Because Other People Have Said it Better...
There are some amazing songs out there, some of them that have fit me perfectly. Some of them just have a beautiful arangement of words, and so in this blog I want to celebrate these people and the words instead of mine. because some people have just said it better..."I don't have a line of prospects that can give some kind of peace
There is nothing left to cling to that can bring me sweet release
I have no fear of drowning
It's the breathing that's taking all this work"
-"Work" by Jars of Clay
"Baby, don't you cry, 'cause I got it all figured out
You always make me sad
But that's what true love is all about
Rivers never fill the oceans
But oceans always feel
The waters reaching deep inside them
I guess they always will"
-"Mirrors and Smoke" by Jars of Clay
"More and more I need you now,
I owe you more each passing hour
The battle between grace and pride
I gave up not so long ago
So steal my heart and take the pain
And wash the feet and cleanse my pride
Take the selfish, take the weak,
And all the things I cannot hide
Take the beauty, take my tears
The sin and soaked heart and make it yours
Take my world all apart "
-"World's Apart" by Jars of Clay
"You never minded giving us the stars
Then showing us how blind and unaware of You we are
You painted me a picture and showed me how to see
Though I just won't behold it
Unless it pertains to me..."
-"Unforgettful You" by Jars of Clay
*There are lots more Jars of Clay lyrics that I love, but I can't put them all here so I am switching bands now.
"This is gonna bring me clarity
This'll take the heart right out of me
She is everything I need that I never knew I wanted
She is everything I want that I never knew I needed "
-"She Is" by The Fray ....what almost every girl wants to hear
"It's hard I must confess
I'm banking on the rest to clear away
Cause we have spoken everything
Everything short of I love you
You right where you are, from right where I am
Somewhere between unsure and a hundred
And who's to say it's wrong
And who's to say that it's not right
Where we should be for now"
-"Hundred" by The Fray
"If I say who I know it just goes to show
You need me less than I need you
But take it from me we don't give sympathy
You can trust me trust nobody
But I said you and me we don't have honesty
The things we don't want to speak
I'll try to get out but I never will
This traffic is perfectly still "
"Trust Me" by The Fray
"O, and when the love splills over,
And music fills the night,
And when you can't contain your joy inside... then
Dance for Jesus,
Dance for Jesus,
Dance for Jesus and live,"
-"Untitled Hymn" by Chris Rice
Ok, that's all for now, but i might add more later. Oh, and I know this might have only been fun for me, but well, it's my blog :)
