What about this - He fell so far off the cliff, even though he was too far to catch, God could still reach out and save him. It doesn't matter how far you fall, His hand will always reach out to save us!
God is real bro and He loves you. I don't know what your experience is with God if any. Maybe you've been hurt by the church. I know I was. But God is real and He wants to have a friendship with you.
He was there with you and He was crying. He's never left your side. He wants to heal you from all of these wounds. I used to be a drug addict, alcoholic, and suffered from severe depression. I wanted to kill myself because of all of the hurt in my life. I finally called out to God and asked His help. Since then, everything has changed. I developed a personal relationship with Jesus, I quit drugs and alcohol, my depression is completely gone, and I've never felt more peace or joy in my entire life. I'm tellin' you man, this is for real.
that's unfair to say. God can't do everything that you want him to do. He's not a machine that does that you want on command. I'm atheist and those remarks are a little childish.
I'm really impressed with the clever plot twist in their lyrics. He thought by running he would attain freedom, only to become even more a slave, until he realized that true freedom and peace only comes from being a voluntary slave of the Master. Only the Master can break the chains we put on ourselves.
boyonstilts we aren’t slaves brother , while we are volunteering ourselves in servitude , it’s out of thanks to God , for that grand sacrifice, this world and it’s principalities will hold us down but once we go to that servitude we become free in his name , think bigger , NOT A SLAVE but a servant to the king
I saw these chains locked on my wrists Around my neck no shackles missed I'd tried to shake them off and flee Nowhere to go without a key Awoke my eyes drew the first breath New to the world but not to death This plan devised in secrecy May take my life or set me free No more to work this simple life To toil only met with strife The evening still and passed the sun The night crept in my chance to run I wait for dark! I wait for dark! I wait for dark! No looking back I'm running I'm running out of sight I wait for dark! No looking back I'm running Running into the night I wait for dark! My feet be quick for this racing heart Come morning's light will the chasing start With the fear of pursuit comes a fear of the flight And if I stop they will shoot so I continue to hide In the cover of the night The morning bright all darkness gone I see the distance fade I take to flight my fears withdraw My heart is now betrayed Not a slave to man anymore! Not a slave to... Set me free Set me free Hammer these chains and Set me free! Break these chains Break these chains Unbind my hands and Pardon me! Ran all this way with the hope this pain would Now release Finally cease What is this freedom if I haven't Haven't peace Haven't peace? Serpent you lied and told me to run I haven't found repose for I still am undone This isn't life! This can't be it! I've run so far away yet None of the pieces will fit I couldn't see I should have known This peace abounds at my master's home Now my heart be still or these feet will fall All for the will of the master's call The morning bright all darkness gone And not afraid Shown the true light against the dawn My debt has now been paid I was lost to save For I'm the master's slave For I was lost to save No looking back I'm running Running with all my might No looking back I'm running Running to the true light I saw these chains fall to my feet I stand amazed at this work complete These chains not Yours, they were my own "Now run no more My son, come home"
It's awesome, huh!? I started listening to rock and slowly got into metal over time. I wanted to worship God 24/7 so I looked for a thing called "Christian Metalcore" (A.K.A. Gorship) and got into Flyleaf, Demon Hunter, Impending Doom and still finding artist who share the same faith like Wolves At the Gate. :)
I can't begin to tell you the pit that I was in when I heard this song. I just wanted the devil to finish me off. This band and its lyrics have bought me so close to God over the past few months. I truly believe God used them and their talent to reach me and let me know, I'm not the only one dealing with certain things. Forever in your debt!
The difference between good songs and great songs is the lyrics. This song is amazing and the more I listen, the more I hear the lyrics. First my ears like it, then my soul. Amazing songs and amazing message. Keep the faith Wolves!
@@perfectpanda кто знает, кто знает что за мистика) Вообще, все мое увлечение тяжелой музыкой началось как раз с этой группы, поэтому сейчас при прослушивании их песен прямо слезы накатывают. Обожаю💕
Damn. THIS. This is what's up. I love how the sound quality changes from something like playing in a cabin to this rich, deep and high quality thrashing-distortion and back to the cabin at the end. Each instrument and voices are well-balanced. This song reminds me of temptation and straying from the path of God. The story and song go hand in hand. Wolves at the Gates have so much potential and talent, and I'm dying to buy their merch and albums!
Oh my gosh. Heard this last night on the radio and looked it up and loved the song and the vocals and their sound and everything and i'm just now watching the video and this is freaking epic!! Like this is beyond epic. These guys are so freaking cool!
And Just when I thought wolves at the gate couldn't get any better. These guys never cease to amaze me. I love this music video and can't wait for more.
I don't listen to metal, but I'm hooked to the lyrics and meaning you supply. For the first time in my life, I actually think I'm going to get rid of my oldest and strongest sin. Thank you, can't wait for more songs. May God continue to bless and enlarge your territory, in Jesus name. Amen
I absolutely love this video / song; easily watched it more than 10x. Did anyone else notice when he comes back home at <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="229">3:49</a> that the house is gone? Vanishes! haha
I love you guys so much. I have seen you 6 times and counting. You are my favorite Christian hardcore band and i love the message in this song. keep doing what you're doing :D
i feel exactly the same way. regardless of what others have replied to this comment, never feel the need to censor your enthusiasm, He really is so good.
Beautiful! The story with the video! The message! Jesus is king, you can't hide from him in the sea of men and society. The awesome thing is he always has your back and will be ready to receive you with open arms!
you see, when you go on iTunes, these little boxes come up showing an album of a band, usually placed in a section of other bands of the same genre. These little pictures go to a band if you touch or click them where you can listen to that bands music. Are you understanding where this is going?
