Oh God... this stirred my spirit man. Just yesterday someone spoke into my life and today i'm hearing this song after the longest time. I'm now restless, restlessly looking for the well that won't run dry. This song is just too beautiful. No words can describe how much this moves me. I think Jon manages to give us a glimpse, through the Holy Spirit, of what worship will be like in Heaven, on our knees in awe of His splendour!
"so Christ was sacrificed once to take away the sins of many; and he will appear a second time, not to bear sin, but to bring salvation to those who are waiting for him." Hebrews 9:28 NIV. (JUST went to Bible Gateway while listening to this song, and this was the Verse of The Day. TOTALLY matched the lyrics! Praise God!!)
That happened to me a while back with Bible Gateway verse of the day. King David talking about how he will seek God in a dry and barren land. That's exactly what God was telling me to do, seek him in the afflictions. That's when his strength is made perfect is in our weakness. That kind of goes along with the song as well I suppose. And yes that Hebrews verse is perfect 👌
I am the sea on a moonless night, Calling, falling, slipping tides I am the leaky, dripping pipes The endless aching drops of light I am the raindrop falling down, Always longing for the deeper ground I am the broken, breaking seas Even my blood finds ways to bleed Even the rivers ways to run Even the rain to reach the sun Even my thirsty streams, Even in my dreams I am restless, I am restless I am restless, looking for you I am restless, I run like the ocean to find your shore I'm looking for you I am the thorn stuck in your side, I am the one that you left behind, I am the dried up doubting eyes Looking for the well that won't run dry Running hard for the other side The world that I've always been denied Running hard for the infinite With the tears of the saints and hypocrites Oh blood of black and white and gray Death and life and night and day One by one by one We let our rivers run I am restless, I am restless I am restless, looking for you I am restless, I run like the ocean to find your shore Looking for you I can hear you breathing, I can hear you leading More than just a feeling More than just a feeling I can feel you reaching Pushing through the ceiling 'til the final healing I'm looking for you Until the sea of glass we meet At last completed and complete The tide of tear and pain subside Laughter drinks them dry I'll be waiting Anticipating All that I aim for What I was made for With every heartbeat All of my blood bleeds Running inside me Looking for you I am restless, I am restless I am restless, looking for you I am restless, I run like the ocean to find your shore I'm looking for you I can feel you breathing I can feel you leading More than just a feeling More than just a feeling I can feel you reaching Pushing through the ceiling 'til the final healing I'm looking for you I'm looking for you
My favorite verses in the song are these ones: (1:31) Running hard for the other side The world that I've always been denied Running hard for the infinite With the tears of the saints and hypocrites Oh blood of black and white and gray Death and life and night and day One by one by one We let our rivers run
I cry every time I hear this song. Thank you so much for your music. I knew you hear it every day, you heard it from me in person before, but seriously... I needed this today. May the Lord continue to use this music to touch lives.
Thank you for the gift of this song - I'm not certain if I thanked you when it was released and getting all that air play on KLOVE but the lyrics captured how I was feeling right before God began revealing the answers I'd been seeking. Deep crying out to deep even my blood within me bleeding for what was missing.
Probably my favorite off the album. Since music can be interpreted in so many different ways, for me this is "finding your soul mate" song. And I'm still looking.
I sort of think it's probably all of the above since God is love. The true soul mate relationship must be centered in love (God) and as two become one [in Him/love] they find Him and themselves. 1 John 4:16 God is love, and he who abides in love abides in God, and God in him.
cookiecloudy I agree I found mine.. we fell hard for one another.. created two beautiful daughters together Yet somehow how pressures of life got in the way things eventually fell apart The grief was equal to the glory that was “us” Like a lost soul I’ve been searching for her ever since It’s been almost a year.. the universe is possibly bringing us back together Much learned through the devastation of separating This was/is one of “our” songs ♥️
i don't see anything religious about this.. i actually take it literally, becoming so restless for someone.. someone that you can't just be without.. and there is all this weight of distance in between it causes you to pupl towards them with a stronger grip than you had the day before.. and that grows, and grows.. and grows. Jerily, i love you
...distance has such weight, love..but my love for you has the ability to move the mountains. nothing is stronger, and each day is a day closer to you. the restlessness will calm when I hold you again. I love you so...
+Gen O'Cide if you crawl, i will crawl with you.. there has bee shifts of landscape, within me.. since your love has ignited inside of me, all of time stood still.. and nothing else exists to me.. our aural combine.. our souls entwined.. closer.. closer to you
+spiralEyedGhost ...I have been born anew in you. glowing with who you are and the joy you give me..the hope..the future. the answered prayer that you are, the certainty I have in us.. in forever. I cherish you
+Gen O'Cide in forever, with you.. you are the rain, upon a fogged night.. an eternal darkness, with the garden of black flowers.. a throne in the center, with your majesty seated.. and i could never look away.. your love, is eternal as the wind
+spiralEyedGhost ...never look away, never turn away..from the golden autumn that is you. the fire scented night air..the warm cabin in the snow. I live in you now, and I always will
Restless isn't what I'm feeling anymore! I was there years ago. I'm through my heartbreak, and I am through giving up, now I'm so angry it's hard to find words. Still, not violent like the liars are lying about! So shut up about that people! I still hope I will go to heaven and will look forward to looking down on Hades and seeing my family and so-called friends. I will for once feel completely safe and comforted knowing the ones who used me to get what they wanted are there! 😉
Alexander Wilkes When they continue with what they've been doing, it's hard for me to forgive- I know Jesus was different- " Forgive them, Father. They know not what they do". I'm not there, I've tried, just continue to get angry. You are better than me if you can do that. Don't change!
If you could get into a more positive state of mind and just forget them and know they WULL have consequences like everybody else ! but don't wish them to hell even if they deserve it. NOT exactly a WWJD moment but I'm guilty of it too........ being that angry at a lot of people.
I'm no christian, never heard or read a single word of the bible before, just take this song literally, and MAN the song is beautiful on its own. You don't need a religion to understand that though

+daniel chan Try out Tendons by Bellarive, kind of a slow start, but the lyricism is powerful.
AMEN
Isn't it beautiful that we can speak and have a conversation over the years?

I am the sea on a moonless night,
Calling, falling, slipping tides
I am the leaky, dripping pipes
The endless aching drops of light
I am the raindrop falling down,
Always longing for the deeper ground
I am the broken, breaking seas
Even my blood finds ways to bleed
Even the rivers ways to run
Even the rain to reach the sun
Even my thirsty streams,
Even in my dreams
I am restless, I am restless
I am restless, looking for you
I am restless, I run like the ocean to find your shore
I'm looking for you
I am the thorn stuck in your side,
I am the one that you left behind,
I am the dried up doubting eyes
Looking for the well that won't run dry
Running hard for the other side
The world that I've always been denied
Running hard for the infinite
With the tears of the saints and hypocrites
Oh blood of black and white and gray
Death and life and night and day
One by one by one
We let our rivers run
I am restless, I am restless
I am restless, looking for you
I am restless, I run like the ocean to find your shore
Looking for you
I can hear you breathing,
I can hear you leading
More than just a feeling
More than just a feeling
I can feel you reaching
Pushing through the ceiling
'til the final healing
I'm looking for you
Until the sea of glass we meet
At last completed and complete
The tide of tear and pain subside
Laughter drinks them dry
I'll be waiting
Anticipating
All that I aim for
What I was made for
With every heartbeat
All of my blood bleeds
Running inside me
Looking for you
I am restless, I am restless
I am restless, looking for you
I am restless, I run like the ocean to find your shore
I'm looking for you
I can feel you breathing
I can feel you leading
More than just a feeling
More than just a feeling
I can feel you reaching
Pushing through the ceiling
'til the final healing
I'm looking for you
I'm looking for you
My favorite verses in the song are these ones: (1:31)
Running hard for the other side
The world that I've always been denied
Running hard for the infinite
With the tears of the saints and hypocrites
Oh blood of black and white and gray
Death and life and night and day
One by one by one
We let our rivers run
Its kind of paradoxical that the song is titled "Restless" but the tune itself is relaxing and soothing...
Every time I listen to this song I feel some close to the Holy Spirit ❤
This song and this album is super underratted, surely deserve more than this .
I cry every time I hear this song. Thank you so much for your music. I knew you hear it every day, you heard it from me in person before, but seriously... I needed this today. May the Lord continue to use this music to touch lives.

Probably my favorite off the album. Since music can be interpreted in so many different ways, for me this is "finding your soul mate" song. And I'm still looking.
Neat interpretation, but I kinda see it as "finding myself"
I sort of think it's probably all of the above since God is love. The true soul mate relationship must be centered in love (God) and as two become one [in Him/love] they find Him and themselves.
1 John 4:16
God is love, and he who abides in
love abides in God, and God in him.
+cookiecloudy I like this better than the christian ones, it's a great interpretation
cookiecloudy I agree
I found mine.. we fell hard for one another.. created two beautiful daughters together
Yet somehow how pressures of life got in the way things eventually fell apart
The grief was equal to the glory that was “us”
Like a lost soul I’ve been searching for her ever since
It’s been almost a year.. the universe is possibly bringing us back together
Much learned through the devastation of separating
This was/is one of “our” songs ♥️
Can’t tell you how much this song means to me. Thanks so much for writing it and sharing it with the world. This song speaks to my soul.
Oh God, this song made me so happy. They've still got it
Listening still in 2024 ✅
i don't see anything religious about this..
i actually take it literally,
becoming so restless for someone..
someone that you can't just be without.. and there is all this weight of distance in between it causes you to pupl towards them with a stronger grip than you had the day before.. and that grows, and grows..
and grows.
Jerily, i love you
...distance has such weight, love..but my love for you has the ability to move the mountains. nothing is stronger, and each day is a day closer to you. the restlessness will calm when I hold you again. I love you so...
+Gen O'Cide if you crawl,
i will crawl with you..
there has bee shifts of landscape, within me.. since your love has ignited inside of me, all of time stood still..
and nothing else exists to me..
our aural combine..
our souls entwined..
closer..
closer to you
+spiralEyedGhost ...I have been born anew in you. glowing with who you are and the joy you give me..the hope..the future. the answered prayer that you are, the certainty I have in us.. in forever. I cherish you
+Gen O'Cide in forever, with you..
you are the rain, upon a fogged night.. an eternal darkness, with the garden of black flowers.. a throne in the center, with your majesty seated..
and i could never look away..
your love, is eternal as the wind
+spiralEyedGhost ...never look away, never turn away..from the golden autumn that is you. the fire scented night air..the warm cabin in the snow. I live in you now, and I always will
Awesome song!
still love this song :)
This is my all time favorite song. And (imho) Jon Foreman's very best.
I'll waiting.. anticipating...

[Verse 1]
I am the sea on a moonless night
Calling falling, slipping tides
I am the leaky, dripping pipes
The endless, aching drops of lights
I am the raindrop falling down
Always longing for the deeper ground
I am the broken, breaking seas
Even my blood finds ways to bleed
[PreChorus]
Even the rivers ways to run
Even the rain to reach the sun
Even my thirsty streams
Even in my dreams
[Chorus]
I am restless
I am restless
I am restless
I’m looking for You
I am restless
I run like the ocean to find Your shore
Looking for You
[Verse 2]
I am the thorn stuck in Your side
I am the one that You left behind
I am the dried up doubting eyes
Looking for the well that won’t run dry
Running hard for the other side
The world that I’ve always been denied
Running hard for the infinite
With the tears of saints and hypocrites
[PreChorus 2]
Oh, blood of black and white and grey
Death in life and night in day
One by one by one
We let our rivers run
[Chorus]
I am restless
I am restless
I am restless
I’m looking for You
I am restless
I run like the ocean to find Your shore
Looking for You
[Bridge 1]
I can hear You breathing
I can hear You leading
More than just a feeling
More than just a feeling
I can feel You reaching
Pushing through the ceiling
Till the final healing
I’m looking for You
[Verse 3]
Until the sea of glass we meet
At last completed and complete
Where tide and tear and pain subside
And laughter drinks them dry
[Bridge 2]
I’ll be waiting
Anticipating
All that I aim for
What I was made for
With every heartbeat
All of my blood bleeds
Running inside me
Looking for You
Looking for You
[Chorus]
I am restless
I am restless
I am restless
I’m looking for You
I am restless
I run like the ocean to find Your shore
Looking for You
Looking for You
[Bridge 1]
I can hear You breathing
I can hear You leading
More than just a feeling
More than just a feeling
I can feel You reaching
Pushing through the ceiling
Till the final healing
I’m looking for You
I'm looking for You
