Always, keep your head to the sky. HE gave us a map of life... The BIBLE! When confused... Read, Believe, Stay Focused, have Faith... and... KEEP YOUR HEAD TO THE SKY!😊
You aren't the only one this has happened to but you can turn it all around if you remember the source which is our Father GOD in Heaven and His Son, Jesus Christ in the name of Jesus. This happened to me and I believe it will be for their glory and not mine. It's also going to make a lot of people wish they had treated me better and valued my friendship when they had the chance. Listen to Shepard's Chapel, Andrew Wommack, Charles Stanley, and Denzel Washington who provide profound knowledge as well as read the King James Bible to learn what GOD wants from us and His love for us. You will understand why this happened bc He doesn't want you to miss out on being with Him in the end as you continue to listen to E,W, & F; the elements of the Universe as well as good teaching to strengthen your faith and confidence in yourself and GOD.
My son was just murdered...27yrs old..my heart is beyond broken...this was one of his favorite songs..he played it for me all the time and me and him would sing it together...i play it every single day!..I MISS MY BABY!
Your Baby will keep you strong through this song I can relate to what you are feeling I lost my Baby too and just today I cried thinking of him so stay strong
@@carolynfletcher254 Amen! Yes, this song will bring back memories and tears. I posted this about the song two months ago. When this song came out in 1973, I was a senior in High School and I asked one of my classmates name Kenneth Austin (Big time) who is singing that song and he told me Earth, Wind & Fire. Kenneth was killed in 1977, and this song brings back memories and tears.
Master told me one day I'd find peace in every way, but in search for the clue wrong things I was bound to do Keep my head to the sky for the clouds to tell me why As I grew with strength Master kept me as I repent Keep your head to the sky Keep your head to the sky Gave me the will to be free purpose to live is reality Found myself never alone changes come to make me strong Step right up, be a man You need faith to understand so we're saying for you to hear Keep your head in faith's atmosphere Keep your head to the sky Keep your head to the sky
emichelle1991 Thank you for the lyrics. I was just saying to myself I was gonna go old school and right it down for my daughter in college and my 13 yo for inspiration!
Keep your head to the sky America. Stand on faith and God will continue to bless. Whoever reads this please continue to pray. I miss you Grandpa Brent, Bear, Daddy, Gail, Jimmy R.I.P
The lyrics made me visualize God. I imagined a chain around my neck but then I remembered how he made us free and the chain around my neck is gone. We have nothing forcing us to come to God until we come to him. He is patiently waiting for you.
Wow. We carried my mother out to this song. Though there was definitely alt of tears and grief , she was beautiful as ever and def wanted us to live while we could and sing our hearts out. I miss my mother everyday and I pray for the strength during this hard time. This just reminds me to keep my head up and live while I'm living. Rest Well My love ❤❤❤❤
@@Thollis1987 Her mother in not in heaven. She's asleep in the grave, waiting for the resurrection. John 5:28-29 Marvel not at this: for the hour is coming, in the which all that are in the graves shall hear his voice, And shall come forth; they that have done good, unto the resurrection of life; and they that have done evil, unto the resurrection of damnation.
You came into my life in Denver during a difficult time. You had no idea my mother had just put me out into the mean streets with nowhere to go, no funds, no hope. I was frightened and alone. When we went to church, you told me to keep my head to the sky. You gave me hope that kept me going. You encouraged me. That meant so much to me. Thank you, Phillip.😊
See them i concert 3rd row at the Cincinnati jazz festival in 2019 simply mind blowing!!! Frankly beverly call philip Bailey the VOICE Geesh!!! EWF simply untouchable period 💯
Me too. When I first heard this song when it first came out…. I didn’t listened to it as I have now….Now I listen to it through the eyes of Jesus. The Law came through Moses, but GRACE AND TRUTH CAME THROUGH JESUS CHRIST!🙏🫶🏾👏🏾🙌🏾
Remembering the blessing that was bestowed upon me because of God's loving mercy. Only by His grace did I come this far and I'll never forget where He brought me out of.....30 years in the desert. Thank you Jesus for opening the Heavens with your forgiveness.
Battling with depression but this song really keeps my spirit high. I pray for every soul dealing with depression may God bless you whoever you are🙏🏾🙏🏾
Lost my HERO, my FATHER decades ago, played this song repeatedly the night he passed it gave me strength then and continues to do so. KEEP YOUR HEAD TO THE SKY!!
Don't know how old ur but today I'm 58 army vet and u just keep knowing that pain doesn't last always I'm battling right now that is why I'm listening right now I had to go back to a time when Life was good and tap into it Adobo Jack
This song got me crying, through everything I went through,I felt like GOD talk to me through earth wind and fire...thank you, beautiful angelic voices....
I’m and 80’s baby but the 70’s and 60’s is my kind of music as well. Growing up in a household full of older people they taught me what great music was
To all that responded to this song this is a message from the Lord Jesus Christ keep your hands up to the sky be thankful for what you have and never give up hope in the name of Jesus Amen 🙏
This song has a lot of sentimental value for my Family. They played this during an outbreak of several tornadoes in Louisville KY to keep the kids calm. Almost a decade before my time, but it heavily influenced my Dad's love of EWF ❤ And I carry it forward for him. Take care, everyone.
...He gave me the Will to be free, Purpose to live is reality Keep my head to the sky for the clouds to tell why As grew I and with strength Master kept me as I repent...And He said Keep your head to the sky 💜💜💜 Thank God He gave EWF the lyrics to pen such a Beautiful, Powerful Spirit filled song that SAVED my life as a teenager. Amen Thank you Lord, thank you EWF, Some Powerful Brothers!
Each and ever time I hear this song it brings me confidence it’s so sad that music today can’t bring that same love that same joy to make us stronger rather then putting us down. Can I get a witness
I AM!!! I just turned 64 and this song has carried me thur EVERYTHING I've encountered to this day, so don't walk around with You head hangin' down, YAH's got you. And always remember that things aren't half as bad as it appears, just face your issues knowing that we all go thur something most of the time
That’s right bro I’m 65 and let me tell you this song hits me hard been listening since 1976 oh man how I seen this world change seen so many leave here so I’m saying KEEP YOUR HEAD TO THE SKY TILL THE CLOUDS TELL YOU WHY
That’s right bro I’m 65 and let me tell you this song hits me hard been listening since 1976 oh man how I seen this world change seen so many leave here so I’m saying KEEP YOUR HEAD TO THE SKY TILL THE CLOUDS TELL YOU WHY
Such an inspiring and uplifting song . When the going is tough, keep your head to the sky, when you hit rock bottom, keep your head to the sky , knowing with G-d help , with every setback is a comeback. Never give up , behind every no , there is a yes. Keep your head to the sky.
Since this song came out in 1973. I have been listening to this song still in 2023. I am 66 now and I have been keeping my head to the sky ever since. May God Bless everyone on EARTH.
Loving this song since age 10 - 1973 the year it came out. Timeless and Spirit Lifting. My Favorite Group always- Earth Wind & Fire. R.I.P. Maurice White.
The first time that I heard this song, I was in high school in 1973, and I asked one of my classmates Kenneth about this song. Kenneth was shot and killed in 1977 and every time I heard this song it brings back tears and memories.
I listened to this and was on my way, working for the City of New York. They had a click and I wasn't part of it. City employees are !!!!!! You have to be in it. They made my life miserable, they got me out, but I don't have to work anymore! God is good.
This song is a message of encouragement and faith. Keep looking up. Thank you Maurice White for living a full life we can forever enjoy your music and legacy.
I really needed to hear this right now . . A lot of unexpected things just happened to me and idk what to do but I know imma always keep my head to the sky ! ✊🏾
Who else is listening to this to help them cope with the situation at hand? All I know is that we need as much positivity in these times as we can get and there is no band that speaks of that positivity like Earth, Wind & Fire!
One of the most impressive quality of the Elements is they never compromise to sales records. Everyone knew EWF was about having a relationship with God’s and signing until the creator❤❤❤
When you look up things look different and you rise above higher and higher. Don't allow anything to distract your dreams or aspirations in life. When times get hard keep pushing forward and love yourself. Things will change for the better and without the bad we wouldn't recognize the good. God bless you and keep your head to the sky. Peace out 🥰🌿🌹💜😇☝️👑🔥😊🙏🌅🌈🛡️🕯️
Wow! This is so crazy because It brought me here as well. The scene where they came in and started playing cards. The song was so appropriate for that scene. Each of them going through their own personal struggles yet trying to keep their head up and be there for one another! That’s what we all need.
🌎Earth' 🌬Wind' &🔥Fire☝👑was sending a message from God and Egypt 🇪🇬 🙌 the teachings of truth and power from loving one another. Gave me the will to be free purpose to live is reality 💯 😪 Wow! I'm so a wake
Thankful & extremely grateful for the sacrifice our LORD & SAVIOR IYESUS KRISTOS made for all his people out of the labor of love & salvation… we are capable to do anything because of HIM so why not do what we should do. IT IS WRITTEN, The Most High has already won & no matter what we have to endure in this 3D world he wants us to be apart of his victory 🙏🏾 s/o to Earth, Wind & Fire speaking the Word of life thru this song 💯
When I was in High School, I was always listening to this song with my best friend from High School while we did our homework. Now I am listening to it, I just want to cry, now he is locked up in the Pen. for Life. He started hanging around with gangs in his later life and was caught up in a drive by shooting and the person was killed. My father went to court the day he was sentenced and wrote a letter to the judge on how good of student and great athlete he was. This song always keeps me strong in faith. I just see how life can sometimes throw a curve ball.
Once again I have to say this band is in a class all by themselves! The contribution to the World of music by these guys is Universal! Spiritual uplifting music with substance and meaning. I grew up on this music, and would not want to change it for todays dull same ole sounding "Jive"! Point blank! Can u dig it! 😎🎵✌💜
I'm 48 yrs old and I still tell myself to keep my head to the sky because life will throw you curve balls even if you are doing everything right and you know you dont deserve the agony but I keep my hope alive for a better future and keep pressing on.
A year ago I was in shock, my only child had just passed away. Now a year later, I feel his absence profoundly. My older sister passed last March. Her daughter asked me about EWF songs her mother liked I told her all of them! Her mother introduced me to EWF and this was the first song I heard by them Keep Your Head To The Sky.
When this song came out in 1973, I was a senior in High School and I asked one of my classmates name Kenneth Austin (Big time) who is singing that song and he told me Earth, Wind & Fire. Kenneth was killed in 1977, and this song brings back memories and tears.
Sorry for your loss Vera. When I heard "Keep Your Head To The Sky" I was 14. EWF was a part of my high school and early adulthood years. My niece did a tribute to her mother using "That's The Way of the World" as background music.
One of the greatest r&b groups of all time. To this day their music brings joy, happy memories that takes me back in time. You just don't have music like this anymore. Soulful sounds that you can feel.
gotta clock into work at 6am..it’s 555am and I’m sitting here in my car crying tears of joy. Thank you Maurice. You knew what was up and that we as black folks need healing and love 💗. KEEP YOUR HEAD TO THE SKY MY BEAUTIFUL BLACK PEOPLE WE GONNA BE AIGHT
I lost my mother Dec 22 2021 day after my birthday at our home in her room I was with her whole time Mama u in the sky now Love you missing you 💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖💖 ❤❤❤❤❤❤

This is a beautiful song illuminating the importance of faith❣️
Heavy on faith 🔥🔥🔥
Faith (Forever Always I Trust He
Master told me one day
I'd find peace in every way,
but in search for the clue
wrong things I was bound to do
Keep my head to the sky
for the clouds to tell me why
As I grew with strength
Master kept me as I repent
Keep your head to the sky
Keep your head to the sky
Gave me the will to be free
purpose to live is reality
Found myself never alone
changes come to make me strong
Step right up, be a man
You need faith to understand
so we're saying for you to hear
Keep your head in faith's atmosphere
Keep your head to the sky
Keep your head to the sky

Wow! This is so crazy because It brought me here as well. The scene where they came in and started playing cards. The song was so appropriate for that scene. Each of them going through their own personal struggles yet trying to keep their head up and be there for one another! That’s what we all need.
That was such a beautiful scene of them supporting a friend in need...❤️

When I was in High School, I was always listening to this song with my best friend from High School while we did our homework. Now I am listening to it, I just want to cry, now he is locked up in the Pen. for Life. He started hanging around with gangs in his later life and was caught up in a drive by shooting and the person was killed. My father went to court the day he was sentenced and wrote a letter to the judge on how good of student and great athlete he was. This song always keeps me strong in faith. I just see how life can sometimes throw a curve ball.
R.I.P Maurice White.

A year ago I was in shock, my only child had just passed away. Now a year later, I feel his absence profoundly.
My older sister passed last March. Her daughter asked me about EWF songs her mother liked
I told her all of them! Her mother introduced me to EWF and this was the first song I heard by them
Keep Your Head To The Sky.
Awesome...I just sent this to my son and nephew as a reminder to them on RESURRECTION DAY.
@@jamesknox4436 Amen! Keep your head to the sky and have faith in Jesus!
When this song came out in 1973, I was a senior in High School and I asked one of my classmates name Kenneth Austin (Big time) who is singing that song and he told me Earth, Wind & Fire. Kenneth was killed in 1977, and this song brings back memories and tears.
Sorry for your loss Vera.
When I heard "Keep Your Head To The Sky" I was 14. EWF was a part of my high school and early adulthood years. My niece did a tribute to her mother using "That's The Way of the World" as background music.
@@michellemeighan1604 Thank you Michelle!
God bless!🙏🏾
One of the greatest r&b groups of all time. To this day their music brings joy, happy memories that takes me back in time. You just don't have music like this anymore. Soulful sounds that you can feel.
This song makes me cry thinking about my beautiful black men.. keep your heads up King’s....

When I was stationed overseas, this song 🎵 gave me the faith 🙏 and strength to survive and be the man that I was expected to be!
We still knocking this heavy in 2024
This song is full of wisdom. This has always been my favorite group, this song never gets old.

The great Phillip Bailey on Lead Vocals!
+Monica RW yep, he killed it on this song. The last note was Jessica Cleaves (female pictured) who was with the band at the time but left for Parliament.
+poppingjaz phillip bailey couldnt hit that note??? hes seen him do it in concerts... 😩
poppingjaz I strongly believe Phillip Bailey hit that note as he have MANY times singing this song, since.
+Monica RW the very last high note was Cleaves. It's in her biography(RIP) and Bailey even says it's her
Link please?
1973: I'm a freshman in college. becoming a man listen to this song. i still play at often❤❤
