Sanctus Real - Lead Me (Official Video)

[@thomasturner3549]

I led my wife in 99 when she had brain surgery. Now in 2018 she is leading me with my blood cancer diagnosis. Been together since I was 18, and we have raised all 3 children together. Update, December 30, 2020. Still here.

[@misstheonlyme13]

Thomas Turner that’s wonderful. God bless your family.

[@ucdante]

Praying for both and your wife. God placed you together for His purposes.

After "meeting" the lead singer at a "weekend to remember" conference for marriage, he shared the back story for this song. They had been on the road for years touring, then had kids. His wife was exhausted and stayed home with kids while he was out on tours. She eventually hit a breaking point and they sat down at a table to discuss. He said his wedding picture of his glowing wife was right next to them, while she was breaking down in front of him. Thus the reference to pictures in the song and having a home yet so alone. He mentioned how it was such a contrast of a beaming new wife to a broken empty and lonely mother. Providing for a family is not the only purpose in life as a man. We are to be present and an active force to guide, protect, influence, encourage our family and pursue our wives as we did before marriage. To be intentional in how we serve each other in marriage despite our shortcomings. Marriage is not a 50/50 arrangement, it's 100/0. Give it your all and expect nothing in return, and you will receive a relationship that thrives in love and understanding.

Good job on analyzing knowing the backcstory helps i thought bit different but that so nice

[@michaelrysko]

I love how this song ends in a prayer for God's help. We cannot properly lead our families without a humble heart seeking God's will.

[@lindathetford3776]

Very well said he will show you how to be a good person

[@realmommyknt]

There was no prayer at the end of this song or video?? Is there one in the original video or something?

[@michaelrysko]

@@realmommyknt The prayer was part of the song. Listen again at 2:45. "Oh Father show me the way..."

[@realmommyknt]

@@michaelrysko ohh okay. I thought you were referring to like an actual spoken prayer apart from the song and not a prayer in the song. Thank you for clarifying and I'm going to go back and listen.

[@realmommyknt]

But you are 100000% right on that we cannot properly lead our families without a humble heart seeking God's will ❤️🙏❤️

[@warriorpoet80]

This video brought me to tears. My daughter has inspired me to renew my walk with Jesus, and I’ve realized just how much of a crap father and husband I’ve been. I’m going to be better for them. Even if I only live for one more day.

[@jpettigrew011]

I have screwed up a good marriage with a wonderful woman by trying to do everything by myself. And now I have let God into my life and into our marriage I feel as if it can be saved. To all the men out here, do not think you can handle married life without putting God first. The best advice is HANDLE WITH CARE and always get instructions.

[@drassaintstringfield5572]

As a young man I can't wait for the Lord to lead me as a husband and father.

[@izzyaustin1257]

[@dmath3223]

Amennn! As a 19 year old I desperately need God's grace to be the best person I can be, ultimately for God, but for her too whenever that time comes! And to be faithful to her not just with my actions now but in my heart as well!

[@georger.goodman662]

Be strong and courageous. Be strong and courageous. Keep your eyes fixed on the Lord, and be strong and courageous. 67 years, 37 married to same one once...I'm still learning to keep my eyes fixed on the Lord and to be strong and courageous.

[@CoIdestGaming]

For all the single Christians out there..Stop searching for that special person in your life, don't end up searching for love in all the wrong places because you might begin to get jealous with other people's relationships. Just trust God that He will bring that special person your way. Maybe you are still single because God still wants to work out some Kinks in your heart that you can't even see that might ruin a relationship if you try to get into one too quickly. Or maybe God is still molding you and shaping you into that perfect husband or wife first for your special someone so you will be prepared first. Just trust God and know that He will take care of you! Know that you are loved by Him and He will bring someone into your life who will also give you and show you Gods love through that man or women. Stop searching, you might be searching out of your own desires. Be patient, there's nothing greater than being in Gods perfect will.

[@NotMister]

you are very wise

[@isaivalencia5913]

You have no idea how much I needed this thank you so much God bless

[@CoIdestGaming]

+isai valencia no worries brother! God bless you! God wants everyone to have an intimate relationship with Him first. He wants us to be fully satisfied with Him first in every area of our lives before we can be happy with someone else. But God is working behind the scenes in your future partners life as well, molding them and shaping them also so God can bring you two together into a Christ centered relationship. God will bless you with a family because He has our best interests at heart and loves us. Stay faithful and focused and fully into God just like your partner is somewhere out there and everything will just fall into place like God planed!

[@CoIdestGaming]

+Spike Johnson and why do you say that?

[@isaivalencia5913]

Thank you so much bro it means a lot those words it something I really needed to hear once again it's true and I know God is working I can feel it thank you so much for the words of encouragement God bless you always :)

[@javzmaaenkhbaatar5711]

how amazing ❤❤🎶🎶🙌🙌 glory to God

[@elizabethmcsparran852]

This song resonates with me so powerfully....I prayed for my husband to lead me and our family in likeness for 12 years. My husband just met the Lord and going through radical transformation. God is good and faithful all the time. In 12 years I often felt like giving up and so discouraged at times....probably doubted God....but in His perfect time He made it happen....thank you for this song...I am immensely blessed. May the Lord continue to use this band for His glory!!!

[@DarkShark147]

Derek Skluzacek its never too late man because God is with us, it will work out, you just have to believe God Bless you all! :)

[@Lovedbychrist1]

Derek Skluzacek Let Christ reign in Your life, read your bible and learn to be who God is calling You to be. I will pray for you. You might want to watch the movie Fireproof... We are here for his glory, and whatever happens know that God is with you even when things get tough. He uses all things to his glory, the good and bad even if they don't seem to "work out" in this life. God bless.

[@MIsteelie]

Derek Skluzacek My husband and I sound like we are going through something similar to you and your wife. Right now my husband is blaming me for everything and making his anger my fault among other things he is doing. I know that it is not all my fault, but it still hurts none the less. This is the hardest thing as a wife of 21 years I have been through, but if it's any consolation I am still madly in love with my husband and see past what he is doing. I see the hurt he is going through and praying every day for the healing of him and our marriage. There are some days when I want to quit because I don't deserve what I am getting and am feel I am worth more. However I know deep inside what a good man my husband is and I am giving it to God to heal us and standing strong for the vows I made to him and for the love I believe in. That being said there is always hope. Keep the faith. I am sure if your wife seen the great man in you when she married you she still knows your still in there. Pray and give it to God and watch the miracles happen.

[@DarkShark147]

Pam Green hes not just gonna heal he's gonna do a resurrection :)

[@jefferypoage9930]

May God lead you with strong hands … and help you continue to fight in the strength of the Lord. Blessings to you & your family! In Jesus Name 🙏🏾

[@SharonFalvey]

Last night I saw these wonderful men sing this song. This song put to words exactly what my heart was pleading for; it came out a couple of years after my 21 year marriage crumbled. 16 years later and another failed marriage, I still hope and pray that somehow this song would capture their hearts and they would bend their knee to God. I now wear the wedding ring around my neck and have vowed to remain single, but pray for the lost marriage of 21 years. I still pray that he would allow himself to be lead by God because I know it's in there. The most important thing to me now is that he would be set free from the bondage of this world and serve God. The ring around my neck reminds me to constantly pray for him and somehow, someday I think this song will show him the way. Thank you so much for the concert in Mt. Juliet last night to benefit Mt. Juliet Christian Academy! My grandaughter was one of the kids on stage with you and it touched my heart deeply. I watched your little four year old daughter dancing freely in the isle beside my daughter-in-law and I and delighted in her freedom, your wife sat in the row in front of us and simply glows. You are all a light unto the world. Blessings for safe travels and a life that continues to be lead by the Lord.

[@AshleySparkler]

I'm sitting here holding a very sick baby, while my autistic toddler stims like mad, and my six year old hobbles through the house, after a trip to the ER last night for a nasty cut on her foot. I'm exhausted, depleted, overwhelmed and empty. This song came to me and as I sit here listening, my heart is so full and my eyes are brimming with tears. I am so blessed with the reminder that I can not only cry out to Jesus and ask Him to fill my cup, but that the Lord has blessed me with a husband whom I can lean on. A man who exemplifies everything in this song. He is strong when I can't be, and he leads our family in faith. That is a precious gift and I pray I never take this wonderful man for granted.

[@justinp3931]

I wanted to take a moment and say this is by far my favorite Christian song as a father and a husband of all time. Any time I fell down as a father, a husband or a man of God I listen to this. I know I will never meet you but I would love to see you in concert sometime but if not just seeing you on here is close.

[@rickyyang6647]

My beautiful wife at the time used to play this song for me in the past all the time but i was battling with drugs, addiction, alcohol and personal problem that clouded my mind and now we are divorced. This song just came up randomly on my playlist and i cannot hold back my tears as i now understand the lyrics and why she was playing this song. Become a kingdom man and center your life and marriage around Christ because that is the only way and when your lost as a husband or father he will provide you with the answer.

[@heatherbenefield5787]

You're closer to God, he's always been closer than you know ❤. No matter what is happening now even I know I see God in you. You owned your shame/ pain as a Godly man you accepted the consequences,shame & the error of your ways... divorce being the price you paid.😢 But to share your testimony is to teach others and is proof God is alive and in you!.. Hope for for everyone 🙏

[@mattelliott20]

This wonderful Godly Christian girl I dated for 2 years just broke up with me cuz she said I wasn't leading her... so this song hits home and God is doing a amazing work in me and showing what it looks like and how to lead a girlfriend! She told me she loves me but she can't date someone that she can't see herself marrying... God has slapped me in the face and is opening my eyes to what I need to do he's put a action in me! :) I hope I get a second chance with this wonderful woman of God. I need to totally focus on God and ask him to lead me in how to lead my future girlfriend in the future whether it is this woman Im madly love or someone else.

[@dalmascansteel1572]

Same here, I get scarred to death when she tells me that I'm not reassuring her enough and don't know enough about my future yet for her to feel like I'm stable. I feel like I'm trying to lead her but I'm doing it in my own way, which she I guess doesn't connect with. I love this girl so much and she's the only one I see myself with, so I'm just going to pray about it and search for a better understanding so that she can confide in me and can truly see me as the head of our future house.

[@FrankensteinGamers]

+Dalmascan Steel Let God speak to you and teach you how He wants you to lead her. He won't ever fail you and his wisdom/understanding is far above anything that we could ever have. Trust in him to teach you the ways to speak with the girl you love and connect with her the way that He has in place for you. The Father will always help you to know the right way to follow so that you can better lead those you love and others around you. Don't lose faith or hope. Keep your faith strong in the Lord Jesus Christ and the Father. Don't put anything, in regards to him, off until the last second. Put all of your effort into following him and his plan for you. He will teach you where to go from there. May the Father and Lord Jesus Christ bless you and yours my friend. (:

[@lindseyhunter5209]

The separation seems awful,but it truly is God wanting to mold you into the man you need to be. Never ever stop praying, if you are in love with this woman, pray for her,but give her space and continue to grow spiritually that's all I wanted my ex to do. Was grow spirituality. We were both on two different pages. It got so bad that he would threaten to take our daughter away from me. Every time i wanted to leave . I do love him,my heart is....completely focused on taking care of myself and my daughter. I wanna say I'm heartbroken but I'm not,I still love him,I know he wanted to be a good Man. I pray for him every single day that God would have mercy on him and I both,because I didn't really know the word of God while I was with him. I was hateful and unforgiving because of his porn addiction. The issues grow much darker I will not get into detail. I don't think him and I will ever get back together, tho I still feel married at heart with him. For now,I will! Be patient this time,because my baby needs a a healthy loving home. I pray God wakes him up... He isn't setting up visitation with his daughter its been 3 months... I feel like any other person would be worried but I don't have time to worry! I MUST PRAY 1 THES. PRAY WITHOUT CEASING. not to be back together, though the lord knows that would be something I'd maybe want later down the road,but for the Lord to change his heart,so that he can be at least a loving father. I do however cry,but I have the comfort of the holy spirit. I have no idea what Im gonna do with me and my daughter,I'm just going day by day. Literally. But I know God will take care of us. Because all through our relationship I wanted so badly for God to show us both what love truly is. He certainly showed me what love isn't. But then again, I never forgave him. And love...is forgiveness. So really we both didn't truly love each other. I think that's what saddens me the most...yet like I said,I still feel married. Like he's in the military working and in a year he will be back,and actually be a man. I know in my heart that's not the case. But I fight through it,with the strength of Christ Jesus. He's molding me into the woman I've wanted to be...longed to be,know I can be. The father of my child didn't want those things. But I believe that God will have mercy and change his heart so that we can get along for our daughter's sake. For now I stay sober, celibate, and I will stay that way till I'm married. I will however remain sober always God has delivered me from smoking of 7 years. Drinking,not often but when I did it was not pretty. I no longer smoke weed. It says in God's word that Christians should be sober. So,that hit hard awhile back. Its only been since October... Doesn't feel long... Idk what's going to happen idk if anyone is reading this,but if you are say a prayer for the father of my child,that he will wake up and be the man God wants him to be. God bless yall

[@mattelliott20]

Frankenstein Gamers Bro you sound like a man of God and that you have come a long way. Basically everything you said and feel sounds about how I feel and the different things I have been told. I moved 5+ hours away from my home to live closer to the girl and we were both on the same page of getting married and talked about it all the time. So its been tough cuz she basically said that and we haven't talk much since... But man I'm doing good I'm closer to God than I ever have been in my walk! :) I even want to become a Youth Pastor now or go into something to do with ministry! I'm ex law enforcement and that hardended me with the things I saw and kinda messed me up as a young 22 year old man. But I'm the the healthcare business now and its showed me that life is short and people need Jesus! SO theres been a lot of good from this. Thanks for the prayers. Stay strong in our Lord and rely on Him cus that is where we get our strength! Ill pray for you too!

[@mattelliott20]

Dalmascan Steel Just focus on Jesus and your relationship with him cuz ultimately our relationship with Him is the one that REALLY matters. That's what ive been doing and He is hold me and helping me a Ton and I'm closer with Him than ever. Hope that will happen with you. Stay in the Word cuz it is alive and active! :)

Through my demanding job, a 10 month old energetic son, an introverted wife and the escrow consulting of buying a home, with property I felt completely overwhelmed. I prayed out to God for help... Today, I heard this song for the first time. Thank you Jesus, for always answering right when the answer is ready to be accepted.

I definitely need God to help lead me. I’m going through a rough divorce and it’s very hard especially since me and my soon to be ex wife have been together for 11 years and have two beautiful children together and now they have to see mommy and daddy become separated from each other and it’s very hard on the kids and hard on me as well. So I’m trying my hardest to follow god and pray to him to help me through very ugly and difficult journey.

[@kovanightshade]

My SO left my son and I 7 months ago. I love him and miss him terribly, but bad things happen for a reason. This song use to make me cry because I always wanted someone to lead me. Recently I have learned, that is nots God's plan for me. God wants me to lead my family, and for him to be the love of my life not my ex or any other man. God will lead me to lead my family. I don't know what the future holds, but the Lord will lead me and be there for me the whole journey.

In 2010 my wife was dying from cancer, I was driving truck at the time going into Las Vegas my satellite radio went out I pulled over got it going, then it's other cord went out, I thought great. Looked for a radio station and found K love playing this song. My wife died about 2 weeks later Christmas Eve. My brother who use to play in a Christian rock band. Lives in Moorpark CA came out learned this song in one day and sang it at funeral. I was left a single dad with 2 small kids and a truck driving job and everything worked out just fine. I gave all my problems and worries to the lord and the transformation was amazing. I've since dodged 2 near head on collisions, it's ok. Been broke, it's ok. Had lotsa money, it's ok. Snowy and overcast, it's ok. It's not my good day or bad, it belongs to God. I started my own business and build churches now. Mysterious ways is an understatement.

[@wandaschmidt5441]

I'll have been married 21years in 2 days. I'm praying for husband to be a strong leader in Jesus'. He runs a business and it feels like his phone and work are his love. I feel so alone. I see all my children, adults and teens, hungry for approval and attention but he has been more impatient and unloving the more he is immersed in work. God Almighty may you hear my prayer for everything this song is speaking. In Jesus name Amen!

[@Vero-cu4hs]

Wanda I pray the Lord help your husband become the man of God He intended him to be! I come against any plan the enemy had for your family in Jesus name! May the Lord strengthen your family and fill your home with peace love and joy in Jesus name Amen!

[@georger.goodman662]

Wanda, my heart breaks for you and all mothers in you situation. I hope things are better now than a year ago. I pray God continues to gives you discernment, wisdom, and courage as you move forward in your walk with God. The greatest gift you can give, other than loving God, is to "love your neighbor [husband] as you love yourself." Jesus sad so!

[@michaelsanders8450]

Be honest with him. Keep praying, but honesty is key.

[@Lordivus]

Wanda, I hope everything turned out ok, since you wrote this, it has been 2 years since my wife left me for this very reason, and she was always abused by the boy who stayed with us, I told her that she wanted him to be there, then she has to take care of him or he goes, but wouldn't let me tend to him as a man, should have, only a man can raise a boy into a man, the boy in question was abused by his mother (used as a punching bag), his father (at the time left his mother and, was big on drugs n alcohol), wasn't much help at the time either, and he (the boy who stayed with us) was always taking his anger out on his sisters and when he came to stay with us, started taking his anger out on my children at first then moved to my wife only because he didn't get his way, my wife bribed him and his grandpa, her father, spoiled him, making it more difficult for me to show him the correct path, and to be a better person, as a result the only way to stop him was to distracted him with playing video games with him and it also created tension between her and I. He and his abusive mother in turn told her to leave me because I was abusive in actuality his mother and he was abusive and controlling. I still love my wife and children very much and I miss them all very much. I know this may be different than your situation, but she also left me for a younger model, but she down graded ;P

[@louisbrugnoni7639]

I know it’s been a year since you sent out this message. Can you let us know how you’re doing? God bless!

[@TheShaylamariah]

I just heard this song for the first time the other day, and boy did it come on at the perfect time. this song is beautiful and so truthful. it brings tears to my eyes every time I play it.! very good artist.

[@l.maumasi6850]

I've heard this song before but I never really listened to the message until last week. Like you, it was what I needed to hear. This is my new favorite song.

[@jcrarela]

You should look up story behind this song here on KZbin. 😉

Just finished listening to the lead singer, Matt and his wife Sarah’s interview on Focus on the Family today. This song means so much more than it already did.

[@jenna_farnorth]

I recently listened to that interview as well. So moving ❤️

[@yadaroni]

This is the heart of God. The Male gender and role in the family is being attacked more than ever before. God set the structure of the family for a reason. When we do things God's way they work out.

[@Vero-cu4hs]

Amen!

[@laurachisum8963]

My husband heard this song and came home and told me about it. He was crying and told me that he felt that it was meant for us and our children. Fast forward a few years, Satan came to kill, steal, and destroy. My marriage is gone, and my husband walked away from the Lord as well. Hang on tight to Jesus! It's a beautiful song!But God is our only hope.

[@iammarriedtojesussatanleav9996]

😢 May God have mercy on his soul and bring him back to Christ while he is still alive, IJN.

My daughter and son-in-law are expecting their first child (a boy) early next year. This song is part of a collection of encouragement for him, as he enters fatherhood. This song has been a challenge and encouragement for me. Thank you Sanctus Real, for allowing God to use you to encourage us men/fathers to be and do all we are called to in Christ Jesus our Lord.

[@mybabybookpage]

I've cried to this song since 2010 when it came out and I'm still dying on the inside. I don't believe in divorce but I've been truly wondering for a LONG time even before this song came out if God even cares. I still have faith but feel so alone and in despair. I hope 40 years bring resolution. 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻😭😭😭😭😭

[@honeystorlie1778]

I am so sorry you have had a painful road...I know that most definitely God cares and that your heart is so precious and valuable

[@FreedomandBaconHomestead]

I have listened to this song and watched this video maybe 20 times near the time it came out and I thought it was powerful then. Today I watched the video with my wife who is the mother of my four children and it brought me tears as it spoke the prayer I've prayed countless times as I drove to work, answered one more email, and sacrificed sleep for the sake of my family. May God bless you all for making this song and so many others which have brought me and others closer to Christ.

[@SaraeLucasGontijo]

I look around and see my wonderful life Almost perfect from the outside In picture frames I see my beautiful wife Always smiling But on the inside, I can hear her saying "Lead me with strong hands Stand up when I can't Don't leave me hungry for love Chasing dreams, what about us? Show me you're willing to fight That I'm still the love of your life I know we call this our home But I still feel alone." I see their faces, look in their innocent eyes They're just children from the outside I'm working hard, I tell myself they'll be fine They're independent But on the inside, I can hear them saying "Lead me with strong hands Stand up when I can't Don't leave me hungry for love Chasing dreams, what about us? Show me you're willing to fight That I'm still the love of your life I know we call this our home But I still feel alone." So Father, give me the strength To be everything I am called to be Oh, Father, show me the way To lead them Won't you lead me? To lead them with strong hands To stand up when they can't Don't want to leave them hungry for love Chasing dreams that I could give up I'll show them I'm willing to fight And give them the best of my life So we can call this out home Lead me, 'cause I can't do this alone Father, lead me, 'cause I can't do this alone

[@eileenprice6909]

10 years ago this song provided me with the way to put into words what I truly desired/and still do. We’ve been married 21 years. Women, Christian women look, act, parent, feel and wife “differently, distinctly”, and that’s exactly what the Word says. RESPECT your husband, waiting on Christs return, do good works in faith.

[@jdayeveryday2461]

When the world attacks you so much that you wanna give up on the heaven sent family don’t let the enemy win, for he’s already loss and is trying to bring you with him, pray to God and wait And pray, basically don’t stop praying in Jesus name amen

[@IEchoa]

I always get emotional when I hear this song I'm asking the Lord to lead me everyday because I can't do this alone One of my favorite Christian songs

[@mtb_manny]

11 years later and this song always puts me back in place. Guess we all have dreams/ambitions, wants and desires outside of our families, but it's about finding that balance right? making sure everyone gets "me time" but not before "family time". Empty yourself but prioritize who gets what. Thanks S.R. for this. As a father now, "Lead Me" like my mantra now.

[@thelastjohnwayne8726]

💯 agree. I heard this song for the first time, today.

[@janicewilliams8502]

My favorite song that is a rock for any couple. Trust in the Lord and he will lead you to everlasting love. Sanctus Real, what a blessing to hear God's words through your music. It brings such comfort to a world of chaos. Thank you!

Hold me with strong hands and stand up when I can't. God. Is. Amazing and I love you and every life on earth, from the poorest of poor, to the richest of rich, we love you

[@godsplan79]

This song.....holy moly!! Every single word is soooo true for my husband and I. He left the kids and I last week, and this song led him back home. I have listened to it at least a 100 times in a weeks time now. Thank you sanctus real. Glory to God!!

[@wac3meehan]

I remember listening to this song hundreds of times! When me and my wife were having trouble, I played it for her the 1st time I heard it. She said it felt like someone wrote down what was going on in her head. It tore me up and I cried everytime I heard it. It helped me figure out how she was feeling and what I needed to do to make things right. It helped us stay together and we've been happy again now for 33+ years!! 💞

[@Wazards]

Lead me, my Lord, my God, to be a man of God first before being a husband and father later on, Amen

It takes a strong secure man to be so open and honest, too bad its not an epidemic.

More daddies should hear this and heed the words , "you can't do it without Him!

[@tweetyd354]

I don't think my husband will ever get it- I've tried over and over, and I've had him listen to this. It just breaks my heart that I never had a husband to lead. I've prayed so often for help, and cried so many tears. I'm not strong enough to do it on my own. And now I can only blame myself that my children don't know God😥

[@christianblankenship719]

This was mine and my husband’s first dance song at our wedding!

[@Cranefluff]

Every man needs to hear this song at least once a week. Many young men listen to too much modern rap and the messages in those songs are the opposite of what real men should want. I mean, I am a 20 year old college students and I already know I want to live a life like the one in the song.

[@AllAmericanGirl1971]

This is my ring tone for my husband. I love this song. It should be the cry of every man's heart.

[@gbpackerfan85]

AllAmericanGirl1971 It certainly is a cry of my heart. I'm engaged to a beautiful woman who is a mother of 3 beautiful children from her previous marriage. While being engaged I've personally discovered and experienced challenges that when I was younger I never thought I'd be going through. As I got older, I generally would ponder about getting married and starting a family which in itself can be a challenge. However, I not long ago discovered it's even more challenging to start a family with a woman who already has one started. In other words, being engaged and (God willing) starting a family with a woman who already has children. I am humbly very thankful that my fiance's children all have a father who loves them and cares for them and because of that I have a mutual respect for him. With no intention of replacing him but with spiritual desire to be a "man of God" for my fiance and her children. And so enter this song... I was on my way home from work and heard it on the radio. I immediately cried my heart out to God because of how much this song spoke to me. Truly hitting home and describing and explaining in beautiful detail how much I truly desire to be a man of God for my fiance and her children. Cassie (my fiance) and her children mean the world to me. And so it's very important to me that by the Grace of God that I can lead them with strong hands and give them the best that I can offer. By ultimately trusting in and praying to the Lord to lead me and guide my heart to love them as God loves them. We love because he first loved us. 1 John 4:19 NIV

[@joselinejacobo9498]

Father Lead Me Because I can't do this Alone. Amen

[@tiny_but_mighty3808]

I lived in another country for 13 months when I was 9. We decided to come home when my mom admitted that she was planning to take her life. She knew how and when she was going to do it. So we started packing the next day. No one knows but I didn't want to live anymore either. I didn't think about how or when, I just knew I wanted to. We left our house in the other country and this song was one of the first ones that played. Everyone in the car started to cry, my dad, my mom, my sister, and me. I just want everyone to know this. I don't know how many people will see this, but if you do, I hope you can leave situations like the one I had and not take your life. It might not seem like it, but there is always hope. We have been back for 6 years now, and everyone is so much better. Everyone except me has went to a counselor to talk about it, and I have my first appointment soon. I hope everyone who feels hopeless will fall into God's arms, and let him take hold. You may need to see a psychologist, but that is a good thing. I hope you find peace in your life. Just so everyone knows, I haven't had a thought of taking my life since we have been back, and I don't think anyone else in my family has either.

Im praying the words in this song for all men but especially for Alyssa Marie. Dear Father touch her husband in such a way that he'll know it's you loving him then he can Love her with your GODLY love.♥️

[@YICHIHUANG-z3b]

I REALLY 💕 THIS BEAUTIFUL SONG; GOD BLESS YOU!😍

[@nathanclevland399]

We loved each other truly and dearly.. we agreed on everything.. 2 years into our relationship we had a big disagreement. It turned into a big issue for us and we kept arguing and we could never get to the root of the issue.. but God did pulled me aside after so much of us putting each other through agony.. I realized that the real issue was not even a disagreement and was not the struggle of finding a solution of that issue. It was that the moment the issue became an issue we let the feelings get the best of us and fear took place of love.. and that was a choice that I made but I made a big mistake doing that and wish I never did.. but if God never showed me true love I would never have known what it means to truly love. And I put the problem behind us despite our huge disagreement.. and decided to love no matter how angry she made me. because love should be unconditional and that's how God made it. and now things cannot be better. this song really resonated with me. because we can feel so alone even if we are speaking directly to each other.. True love is that commitment until the end. your common goal to serve God to the fullest.. no matter what happens. a human heart will fall but true love will not

[@amyt2008]

I literally cried when I first listen to this. I'm just touched

[@STNH007]

Seek the God first in all things and the Lord will bless you.

[@cici6295]

This song alone has a powerful message. For most of us who are married and have kids. We often feel like we have to be strong for our loved ones and help each other through lifes challenges. It makes us feel like we aren't fighting hard enough, when realistically. We need to go to God Himself and ask Him to help guide us through it all. We need God's love and support in order to help those we love.

[@amidon1971]

This song should be mandatory for all men out there who are husbands or fathers.

[@daltonthurman6803]

[@kevinbowler2538]

At one point, I thought I was going to lose my wife, who was feeling alone. I prayed for a miracle and a change in our marriage. Shortly after, I heard this song and broke down. I listened to it over and over, and realized, I needed to stand up and show her I would fight to keep her and our kids, but needed God's help. We still have our challenges, but we're still together, and I thank God for the second chance. Thank you for the great song Sanctus Real!
