this makes me happy...

Fish radio, really?

Today I was listening to the Fish radio station, lame right? But, I heard two songs that moved me, totally worth being lame for. 

 

Although the music style doesn't particularly move me, the words in Brandon Heath's song are a prayer that has been written on my heart.  Here's the chorus:

 

Give me your eyes for just one second

Give me your eyes so I can see

Everything that I keep missing

Give me your love for humanity

Give me your arms for the broken hearted

The ones that are far beyond my reach

Give me your heart for the ones forgotten

Give me your eyes so I can see

 

This next song is one that I just love and is something I am continuing to learn, Love Song for a Savior by Jars of Clay. God being more than just my savior, but allowing Him to be God over all my life! I truly want to fall more in love with Him. Plus, I love the imagery in the beginning; it always makes me think of daisy-chain necklaces and crowns :)

 

 

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

 

"I want to fall in love with You"

"my heart beats for You"
