he sang this at Soulfest and towards the end I broke down and cried. The most powerful experience of my life. I really saw Christ for the first time that night.
He was spat on, whipped, and crucified for us. He took the weight of the world upon his shoulders so we don't have to :) Don't take the insults to heart, God knows you love Him!
this song is amazing, even though this song was about Christian and I'm Muslim but I really enjoy this. This was my lullab every single night. Good job, The Almost !
as a christian i try to do whats right but the devil keeps trying to make me fall and lose faith but i cant let him win. its so easy to do whats wrong but so hard to do whats right. i wish i could give god my all without sin.
God is amazing, I can't believe I found this version of the song. I was sad because I thought I'd never hear it again. I forgot the band name, and looked up amazing grace.... this was the second one I clicked on.... just a testimony of me appreciating life and God. Thanks for posting. I subscribed cuz of it.
i been listen the almost when i was 14 years old now i am 20 years old n i am still listing 2 him n i feel bad when he left the band Underoath i love you aaron u are the best drummer ever
Yea when this flesh & heart shall fail & mortal life shall cease I shall possess within the veil A life of joy and peace When we've been here ten thousand years Bright shining as the sun We've no less days to sing God's praise Than when we've first begun Amazing Grace is a powerful hymn and personally I think that there is no way that its about a girl.
Amazing Grace how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me I once was lost but now am found was blind but now I see T'was Grace that taught my heart to fear & Grace my fears relieved How precious did that Grace appear the hour I first believed Through many dangers toils & snares I have already come 'Tis Grace that brought me safe thus far & Grace will lead me home The Lord has promised good to me His word my hope secures He will my shield & portion be As long as life endures (next comment)
As Christians if we leave him alone then we arent doing our job. Pray they mess with you, thats you opening to show them Jesus in your kindness and love
My cousin was murdered when he was 21, and i listen to this song everyday, It reminds me of him. He was the nicest person ever, and he helped people every day. I will never forget him. ♥
Man, this has got me welling and tearing up emotionally...we're all prodigals! Today, I chatted with eldest cousin briefly on facebook. I just pray he'd stop committing adultery and come back home to his family and especially God.
Why is everyone fighting about god? this is such a beautiful song and when I listen to it I dont even think about religion at all. I just hear beautiful lyrics about having a savior but does that savior have to be a figure that doesnt exsist that they use to explain things that they are afraid if or an excuse for things saying "oh god did it so it was meant to be". And why are you even fighting about religion? Everyone have their own views and you dont have to shove it down each others throats.
The part where he sings about amazing grace was not originally written by him. I don't want to start an argument by the original song Amazing Grace was written by a man named John Newton who at one point was a slave trader and did horrible things to people and then God completely changed his life around because God could have punished him and hated him for the things he did but he didn't he gave him grace. ("Amazing grace, how sweet the sound that saved a wretch like me") see next comment
@ShadyFrey because the band probably doesnt want people to stay at their computer screens fixated forever and die of starvation They need their fans ya know(:
@whowasthatguy7 I think you're right and the song doesn't necessarily have to be about God, but he fact that the band is christian might have something to do with it meant to be about God. I guess for people who don't know the band is christian they can make the song be about someone else and that's what's cool about most christen bands these days, they can get their message out there and not have to shove it down anybody's throat :)
Ok are you guys in denial that the Almost IS a Christian band??? This song is undoubtedly about God. I don't understand how you could be so misguided as to think it was anything else. That being said, this is truly an amazing song. I love Arron's voice :)
i really wish people would stop posting things about god in comments. it kind of bugs me. i respect others religion and such, i have nothing against it, but im atheist and would rather not read all of that stuff on something like this, i like reading about the music itself, or something to that extent. not a religious debate started beause a hypocritical christian posted something on his belief, envoking others. just listen to the music and leave religion out, thats all i ask.
@CaramelMarshmallow I will, thank you for the advice, by the way, you should try to speak spanish, maybe you´ll become more globalized, or maybe just try to understand a single sentence in spanish without using a traductor ;)
Why must people have to put their input on their religion just keep it to your self. It's obviously going to cause trouble. It's a beautiful song and it can be about how you interpret it
@LovelyVanity09 no he allowed us to have the choice of making it good or bad.....and guess what.....we made it bad.....not you and me....but humans as a whole....we are cursed because of it...and soGod being so loving...actually allowed His Son to die for us...HIS SON!!!!! think about that....one man....taking on the burdens of the world so we dont have to....i dont care what anyone says but that sounds like someone who loves me more than imaginable...and He loves you the same way. God Bless
@890nana123 do you see the word 'god' anywhere in this song? im just saying, if you believe its about god, thats cool, but dont turn a SONG into a DEBATE. im not going to go any further than saying that, because that will make me into a hypocrite
@CaramelMarshmallow sssooop well just keep doing what you do, keep tryin to show ur self as a prefect person and us as i dont kno as however u want to make us look like, its cool, we know we aint perfect, so weird you think of ur self as perfect and point out our every mistake, anyways keep up with ur productive life, sounds fun, and just stop trolling videos, thats the lowest thing u can be seriously its no good for u or anyone ellse
Sometimes I wish there was just one religion, those who believe in God and those who don't. I understand that people have different revelations, but what does it matter in the end? There's no in between there is just Heaven and hell. Acts 16:31: Believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and you will be save you and your household I don't get why people make such a big deal about What you have to dress like and what you have to do.
@MYCGORD heres the thing. everytime someone like u comes on to say something about God and such u always say that ppl who dont believe "..need to get (their) life straight." well lots of ppl dont believe. and most for really stupid reasons.them yes do need to get their life straight. however their r many of us who dont believe simply bc we dont NEED to. i believe in myself. i believe in the friends that believe in me. and thats all i need. and its what makes me happy.
@890nana123 i know this. but do you know for sure that it IS about god? i say noone knows until they ask the artists themselves. it may mean somethin else completely to them. and besides, this has nothing to do with it, all im saying is, i dont think we should fill the whole comment section with religious debates.
I understand you don't believe.. but some of us do. To say "too bad it's about some make believe sky fairy.." ? Nah. No make believe and definitely no sky fairy.
everyone uses the excuse that if theres a God then why does he let such bad things happen..God is not everything good..he created both good and evil..Heaven is a place where all things are perfect..Hell is a place where all things are terrible...the world we live in is nothing more than a test..its not his job to make us happy or be fair..some people are put through more..i dont know why..but every bad thing that happens is to test how we handle it..
I understand that people don't believe in god but others do. To believe in god is to love him and respect him. Be a decent human being and stop calling him "an invisible man, or sky fairy" to us who believe an who have felt him this is a serious disrespect.
@CaramelMarshmallow you are absolutelly right!!!! and well if ur talking about grammar you must be quite the languaje expert huh??? wow so i expect ur next comment to be in my bornn languaje, if u cant its cool i dont care, its funny how atheist people go arrownd finding peope to troll, and then say and point out theyre mystakes, dont like me its okay, you only come here to get people madd and then start pointing out their mystakes lol sounds like a very productive life, so keep it up
@CaramelMarshmallow Starving pll in any part of the world?, belive me this is not jesus fault, jesus died by us, you should think it twice, think about the wars we made, for territoy money, oil and stuff, and u still think is jeasus fault? I dont care if u dont belive in him, but i want u to know, that he belives in you bro
@MYCGORD Are you saying you HAVE to have Jesus inside of you to become better? Or else your life is not "straight"? Right... gotcha fella. Well, unfortunately, this is the reason why Christianity fails; because the majority of Christians are reading only the bible and the majority of them of hypocrites and think their beliefs are superior. You only reach for a certain facet of spiritual philosophy, the Bible. The bible doesn't account for the other 80% of the spiritual truths. Go figure.
he sang this at Soulfest and towards the end I broke down and cried. The most powerful experience of my life. I really saw Christ for the first time that night.
I've loved this song since I was 13, now I'm almost 21
Frida Leon me too
I was 21 when this comment was posted..I'm 26 now, and absolutely I'm still in love with this song
Almost 28 now?
He was spat on, whipped, and crucified for us. He took the weight of the world upon his shoulders so we don't have to :) Don't take the insults to heart, God knows you love Him!

So..gingers do have souls. :] I love this song, it's so beautiful.
My cousin was murdered when he was 21, and i listen to this song everyday, It reminds me of him. He was the nicest person ever, and he helped people every day. I will never forget him. ♥
@3:00 I honestly want to cry, it's so beautiful. God truly is amazing. "You're amazing" :)
this song gave me goose bumps when the choir voiced out and drums came in. so amazing!
Getting a chest tattoo that says "Now I'm found" bc this song is the best
💜
Thanks for having written the words of my heart.
Sure that everything has a meaning and this meaning is You.
I don't even believe in God but this is a really great song.
what do you belive? Cuz once i was lost but now im found.
For anyone wondering, Aaron G. Said "it feels so bad when you're not around"
I'm in 2020 best song to listen to right now
I love it when he says, "I'm the type of guy" Makes my heart melt(:
i'm atheist but i love underoath, the almost, and i love this song. My musical preference doesn't decide my religious choice's.
Everyone, set your differences aside, and listen to the beautiful music playing.
My favorite version of Amazing Grace! But this song is very hard to sing.
i haven't found a song by these guys that i don't like. simply amazing.
Man, this has got me welling and tearing up emotionally...we're all prodigals! Today, I chatted with eldest cousin briefly on facebook. I just pray he'd stop committing adultery and come back home to his family and especially God.
I get to see them the weekend at YCNL :) can't wait.
i love Aaron and whenever I hear this I think of the words that I thought of when I first heard monster by the almost... holy hot damn thats good :)
i just left being with a great friend of mine and he was singing this its a great song i love it
im happy to hear about this guys turn in on, God is so Great.
Love, Love, Love. :)

4 people are not amazing...because they're not.
My favorite version of Amazing Grace:)
Beautiful song (: ~

I finally found this song i love it
GOD please save right now ❤

Music is to be interpreted by the individual listener.
Damn, im in love with this voice xd.

@CaptinCrunchBrunos "It feels so bad when you're lost and alone..."
@MYCGORD See thats how we need to be reaching people! Not shoving the bible down everyones throat but still telling people about Jesus! I dig it man!
man arons voice is so strong he broke my speakers
SING THIS TO OUR LORD!
greatt video:D
@ShadyFrey because the band probably doesnt want people to stay at their computer screens fixated forever and die of starvation
They need their fans ya know(:
I'm so online with this song !
perfect voice
Amen
This is my modern song
@whowasthatguy7
I think you're right and the song doesn't necessarily have to be about God, but he fact that the band is christian might have something to do with it meant to be about God.

2024 anybody?
Ok are you guys in denial that the Almost IS a Christian band??? This song is undoubtedly about God. I don't understand how you could be so misguided as to think it was anything else. That being said, this is truly an amazing song. I love Arron's voice :)
@icesus123 THANK YOU! finally, someone understands...
preach it
@CaramelMarshmallow i'd just like to say: amen.
2019
i really wish people would stop posting things about god in comments. it kind of bugs me. i respect others religion and such, i have nothing against it, but im atheist and would rather not read all of that stuff on something like this, i like reading about the music itself, or something to that extent. not a religious debate started beause a hypocritical christian posted something on his belief, envoking others. just listen to the music and leave religion out, thats all i ask.
*inlove
how come on every video there's some kind of religious debate? just listen to the song.
😀
Olá! Lancei um vídeo sobre The Almost, e falo sobre um disco deles. Fica o convite.
@newelvestr that's* you're* Good thing you didn't call me stupid. You'd be in trouble again.
@CaramelMarshmallow I will, thank you for the advice, by the way, you should try to speak spanish, maybe you´ll become more globalized, or maybe just try to understand a single sentence in spanish without using a traductor ;)
To much god talk, just listen to the damn song! Dont fight over such a beautiful song, let people believe what they want to.
Why must people have to put their input on their religion just keep it to your self. It's obviously going to cause trouble. It's a beautiful song and it can be about how you interpret it

End of 2020 😅
@890nana123 i know this. but do you know for sure that it IS about god? i say noone knows until they ask the artists themselves. it may mean somethin else completely to them. and besides, this has nothing to do with it, all im saying is, i dont think we should fill the whole comment section with religious debates.
good song :)
not to be rude but try to work on your timing a bit...
but awesome dude
No offense but I just like the song cause its good. I see no need to fight over our religions.....even if its what the song is about.....
I understand you don't believe.. but some of us do. To say "too bad it's about some make believe sky fairy.." ? Nah. No make believe and definitely no sky fairy.

I understand that people don't believe in god but others do. To believe in god is to love him and respect him. Be a decent human being and stop calling him "an invisible man, or sky fairy" to us who believe an who have felt him this is a serious disrespect.
@heyyhaleyyy that was the dumbest comment ive ever read. atleast try to make sense
@CaramelMarshmallow you are absolutelly right!!!! and well if ur talking about grammar you must be quite the languaje expert huh??? wow so i expect ur next comment to be in my bornn languaje, if u cant its cool i dont care, its funny how atheist people go arrownd finding peope to troll, and then say and point out theyre mystakes, dont like me its okay, you only come here to get people madd and then start pointing out their mystakes lol sounds like a very productive life, so keep it up
@newelvestr Again, ironic that you call me a prick and you told someone that the world would be better without them.
tell me bout it
This is an awesome song, his voice is just amazing... that being said, too bad it's about some make believe sky fairy.
@CaramelMarshmallow Starving pll in any part of the world?, belive me this is not jesus fault, jesus died by us, you should think it twice, think about the wars we made, for territoy money, oil and stuff, and u still think is jeasus fault?
