I was deaf all my life but this is the first song I actually heard for the first time thanks to my best friend. So I sang this very song for her on her birthday. She and I both cried a lot of tears. When I first heard this song, I was crying because this song described my entire life. So thank you for an amazing song AJ!
now I'm gonna be one of those old women out there on the internet commenting on every sad or cute thing that happened to somebody who they don't know at all... but Honey! that is incredible! I'm so so happy for you, and I wish you to listen to and sing songs like this 💖💖💖
I just watched Grace Unplugged today (3 times). My wife and I found this movie to be so powerful and spoke many messages. You played the part so perfectly and made the store come alive. Thank You for telling the store and making us think about where we stand in our personal relationship with GOD...
Honestly, its time for honesty My heart is on my sleeve Oh will you hear me out? I've got nothing left to give of me I gave up everything So there is nothing left to lose for me now Would you forgive me somehow? I chased a million things Bright lights and empty dreams Now here I am Right where I thought I wanted to be I'll trade it all right now Leave it all and lay it down To get back to where I belong Lord, all I've ever needed was your love Truth be told, I've made this world my home I let it steal my soul But now I want it back Cause all I need is waiting In your arms, a place To hang my heart, where I am known at last You're the one true thing I have I chased a million things Bright lights and empty dreams Now here I am Right where I thought I wanted to be I'll trade it all right now Leave it all and lay it down To get back to where I belong Lord, all I've ever needed was your love And I know that I was meant to be More than just a melody I know that you had hopes for me I hope you still believe in me I chased a million things Bright lights and empty dreams Now here I am Right where I thought I wanted to be I'll trade it all right now Leave it all and lay it down To get back to where I belong Lord, all I've ever needed was your love Lord, all I've ever needed was your love
“I’ve chased a million things, bright lights and empty dreams. Now here I am right where I thought I wanted to be. I’d trade it all now, leave it all and lay it down to get back to where I belong. Lord, all I’ve ever needed was your love” This lyric said the truth abt us (me too). At the end we don’t need any fancy stuff or glamorous life. We only need His love and His mercy. Hope you guys have a blessed mindset too~
you have no idea how happy it makes me... seeing christian media. It speaks to my heart and my soul; it makes me want to twirl around my room spread wings and fly. Its music like this that stirs my past desire to be able to sing like that. To sing about God? To share that joy? That is amazing and beautiful. :3 sorry, I get poetic when I'm this happy and peaceful.
God wants us to love Him out of our own free will and not by force and this movie portray this beautifully and We know God loves us ,the question is - if we love him back ? Just as He has first loved us by sacrificing himself and taking the punishment for our sins on the cross, so that we can have eternal life, forgiven and renewed in his Love, on the day that we have accepted Him as our saviour. I am inspired by how this movie shows what is going on in most of our lives - often we envy people who have worldly fame, money, good reputation, we even want to associate ourselves with the idea of Happiness that this world claim to have but the grass is not greener on the other side. This world cannot offer true joy and Happiness.

Don't run away from God because you will only be running away from protection,from inner peace, you will be running away from knowing real joy and the unconditional love of our heavenly father. A life without Jesus as our saviour is very dangerous and the human heart without the wisdom of the Holy Spirit will lead us far from knowing true happiness and joy. Depending on our own Understanding and knowledge will in the end lead us to more sadness, emptiness and regret. So, my dear brothers and sisters in Christ we have to change our ways, sin no more, lean not on our own Understanding and we must begin to live a life which honours and glorifies Jesus. Our God is a living God, pure, holy and true and we must repent while we are still young because there is no point in having regrets in old age.
@Marlon Luis Castro Campos I'm just saying this song really says about Catra in season 3 of how she had fallen and it how she got to make things right in season 5.
@Marlon Luis Castro Campos oh sorry, no need to apologize for that. I understand that this is from a Christian movie, but LGBTQ people are starved for content and representation. So its just nice to imagine that it's the character she plays singing it. I think we can both agree that the song is beautiful :)

This world cannot offer true joy and Happiness. When we have lived the exact lifestyle, we will realise that we "Don't really get to experience the joy, the inner peace and the fulfilment" that we have truly yearn for. In the end we feel more pain, fear, bitterness, loneliness, insecurity even with wealth,fame and power.
I relate alot to this song, All the things I thought I would get happiness from did not give me any except when I turned back to God, there's no better word to explain this feeling except for home.
Thank you so much for this movie. I am currently in my last year of college, and am studying music with an emphasis in vocal performance. My career plan is to perform at both the Metropolitan Opera House & on Broadway in New York City. I am also a devout Christian who is aware that New York is just as much of a lost, dying world as Los Angeles in California. Although I love singing and performing, I also need to be careful to not allow the entertainment business to consume me. My intention is to live for the Lord & remain strong in my Faith, no matter where He leads me.
AJ, know this: you are loved no matter what you do. If making music thrills your heart, do it. If something else, do that. But give God the the glory. He will lift you up in due time. I love you😊😊😊
Truly my favorite Christian movie of the past several years. Taking nothing away from movies like Courageous, War Room, etc.... I think this one ranks right up there for its brutal honesty, fantastic music and acting, and wonderful screenplay. I felt the Spirit of God without being beaten over the head with the message.
I live this song and the movie cause I've been on this journey of being a Christian for a couple of years and i feel life giving up this life for the things of the world but watching this movie abdominal looking back from where God had brought me from i can only say that even when i failed him he had never let me go and he never will let me go so right now in gonna fight on cause i know that in not Defeated and once i have God i have everything
David Ashley Keep fighting brother! I have never watched the movie, but this song has helped and continues to help along this Christian journey. It's tough; we live in a dark and cold world, it's not worth losing your soul. Seek the treasures of above. I only converted a year ago and it has been a rough ride and know the feeling.
Thanks Enoch Justin much appreciated i will hold on cause its the only thing that is worth living right now be blessed and I'll be praying for you also
David Ashley Keep on holding on. I'm a christian myself and yes the road can sometimes be tough, but there is nothing to tough that God cant handle. Pray to God about everything and about whatever you feel is trying to block you from Him. Our real treasure comes from God, which never fades away. But earthly things will soon fade away. Put your trust in God. May God bless you, and Jesus loves you.
thank and praise God for allowing you to make this song. it really ministered unto my heart, it was so touching too me. yes it was emotional, i feel for this song. so true in life sometimes we want to do things our way, and mess up and get caught up in what we think instead of going to God first and use our talents and gifts for the glory of God! i love this song.
I have always believed in Jesus, but I have had a rough couple of days and was not sure how much more I could take. This show Grace unplugged came on and it gave me a renewed hope. I have to realize God Is in control and loves me....unconditional
The majesty and love of the Lord pours out AJ like a mountain spring...The beauty of her spirit shines through every pore of her skin and notes flow from her fingers like a cascading waterfall....Amazing is the power of our Lord and Savior JC....
The moral of this song is following your dreams isn't gods way he knows what is right for you and what a wonderful song this is God bless you Aj Michalka
It was October 31st 2019, I grabbed a bottle of Oxycodone and frantically started driving out of state, far away from home, to go and kill myself... this song came on my Spotify and I lost it, I just started crying and eventually I pulled into an old golf course parking lot and just played this over and over again. I've tried to die numerous times since then but I still think about this and the fact that I have been so close to being gone forever so many times. This song is so beautiful and I think it started to play at the right time for the right reasons. Thank you AJ....
And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men by which we must be saved.” Acts 4:12 LSB Have you turned from sin and trusted in Christ and His death on the cross taking the punishment for sinners like you and me? He rose from the dead conquering death, and those who are His are His beloved children and have eternal life. I recommend listening to John MacArthur, Jr. of Grace Community Church and Don Green of Truth Community Church.
She has an amazing voice. This is a great song. A J Michalka plays the prodigal daughter in the movie Grace Unplugged. Great movie for the youth of today who have visions of becoming someone BIG in this world. If you serve the Lord, then you already have someone BIG in your life and He will provide all you'll ever need in this life.
.. True life .thats what we face most of our daily life .some stays some turn away. Some are confused. Some are just stubborn . 😊.. That's life .. But there's no other sweetest life than to live Right n be Like Jesus.
I watched this film a few days ago. I love it so much. It's touched my heart. I can't stop thinking about it. I can say it's the best movie I've ever watched. I love the way AJ portrayed the character of Gracie. She is brilliant. So many morals that are shown. This song has made me so emotional. I can't stop listening to it. Thank you. :)
I left home as soon as I turned 18 and went three hours away to university but nothing felt right so after to years I moved back home and then came across this song when I watched the movie at my grandmas house and It spoke to me. Ive rethought my life since then. It's a year later and I've finally gone back to church after five years. I was baptized a week ago. I'm proud to say that I've finally found the missing piece in my life. God Bless!
@@meowmeow9877 i was surprised either with the fact this is a christian song when i thought this song gives a vibe like chistina perry's thousand years since the concept of the drama is immortality
Wow. My friend shared this with me... and at that moment i was feeling extremely down and this song just spoke to me. It fit my situation perfectly. I can totally feel God's presence in my life... our God is the greatest. ILY God ♡
I love how the 3,8/4 of the comments and viewers are The Shera Fandom and that makes me so happy bc I saw this song and I was like :DONT YOU GET IT I LOVE YOU
I love this song because so many people are striving to be what the world calls perfect and they never just believe that they are enough, God made you who you are and in His eyes, you are a beautiful creation no matter what the world tells you.
I have never watched the movie but from the clips you showed, It matches perfectly with the song! It has a great story line 👍 I can’t stop listening to this song you have a beautiful voice!! And Grace Unplugged is on my watch later list!! I bet it will be great! Great job!!
I really love this song it makes me think about all the people and best friends that I lost over the years I cry every time I hear this song it is one of the most inspiring songs that I heard I am so glad that I watched the movie I just loved it it was amazing and I listen to this song every day every min bc I cant stop listening to it and I hope that everyone else loves it to ur awesome aj
I know.. 💔 It's very heartbreaking for me to see. Her sister was always the more wordly one I believe, and eventually she got AJ to tag along with her on her journey. I truly hope they find their way someday.
Really this song means a lot for me... because once I was lost... but my Father never left.. n I'm here right were I thought to be.. n all I have ever needed was my Father's love..
Omg i came here after watch short drama of superM taeyong 'as we wish'😂 The song was amazing tho, so i decided to listening the original version, so good!😍
