Furler, Peter - Reach Lyrics






You hold the weight of the world
Still I don't slip through your hands
Your love is bigger
Than just an ocean built by man

I fall again and again
But You whisper, "You're still mine"
You feel the pain of the world
But You never push mine aside

And You reach for me
With a love that quiets all my fears
And You reach for me
Like a Father wipes away the tears

So many people in this world
But I hear You calling out my name
You reach for me
Now I'm never gonna be the same

You know all of my fears
There's nothing Your eyes can't see
When I tried to give up
Lord, You never gave up on me

I give You all of my hopes and dreams
I lay them down
Of all the place I've looked
You're the one truth I have found

And You reach for me
With a love that quiets all my fears
And You reach for me
Like a Father wipes away the tears

So many people in this world
But I hear You calling out my name
You reach for me
Now I'm never gonna be the same

You hold the weight of the world
Still I don't slip through Your hands
You put the stars in the sky
You know every grain of sand

But You reach for me
With a love that quiets all my fears
And You reach for me
Like a Father wipes away the tears

So many people in this world
But I hear You calling out my name
You reach for me
Now I'm never gonna be the same

You reach for me
For me

  1. E.... W....

    Thank you Lord Jesus for my family my friends my unborn that you have so graciously blessed me with! I am forever grateful ♥

  2. L.... B....

    Please pray for Bill Maher. He's gay. And

    L.... B....

    if you feel that way...ask him on a date....is that what your confession is here??...no hate here, just love

  3. N.... G....

    my favorite song ever!!!

  4. O.... I....

    yes that is true he hold the whole world and reach for us. I'm proclaim a Christian......

  5. C.... ....

    Such a beautiful song and video; I especially love the image and quote at the end...that's the kind of Christian I want to be.

  6. M.... M....

    Very nice religious love song. My favorite line is the part where it where it talks about God reaching for us the way a father wipes away the tears.

  7. R.... A....

    i love this song 

  8. t.... ....

    *YOU CAN JUMP OUT OF HIS HANDS WITH YOUR OWN FREE WILL! If you claim to be a Christian and yet "sin everyday", you are not cleansed (1 Jn.1:5-7), you don't know Him (1 Jn. 2:3-4) and you don't love Him (John **14:15**). You must "go and sin no more" (John **5:14**, **8:11**)! ONLY if you TURN FROM SIN, will He have mercy on you (Is.55:6-7). STOP SINNING TODAY or GO TO HELL FOREVER!*

    t.... ....

    That is absolutely true, repentance and forgiveness go hand in hand.

    t.... ....

    oh
    i see. i feel to weak to reach salvation :(

    t.... ....

    He said those who seek Him will find him in the Bible..
    He also said there is nothing you can do to gain your salvation it's all through him.
    He said when we're weak he strong so being weak is not a bad place if you seek the Lord when you're in that place wishing you salvation in the future friend so you can know the Lord like I do cuz he's real and he'll comfort you talk to you help you encourage you and always be there he will never forsake you ever. We are in the last days of tribulation all the signpost have been seen, so reach up he's reaching out to you

    t.... ....

    +truthdisciple You seem very ready to condemn people.

    t.... ....

    We all sun and fall short everyday

  9. L.... M....

    God, Thank you for protecting me.  Praise You Yahweh.    ------what an amazing song!

  10. T.... K....

    Yes indeed He reached on us. He came for his own, die and rose again, what more can we say or ask than giving our-self to him .

  11. E.... T....

    Also, where the lyrics say "When I tried to give up..." its not as dramatic as you might be taking it. Everyone has their times when they're feeling low, and they feel the situation is hopeless. But God never accepts defeat, and pulls us back up again.

  12. E.... T....

    Let me quote you "when someone falls (sins), they stop being Christians..."
    Actually, that's not true at all. We all sin, and continue to do so when we accept Christ as our savior because we are still in our sinful, fleshly bodies until we are made perfect in the Final Judgement. God understands that we still sin, and he has grace for that, especially since Christ has died for all our sins, past, present and future.

  13. A.... O....

    Its amazingly awesome to listen to this song! I love it

  14. t.... m....

    I would hope this song doesn't deceive people into the "eternal security" lie. But besides that. It's a beautiful song c:

  15. t.... ....

    YOU CAN JUMP OUT OF HIS HANDS WITH YOUR OWN FREE WILL!
    If you claim to be a Christian and yet "sin everyday", you are not cleansed (1 Jn. 1:5-7), you don't know Him (1 Jn. 2:3-4) and you don't love Him (John 14:15). You must "go and sin no more" (John 5:14, 8:11)! ONLY if you TURN FROM SIN, will He have mercy on you (Is. 55:6-7).
    STOP SINNING TODAY or GO TO HELL FOREVER!

  16. k.... ....

    Amazing Love! He reaches just for me! Just for YOU! You hold the weight of the would still I don't slip through your hands!

  17. C.... D....

    i really enjoy this song, its such a exciting feeling, praise god!

  18. Z.... ....

    He forgives all people. That was in the olden days, but not the ultimate sacrifice has been made. When he died all our sins were washed away.

  19. R.... ....

    1. God loves all his people, even the sinners.
    2. People give up for certain reasons. It's not stupid. They fall from God but they can always be redeemed. God never gives up on his people.
    3. Why did you even take the time to post this reply? It's ridiculous. Sorry

  20. V.... ....

    you're the one thruth i have found :3 Beautiful!

  21. h.... p....

    this msg is really deep

  22. a.... ....

    I have a problem with the lyrics:
    -I fall again and again but You whisper, 'You're still mine'... Why do you keep falling? When someone falls (sins), they stop being Christians... How can He say "You're still mine" when you are sinning?
    -When I tried to give up, Lord, You never gave up on me... Why are you trying to give up? That is stupid! Jesus Christ will never give up on a person. But a person CAN "give up" on Jesus.
    - I hear you calling out my name... Sounds like predestination, it's FALSE!

  23. M.... ....

    I do like the Owl City-like sound thats incorporated in this song.
    This is definitely one of my faves!

  24. c.... j....

    superb video and lyrics!

  25. 6.... ....

    great song just azaming

  26. M.... J....

    yeah I understand it's still me TheMJean by the way

  27. C.... ....

    I understand you're excited, but you shouldn't take the Lord's name in vain

  28. m.... ....

    I don't know what to say....

  29. J.... J....

    i love everything about this song! I finally found it!

  30. T.... ....

    I'm glad that there is a God to reach for everyday of the hour.. I love my Lord and I am thankful for him everyday... Without him there is nothing, May GOD bless each and everyone of you

  59. s.... ....

    This son is too good! I think my Replay button's broken; It looks like that Red bar is some sort of random dot OUTSIDE the Like/Dislike bar... .

  60. J.... L....

    @InnovationalFilms Well Said.

  61. F.... H....

    I was listening to this on KLove while driving and I was just so amazed. I've listened to this song before, but this time, it just opened up my eyes. I was truly amazed. God, You are so amazing :) <3 Words can't eve describe You, Daddy <3

  62. t.... ....

    Sin can only be forgiven by true REPENTANCE. Jesus said, "Go and sin NO MORE". The BIBLE SAYS: "God is the author of eternal salvation upon all them that OBEY Him" Heb. 5:9
    Jm.1:22 "But be ye doers of the Word,and not hearers only,deceiving your own selves."
    Become a drunkard, sexually immoral, greedy, a liar, etc.,which will cause you to NOT inherit the Kingdom of God but instead end up in the Lake Of Fire (1Cor.6:9,10;Gal.5:19-21; Eph.5:5-7; Rev.21:8; 22:15; Mk.7:20-23).

  63. R.... G....

    It says in the video "a notion built by man," but the description says "an ocean."

  64. G.... I....

    great. !!!

  65. R.... M....

    @891natalie When my friends ask me that question, I answer to them, "Do you believe World War II happened? How about the discovery of America? Do you believe these events happened because you read them in a history book, or perhaps because people have past it down for generations? In reality, The Bible is the most read, purchased, spoken, even stolen history book in the world."

  66. 8.... ....

    This song really makes me think of how great our God is and how he will never let us out of his grasp and that he loves us all the same. Also I love the lyrics! They are just really uplifting and I wonder why people ask about "why do you believe in something you can't see?" and I answer "do you think there are ghosts?" and if you do, do you have proof? they are invisible. we all know there may be some weird ghosts "evidence" out there but we have God's word, The Holy Bible!

  67. 8.... ....

    @ReyMonjaraz27 I think that is a good question but people are (some) just unfortunately never taught the right way but it's our jobs as Christians to tell them and you never know they may just have that speak to them and God will always help those come to him.

  68. R.... M....

    Sometimes I wonder... Why does God love everyone, even those who deny his existence or the people that insult him and his followers? Then I remember, that's not something for man to understand.
    Thank you God, for loving us all.

  69. D.... T....

    I love this song you are so nice and a good singer and you always will be forever good job

  70. D.... T....

    I LOVE THIS SONG!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  71. D.... ....

    For anyone who is looking for a biblical explanation of the gospel and salvation, I would highly recommend checking out the scribd website that is listed on my channel. The scripture references given on there make it very clear and easy to understand.

  72. x.... ....

    i just realised this style of music is close to owl citys and i can totally see them doing a duet <3 *fangirl scream*

  73. H.... ....

    Love this song :D

  74. s.... ....

    Great voice, great talent. I'm a Petra "fan". I heard Furler worked with them in getting back to what their focus and vision was and out came their Jekyll and Hyde CD. I've got that and now this CD. Abide in Christ.

  75. S.... W....
