Oh boy this is another one. So this song has always been precious to me long before I had children. After kids, I can barely listen to this song anymore because I'm usually a blubbering mess by the time it's over. It gives me renewed tenderness toward my kids. What a perfect analogy for how God sees his children. These words speak life. Love you guys.
Psalm 51:10 create in me a clean heart O God and renew a right spirit within me. This is a great verse and they used it to spread the truth great idea five iron frenzy
My brother in law introduced me to this band back in the early 2000s with The End is Here album, when I was still just dating his sister. I was a new christian who loved music, and I told him I whish I knew more good christian music. Dallas, TX had 89.7 Power FM at that time, which was more my speed than what most christian radio stations played, but I was missing Ska! This was at the height of bands like Sublime and Reel Big Fish. As an Alto, Tenor, and Bari saxophones player in both the concert and jazz bands, I needed something to fill that need, and boy did F.I.F.! Your band was a huge blessing to me in my walk, and still is even now as I've introduced my sons to your music.
Found this song today and found myself breaking down at such a strong imagery of love and remind of how great God's love is. Thank you for a wonderful song and profound message, praise God.
While I'm adamantly not religious, there's a particular warmth found in FIF's music, even with their songs that are more religious. There's a certain comfort with this song, like a blanket during autumn when the whether starts to get cold, and a universal love which, no matter which religion you believe in (or lack thereof), you can take comfort in as a tribute to love That and they're good musicians, the instrumentation during the chorus is beautiful and probably my favorite instrumental of any FIF song
I remember listening to to this in HS (graduated 2002). And, I still love this song. Always makes me tear up when I truly listen to the lyrics. Love you FIF!
Your music has been stuck in my head for decades I haven't actually heard it in probably 15 years I just thought of pulling it up on RUclips today. Thank you guys so much for posting this.
This is a song I listened to growing up. But unlike a lot of other music I listened to this song stayed with me. The imagery in this song is so simple but so beautiful and it is possibly the best way I have found to put love into words. The part at the end about the father has always seemed especially beautiful. My dad passed when I was 9 so I didnt know him very well but when I hear that part I feel it so deeply that I cant describe it. Thank you for this song and the music that you gave us. It means more than you know
Im not a christian anymore but i will always love FIF. Especially Jeff the girl.j/k A truly inspired band and one of the best shows ive ever seen. This EP was epic. Fair thee well comrads.
Same, I found this song a few months before I stopped believing, and even though i don't believe the message anymore, I can't find a song quite the same...
I swear that this song was made for me and my mom I have never been the best son but she always sees good in me playing this song reminds me that good is out there because if she can see good in me I can see good in others I love you mom

My mother was a very strict southern Chritian and this song made her ask out loud "Is this the real freedom in Christ?"
I don't care how little-known these guys are. These songs are timeless and it's impossible to over-play them.
I'm here having a trip down nostalgia lane with a friend. This was the first CD I ever bought.
100% totally agree 😊
Beatles and The Beach Boys have entered the chat

One of the most spiritually moving images/parallels I’ve heard, has been so since I first heard it the year it came out. AND it’s catchy.
Glad to be used by God in whatever small way he chooses.

You bet. Stay tuned.

Those where the FIF days! ❤️ Beautiful wind arragements, lovely melodies. I miss so much this in their new albums 😢
Between 1999-2001 I used to frequently blast this song. Ah... Memories... I still like the song.
I remember listening to to this in HS (graduated 2002). And, I still love this song. Always makes me tear up when I truly listen to the lyrics. Love you FIF!
So simple yet so simply profound. This song always manages to choke me up at the bridge.
Shared the chorus lyrics with my recovery group tonight. Glad to be a dandelion.

Reminds me of Mom every time I hear it.
Me too! Pull this song up every time the dandelions come out. Always near mother's day. Over 30 years old and I still pick a few for her every year.
Thanks!
Im not a christian anymore but i will always love FIF. Especially Jeff the girl.j/k

Almost all the FIF videos in this playlist are blocked here in Hong Kong. Really weird.
Jesse O'Reilly really? I’m having no problems playing them and I live in Happy Valley.
are they still?
@@amityamityamityamity9086 No idea. I’m no longer in HK, either.
I wish I had a mothers
Erik Red Oh Lord, I'm here if you want to talk.
