13 years flew by. ABR was by far a big part of my development with my conflicted self. I used to get such a rush from hearing these songs; they're still so very powerful with wonderful execution. Its funny to look back; I am doing much better now!
This song literally saved my life, showed me there's more to life than myself. You will always hold a special place in my heart ABR, God bless you guys
ABR are without doubt one of the very few bands that excel in a medium that has been taken over by hacks. I'm not a Christian, but I hear what they have to say on a philosophical level. Awesome stuff!
"This is my time...! To be...! With! My!! LORD!!!" The ending of this song, and the ending to this album... a perfect example of ABR's Christianity in their lyrics.
The entire song. "Crusades" aka "Holy War" and he talks about not giving up. It's likely he's talking about falling into temptation and the like. In reality I think all of their lyrics are Christian but not outright, you have to look for it.
This was the first ABR song I've ever listened to and it made me instantly fall in love with them. I can't even describe how excited I am that soon after all this years, I'm finally gonna see them play it live on the 10 Years of Constellations tour. I have no idea why they never played this song at their shows before.
Listening to this song after 7 years!! The last time I listened to this song I heard the riffs an insane drumming, now, 7 years later, I hear my own voice in the lyrics. When you've had it with the shit life throws at you, and come back to this song... Damn the feeling is surreal... You guys are from beyond!
The BEST album outro ever created With three fountains off of guardians a close second. Easily my favorite band. No ones ever been so consistent, Lyrically impactful, instrumentally diverse and technical, powerful and just such heartearming and peaceful individuals
There lyrics make me get on my knees and pray! Ive been going through something hard and I can just listen to them and its like im all better and all the sudden i forget that im hurt.
God is God Music is music It doesent matter what type Music is still music The content of the music is the part that matters And the contend of this music is good So why fight about how these people praise God? There still getting the message across Rememder there are many ways to praise God and this is just one of them. Thumb this up so it's at the top and Every one can read.
Your music saved me when I got shipped overseas right out of highschool for a few years. For that I am very grateful. I've been to your annual Christmas Burns red In Lancaster several times. May try to get the Meet and greet package this year 👍 rock on mate's.
Just the other day, i was sitting in the car with my brother-in-law listening to a Christian christmas album, and ABR's cover of Carrol of the bells came on. I liked this band since then, and all i heard were the instruments! This is a great band! One of my favorites along with Demon Hunter, The Showdown and Project 86. I love that there are more Christian bands that are Metal like this. They sound wonderful, and they get the Message out. God bless them and their families. God bless their work.
this morning i was playin this song in my head, and having tears of joy saying its so beautiful. i was checked into the hospital for alchohol poisoning and i feel that this song is what kept me conscious throughout the hole thing. i wanted to pass out but when, i would play in my head the im tired and i swear to you part, id feel like i need to stay awake for just a little bit longer.. i love you so much august burns red, thank you. your lyrics and words are so inspiring.
I love that ABR is so clear about the fact that they are a christian band and that their goal isnt just to entertain but the spread His word... it really makes me want to get back into my religion...
i totally want this played at my funeral. majority of my family can't stand this genre of music but dangit... my funeral, my music. i'll be the first man with a circle pit in the deceased's honor c:
Rip Jief . "praying for the light to just carry me away. Im praying for the light to just carry me away, Say goodnight. Say goodnight. Say goodbye. Say goodbye. This is my time to be with my Lord."
I used to listen to this song, back in my junior year of High School; never really paid attention to the lyrics until now. Crazy how things make sense years later.
ABR makes me think of Michael and Gabriel and all the archangels crushing all evil. Thumbs up if you have the will and strength of a Lion, and the heart of a lamb.
I truly believe in the power of spiritual words in songs no mather the realigion it referring to. I am Jewish, but this song and others by ABR take on a different meaning when you read the lyrics. "This is my time with my Lord" - for the Jews, this refers to Hashem, the one and only. Their songs, although written from a Christian perspective, carry a lot of power and can be interpreted by all monotheistic religions, and for that, I am grateful.
Traducido al español ________ Yo solía ser tan joven e invencible. Los errores de mi juventud están finalmente poniéndose al día para mí. El rostro que mira hacia atrás en el espejo debe llevar nada más que orgullo. Como pasan los días, cada vez es más difícil mantener mi cabeza en alto. Nunca he estado tan cansado, Nunca me he sentido tan débil, Pero te juro que yo no me doy por vencido. Mi vida legendaria está llegando a un descenso elegante. Desciende. He visto El final de la paz y las batallas de comenzar. No voy a olvidar la vida que me tocó. No voy a olvidar la vida que conozco. A medida que pasan los días, se está haciendo más duro mantener mi cabeza en alto. Yo solía pensar que duraría para siempre. Estoy orando para que la luz sólo me llevará lejos. Di las buenas noches. Diga adiós. Este es mi tiempo para estar con mi señor.
@TheNegativeimpact they definitly deserve A LOT more but not more then any artist... theres some really good bands that deserve more. ABR deserves a lot... if they win a grammy award or something, my life'll be complete
I really wish they would play this live. I realize its a challenge, but one night if they're feeling good, they need to play it to close the show... Hopefully on their 2012 tour, cause I really want to go see them next year.

"The face that stares back in the mirror should carry nothing but pride"
This Album is going to get me through the year man.
I hope it did
"i used to be so young and invincible, the mistakes of my youth are finally catching up to me" hit me like a tidal wave.
13 years flew by.
ABR was by far a big part of my development with my conflicted self. I used to get such a rush from hearing these songs; they're still so very powerful with wonderful execution.
Its funny to look back; I am doing much better now!
One of their most underrated songs. PERFECTION.
Greg Renick one of the best
This song literally saved my life, showed me there's more to life than myself. You will always hold a special place in my heart ABR, God bless you guys
This is one of their best songs, definitely deserves more attention.
ABR are without doubt one of the very few bands that excel in a medium that has been taken over by hacks.
I'm not a Christian, but I hear what they have to say on a philosophical level.
Awesome stuff!
absolutely true.
Just watch the videos, read lyrics, listen to their interviews and the answers will come along my friend.
100 % agree
I’ve never been so tired.
I’ve never felt so weak,
but I swear to you that I’m not giving up.......
Their lyrics are REAL, not edgy or controversial.
Just saw them play this album in its entirety at WWWY24 Las Vegas.
Incredible musicians
And now the time has come for them to play it all summer long on the 10 year constellations tour 🤘🏻
"This is my time...! To be...! With! My!! LORD!!!"
The ending of this song, and the ending to this album... a perfect example of ABR's Christianity in their lyrics.

Fucking 13 years man i still think about this song
Listening to this song after 7 years!! The last time I listened to this song I heard the riffs an insane drumming, now, 7 years later, I hear my own voice in the lyrics. When you've had it with the shit life throws at you, and come back to this song... Damn the feeling is surreal... You guys are from beyond!
Matt: Maybe I should ease up on the chinas
Jake: DEEEESSSCCCCCEEENNNDDDD
Matt: Forget that idea. * Chang chang chang chang
Lmao i read the comment at the exact moment 1:00
Love it bro
August Burns Red knows how to end an album. The Seventh Trumpet, Redemption, and Crusades are probably by favorite songs by them.
That opening where the guitar kept getting higher and higher gives me goosebumps every time. Just makes me feel like i have the drive to do anything.
It's even better with the transition from "Meddler" into "Crusades".
13 years later and they still are amazing

Timeless music
The BEST album outro ever created
With three fountains off of guardians a close second.
Easily my favorite band. No ones ever been so consistent, Lyrically impactful, instrumentally diverse and technical, powerful and just such heartearming and peaceful individuals
There lyrics make me get on my knees and pray! Ive been going through something hard and I can just listen to them and its like im all better and all the sudden i forget that im hurt.
God is God
Music is music
It doesent matter what type
Music is still music
The content of the music is the part that matters
And the contend of this music is good
So why fight about how these people praise God?
There still getting the message across
Rememder there are many ways to praise God and this is just one of them.
Thumb this up so it's at the top and Every one can read.

I saw them play this live and that breakdown at 1:00 literally ruptured my insides
WHAAAAT! On the Mesengers tour? I've seen them twice, they haven't played this one!
stefan82010 nahh it was a longgg as time ago
Can wait to hear this for the Constellations tour.
and i love the blast beats after that breakdown
this morning i was playin this song in my head, and having tears of joy saying its so beautiful. i was checked into the hospital for alchohol poisoning and i feel that this song is what kept me conscious throughout the hole thing. i wanted to pass out but when, i would play in my head the im tired and i swear to you part, id feel like i need to stay awake for just a little bit longer.. i love you so much august burns red, thank you. your lyrics and words are so inspiring.
1:00 point is where its at! crazy breakdown style! Matt Greiner is my insparation! And probably many of yours. :)
I love that ABR is so clear about the fact that they are a christian band and that their goal isnt just to entertain but the spread His word... it really makes me want to get back into my religion...
i swear, one of the best break downs ever
I love August Burns Red, I don't care if they are a Christian band or not, I grew up listening to them.
1:01 best fucking break everrrrrrrrrrrr
i totally want this played at my funeral. majority of my family can't stand this genre of music but dangit... my funeral, my music. i'll be the first man with a circle pit in the deceased's honor c:

"praying for the light to just carry me away. Im praying for the light to just carry me away, Say goodnight. Say goodnight. Say goodbye. Say goodbye. This is my time to be with my Lord."
You're gunna last forever brothers, trust in the movement 💯💪❤️
I used to listen to this song, back in my junior year of High School; never really paid attention to the lyrics until now.
Crazy how things make sense years later.
I was in a place in my life where I thought I couldn't go further... This was the first album I had bought in years. Glad I bought it
this song pumps me up everytime in the gym
This song still gives me goosebumps in 2023.
These lyrics, theis musicianship, this blend of talent and strength is what set's aside metalcore from the rest of music.
I love this song. And everytime I reach 3.30 I just close my eyes and enjoy. I cry and get goosebumps every friggin time, no exceptions. Goddam.
I don't even have the words to describe how awesome this band is .
This song was released on my birthday, 2 years ago, and ever since this song has meant so much to me Thanks ABR
GOD BLESSED ME WITH ABR
absolutely amazing lyrics
just listened 2 the entire album... all their songs are awesome! this has to be their best album yet!
ABR makes me think of Michael and Gabriel and all the archangels crushing all evil. Thumbs up if you have the will and strength
of a Lion, and the heart of a lamb.
I have to say, this song is one of my all-time favorites. Very cool 🙌🔥👌👌
This is my favorite song on this album... the whole album is amazing but this song gives meaning to life and praise to god.....
This song have so much awesome moments... very touching, just great!
God is sitting on his throne, watching the world and listening to ABR!!!!!!!!!!
this song decribes me and how i feel so well right now....
This is my favorite song and has been for a year now. It describes me perfectly and how I think.
it's bands like this that give pride to metal
I will see them TONIGHT !!! :D CANT WAIT !!! QUEBEC CITY
I remember us jamming to this song in your Camaro back in high school..
I miss you bro.. R.I.P Anthony Z.
August Burns Red is the best metalcore band ever .
I truly believe in the power of spiritual words in songs no mather the realigion it referring to. I am Jewish, but this song and others by ABR take on a different meaning when you read the lyrics. "This is my time with my Lord" - for the Jews, this refers to Hashem, the one and only.

the 'i use to think id last forever' is surely one of the most incredible sequences of music ever yeah? fucking insanely good...
Best metalcore band!
Amazing song, favorite band.
i swear if it wasnt for this band inspiring me so much idk what id be doing today.
I am feeling this song 110% right now
I really dig the whole mellow part around 3:30.
I'm not a religious person...so despite the last part of these lyrics,
this song is fantabulous.
This song is so perfect ... LOVE ABR !!! BEST METALCORE BAND EVER

the part that I like the most 1:00, this band teaches a lot
I really wish they would play this live. I realize its a challenge, but one night if they're feeling good, they need to play it to close the show... Hopefully on their 2012 tour, cause I really want to go see them next year.
