Whoever of you loves life and desires to see many good days, keep your tongue from evil and your lips from speaking lies. Turn from evil and do good; seek peace and pursue it. -Psalm 34:12-14
Sunday we leave on a family vacation. We have chosen to go to the “Happiest Place on Earth”. So I have chosen to represent Disneyland with the most well known song ever!!
OK This is a super long video but it was the best I could find with an authentic feel!!!
In this season leading up to Easter I think it is important to remember who we should be singing Love Songs too!! Therefore this song from Jars of Clay is a perfect song for TSMSS! Please enjoy!!
The lyrics are beautiful!!
“Love Song For A Savior”
In open fields of wild flowers,
she breathes the air and flies away
She thanks her Jesus for the daises and the roses
in no simple language
Someday she’ll understand the meaning of it all
He’s more than the laughter or the stars in the heavens
As close a heartbeat or a song on her lips
Someday she’ll trust Him and learn how to see Him
Someday He’ll call her and she will come running
and fall in His arms and the tears will fall down and she’ll pray,
“I want to fall in love with You”
Sitting silent wearing Sunday best
The sermon echoes through the walls
A great salvation through it calls to the people
who stare into nowhere, and can’t feel the chains on their souls
He’s more than the laughter or the stars in the heavens
As close a heartbeat or a song on our lips
Someday we’ll trust Him and learn how to see Him
Someday He’ll call us and we will come running
and fall in His arms and the tears will fall down and we’ll pray,
“I want to fall in love with You”
It seems too easy to call you “Savior”,
Not close enough to call you “God”
So as I sit and think of words I can mention
to show my devotion
This week I have chosen the Natalie Grant song, Safe. I love the vulnerability that she has in her voice. The lyrics of the song are shown in the YouTube video attached but take a minute to really read the Chorus.
“I’m not gonna hide
I’m not gonna run away
I’ll uncover the scars
And show you every mistake
Your love has mended my blisters
And my bruising shame
Now I, I’m not ashamed.
Here with you
I am safe”
Those words touch my soul.
I am safe. I am not ashamed.
God’s Grace is AWEsome.
