I love that lyric "...tears of saints and hypocrites". I have had a season where often times I felt like a pharisee/hypocrite before God and felt like I wasn't good with Him and felt afraid to approach Him. And then I heard this sermon the other month where the pastor pointed out that two of the first people to believe in Jesus were Pharisees (Joseph and Nicodemus -- had to look it up haha) when they took his body to bury it. I started crying because I realized how radical the Good News of Jesus is... it is not just for the saints but the hypocrites like me. And that love is what changes our hearts, through the Spirit of God. My prayer has been this: Have mercy on me, God. And he is always willing to answer that prayer. He is Good.
This is one of the songs by Swtichfoot that makes me think I am listening to three or four songs just in one, because it says so much and the singing has as many colors as a rainbow. Greetings from the Dominican Republic. God bless us!
Healthy and safe, but recently feeling not so much internally and mentally...but I know God is perfect and loves me and us more then we will ever know!
You know, the first time I heard this song, I had just left an abusive relationship. PTSD had me sleepless and bordering on psychosis, this song calmed my mind and helped me to sleep. It was hope at a time when my whole world was turned upside down and I was really questioning God and my faith.
I always love seeing people sharing their stories how switchfoot songs helped them through a lot. It made me feel that I was never alone. Restless was also one of the songs that kept me sane during the trying times.
Absolutely...Switchfoot is the voice of hope for life lived in all avenues and circumstances... "With the tears of saints and hypocrites..." in this day and age, you'd have to be living under a mighty big rock or on a remote secluded island to not feel the weight of the collective human restlessness and soul-yearning that i thing is well represented by the words, "I'll be waiting Anticipating All that I aim for What I was made for With every heartbeat All of my blood bleeds Running inside me Looking for You I am restless, I am restless I am restless, looking for You I am restless, I run like the ocean to find Your shore I'm looking for You"
*the fact that you have been doing these little videos just continues to solidify why y'all are my favorite band*....and because you sound amazing live, no studio, no added effects!!
I woke up this morning to my soul singing this song. I hadn't had the privilege of hearing this version. Jon, thank you, for simply using your gift. It matters. So much.
Thank you for posting these beautiful songs. God bless you!!! They are uplifting and remind me of how we need to support each other during troubling times. God is good and will bring us through this!!! Please keep posting these!!! God Bless you!
Meant to Live, albumn for me, was rumination of my lifes trek at that point. I was 39 years old. In rehab. Thanksgiving Day at Hot Springs Arkasas Teen Challenge. Never forget. Really never internalized an album...Then or even now. Changed my life and the way I write music. To this day. Mr. Foreman.... THANK YOU for THAT!! I appreciate your Real Life application, with God, in your writing and playing. And "Restless', is the proverbial, icing on this cake of Life we get to eat. Sometimes bitter. Sometimes sweet. BRAVO! THNX JON
Heard Jon play this acoustic in a tent at Sonshine Festival in Wilmar MN years ago, before the album was even out. Got tears then and now still. May we never stop looking until we see Him fully.
This is like my new activity everyday waiting for notification from him...I started learning guitar with this songs chords..supposedly it’s easy but I never get it lol
It is easy when you practice. So keep at it while you're home and keep singing out. Try to pick up the songs that you love so you'll enjoy playing to it. You can also try to play the song in the background while you practice along to it. Slowly and steadily, you'd end up being so much better than you imagined. All the best in learning! I've been learning for 10 years now and looking back, i've definitely come a long way and still keep finding something new that i never thought could be done. In the end, it doesn't matter because i'm enjoying playing to songs while in my bedroom. So don't try to compare yourself to somebody else. Just look at the progress from the day you started; that's the only comparison you should make.
Thank you for this. I remmeber watching these videos back in 2020 when the lock downs started taking place. I was stocking milk in grocery stores at the time and saw a huge shift take place in a lot of things. I was lucky enough not to contract covid up to this point... and today I find myself testing positive, quarantining, and listening to these videos. I've been provided for though all this and I'm thankful for all the songs, stories, and friends who have given me life. Beloved.
Second favorite song from Switchfoot, liked it from the first time I heard it. What a beautiful reminder that nothing of this world can satisfy us the way knowing God and walking with Him can. Especially in these times we can continue to trust in Him and know He is our rest.
Man this is my favorite Jon! I've been wanting, thirsting for more of my Lord, my soul feeling restless lately. The more Y'shua gives me, the more I want still. But He is giving a deep longing to see and know Him. Thank you for singing this ❤️
Please sing Always. For 8 years, it is what I listen to when I can't sleep. It is like an song of assurance. With this pandemic and my dad getting sick, losing my mom, it makes me anxious and I can't sleep. But I know I need to be strong and trust the One who saved me.
Just what I needed!! Curfew here in Chandigarh, India. Stuck inside the house for almost a week now. Although my city has only 8 cases of COVID19 as of now and no new cases in the last 48 hours, keeping my fingers crossed and hopes high that all this will be over soon. Take care, Jon.. stay safe and keep making good music!! Please do a live acoustic set one day here on youtube! If you want I will create a creative for you so that everyone knows you are coming live!!! (P.S. I am the same guy who hugged you on 28th March 2015 Hard Rock Cafe, Gurgaon concert haha :3 )
@@tessazywiec4992 please stay safe! Its a total lock down in Chandigarh.. People are not even allowed to go in the streets. If you want something like groceries, meds etc they have given us some phone numbers. We call them and the govt delivers the stuff at our home. The population density is crazy here! If this spreads here in India it will surpass any country within days!
Only took you ten days to get to restless. :D thanks Fun fact: my first comment on youtube was on a concert video cos you wore my hat while playing, briefly during the encore. That was the Hello Hurricane tour in 2010. I still have the shirt!
This song came out at the perfect time in my life. It helped me through a rough time. And God is still using it to reach me. Thank you again Jon for doing these beautiful songs. I hear alot of Revalation (heaven inspired) lyrics in your songs.
Jon, you rock for giving us something hopeful to await during these long days. Definitely hit my wall this evening and restlessness became more real. Thanks for the encouragement!
I didn't know you were so well read John. It's good to know a songwriter draws on a deep understanding. Have you ever read Luther:s works? He apprehended so much more than most will revert know.
We're really locked down in Victoria, Australia now, and my weekly radio show on Good News Radio is one of the few outings I'm allowed, for the moment. It's love to play a few of your acoustic seasons on air.
Ahhh! ❤️❤️❤️ This song has so many wonderful words and I know them all!!! I can't wait til this is over and you guys tour again. You are truly encouraging. 😘 Love you guys! I hope the whole band is 👌.

Praise God.... Only the Lord God Almighty can feel that void in our hearts
The blues! Lets hear the blues next!

Maria Rendon me too!!

Anticipating
All that I aim for
What I was made for
With every heartbeat
All of my blood bleeds
Running inside me
Looking for You
I am restless, I am restless
I am restless, looking for You
I am restless, I run like the ocean to find Your shore
I'm looking for You"
Because they write great songs! 😎
*the fact that you have been doing these little videos just continues to solidify why y'all are my favorite band*....and because you sound amazing live, no studio, no added effects!!
And we remain restless until we meet Him face to face.

You'll never know how encouraging it is hearing from you each day here in Iowa. Appreciate you man!
waiting for your notification every single day. I hope all of us stay healthy. May God protect us. #StayHome #WorkFromHome

This song has kind of difficult chord shapes for beginners. Maybe try learning G, C, D, and Em first? Those are easier to hold.
@@roshanjohnson8849 I remember printing restless and 24 and probably now is the perfect time to begin again ha

God calms our restlessness.

I loved his Vise versus album, this brings back a lot of memories from when i was a lot younger listening to him with my mom
It’s been raining for a month here in North Texas and the sun just recently came out. It brought hope along with it.
I remember doing a poetic analysis on this song in the 7th grade
I love getting notifications for these.
The range is insane 💫🌊🌹
I love Switchfoot. They are so awesome
One of my favorite songs Jon, thank you so much for taking the time to connect with us, starting to become very restless
