I remember being 15 and they played this at a live show after A LOT OF BEGGING from the audience, and the audience sang the childrens' part.....wow...what a memory
my specific performance was at the Warehouse Live in Houston in....2008? I think I found a video of a similar thing happening by searching live performances of the song. It was very haunting in the small intimate space of the Studio room though.
this is their encore song now, they're on tour right now in case you didn't know. But if you didn't it's probably too late lol all their shows sold out almost immediately, luckily i was able to get tickets to 2 of their shows and had never seen them before last night. It was definitely something i will never forget. I grew up listening to them and it was a must to see them if they ever got back together haha
Most underrated band of all time. Been listening to them since Blueprints for the Black Market in 2003. Blessed to finally see them live for the last time in Florida in December.
my favorite favorite favorite song makes me feel like crying sometimes especially driving on the road through virginia and west virginia forever it makes evrything better beautiful song!!!!
I've heard allot of people saying that all Anberlin songs sounds pretty much the same, you know what I tell 'em? If it aint broken, don't fix it. Never change Anberlin, keep on rocking!
I wish more people knew about anberlin because there music is amazing. Wanna hear another great song? Dismantle Repair by Anberlin almost as epic as this masterpiece.
This is one of the most amazing, breathtaking, and outstanding pieces of music in recorded music history! Seriously, every note is amazing and not one second of this epic masterpiece is left to go to waste. This is musical brilliance at it's best!
More I listen to this song, better I know my soul. It's crying from joy that something this beautiful has just reached it and my soul is now free :D This is an epiphany.
A quite recent band but wow, how great are they !! Whenever I feel a bit down, I just have to listen to them and BANG !! I'm up to anything, one of my favorite band of all time !!
stuhlz This song isn't talking about God. The band said it's about a father who was a pastor who left his family, supposedly for the ministry. At this point I want to say that because their is not vocal inflection or nonverbal communication in comments like mine, I want to make sure my comment to come off as coming from a know-it-all. I only know this info from a sibling who did some digging on the subject and I'm sure you know lots that I don't I just thought you might want to know.
These lines give me the chills: "Widows and Orphans aren't Hard to Find" "Wish your drinking would hurry and Kill you" "We're not questioning God" and of course the best " We're no better, you'll see, Just all of us the lost causes" I'm seeing them in La Mirada tomorrow, cant wait!
I find it amusing that some of these people have nothing better to do than keep track of what arguments they are having with someone likely hundreds of miles away... Epic way to spend time! Then again, I am taking 30 seconds to write this comment. Worth it.
thats one of the best part about their songs, you can listen to it blindly and just enjoy the melody, or you can analyze every last word and then truly understand the meaning of the song
I am so happy there are people like you. Yes we can't argue with unbelievers all we can do is talk with them and teach them. The Holy Spirit can do the rest. The only time we should argue is if they start teaching false stuff. Even Jesus got mad in the Bible when people disrespected what was right, by throwing parties in the temple and proclaiming false teaching to people. You seem to know the Bible pretty well. Thanks again. TazKongMcgraw
@maxoutmusic it was just pure amazement, high energy, both my shoes were ripped apart by the end of the show, and they played Ready Fuels last! It was so cool, the college crowd was awesome, they never stopped moving, and they played a perfect set, opening with godspeed and all, nothing is better than a good band and a good crowd, and thats what we got =)
Sad that such an amazing song has so many ignorant and negative comments. I personally am not Christian, but I still appreciate the beauty of this song.
I'm an atheist, and i found two songs i really liked that were interpreted by christian bands. This proves music is different than words. IT IS ABOUT THE MUSIC, because that is the real cure to everything :) Make love, not war :)
Been listening to anberlin since I was like, 7. Gotten through the worst in my life using their music. And when I felt my most callous and numb I played this song to remind myself how to feel
While listening to this song, I looked up who the patron saint of lost causes was and I found out that it's St. Jude. I flipped out when I found this out because I volunteer for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, a charity hospital that treats children with catastrophic diseases. I never knew what St. Jude was the patron saint for, and I just thought this was a crazy cool coincidence because I love Anberlin :]

I remember being 15 and they played this at a live show after A LOT OF BEGGING from the audience, and the audience sang the childrens' part.....wow...what a memory

Anberlin and Taking Back Sunday are two of the most talented American rock bands ever!
My top 2 favs
My absolute favorite part is when the kid choir comes in. It sounds amazing with the heavy guitars and drums.
I'm going to miss Anberlin so much! I'd get down on my knees and beg them to stay together, but it's a lost cause.
Punpunpunpunpunpunpunppunpunpunpunpunpunpunpunpunpunpunpunpun
don't be sad that it's over be glad it happened.
Aren’t you glad they’re back together 😀
I remember back in the day this was in one of my favorite halo montages, still remember it. :) miss those days.
I've heard allot of people saying that all Anberlin songs sounds pretty much the same, you know what I tell 'em?
If it aint broken, don't fix it.
Never change Anberlin, keep on rocking!
I wish more people knew about anberlin because there music is amazing. Wanna hear another great song? Dismantle Repair by Anberlin almost as epic as this masterpiece.
I really need to stop falling in love with bands that aren't together anymore.
Just give it a couple years. You can see them again.
No problem, there are a ton of great artists that are dead, not together is hardly a barrier.
Surprise
they announced a album for this suffering..
New album and touring right now...
I love the choir, Realy Uplifting, I loved the way Fragtality and Sticktality Used this and Feel good Drag in the Contest Winning Montage (halo 3)
Thats what brought me here 12 yrs later :,)
This is one of there greatest songs I love Anberlin, and this song is sheer genius
Best album closer ever!
This song is amazingly awesome, but most of their music is very enlightening and heart felt. love this band!
This song has so much emotion and Intensity at the same time...
beautiful
I remember this song in mw2 montages! Good old days
Give me goosebumps everytime
The best song that was used in Counter-Strike 1.6 movies! I fucking cry when I listen to this... I love those memories & this whole song.
This is one of the most amazing, breathtaking, and outstanding pieces of music in recorded music history! Seriously, every note is amazing and not one second of this epic masterpiece is left to go to waste. This is musical brilliance at it's best!
I was at the last Orlando show. We sang with tears.
4:30 gives me goosebumps. Such a talented vocalist!!
If you want bone-chilling goosebumps hear the full version 7:01
4ever in my heart
More I listen to this song, better I know my soul. It's crying from joy that something this beautiful has just reached it and my soul is now free :D
This is an epiphany.
A quite recent band but wow, how great are they !!
Whenever I feel a bit down, I just have to listen to them and BANG !! I'm up to anything, one of my favorite band of all time !!
Am I the only one who feels like their heart is getting ripped out of their chest?
AH!, this band is flawless.
1 word : dualtality
Anberlin - Fin dafuk you're here
OMG. Anberlin is my FAVORITE BAND EVER.
I'm glad that there are still people out there that have a strong faith in Jesus Christ. Thank you, and I'm praying with you for all of these people.
Ouvindo essa música há 7 anos.
Quem for brasileiro deixa o like!
E aê, ouço desde 2006
the BEST between 2:40 and 3:20 !!
i can't stop listening to this song
anberlin never fails. never.
This song ♥ ♥ ♥
Yes I get that you're the patron saint of lost causes. But I still love you
stuhlz This song isn't talking about God. The band said it's about a father who was a pastor who left his family, supposedly for the ministry.

Thank you for posting that! I always said his lyrics are like modern psalms, and this proves it!
this song is rather somber...awesome! dance dance christa paffgen brought me here, another personal favorite of mine
Banging montage music
Out of all rock music Christian heavy whatever ain't nothing beat the kid opera choir at the end. so amazing!
These lines give me the chills:
"Widows and Orphans aren't Hard to Find"
"Wish your drinking would hurry and Kill you"
"We're not questioning God" and of course the best " We're no better, you'll see, Just all of us the lost causes"
I'm seeing them in La Mirada tomorrow, cant wait!
the part from 3:15 - the "choir" made me get goosebumps, just cant stop listening to this song now when i first found it :)
Guitar Heroooooooo 😢😭
This is one of the best songs they have!
this song is amazing
I love the way this song's rythm increases in speed slowly.
anberlin is so freakin amazing!!!
I find it amusing that some of these people have nothing better to do than keep track of what arguments they are having with someone likely hundreds of miles away...
Epic way to spend time! Then again, I am taking 30 seconds to write this comment.
Worth it.
eRa Prisma + Muzik!
I co-founded that clan, really happy to see how far they're going
The best part of the song is that last line you mentioned. I love the buildup into the distorted guitar, just great.
god this song gives me goosebumps
4:30-4:42 is just awesome. I love his voice there
I feel privileged to have found this hidden gem, it never loses its magic.
Greatest song of all times and not even a million views! A shame, a true shame
this isn't a song, this is an anthem!
Anberlin together with Dredg are for me the best alternative rock bands. It's so a pity that there're not playing anymore. They put poetry in music
So True !
I love to stare out the window on a rainy day and listen to this....
duality is easily the greatest montage of all time, cod4, cod5, h2, any game
2 years later and still listening to this song.....
This isn't a song... This is a ballad. Truly incredible.
Greatest song of all-time!
OMG I love this song so much!
Honestly, this is my favourite song of all time..
i could spend the rest of my life listening to this song. 3:43 best part in history of music
this music remebers me that you need to live simple so others can live simple
2021 and still fire 🔥
thats one of the best part about their songs, you can listen to it blindly and just enjoy the melody, or you can analyze every last word and then truly understand the meaning of the song
I'll pray for you tho man,
Love yah,
God Bless
I want to cry when I hear this song. ultimate goosebumps. best song they have ever written.
me too lol i was searching for this song like an hour!
Anberlin's masterpiece song on their masterpiece album
"Patron Saint, are we all lost like you?"
Heh, weird but catchy sentence
I am so happy there are people like you. Yes we can't argue with unbelievers all we can do is talk with them and teach them. The Holy Spirit can do the rest. The only time we should argue is if they start teaching false stuff. Even Jesus got mad in the Bible when people disrespected what was right, by throwing parties in the temple and proclaiming false teaching to people. You seem to know the Bible pretty well.

this gives me so many shivers...
The choir is my favorite part.

What an epic song! Amazing layers of musical arrangement and prose.
This song is EPIC, so much that, no comment could ever possibly capture how epic it is...
Sad that such an amazing song has so many ignorant and negative comments.
I personally am not Christian, but I still appreciate the beauty of this song.
I got no words to describe this song... wonderful.
I'm an atheist, and i found two songs i really liked that were interpreted by christian bands. This proves music is different than words. IT IS ABOUT THE MUSIC, because that is the real cure to everything :)
Make love, not war :)
This song is perfection
Are you still alive?
Been listening to anberlin since I was like, 7. Gotten through the worst in my life using their music. And when I felt my most callous and numb I played this song to remind myself how to feel

This is maybe the greatest song ever written...seriously it's up there
A simply amazing song. A wonderful message too.
Absolutely beautiful.
I love this vocal! Amazing song!
BEST SOONG EVER!!!!!! LOVE IT
"We're not questioning God, just those he chose to carry on His cross." One of the most powerful lines I've ever heard in a song.
While listening to this song, I looked up who the patron saint of lost causes was and I found out that it's St. Jude. I flipped out when I found this out because I volunteer for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital, a charity hospital that treats children with catastrophic diseases. I never knew what St. Jude was the patron saint for, and I just thought this was a crazy cool coincidence because I love Anberlin :]
simply amazing
Just beautiful.
ohmygod.
