I don't know if I've ever mentioned this, but I'm a HUGE music person. I enjoy pretty much all types of music.* I'm the person who keeps the radio on scan and can listen to blue grass and rap all within a 5 min time span. Recently though, I've been listen to lots of Veggies Tales Worship. Anyway, I wanted to start a new Sunday post dedicated to a particular song that's really been speaking to me in the past week. *Jazz is the exception. I know, I know. I just have never been able to enjoy it. It confuses me! This week is a song that I've been listening to almost on repeat for weeks and weeks now. A few months ago I was on a mommy break, wandering through our local christian book store and I meandered into the music section. I don't normally buy CD's because I'm a Pandora/regular car radio type person. But, I had heard a song I loved on regular radio by Meredith Andrews. Then, I heard another song off her new album on Pandora. I decided that if I've heard 2 songs that I can't get enough of, then I'm sure the whole CD is excellent. It happened to be on sale that night, so I grabbed it. And I was right. There isn't one song that I couldn't listen to over and over again. Meredith, her husband, and a writer friend wrote most of the album and it comes from such a worshipful, honest place. Meredith and her husband are co worship leaders at Harvest Bible Chapel in Chicago. Anyways, the CD is called Worth It All, and it's awesome. Plus, she's like my vocal range soul mate, and her stuff is incredibly easy for me to sing, so that's a plus. [For my church folks, she's the one who wrote the song I sang in church a few months ago.] The song is called Start With Me. And seriously, it's been the cry of my heart for weeks now. Start with me God. Start revival with me. Start loving people through me. I can't really do the song justice so I'll post the lyrics and a YouTube video with the song for you.... You are air the desperate longs
Water falling on the sand Silence to an angry storm Sight to a blind man You're still the God of miracles So if You're gonna move again The would You move in me? Move in me You're the beat to a broken heart Bread for a hungry crowd One word from Your voice rings out And the dead throw the grave clothes down Cause You're still the God of the empty tomb The one who came alive again So come alive in me Come alive in me Come alive in me Come alive in me (Chorus) My life is an empty cup Fill it up, fill it up! I wanna hear every rescued heart cry You're enough, You're enough! Break what needs breaking 'Til You're all we see And start with me, start with me Whose arms hold the fatherless? Whose voice do they hear? Who sits with the prisoner And stands for the one who fear? You're still the God of what is just And You're still the God who loves So would You love through me Love through me yeah Come and love through me Would You love through me, yeah Chorus Your kingdom come Your will be done Lord let it be Let it start with me, start with me Ok, so there is your Sunday's Song. There's a pretty good chance next week's song might come from this album as well, because it's just that good! Happy Sunday!
