Verse 1: Heaven and the earth will pass away But your words all remain And my hands are growing old And weary with pain Still I fold them to pray To the one unchanged Yesterday and today Oh Yahweh I will try to stay awake Take my last breath of faith As I wait for you to come Take me beyond This land undone Over the flood By your word, spirit, and blood

[@shawnnalofland4483]

The best Christian music I’ve heard in a long time.

[@the-wisest-emu]

I love Josh Garrels because you can tell he truly feels his music and absolutely believes in what he's singing.

[@leemorgan8606]

Verse 2: It was prophesied long ago Every word set in stone Not one will pass away Or walk alone All that I own does not compare To the love that we share Please remember me When the hour arrives And you must decide If you´ll wait for me to come Take you beyond This land undone, Over the flood By my word, spirit, and blood

[@Bill_IV]

That instrument is called a "Charango" and it's used in Andean music a lot.

[@frankfrank320]

Been searching & listeing for something to catch my attention for years I'm 65 I had given up, tonight I saw Josh & the mason jar music they did just that caught my attention...

[@Arty11]

Frank Frank for two days now I’ve been playing his music what a genius

[@Moderationplease]

Im not religious in anyway what so ever but I love hearing about others peoples beliefs and I am in no way, shape, or form to judge some one upon what moves them mentally and spiritually. This song has moved me and I love it.

[@GiddyGiddyGo]

Praise the Lord for this Christ centerd song..amazing!!!

[@LoverofStories]

Wow. When I listen to and see him, I am touched by his love for God. I need to look for more of his music.

[@smallvoice7]

i jus listen and i cry to God for mercy, i jus want people to spend eternity with Jesus, none of us deserve it but He is gracious to pardon all sin...........im som thankful unbelievers listen and they love it, i pray the Holy Spirit grabs them..............broken i have no shame, Jesus is alive

[@crazydave911]

Hauntingly beautiful

[@OnlyHopeisChrist]

+crazydave911 well said

[@thedudetoo1964]

Agreed. Amazing.

[@MelancholyJelly]

If I'm listen to this, I'm do it like Josh: close the eyes and feel.

[@elainelorimer818]

I absolutely 💯 LOVE Josh's songs and music! I only recently discovered him (led to his video Watchman by Holy Spirit actually!) and can't listen enough! ALL of the songs I've heard are so amazing! Thank you Holy Spirit! Thank you for recording this video MasonJarVideo!

[@haydenwilliams1114]

This should have 2 billion views.

[@quinoacowboy]

Flippin' amazing. God grants us such wonderful gifts.

[@LightWthoutTheStatic]

It does. The song could always be called beautiful, but you can definitely get more from this when you really know who Garrels is talking about.

[@jamieingels1190]

Who's he talking about?

[@jonathanm5946]

Jamie Ingels ..He is speaking of Jesus. God’s one and only Son. Who was prophesied of in the Old Testament of the Bible. And revealed to the world years later in the New Testament. The Words of God in the Bible will always remain, even when Jesus returns for His people and this world passes away. Jesus is the one way to God. He shed His blood and rose again from the dead, so all may be forgiven and cleansed of their sin through faith in His finished work alone. No works will ever match the holiness of God or wash away my sin. That’s why God sent Jesus to take our place and pay our price. It’s a free gift. This is love. This is the Gospel. The good news that we can all be God’s children through His grace by faith in Christ, and that we can be changed to follow Jesus, not by our goodness, but by His Spirit in us. God has called everyone, everywhere to repent and believe on the One He sent: Jesus.. Ephesians 2:8-10 and John 3:16 and Romans 10:9-13.

[@manchestermission909]

@@jamieingels1190 The lord of hosts and king of glory.. Jesus Christ of Nazareth, son of God and son of man.. the I Am that I AM, God in the flesh, saviour of mankind, love of loves and the highest power in the heavens... Our eternal hope and very ready help in times of trouble.. the King, the lion of Judah, the lamb who takes away the sins of the world, the one who was wounded for all our iniquities and pain the price for them that we could enter heaven 😌 🔥🙌

[@manchestermission909]

Paid the price I meant

[@prinzalocelja4239]

beautiful song that echoes from earth to eternity! Thank you Lord and Savior

[@manchestermission909]

Literally my favourite song ever!

[@FirstbornAthletics]

What an amazing piece of art and more importantly praise for God.

[@thinkwhatsyourlife5908]

This is how I found Josh garrels in .. 2014 I think. I have listened to and loved his music since. Thanks God for letting me find him

[@amycourtney-messenger1642]

All these musicians are so relaxing and interesting to listen to and watch.

[@Julight]

Tears of joy ! you have open my heart even wider ! thank you Josh Garrels !!!

[@Bildungsrebell]

Still one of the greatest pieces of music: It's all the best from and for the heart, soul, mind and intellect. Every single musican belongs exactely where they are, every second is full of live, sorrow, deepness and hope. Thank you so much, this piece changed my life since 11 years

[@EmbeddedJournalist]

Josh's faith and inspiration is to praise and worship God through the gifts he has been given. The fact that believers and non-believers can appreciate the talent and joy of the beauty in his music is God's purpose and will to reach many souls with Josh's music for Him.

[@deonbrugmann7547]

Just seen Josh in Jax FL! Best musican I have ever seen live! You are truly special.

[@thecrafterman541]

Sweet, sad, yet unsettling and a touch of fairy like chaos. It is like a dream, a good one.

[@TheBreeNichols]

2:38 makes me fry everytime just from his beautiful voice! I would love to sing with him one day!!!

[@sigreddasparks16]

I love Jason garrels' voice. It was absolutely beautiful.

[@JakeDSidwell]

I love how he nods at the end as if the most amazing thing in the world DIDN'T just happen. So humble it hurts.

[@sassysanders3997]

Josh, What a God given voice and musical talent. God bless you and your family. Keep them coming and keep the faith!

[@charljoubert6993]

This still gives me goosebumps every single time I listen to it.

[@libertine523]

I just keep coming back to it every other day. Such an amazing song and having Mason Jar working with it just makes it that much better. Well done all!

[@promisqus22]

I've heard this sing at least 100 times i just can't stop listening to it, AMAZING song. :)

[@mandalynnfry]

I want to "like" this song a thousand time! So awesome there are no words!

[@rockysjewel]

WOW. Josh I can see that you are so in the spirit while singing this and you really are so annointed. Glad my friend shared this video with me. Keep bringing this interesting sound & style from God to share with us!

[@AngieWright]

Beautiful. Presentation. Words. Sound. Thank you for blessing my morning!

[@wyleejensen3646]

I really enjoy this music especially knowing music and where it came from and how it has been subverted and mainly sold out!

[@emeryhersh8702]

wow ! just breath taking !

[@ishmiellounsbury]

[@heshkinah2677]

Been listening to this for months now. 💗 Truly amazing performance on all aspects

[@ben89422]

Just saw you guys tonight in SD, amazing show, thanks so much for doing what you do.

[@elkefontillo1379]

that is just crazy beautiful!

[@wanderererererer84]

This music is hypnotizing! I have shared this with so many friends, "religious" and "non-religious". I myself am a “non-believer”. But no matter what belief you have, I understand and appreciate his message of love and acceptance. That is universal, no matter what religion or creed. And everyone I show this to feels the same way. It’s so clear that he sings from a place of purity and such love.

[@samuviti5]

This is the greatest. A great song by a great songwriter and complete with a great arrangement and recording!

[@TheExpressionaire]

Now THIS is music. Simply, simply AMAZING.

[@BeyondtheEndMetal]

[@10DaysIntl]

Great version of a great song--thanks Josh and Mason Jar for this amazing production

[@leli260577]

Awesome..we could capture every single note!!!! give the very best for our Lord!!!

[@kickinatthedarkness]

Saw Mason Jar musicians and Josh Garrels at the Atheneum theater last night in Chicago last night. The film left me repeating, oh man, oh man. The concert following put flesh to the spirit of the film. Bravo.

[@Knewms]

[@NotStuckJustResting]

[@melizareyes11]

Oh my goodness... goosebumps! to the max!

[@KaraDep87]

I absolutely love this! It's so beautiful!

[@ezzyloofreebush]

There are people out there that you would be a fool not to notice how divinely originated their talents really are. Inspired.

[@bape890]

I think it's great that everyone can enjoy this, I mean obviously we're all human and have the ability to appreciate good music. But at the same time by being a believer you can also have the added benefit of understanding where his inspiration for this song is from, and also sharing in the deep connections we have with God. I hope that this sparks a little curiosity in all the nonbelievers that listen.

[@MrJoel0007]

casual hand bells :D love it

[@ivantheterrableone]

this sends shivers down my spine. the best music is the music inspired by God Almighty.. eclectic, yet original and deep.

What an outstanding and moving recording! I rarely heard such an impressing recording. Of course singing is great, but it is all of you that made me cry. Words remain --- and good music.

[@EyalAmirMusic]

I really have a problem with this video having only 25,000 views and not 25 million. This is so powerful.

[@deonbrugmann7547]

Amazing!

[@bertrandmarcoux]

[Verse 1] Heaven and the earth will pass away But your words all remain And my hands are growing old And weary with pain Still I fold them to pray [Verse 2] To the one unchanged Yesterday and today Oh YHWH I will try to stay awake Take my last breath of faith As I wait for you to come [Chorus] Take me beyond This land undone Over the flood By your word, spirit, and blood [Verse 3] It was prophesied long ago Every word set in stone Not one will fall away Or walk alone All that I own [Verse 4] Does not compare To the love that we share Please remember me When the hour arrives And you must decide If you’ll wait for me to come [Chorus] Take you beyond This land undone Over the flood By my word, spirit, and blood

[@midevildle]

Amazing is a word that gets bandied around a lot, so much so that it's lost much of it's meaning. This right here, this is really truly amazing. An experience, an escape from the dregs of life for 5 minutes.

[@724ephil]

Beautiful!

[@VictorianCouch]

Beautiful. True.
