They leave out some very important elements of the gospel: (1) man’s relationship to God before Christ which include his sinful rebellion against God and God’s righteous wrath against sinful man and (2) the necessity for Christ’s humble humanity. We are called to preach the gospel, and Owl City is not being faithful to this call. I’m still young (under 30) and I can definitely hear the improvement from what I was listening to as a preteen to what is being produced Denny and Sam – I must disagree with your opinion that an omission is not something to be worked up about. I too lament the fact that Christian music is lagging behind secular music, but I really think it has gotten better in my life time. I really enjoy the version of this done by “Sovereign Grace.” While I enjoy originality, there is something to be said for being faithful to the sounds of a genre. That said, I still love hymns, particularly the old ones, but also several of the new ones. I think on Cross Movement’s “History” there is even a song about the fact that Christians have quit producing quality art that really impacts culture, not only in music but in painting, (Thomas Kinkade is “the painter of light”? Really?) sculpture, architecture, and literature. Yeah, it’s hip-hop and thus sounds similar to other hip-hop, and not every song or artist deserves praise, but I’ve found it to be more enjoyable than most Christian pop stuff these days. But I will say this about Christian music: if you want to hear good theology and some interesting music, give a listen to Christian hip-hop like Flame, Lecrae, Cross Movement, etc.
I like the original but Owl City isn’t really my cup of tea. I don’t have much to say about this song. I can only hope that Adam Young decides to publish more music like this, and REALLY hope that hurtful comments like many I have read on this stupid blog don’t dissuade him from doing so! This young man does more in furthering the gospel through his “secular” music than most of you posting hateful and disapproving drivel on this website. Many other Owl City songs have pretty overtly Christian lyrics as well (ie Galaxies “Dear God you’re the only North Star I would follow this far…he is the saving grace of the galaxies”, Meteor Shower “I am not my own, for I have been made new”, etc.). My hat goes off to Adam Young for doing this piece. Whether there is a verse missing, or whether Owl City is not technically “Christian” should not matter at all. This, more than most worship songs, is such a beautiful love song between the singer and Jesus. Wow, many of you people are so disgusting and hurtful in your posts! “If anyone thinks he is religious and does not bridle his tongue but deceives his heart, this person’s religion is worthless.” (James 1:26) When fears are stilled, when strivings cease What heights of love, what depths of peace The omitted verse is the one that is italicized and bold.įirm through the fiercest drought and storm
Nevertheless, I’m grateful that he recorded the song. Whatever the reason, it’s too bad he omitted it. Perhaps he left it out because all four verses push the song past the three and half minute time limit for pop songs. I have no idea why the second verse is omitted. This version leaves out the verse that talks about the cross. UPDATE: Tim Challies pointed out something in the comments below that I didn’t notice when I posted this earlier today.
