Playing tunes is clearly one of my favorite things... Filming myself doing it? Not so much... That said, being holed up at home, I’m beginning to really look forward to playing these songs for y’all…
Here’s one from the 1900s!

My daughter dragged me to a Switchfoot concert about 15 years ago. I went there dreading it and left a huge fan.
Haha thats so awesome!
Even if your hesitation was clear to her, that was an A+ dad move. My dad still finds tickets to bands he’s shared with me. Music is a special kind of love language.
I'm so sad. There was a switchfoot concert just yesterday in Melbourne in Australia,. I only found out about it like a day or so ago from my brother but couldn't find a way to get up to Melbourne, wish I'd gone now.
@@truthhunterhawk3932 oh no!! I was super sad when I hesitated to get tickets for the Brisbane concert, and then suddenly it was sold out, so I feel your pain. I'm sure they'll be back tho!! With my story though... it turned around because a few days before the concert, Paul Colman was in Brissy and got myself and my daughterin last minute, as he knows these guys. Because my daughter is only 6, we had to stand up the top level up the very back... could barely see. And next minute Jon Foreman went through the crowd during one of the early songs, came up the rear steps of the venue, and sung from up the top in the balcony where we were!! My daughter gave him a high-five which I got on video - was such an amazing moment!
Hope you get to go the next time they're in Australia!
I am comforted by the fact the even Jon Forman’s mini blinds just don’t work properly. I am not alone
David Macomber And that this is sincere enough that he doesn’t have helpers running around making stuff look perfect :)
And I am comforted knowing that I am not the only one who quickly noticed lol I love this song by the way ❤️
@@stevrgrs yes!
Yes! I thought that right away too 😄
David Macomber 😂🤣
"of your galaxy dancing and laughing and laughing again", love that line.
A Walk to Remember was my introduction to Switchfoot. I remember asking who was singing Only Hope during the wedding scene and going from there. I bought a three disc compilation of the 1st three albums, and I was hooked. So much so that Switchfoot's Only Hope was the first dance song for our wedding. Thanks for your great music!
Rachel Reeser That was nice!!! I can imagine it very romantic, mellow, and really heart felt...
A Walk to Remember was also my introduction to Switchfoot too.
A Walk To Remember is one of my favorite shows. It's very deep just like Switchfoot.
This is an awesome story
My older brother gave me an old, scratched up, burned copy of New Way To Be Human and I fell in love. I listened and sang along to that CD along with the skips so many times that I was thrown off by the "skipless" official version when I finally bought it
This song would have been my second request after Let That be Enough.
Jesus is our true hope, He is the anchor to our souls
I love 'Let that be Enough' too
Man that one hits hard.
Beautifully said
Jesus- You are my ONLY HOPE and the Love of my Life 💛
This song will never get older. Thank you Father for lending us Jon Foreman
“When it feels like my dreams are so far, sing to me of the plans that you have for me over again”...That line right there has been the most inspirational one in my life for so many years!
Such a great version. My wife walked down the isle to this song. Every time I hear it I’m thankful again for God’s grace that carries us and for his peace that goes beyond all understanding when we leave our lives in His hands.
Sweet sentiment to your wife. Cheers!
Nostalgia hits hard with this one. When I was 15 I broke my neck in a car accident. While semi bed ridden all summer I listened to all of the Switchfoot albums on my MP3 player on repeat. I would marathon through all of them at a time. Got me through the pain and depression.
I play this beautiful song for my daughter all the time just to pass on these wonderful vibes. She's now 3 and those vibes are still with her.
There's a song that's inside my soul
It's the one that I've tried to write over and over again
I'm awake in the infinite cold
But you sing to me over and over again
So I lay my head back down
And I lift my hands and pray to be only yours
I pray to be only yours
I know now you're my only hope
Sing to me the songs of the stars
Of your galaxy dancing and laughing and laughing again
When I feel like my dreams are so far
Sing to me of the plans that you have for me over again
And I lay my head back down
And I lift my hands and pray to be only yours
I pray to be only yours
I know now you're my only hope
I give you my destiny
I'm giving you all of me
I want your symphony
Singing in all that I am
At the top of my lungs I'm giving it back
So I lay my head back down
And I lift my hands and pray to be only yours
I pray to be only yours
I pray to be only yours
I know now you're my only hope
My wife and I danced our first dance to this song at our wedding! Love this!
This song, specifically your version, always makes me cry. I am from that generation who heard this song in that Nicholas Sparks movie that launched a thousand tear-stained eyes. I am not Christian, nor religious by any means, but your music is just...feels like comfort. Thank you for doing this, Jon!
Jesus sees you. He loves you❤
@jonforeman This song was popular at the most important time of my life. I was in the US military stationed in Fort Stewart, Georgia. 1999 was the year my father passed away, and I was not able to be by his side because I was in the army full time 24/7. I had to take furlough to able to attend my fathers funeral. I was so shaken up that my Company Commander and 1st Sergeant had to fly me in by airplane because I was so torn up inside and could not drive myself back home to view my father one last time. Thank you Jon for playing this song . It's one of my favorite Switchfoot songs.You have the best heart ❤️Jon Foreman.♥️❤️
Thank you for your great love Jon when you created this lovely melody. Jon, you have a heart of gold. From my heart to your heart unconditionally ♥️❤️
God bless you for your service!
Thank you for your service . God bless
Thanks for your service! 🇺🇸
Thank you so much for your service. I offer my deepest condolences and sympathies to you and your loved ones who's hearts miss your dearly departed father. Please stay healthy during these very challenging times, be of good courage, and stay positive. (Smile)
This song is too significant in my life, and that this comes out in these violent times is a reminder that God continues to take care of us . 😭🥰💘
laura donoso what? God doesn’t worry.
Sweet Laura, God doesn't worry. He's got everything under control! We might not understand what is happening but God has got a plan. We live in a fallen world, unfortunately that means that bad things do happen :( Yet when we turn to the Lord with our weakness He strengthens us in difficult times. God's got this. He is a Just God and knows the true outcome of all of this. I know it's still hard though.
I mean that He cares for all of us, He never leaves us! 🥰
Thanks, Laura. Beautifully stated, and so true.
I can't count the times that I go back to this song. It's such a wonderful reminder of God's grace and the hope He gives us. This song always turns my tears of sorrow to tears of joy for what He has given us!
those worldly pop singers TWISTED the original intention and meaning of the song Only Hope - it was written by Jon Foreman as a Devotional Song to God, not a romantic song between puny human beings
The song has been two decades where it still sounds fresh and young to my ear. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
Words that express my deepest desire. Thank you!
Hearing that guitar part again completely lifted my spirits. I love this song. I love Switchfoot! Thank you, Jon!
Can I just say, this is my favorite song of all time.
It is so beautiful.
It has comforted me ever since I was a teenager and now in my mid 30’s it’s still just as powerful. This song has such a special place in my heart.
My mom also loves it and we sing it together. ❤️
Thank you Jon for keeping us company during this difficult time. Stay safe.
I can’t even believe this is a persons real acoustic voice. I haven’t been this choked up ever, but this was absolutely the most magical.
I first saw Switchfoot as they opened for Third Day in Northern NJ in 1997. I walked in to see Third Day and walked out with a Switchfoot poster and CD. Been a fan ever since Jon. Appreciate you sharing with us during these unusual times. Thank you for yesterdays and todays (apostrophes excluded purposefully). :)
Wish third-day would continue to release albums
I've sang this song to each one of my kids before bed til they were at least 3.... These songs mean more than you know Jon. 😭 Love your spirit ❣️ HE alone IS our only hope. Love. Love. Love this. ❤️❤️❤️❤️
This song will never be old. It's indescribably soothing as well....
Wow the memories... downloaded this after watching some Mandy Moore movie... 21, in the army, living in sin, not following God whatsoever, but feeling this distant hope from this song.... now I know Christ and that Hope lives right inside me. What a difference praise God!
worldly pop singers TWIST the original intention and meaning of the song Only Hope - it was written by Jon Foreman as a Devotional Song to God, not a romantic song between puny human beings
no kidding. But even I as a reprobate fake convert knew it was about God@@vtino4825
The anthem of my teenage years, so many great memories. Thank you Jon for inspiring us!
YOU WILL NOT BELIEVE ME BUT BEFORE I LOGGED INTO RUclips I LITERALLY WAS THINKING IN MY MIND THE PIANO MELODY START OF MANDY MOORES MY ONLY HOPE!! I have not heard that song in 10 plus years! Then I logged on RUclips and YOUR UP PLAYING THIS!!! INCREDIBLE !!
Always and forevermore... Thank you!
God bless you...Thank you!
Lord have mercy he can play that guitar. Awesome 👏🏾
Wonderfully done 👏 So thankful you shared❤ Thank You Lord Jesus,✝️ Our Hope of Glory🙌
old favourite Jon, old favourite..
Hi Jon Foreman, I just wanted to say please don't stop doing this videos. Your music gives me hope that everything is going to be fine soon. More than fine. I'm pregnant and my baby was found with hydrocephalus while still in my womb, plus this Coronavirus going around like the devil, snatching people's lives, it's hard to get by day by day without being anxious and sad. But your music gives me hope and keeps me on the bright side. I've been a fan of you and Switchfoot since, and I love your music. Keep doing what you're doing, more power!
1900’s lol. A simpler time, you’ve got that right! Thanks for these songs to look forward to!
I look forward to your song everyday!!! Thanks so much!!!
Thanks man, this song was my saving grace, I was bullied a lot in grade school, I became a rebel in highschool always bruising and bloody'ing people who looked at me funny, I heared this song first time about 15 years ago and decided to get a guitar, I turned out pretty ok now.. thanks
Local boys dun good!
Love you guys
Great memories of NCCC In the shopping center. ✌️
'A Beautiful Letdown' is one of my greatest life albums. It was a banger in my early teen years.
I'm a 90s kid and I remember watching A Walk to Remember. It's how I discovered y'all. Simpler times indeed. Thank you for letting your light shine bright ❤️ God bless you!
One of my fav..song from the movie A walk to remember ♥️
All time favorite.
Thanks, Jon! Been a fan since the 90s. Pray y'all stay safe. Thanks for the tunes. So many of your songs are in the soundtrack of my life
i love your guitar, great sound , thanks for sharing sir Jon, our Lord Jesus is our only hope!
This song brings me memories
THANKS FOR LIFTING SPIRITS GOD BLESS YOU HOPE YOU ARE DOING WELL! !!STAY SAFE & STAY STRONG PRAYING FOR PEACE AND HEALING OF SPIRIT MIND AND BODY IN JESUS NAME WE PRAY AMEN !!❤💜💙💛💚💓💕💕💕
Jon - you taking the time to do these videos has been really encouraging. Thank you for loving people well!
My favorite song of all time!! 👏
Takes me back to a safer time. Thank you. God bless.
Thank you for playing Only Hope! I have been trying unsuccessfully to play this since the 1900s!! Now like you're sitting in the same room, I enjoy seeing how you have played this timeless song.
Two trips I had planned to go to the U.S. east coast have been canceled, and I’ve never been there before. He’s right, new things to look forward to. GOD’s got His plan, and this will fit perfectly.
When you get a chance, please come. Our tourism/cruise business has been hit hard by this pandemic.
@@josephbrandenburg4373 Dude, I'd love to. I'm planning to go as soon as I can once all this clears up. If it's in GOD's plan, I'm on my way.
Was one year when this was written. Wow. First heard the Mandy version. It's deep!
I had forgotten about this song....thanks for the reminder of our Hope!
What a deep and rich catalog of songs for hope. I look forward to these every day now, thank you!
This song still touches my heart ❤️ the way it did the first I heard it.
One of my absolute favorites! Thanks Jon for keeping our spirits up, and our minds occupied! You're a treasure! God Bless ya
I'm praying, keeping busy though my office closed, spending time with my hubby, trying to be 'strong' for those around me. This song made me cry. I needed that. Thank you, Jon, for being a blessing to us and to the Lord.
I will forever love this song. ❤️🎶
We miss you... Please come back to Cebu.... 🙏🙏🙏 God bless you...
Actually released March 11, 1999 ~ it was the year my only son was born. ✝️🙏♥️😊
"From the 1900's" HA!!!! Love it!!
Such a beautiful beautiful song🥹😭
This has been my all time favorite song for over 15 years. Love it.
Great job. Wow it's been almost 20 years since a walk to remember. Was watching the eclipse tonight and I this song popped in my head.
Omg one of my favorite song💚God Bless you Jon!!!
This is one of my favorite songs!
most beautiful voice in the world!!
My class and I played this song on graduation night back in 2003. My best friend, who was my guest of honor, came from a city 4 hours away to come be with me and to play bass with us. I was the guitar player, and after the long violin intro, I started playing just to find out the guitar I had borrowed (I didn’t have my own back then) was completely out of tune! I butchered such a beatiful song, but hey, it was an unforgettable moment (more for worse than for better).
thankyou for exist in my teenage days, dear jon
The most beautiful song
Always goosebumps on this song. Especially on “At the top of my lungs” 3:44
This was the song that I chose for the main dance in my weeding. Thank you for this master piece
Kinda heartwarming to watch one of my teenage playing days hero age. We are all getting old I guess.
Love love love this song
So much nostalgia in Jon's voice
Maybe my favorite Switchfoot song of all!
Cool...God bless you all
Jon, thank you for just being YOU... always encouraging, always stretching to create community...
A walk to remember🥰🥰🥰😥😥😥
My favorite song from a walk to remember
I love this song!
🇧🇷💟
What a wonderful song that I needed so much tonight _ Thank you!
This song is amazing! How beautiful the lyrics is ❤️
I used to call my best friend Hope, who has since passed away, My Only Hope. We were fortunate enough to see Switchfoot in concert. Best day ever. Miss my buddy :( Thanks for the memories Jon Foreman!
My Dad introduced me to Switchfoot and showed me “Restless”. He wanted to buy me the album it was on (Vice Verses), but he accidentally bought The Best Yet. I was 8 or 9 years old and listened to that album almost every day, I swear. He bought me Vice Verses too, and I listened to that one nonstop as well. I’m 16 now. Never got sick of any of those songs on either album, and Switchfoot remains one of my favorite bands ever. Thank you Switchfoot for all of the memories that you’ve given me. God bless my brothers 👊🏼
It's my favorite song! 😍
Thanks for the song Jon! And the reminder, that there is only one, who can be our only hope. I also have a request: could Tim sing the song “what it cost”? That would be great, and also fitting in these crazy times.
It warms my heart that you are singing the same song now, that I had stuck in my mind this morning!!!! GREAT MINDS THINK ALIKE!! THIS IS MELISSA FROM CITY OF WHITTIER CALIFORNIA. LOVE U SOOOO MUCH ♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️♥️☺️☺️☺️☺️👏👏👏👏👏👏💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙✨✨✨✨✨✨✨
These were so valuable to me trying to learn these songs, just having a clear and relatively still view of his hands. Not to mention how much they helped calm me down.
I needed to hear this, today...Thank you!
Beautiful song, touches the spirit. God is good in His love . And this song reminds me of His beauty
Wow. I cannot believe u chose this song. Its in A Walk to Remember! My son has just been recently diagnosed with T cell Leukemia. I love you Jon. Im so thankful to have your music for encouragement right now.
OMG! This is the perfect song at the perfect timing! Thank you so very much, Jon! Love this song!👍 God bless you & all the guys in SF😇🙌
Love it, love it! Brings memories of my sister that passed away a few months ago, do to Leukemia. No matter what she knew God is good always! Happy to hear your uplifting songs each day! God bless!
I appreciated it now more that the original released, I enjoyed it more and liked it way more now that ever before.
Beautiful song brother, thanks for sharing once again! May God keep you and yours safe in these dark days!
I LOVE THIS SONG!!! ❤❤
Such an epic song! I always get emotional listening to this, love it!
