    whoever didn't like this song they need to listen to it again and if they don't get the message they just don't care

    Just remember that you are not alone in sin. The Bible said for ALL have fallen short of the glory of God. So you are not alone and no one sin is bigger than the other. In order to become a Christian you by no means have to be perfect. The Holy Spirit is capable of healing any hurt and solving any problem all you have to do is ask and believe. Jesus was tortured & mangled for us sinners! I am sorry your friends judge you so and I will be praying for clarity and truth. Love a friend.

    The song City on the hill came on when I was 7 years old, I was in a terrible place at the time, but the second the song came on, I turned my life to Jesus. I give a special thanks to Casting Crowns

    This is the 1st time I have heard this song. I really love it. God created us to take care of His world and each other----how far we have fallen. We each need each other to complete what God has created. The Holy Spirit gives each believer certain gifts and those gifts when used fit into a beautiful picture that God intended it to be. But, we live in a fallen world and nothing will be as it should be until Christ returns. We as Christ followers need to truly pray for the lost.

    im not going to argue with u. thannk u so much for being intelligent enough to not have a huge argument and insult ppl without reason like so many others.
    I know u may not believe it works but ill be praying for you to find Jesus and to accept Him. thank u again for being gracious and mature

    Very few songs have TORCHED my heart, and this is one stands out. It corrects, instructs, helps and directs and build up all at once, with Love at its core! Only God's Spirit could interpret this song to each individual as He wills. Much Love!!!

  • @gokuhudson7279
    @gokuhudson7279 Před 8 lety +6

    We are all sinners,we can repent by asking god for forgiveness for our sins and stop all the bad and sinful things that we use to do.Jesus diddnt just die for Christians,he died for everyone so everyone would be able to come to him.I is your choice.

    This song has its own Christian theme and context, but the lyrics here are very true and transferable for the problems american society is facing today! We really to need to come together and be that city on a hill again america.

    beautiful song, sad how the world has become so far apart from God, but He continues to call the lost home. praise The Lord!

  • @sarahrat459
    @sarahrat459 Před 12 lety

    This song shows that we r all connected like a piece of paper if u tear that paper up it is still that same paper. God does not want us to judge because really your judging yourself. God is the only judge.

    I absolutely love this song - and this video. It was the first Christian video I ever watched, and it changed my life. This video is so well done, and it introduced me to worship through music. Now, Casting Crowns is my all-time FAVORITE band, and I can't wait to see them in person (whenever that may be). I'm also going to the 2013 WinterJam. Can't wait!

    It is the rhythm of the dancers
    That gives the poets life
    It is the spirit of the poets
    That gives the soldiers strength to fight
    It is the fire of the young ones
    It is the wisdom of the old
    It is the story of the poor man
    That's needing to be told

    I stumbled upon this song, and I really think it has a good universal message. Every little thing has meaning, everything interconnects. While I'm not religious, I still muchly enjoy the message put into it. Very pretty song, wish I knew of more like it. Music like this makes me have faith in my fellow man, that maybe we all come together united one day, no matter creed, profession, or anything that may divide us.

    "Not like the brazen giant of Greek fame,
    With conquering limbs astride from land to land;
    Here at our sea-washed, sunset gates shall stand
    A mighty woman with a torch, whose flame
    Is the imprisoned lightning, and her name
    Mother of Exiles. From her beacon-hand
    Glows world-wide welcome; her mild eyes command
    The air-bridged harbor that twin cities frame.
    "Keep, ancient lands, your storied pomp!" cries she
    With silent lips. "Give me your tired, your poor,
    Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,
    The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.
    Send these, the homeless, tempest-tost to me,
    I lift my lamp beside the golden door!"
    -The New Colossus (poem), Emma Lazarus, engraved on a bronze plaque and mounted inside the Statue of Liberty's pedestal's lower level.
