I always knew none of us "belong" here, permanently. BUT we do belong here for a time such as now to go within, be still, and know God.

This is hands down one of the best albums to ever exist •

[alexkairis]

Rather neat to hear how buried the vocals are in the mix (not much but noticeable) but still work. I hear the highs pop when the other instruments get louder.... Oh, I hear What a neat way of mixing.

[tomjacobs]

used to be the only album I owned physically after all my stuff was stolen so I'd play it on repeat. just saw them live last night in Dallas.

None of us belong here. We all belong un Heaven with our Father who loves us

I haven't heard this song since it came out in 2003, 22 years ago.

In the last 10 years I have lost it all. I became disabled, I couldn't work. I was in pain 24/7. Then my wife died. Then I had to get rid of all of my possessions, to the point of having only what's in my little two-bedroom apartment. My truck and my e-bike. That's all I have. I have few to no friends . There's really no love in my life at all. I've lost it all. It's been a beautiful letdown.

I got married late in life at 59 years old. My wife was 51. We were both Christians, and we deeply loved each other. She was from the Philippines and I was from Detroit. And I brought her to my small lakeside town. We did everything I dreamed of doing with a loving woman. We went everywhere and did everything. Then it hit me and it hit her with cancer. I buried her where we used to go in the fall to take the color pictures. It was the cemetery I used to walk through saying Psalm 23. As I read psalms to my wife I got to Psalms 23 and she died right as I finished. It was a beautiful letdown.

I've had three more surgeries on my ankle one on my knee, to try and help me walk. And now my rotator cuffs are gone. But I am forcing myself to do the things I need to do. I've been a beautiful letdown.

I gave away most of my furniture. I gave it to people. I sold things for mere dollars that were worth so much more. There were so many things that have been through my long journey in life with me, that are now gone. It was a beautiful letdown

But I thank the Lord that I've got a home. I thank the Lord that Jesus is My Savior. I am his beautiful letdown.

Jesus we belong to you. Awaiting for your glorious comeback ❤🇩🇴

[ladyhawk]

I could listen to this on repeat.
Everytime...tears of joy & an aching to be "Home" with "Dad."
But guys, when did your message change from Christianity?

[jonnycaiani]

This album was a staple of my childhood

[thatgirlg]

Can't believe i forgot all about this song!! Thank you!!

My wife and children have instructions: This song will play on my funeral one day.

I don't fit in. Never have. Now I know why. I'm not a citizen of this world. I don't belong here. I belong with Jesus and His kingdom.
