My dad played this once again, after many years.
He said "my girls don't remember this song as talking about a loved one, they remember it as staying up late some nights and dancing in the living room with me and mom." "You can make music into anything you want it to be."
Almost started crying.
I think this song is the most profound song I have ever heard. Such a deep meaning.. "We wandered off like children in the woods" "And the longings came like wolves to devour you" Gives such a deep description of how as Christians we can "wander" away from Christ for what is in this world. We most be so very careful because our "longings" can become like "wolves" that will "devour" us, if we fall away from Christ... "Stay up with me don't fall asleep" When I hear the lyrics "And the longings came like wolves to devour you" I think of one of my family members who allowed that happen to them... We can't let our fleshly desires of this world win over our desire to follow Christ. Matthew 7:13-14
I love this
"Stay up with me, don't fall asleep, Because we only have this moment once in our lives..." Reminds me of Jesus' words in Gethsemane.
"And next time we'll meet under city lights.." If we would look at the lyrics closely, I think the song symbolizes the love relationship of Jesus and His Bride, the Church. It's like He's telling believers to not veer away from Him while waiting for His return to establish His new city, which is heaven, in person. :)
whoah. I really love this interpretation :)
That's lovely. Thank you. God bless.
as Christ said watch pray stay awake with me before he was handed over?
fire
It's a love song so strong Satan can not ruin our bond...im already saved in heaven and judgement is compete and we are at peace.. What a God
As a non believer I can still say I love this band
I can tell you as a believer it's even better
Still one of the most unique voices in the industry. Good to see you guys back.
"Then he said to them, 'My soul is overwhelmed with sorrow to the point of death. Stay here and keep watch with me.' When he rose from prayer and went back to the disciples, he found them asleep, exhausted from sorrow. 'Why are you sleeping?' he asked them. 'Get up and pray so that you will not fall into temptation.'"
A person keeps climbing the oak tree, keeps looking over it for things of this world: of cars and cities. And a person who loves her watches it happen, watches her being pulled toward the darkness. He tries to keep her awake, to keep the would-be sleeper awake, telling her to do what is right with her life, make it all that it was meant to be. Because they’ll eventually meet again under the city lights. They’ll meet with in Heaven, the city, under Jesus, the light. He’s telling her not to fall asleep and love the things of this world because there is something more. So, so much more. And if she falls in love with it, if the darkness devours her, it’ll all be over. Don’t fall asleep, brothers and sisters. Stay awake with me. We’ll meet again when Jesus comes for us.:)
+VioletOwlz I just read this and I am very much encouraged. :) Thank you.
VioletOwlz ooi
How beautiful!
This was my interpretation as well. But I also think the friend committed suicide. I thought that before seeing the video, but now seeing the bath tub, I really think it. Why would he say "next time we'll meet under city lights"? the friend is dead and won't be seen again till heaven.
I love this
That voice, so comforting especially in this current world !!!
Amen to that! Thank the Lord for salvation or I would be in trouble!
Fact
Once upon a time in my life I purposely attempted to overdose on a medication. A friend took me to the hospital to have my stomach pumped. The doctor suggested that my friend stay awake with me and not allow me to fall asleep until the effects of the overdose wore off. "Stay with me don't fall asleep."

Dartanianswordsman I hope you find Jesus. I love you

I was going to do it back in the summer of 93. I kept getting prompted to open my bible to Psalms 34:4. I ignored it until curiosity got the better of me. After I read it I decided not to go through with it. It was supernatural.
Your friend really Loves you.
Que linda canção! O video clip, a mensagem, a interpretação. Bela, tocante . Parabéns ao J of C por essa preciosidade de música!👏👏👏👏👏
Ironic how I can fall asleep to this music. lol. That's a compliment. And Rhian is beautiful.
When I here this song I think about my father ....he and my mom were unwed and super young but they had me.....and this song reminds me of that.....they faught to stay together but it wasn't allowed, family could not accept that my mom was a dark Hispanic women....they had me and my dad tried to visit and be with me, he tried to confront his family but he was young and understand, but that doesn't mean it doesn't hurt .....so I always hope that one day we could just be together just like it was meant to be ......one day
2 of my favorites: Jars of Clay (for music) and Rhian Ramos (for acting)
i tweeted Jars of Clay a few months ago, i asked them to visit the Philippines again after so many years...then they tweeted back:
JARS OF CLAY @jarsofclay 27 Apr
@Ella_Xaris JUST played in Manila a few weeks ago!
i was like...tsk..tsk..tsk..where was i? why didn't i know bout this? same reaction with Jeremy Camp's concert here.. :( great thing i didn't miss Switchfoot's concert!
That's so sad! When they came in my city (Belo Horizonte - Brazil) many people didn't find out about the concert and missed it... Happily, I was informed through friends on Facebook and went there, it was amazing!
God can lift up eny person whom is on depression. Depression is real, and mostly of us had experienced it some time. We can feel empathy toward people in depression, and tell them , absolutely God loves them and He can lift them up! i know,because that song was kind of my anthem 3 yrs ago. and even during a period of time last year, but i can tell you, God always will be watching over us, and we, can help and support others without judging, so we can lead them to close to God
I was on their live recording concert here in the Philippines and Rhian Ramos was also there. She is very pretty and seems very nice. Wasn't able to talk to her but she smile all the time.
Does God love me or WHAT!! First he takes my favorite band of all time, then connects them to my country, to produce a video in collaboration with a local actress. Who would have ever thought!!
I am a Christian FILIPINO, I love Hillsongs Planetshakers and Jars Of Clay ,, I Good Job Ms Rhian Ramos,, I hope you will also Worship Jesus...
Such maturity and scope in songwriting and production from a band that made a demo disc to submit to CCM Magazine and won the new band showcase. I find it has gotten better as they have gotten older at least physically
It is such a beautiful song, I just close my eyes and let the music to take me to another world, another place.
I really love this band and i'm so happy that Rhian was on their video and it was directed by Luis Daniel Tabuena. I got a chance to see them in person when they visited here in my city. Been a fan of the band since mid 90's, i think its my one of the first albums when I was young that i bought, their self titled album which include "Flood" then their follow up album.
Another fantastic album from Jars of Clay. Amazing song.
What makes Pinoy proud in this video is RHIAN RAMOS.
As a Pinoy, it's really an achievement to see a Pinoy like us in an international video.
Period.
Great song. They keep pounding out the quality albums. Almost every song is a gem on them.
This song pretty much came when I was closing a large chapter of my life.
I had been in love with a friend of mine, she was christian but had a fight with God.
I contacted her after she ended a relationship that was leading to marriage, and tried to solve her problems.
I knew that a relationship after a big event like hers was going to fail but I asked her and dated.
Eventually she mended things with God. But the relationship began to crumble.
I wish I knew the song by then. The paragraph after the chorus ftis so perfect. I really tried but couldn't keep her, I let her go.
Closed up that chapter. I hope we see each other again on the city lights of heaven.
hehe all of you should stop arguing.. this music video is not created to have you guys comment like this and that about what should each of us should comment, we should be enjoying the music all together and respect the opinions of one another.. EITHER WAY IM STILL PROUD TO BE A FILIPINO
There's no wrong of being proud to be a Filipino. And we should be PROUD TO BE A FILIPINO. We should love our heritage and be proud of it.
I'm an agnostic atheist, have been for about 3 years, but I still love Jars of Clay. Such beautiful music.
There is definitely a message buried in this song if you look deeper into the lyrics. Christian musicians can help deliver positiveness without mentioning God. “It’s about a relationship that can’t last and asks if we can accept the grace of a single moment,” Odmark (Jars of Clay's rhythm guitarist) explains. “It’s a narrative of impermanence and sums up the themes of the record. Since nothing lasts forever, is there a way to live in the present and find peace with the knowledge of limitation?”
Try replaying the video over and over again. Sometimes, God's Word is not explicitly expressed in the song, but you will get it as you play it.
Rhian Ramos brought me here.:)
i hope u didn't brought along mo twister???..lmao!!!!
Top! Amazing poetry for us, "the Bride" . God bless you brothers!
they're back!!!! woohoo! always can't wait between j.o.c albums
I love jars of clay
ganda talaga ni rhian,sana nag audition sya sa 50 shades of grey as anastasia steel bagay sa kanya...
Love it, well done lads, Super glad that it wasn't the last ever song that Jars recorded. Happy that Dan is back up and at 'em.
Proud to be pinoy,,,laging sinasabi ng mga Pilipino sa pinaghihirapan ng iba ,,,yan tayo e
Being proud of a music video done by pinoys is not blind nationalism. Blind nationalism is when you tolerate wrong doings of fellow pinoys and be proud of it.
Proud To Be Pinoy! Pinoy Pride si Rhian! Kaya pala wala siyang masyadong project sa GMA ito pala dahilan. Good Luck Rhian. :)
Rhian ramos!! Philippines proud of you!! God bless jars of clay!!!
i play this for my lost best friend we would lay on the docks of the lake and stare at the stars for until the sun came up again just sit there barely talk sometimes play music or at night we would go down and create our own music or some nights we would just laugh for hours and hours on end. i miss you and the amazing summers and adventures we had

Even when calamity, and darkness falls and compels us to part from each other, there will come a time when our paths will cross again no matter what; beyond all these impossibilities from hatred, poverty, death and disease. Thank God for poets and artists who stir our faith and help keep alive our hope with their music
Jars of clay love this band!!!!!
So beautiful! Thank you for raising money towards relief efforts in the Philippines
i love this band since 1998! :)

I grew up as a born again Christian and been loving your songs.Glad that I saw Rhian Ramos in your MV.Shes a beautiful Filipina like me 🤗
Aw! this make me cry...
OMG..Jars of Clay a Band that I love plus Rhian Ramos (I'm a big fan of her).... a dream come true!...
So beautiful praise God 🙏
2022. discovered this song because of Rhian Ramos. no apologies.
Could you just stop fighting about being proud of this and that and just listen to the song, watch the video and know that they cast a Filipina... And yes by looks the epitome of the beauty that we have here.
Jars of Clay pa man din.
Who is still watching this in 2018!!!! Rhian Ramos brought me here.
This is actually what the topic should be.
hey guys please no fighting.... just appreciate how beautiful the video is even the lyrics of the song... please let's just enjoy the music...
Miss them very much
Did they break up?
I'm Filipino at matagal ko ng kilala ang Jars Of Clay. My favorite song of theirs is "Flood". This Rhian Ramos cameo on this video is not really a big deal to me. It's just a music video. Anyone can appear on a music video. Kahit 'yung magba-balot o 'yung magta-taho sa kanto puwedeng kunin. My point is gasgas na masyado 'tong "I'm proud to be ________". Maging proud kayo doon sa mga OFWs natin; ang mga tunay na modern-day heroes.
I am obsessed with this song.
I love Christian misic
I don't have to know George Carlin. All I know is Luis Daniel Tabuena did a fine job directing the video and I am proud of it. I don't need to contain myself in expressing how proud I am of being a Filipino through other people's achievement. If you are tired of it then go find another citizenship or nationality your skin can be comfortable with.
yes.... in the garden, a life among the trees....dissatisfaction while I slept......Babel was visible from the treetops......cannot you stay awake one hour with me??.....no???..... free will and the shadow descended and the wolves of satan prowled.....descend into the death of sin, into the flood..... Have you seen my beloved? I searched the city streets and asked the night watchmen..... I could not find my bridegroom......up from the water of the red sea, the flood, the Jordan, up from the darkness and disillusion of sin my bride.....into the sacramental union....stay with me, hone is calling my prodigal self......arise.....walk the lit streets of the heavenly Jerusalem.....my beloved!......surrender to the sacraments and truth....my bride. the bridegroom is coming, stay awake......love is stronger than death, the sacramental blood and water flowing from Christ's pierced side.........protect and defend the beloved's life, from conception til natural death.....awake! your beloved is nearer than you think.....life is beautiful-- we still glimpse the Garden and Heaven....please stay with Me..........Genesis, Song of Songs, Tobit, the Gospels of Matthew and John & Revelation.......I LOVE being Catholic (just like the apostles, and St. John of the Cross ....love solved everything....Pope John Paul 2......Come Home -- stay with the Church Jesus founded with Peter, His Rock, against which death and hell will not prevail......wow, beautiful
walang basagan ng trip. eh ano kung proud talaga sila. wala ka na don. internet load nila yan. it's people like you who make things a lot more complicated in this world.
the girl in this video is Rhian Ramos a Filipina actress
She's beautiful
im agnostic and almost close to atheist , but i still love this band.. a fan since high school
Same. I dislike strict religious people etc but I have my own interpretation of this song. Which involves no Jesus quotes etc haha
vyedio boy it’s fours years since you posted this and I’m hoping you began to find God. He loves you immeasurably and if you seek you will find. Peace unto you.
The woman has a beauty of a princess
gising..gising.. bride of Christ don't fall asleep! Spread the love!
I love this song and video, but dammit it hurts so much.

May the Lord abundantly bless your hearts! Keep spreading the love of Christ :)
One of may all time fave bands... Good thing they have new songs.. Nice!!!
Like the concept.. It's like part 2 of FLOOD video ;) Jars of CLAY fan here since 1996
They're not preachers, they're musicians. They can sing about anything they want.
WOW, what a gorgeous music video, so touching. Love it, be blessed1
For a community of people that has been taken for granted, bypassed, cheated, deceived, pushed down, pushed aside, ridiculed, raped for as long in history as it has been. Filipinos should always be proud of other Filipinos success. Don't take it away from us!
Wonderful song - amazingly irrelevant visuals.
Yeah first time I saw the video, I was like What????
Love this track. One of my faves on Inland :)
Obviously this is an old video but NO ONE is gonna mention how this the exact shot / framing of the bath tub scene in Inception!?!??
I did notice that. :)
yeah lets love one another as God command us and dont look to sin.
Love this song. I LOVE your voice Dan. :) Charlie is beautiful on piano. Nice video.
I love this band since I first heard their song entitled "Tea and Sympathy". Continue to bless everyone with your songs.:)
So I held you but the cold was from inside
And I knew I couldn't keep you if I tried
But I watched as the distance spread, as the shadows grew
And the longings came like wolves to devour you
que voz tan angelical, me encanta, no había escuchado algo tan bueno con este grupo desde hace mucho
favorite band
