Today I buried my mother. And as a farewell I used this number. Had honestly never heard of this group. But have become a fan forever.

This song still ignites so much emotion in me… from my addictions healed- 18 years sober- to the lose of a husband, my father , my mother all in six months- I was blessed to see these creative creatures at ACL- the year they marched the Austin HS Band on stage with them… so encouraging and such a spiritual journey… as music always is… thank you for your gift of harmony in so many lives- for such a long time… how blessed we are… Gentleman of the Road…

These guys have gotten me through hell and back peacefully.

What I love most about this song is how it gets increasingly hopeful. It's all calm and somber at the beginning, then the notes keep rising, and at the end it's almost happy.

I don't know if there's an emotion in me that Mumford and Sons haven't captured in one of their songs. Truly a beautiful group.

I had a mental break down a moment ago and this is the only thing keeping me calm. It's so peaceful, but I relate to it so much.

I listened to this at work in a charity shop, when I was in a domestic abusive relationship, which lasted 5 years. I've just come back to listen to this 5 1/2 years after leaving him, now married to my new partner, happy, free and far away from my ex, living a beautiful beautiful life. Thank you Mumford and Sons - you formed part of my prayer with this song and helped me and my daughter escape.

My daughter took me to their concert for my 38 th birthday...It got us through some tough times.... she's been gone 4 months now.24 and gone way too young...I miss you Shelby.

this is that vibration that my soul unwillingly recognizes as the sillouet of itself in another form, free of shame, pride, and matter as a whole. this is like a chant, a spell binding myself to myself, a calling for my soul to fulfill a promise to my heart.

I'll be honest; I only knew Mumford&Sons since "I Will Wait" came on the radios, but since then I've been searching their songs like crazy. This song was the second I listened to, and I've been listening to it every day on my iTunes. It makes me relax, and just because the voice is strong, but also broken. It's been a while since I've been listening it on KZfaq, but seeing the lyrics makes me think about my life. Thank you Mumford&Sons for making me relax and love music more and more.

The way this song makes me feel. It is fucking insane. I will forever love you Mumford and Sons. For making my life just that much better.

This song reminds me of one of my closest friends from middle school. Our marching band played on stage with them at SXSW in 2011 and 2012. I never actually got to go, but after he killed himself in 2015, I wound up listening to a lot of Mumford & Sons. Especially this song. I miss you, Nolan.

Turn my back from my recent disgrace and give me hope in the darkness that I will see the light.... These are the word's that brought me back from the depths of the worst of all drug addictions and in to the arms of the good Lord. They did did lead me south from that place where my children came to hear me roar. These men have been annointed in their music and are an inspiration to many. God bless your precious heart's.

This song which was shared with me by a very dear friend, brought me back from the brink of madness of addiction and the most unhealthy relationship that one could ever imagine. I think I met and fell in love with the devil. She tried to destroy and kill me, or was it me? I will never know what happened but this song helps me come to terms with and let go of it a little bit more everyday. I try to share it with others I come into contact with who go through the same experiences to give them strength to carry on with these struggles. God bless these guys and their inspirational lyrics and beautiful music.

I think that this song displays a human being's undying ability to love unconditionally. "You saw no cracks in my heart" explains just this.

this song reminds me of my dad who left me,my mum and my brother 2 years ago and we think of him as a ghost that we knew and this is our song to him and because of munford and sons i have been able to get through tough times.

I sing this to my husband. we both found each other in a very broken state...I found this, it's perfect.

lovely... so give me hope in the darkness that I will see the light. Thank you my friend.

Love this song, it touches my heart and shows how vulnerable we all are.

Been listening to them since 2014. Was fortunate to see them perform live.

Thank you that someone finally understands me and what I've been through and true pain and what it's like to be broken and to begin to heal. Thank you for hope.

Mumford and sons is my absolute favorite band. No words could decribe how moving their songs are.

I am so sorry for your loss. I have had a similar experience, and this song speaks to me because of it as well.... My heart goes to you. I wish you all the peace that may be wished.

My favorite song on Babel. Mumford and Sons are simply incredible. I've seen them twice in concert and both times were unforgettable.

I was in so much pain 6 years ago from bullying. Hearing this song now, it makes me feel so happy that I got of there and that I’m still here not more broken than I was.

I listened to this song constantly while going through a custody battle (I ultimately won). Still cry every time.

Absolutely beautiful lyrics with profound meaning, a Mumford masterpiece

Showed this song to my friend Jacob when I was training him at work. He was a drug addict and flatlined three times from three separate overdoses. He met a girl named Haley and because of her, he got off the drugs and hasn't looked back. He cried because it hit him so hard. We drove around and must have listened to the song about 10 times in between jobs.

This was my wife and i’s wedding song. One of my most cherished memories was coming down to two songs to pick before the wedding and having my mother listen to both, we both broke down crying when she heard this. She has since passed and now is a ghost that I knew.

Seen these when I was 29 in 2009 when they were playing at universities in the UK as an unknown band. How their music has stayed with me through those good and bad years of my life. Phenomenal ❤

The pain and the loneliness of life still haunt me now that you have gone the pain grows harder each every other day but they say time heals a broken heart i wonder..

These guys have saved my life countless times!!

Best. Band. Ever.

Man, I love this song. And Winston, you'll always be my favorite son.

This song is so beautiful, it makes me cry and not a lot songs make me cry

mumford & sons= best music for any situaton! if I'm happy, Mumford & Sons. if I'm sad, Mumford & sons. if my friend was a little down, tell her to stick Mumford & sons on, and give her over-the-internet therapy. Best music EVAR!

Such healing music. I know from the place they are coming from. Nearly brings me to tears listening to them.

I lost my brother in July and then a life long friend in September and then my Best friend in February I found this song and it helped me music is all I have it’s the best medicine 😇😇😇😇😇

I miss you Doug Arrow. When I need my big brother the most, I know he is there. I just wish...

I honestly hate that people only noticed their song this year, 2022, when this song exists and it's been here long ago. The song is so beautiful, it deserves more attention than "I will wait" if I'm honest.

When I started this song. I was thinking of what this song was titled. I instantly thought of my grandfather. I then started to cry. I give this 15/10

The sadest song I've ever loved!🤗♥️🙏

I’m glad the lyrics and passion in the words and how they sing them cheers me up all the time

This song have a special place in my heart, it's the song that describes perfect the essence of the story that I want to write for years now... It's about sexual abuse, survival, healing and finally redemption. I wish one day be ready to express what I have in my soul and try to give hope at least to one person.🌻

Mumford and Sons are just amazing. Like, seriously.

this song hit me. its such a good song

really great band....watched them in Dusseldorf and they're great live performer.

I'm writing a book and this totally fits with the theme of it. I

This song still means a lot. To many people. We love you Marcus. And the rest of you.

This song cuts me so deep. I lost my best friend to a bullet six years ago, and his soul still haunts me to this day. RIP

first time listening to mumford & sons, llooovvee it

If you sing along the best you can, you feel better.

Right now this song is healing.

Rip Mom. Christine Edwards 12/31/56 - 6/8/21 I will forever miss you my angel.

I love this song so much... Words can't describe...

My friend luke showed my Mumford & Sons 3 years ago. I didn't cared much, but when it became more known to people, I started listening. I should've done that before this. I mean listen closely.

Beautiful Everything 💙

So give me hope in the darkness that will see the light...

PTSD really fucks with your life, not just your mind.

the title of this song alone tells all. I love it.

Painfully beautiful

The war was finally over. The little boy headed to his bunks, and gathered his things. He looked around and saw all the wounded laying in their cots. He noticed something though. They were smiling. Smiling that all the hell they had just gone through was worth something. And the little boy knew it. He didn't need to ask. For he felt the very same way. At the age of 14, he was drafted to fight. He was taken from his parents, sister, and most terrible of all, his dog. His little white, scruffy, dog. He loved that dog more than anything. Every day he would go outside and play with it, bit the dog was old. By now, he expected, his poor old dog was already dead. So, the boy gathered what little belongings he had left, and set out to, well, wherever he may go. He said his goodbyes to his few friends, and left the camp. The boy was 17 now, without any idea where he was, or where his family may be, if they were alive. The young man had enough rations to last for about a week, but not any longer. The boy had suffered a serious injury that left his left leg incapable of very much movement. He was hit with a price of shrapnel from a mortar, and just narrowly escaped death. But now, the boy didn't know what he was going to do. So he headed west, without the slightest notion of where he would find water or food for the journey. After about 3 days, the boy reached a city. Except this wasn't any city. This was his old hometown. Except there was one big difference. The place was empty. From what he could tell, the place had been bombed. He made his way down the familiar street he used to live on. His friend Jason used to live in a house across from his. And he knew all too well that Jacob was dead. As he neared his old house, he heard a light clicking noise. Before he realized what had just happened, it was too late. He had stepped on a mine. He didn't even feel the blast as he was flung into his back yard by the force of the explosion. As he lay on his back, struggling for air, he heard a noise. He forced himself to look over, and what he saw astounded him. Heading over to him, panting with a floppy red tounge, was his old white dog. Except the dog seemed brighter than usual. In fact, the dog looked almost like a beacon of light. He was overjoyed to see the dog. He forced himself up in what little of his body he had left, and crawled up to his old pal. He felt with his bloodied hand the soft fur of the dogs ear. And then he remembered. Remembered when life, was, well, life. He remembered playing out in his backyard, waiting on mom to call everybody in to eat. He remembered dad sitting at the kitchen table, drinking his coffee. And yet here he was, petting the same old dog from his childhood. And all the while, the dog seemed to grow brighter. Finally the boy could not resist any longer. He pulled the dog closer, and gave in to the bright light that was his dogs fur.

"You stood beside my hope torn apart". The STANDING is the focus not the hope. the standing is the acceptance. You cant do anything but stand and accept.

Hey..stop scrolling. Have a good day.

I am a rap/hip-hop/heavy metal lover..... But THIS is just simply amazing

This song sums me up

I am writing a book as well and this song is perfect for it. Even down to the whole turning south part. It's almost like they were right there in my head. Somewhat creepy. Best wishes for your writing!

You said it all !

This song is brilliant

All I think about is Signless or by then known as the Sufferer and just ughhhhh. Mumford and sons songs remind me so much of Signless, Disciple, Psiioniic, and Dolorosa.
