The line "Like a bird with broken wings, it's not how high he flies but the song he sings" gets me every time.

7 years later and I still turn to this song on my worst days......I'm in pain but I'll keep living anyway ❤️

It's not how many times you've been Knocked down It's how many times you get back up Courage is when you've lost your way, But you find your strength anyway Very Inspiring!!

Orianthi AND Lacey in one song and video!? Come tf on now! Gotta love it 💖💖💖

Lacey's voice. Never ceases to take my breath away.

Take all my vicious words And turn them into something good Take all my preconceptions And let the truth be understood Take all my prized possessions Leave only what I need Take all my pieces of doubt And let me be what's underneath Courage is when you're afraid, But you keep on moving anyway Courage is when you're in pain, But you keep on living anyway We all have excuses why Living in fear something in us dies Like a bird with broken wings It's not how high he flies, But the song he sings Courage is when you're afraid, But you keep on moving anyway Courage is when you're in pain, But you keep on living anyway It's not how many times you've been Knocked down It's how many times you get back up Courage is when you've lost your way, But you find your strength anyway Courage is when you're afraid Courage is when it all seems grey Courage is when you make a change, And you keep on living anyway You keep on moving anyway You keep on giving anyway You keep on loving anyway

This song made my heart melt... I absolutely love both Orianthi and Lacey they are both gifted women and they are sooo inspirational. This song makes me want to just cry, cry for every one out there who is going through tough times, every one out there who deserves a whole heck of a lot of love and appreciation for everything they've done for those people. This song gives me hope that there are still people out there who are wonderful. :) I love you Orianthi and Lacey!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Orianthi has to be the most underrated singer/musician out there today. This girl is phenominal and so inspirational. She does it all! Rock, hard rock, blues could even say this song is cross over country....And all I hear on the radio is crap.

I'm 54 years old and been a music/guitar fan all my life, and she is one of the most compelling guitar players I've ever heard. Not sure how I missed her all these years. Hearing this track, I would like to hear an album of hers that follows Santana's lead, where her songs with her on guitar are vocalized by other female singers.

What an Absolutely Amazing Collaboration. Love Lacey with Flyleaf and Orianthi is Flat Out an Amazing Guitarist & Singer. Would love another Song by them. Love This Song 👍🏻

いつ聞いてもええなぁ

2021 and I still cry to this song. I feel like I could have used these lyrics this past year. Everyone needs to hear the words and feel them. In a world split by hate, it would be wise to have words like this in the back of your mind.

I never knew Lacy could sing like that, I love it. Lacy! Lacy! Lacy!

The fact that two of my favorite singers did a song together makes me really happy

The coolest thing about pairing these 2 is, and a nice little number they collaborated on, they are both sisters-in Christ. Praise God. Psalm 104:33 "I will sing to the LORD as long as I live; I will sing praise to my God while I have being."

Orianthi....As a guitarist she has more touch, tone, feel, & speed than most of the "Top Guitarists" out there...She is also an excellent songwriter/vocalist...Listen to her collaborate with various musicians, as well as her solo work...She is awesome!...Did I forget to mention how beautiful she is...(Yes, I'm a fan!)... :)

What a great feel good/fighter songs. Since Thanksgiving week my life has been pretty tough. I've been knocked down so many times but I always get back up. This song is helping me feel better about everything. Funny how a simple song can boost your mood & change your mindset ya know. Thank you Ori & Lacey for a wonderful song. How is Ori NOT bigger then she is? A wonderful singer (needs no autotone) & a kickass guitar player. Hope Ori gets noticed more soon and blows up the music biz soon!

These two together? My fav female singer and female guitarist

I knew Lacey since flyleaf. But, only discovering this song after 9 years!!! What a beautiful song!

thought it was a 2019 song.. don't know about this before way back i'm still inlove with Flyleaf.. geez love Lacey a lot!!!

Whether you suffer from physical or emotional pain,this song is the best way to start out the day!Absolutely beautiful!!

I heard this song in 2010 and 10 years later I still get goosebumps when I hear it.

Ive got this on replay, most amazing song ever. Its perfect for me right now.

Lacey Mosley

Still Listening in 2019!!!! (:

One of my all time favorite songs, together with Natasha Beddingfield's Unwritten!!!. Truly love this song!!!. Courage is such a beautiful word.

Orianthi is one of the greatest female guitarists I have ever seen! And ow Lacey's voice is just OMG! Great combination! keep the good work up, hope to see more duo from these two. :)

I think that Orianthi is one of the best singers ever including Lacey, this is such a beautiful song I really love it.

still listening in 2016!!!! :)

Ori and Lacey - C00L song!!!

She's so right. Courage isn't not being afraid of something. Courage is when you face your fears. That's what makes you brave.

Is that the lead singer from Flyleaf?

Isabella clasped her hands together and held them up against her chest. Opening her mouth, she began to sing: Take all my vicious words And turn them into something good Take all my preconceptions And let the truth be understood Take all my prized possessions Leave only what I need Take all my pieces of doubt And let me be what's underneath Courage is when you're afraid, But you keep on moving anyway Courage is when you're in pain, But you keep on living anyway Isabella ran around the tree and peered around its side, watching as her best friend began walking out of view. She smiled pitifully for him as the fireflies danced to her singing: We all have excuses why Living in fear something in us dies Like a bird with broken wings It's not how high he flies, But the song he sings Unbeknownst to her, through his sorrow Phineas found the strength to finally let out some notes of his own: Courage is when you're afraid, (I'm so afraid) But you keep on moving anyway (I can't keep moving on) Courage is when you're in pain, (Oh, how my heart hurts) But you keep on living anyway (I just can't live like this…) You keep on living anyway (… I can't keep living anyway) The forest seemed to dance along to the unknown duet the two teenagers sang. Isabella turned around and glued her back against the tree, spreading her arms against its trunk and turning her head upwards. It's not how many times you've been knocked down It's how many times you get back up Phineas would have rejoiced that he had the strength now to sing again, had it not been for the fear that weighed his heart down. He wished so badly to find himself again, to feel the way he used to feel, but with an end such as is seemingly unavoidable now, it was hard to see past the pain. In his sorrow he forgot of the positive things he had spoken about with Ferb in the Queen's garden that morning. He raised his head and gestured to the forest around him as he poured out his heart: It's been such a lonely road To carry all this pain, on my own Each night my soul does pray To be delivered from this in anyway This path wasn't mine to choose Where their lives I save, but mine I lose They don't know how hard I cry When my courage fails and my fears arise While he placed he spread out his arms and closed his eyes, Isabella clasped her hands together again and pressed them against her heart: Courage is when you've lost your way, (I've lost my way) But you find your strength anyway (Oh where's my strength)Courage is when you're afraid (I'm so afraid) Courage is when it all seems grey (Oh please, I pray) Courage is when you make a change, (Why was I the one) And you keep on living anyway (to make this change anyway?) Phineas lowered his arms and continued on his way towards the village with his head down. Isabella closed her eyes for a moment and then looked around the tree, only to find that the Seer had completely disappeared from view now. You keep on moving anyway (anyway…) You keep on giving anyway (anyway…) She placed a hand on her heart and smiled encouragingly. You keep on loving anyway Isabella raised her hand to her mouth and blew a kiss in her best friend's direction. "Sweet dreams, Phineas," she whispered before turning around and walking back to the fire and music.

Lacey and Orianthi complement each other very well. Great duo and very pretty song with a great message. I'd love to see more of these ladies together.

3:26 Lacey's line here has power, and gets me going every time! Perfect climax that I wish was longer.

Why is this song not getting used in commercials?!?

This is one song that I can relate to. Courage happens when something terrible happens in your life, but you keep on living, keeping in mind that things will get better. I felt like I lost everything once.. But I kept on going, I made it through, and now I feel stronger than ever.

You can really hear the Beauty of both their Voices!!! Awesome song!!

still listening in 2018!!!! :)

Good lyrics Orianthi

I'll give an example. when Orianthi describes the first time she was turned on to rock music. It wasn't just Santana that did it for her, it was the quality in the guitar sound/tone along with the skill of the player. So she became not only obsessed with Rock music, but the equipment based on it's sound quality. It's actually a sign of a producer in the making. Not just a master musician/song writer.

ah finding this song for decades, so glad i did it :)

Orianthi reminds me of Nancy Wilson of Heart :D

wowww what a song, what a guitar solo

This song effects me so much. I can't help but look up at the sky and just sing along, and mhy heart pounds and I smile so much, it's just amazing in every way.

This is a GREAT song Ori! Every time I hear this song it gives me hope and lifts me up. Keep playing ... REAL music!! Be peaceful ...

This was excellent art. Thank you.

2019 🌅😍

THANKS, Ori., for "Courage". This song is a "must go to", currently, in my life.

all time best song, duo ever!!! Love it, so beautiful and it has amazing electric guitar in it too, can't get much better than that!

Still listening in 2017

Holy shit, i love lacey.

Courage Means U Don't Get Afraid, Courage Means U Don't Let Fear Stop U...

良い曲ですね！！

2019!!!!! squad????????

LACEY MOSLEY!!!!!!!!!

man i remember watching this vid A LONG time ago but never could find it again.. now that ive found it, it's my new jam :)

They are comfortable being who they are. And they are amazing. This is one of the best songs I have ever heard and I hope orianthi and lacey do more songs in the future!!! They are great together, don't you think??

The 160 down votes are from guys who's girlfriends/wives walked out on them after watching this video.

The Truth is Genesis 9

"It's not how much you've been knocked down, it's all many times you get back up" that part just hit home... luv it

1st time hearing this and OMG!!!! Amazing message and the guitar is absolutely flawless! Kinda weird I’m hearing it almost nine years later but glad I did! I love it! Definitely going to be looking into more of your music.

Lacey from Flyleaf? NICEEEE

is there a version with only lacey in it

One of my favourite singer with my favourite guitarist, and never heard this song, I need to get off the rock I was living under!

ori has really inspired me to follow my dreams. My mother has breast cancer, and because its genetic, I will be getting it when I'm older. But I am not afraid- I can live my life to the fullest, and see my mother pull through. Orianthi is an inspiration because she followed her dreams, and never gave up.

the only one in the comments apparently ACTUALLY listening to this in 2016

Orianthi - Not only can she sing well, play the guitar and is pretty, she has a kind heart and she makes the songs that encourage everyone and anyone that listens to them. They build our spirit and make our souls more colourful. That's why Orianthi is great.

her guitar solo is breath taking. Love love love.

Like a bird with broken wings, it's not how he flies, but the song he sings

She will forever be the best Woman electric guitar player!!

Almost started crying when that first note came on. I forgot how much I used to love this song. This is so beautiful :(

wow Guess I'm 11 years late discovering this song. I LOVE Lacey's work, and Orianthi has the 80's guitar style perfect!

One of the most inspiring songs i ever listen too. It never fails to touch my heart and make me smile. :D LOVE IT!

Oh gosh her and Lacey! Talk about beautiful women & voices!

This song is one of my all time playlists.

This song must be known and listened, much more all around the would!🌎🌍🌏 Sounds like an “angels’ song”. I’m loving it!😃💫💓

I love Orianthi and Lacey! Both have such amazing talent!

I've listened to some Orianthi and I've liked it but I've never been a huge fan. I'm a huge Flyleaf fan and when this show up in my suggestions lists I thought to myself 'That can't be Lacey Stuem' I clicked on it just to check and I discovered this beautiful song.

Two of my FAVORITE people TOGETHER... Freaking win!!

"Courage is when you're in pain But you keep on living anyway" MUSIC helps to keep me alive...

I got this courage staring me in the face i got this courage leaving me i got what you got inside of me i got those feelings around you i got the courage to love i got the courage to look within

lacey and orianthi

this is absolutely beautiful, i found myself having a big smile on my face the whole time lol how have i not heard this before?

Just bought my rock star daughter a motorhome. Hope she takes a trip with her friends and has this much fun next summer!

Awww i wanna cry!! this song is so beautiful!! i ♥ Orianthi
