The Story Behind “Soul Worth Saving” by Apollo LTD

The story behind “Soul Worth Saving” by Apollo LTD

Story behind the song “Soul Worth Saving”:

“As Adam and I look at two albums worth of material in this band, we see a common thread that has run in and out of our music for a long time. That thread is communicating a message to all people, both the believer and the non-believer, that we have worth and value in the eyes of God. That we are treasured by the Father as we are, not as we should be.

The message is simple, but it’s taken me a long time to fully understand the depth of it. I hope you realize what Heaven has known for all eternity: we are all souls worth saving.”

-Jordan Phillips

Related Bible Verses: Romans 8:28 ESV
”And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose.”

John 3:16-17 ESV
“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only Son, that whoever believes in him should not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but in order that the world might be saved through him.

Lyrics to “Soul Worth Saving”:

You say that you're okay
But you've been holding on for dear life
So many years of rain
You can't remember what the sunshine feels like
Inside you're hurting, you're worried you're not deserving of a lifeline

Oh, but the hands that hold the stars
Say you are

Don't you know
You've got a soul worth saving? (oh, don't you know, don't you know?)
Don't you know
You're still a heart worth chasin'? (oh, don't you know?)
There's love reaching deeper
Behind the hurt in your eyes
A diamond that can still shine
I hope someday you realize
What Heaven already knows
You've got a soul worth saving, a soul worth saving

I know your past was dark
But there's a brighter future for you
Sometimes the breaking down
Is the beginning of a breakthrough, made new
So no more living like everything's unforgiven when that's not true

Oh, 'cause the hands that bear the scars
Say you are

Don't you know
You've got a soul worth saving? (oh, don't you know, don't you know?)
Don't you know
You're still a heart worth chasin'? (oh, don't you know?)
There's love reaching deeper
Behind the hurt in your eyes
A diamond that can still shine
I hope someday you realize
What Heaven already knows
You've got a soul worth saving, a soul worth saving

A worthy soul and treasured heart
Beloved more than all the stars
Made for Heaven by design
Worth the rescue every time

A worthy soul and treasured heart
Beloved more than all the stars
Made for Heaven by design
Worth the rescue every time

You've got a soul worth saving (don't you know?)
Don't you know
You're still a heart worth chasin'? (don't you know?)
There's love reaching deeper
Behind the hurt in your eyes
A diamond that can still shine
I hope someday you realize
What Heaven already knows
You've got a soul worth saving, a soul worth saving
