible to hope in/be loved by.
And THAT is the real reason why we Christians choose to believe in Him, not because it makes sense on a piece of paper but because we taste this amazing love that touches the very core of beings, that reaches down to our bones. Sure, not everyone might agree with it/like it but at the end of the day, we have Him, and He has us, and no one can take that away.
