Posted: 11/3/2007 1:14:57 PM | One Touch lyrics/Nicole C. Mullen
Been ostracized for 12 years
I’m used to being alone
Spent everything I had
And now it’s gone
I’m used to being put down
My issues tell it all
My only hope is anchored
In this fall
Chorus
If I could just touch the hem of His garment
I know I’d be made whole
If I could just press my way thru this madness
His love would heal my soul
If only one touch
So many people calling
How could He ever know
That just a brush of Him
Would stop the flow
If he knew would He rebuke me
Or shame me to the crowd
Well I’m desperate ‘cause it’s never or it’s now
Chorus
Suddenly He turned around
He said somebody has unleashed my power
Well, Frightened and embarrassed I bowed
You see I told Him of my troubles
And how…
I had to touch the Hem of His garment
And I know I’ve been made whole
And how I had pressed my way thru the madness
And His love has healed my soul
Then with one word He touched the hem of my garment
And you know I’ve been made whole
And somehow He pressed His way thru my madness
And His love has healed my soul
I tell you He touched me
He reached way down and touched me
When no one else would touch me
Jesus, shol’ ‘nough He touched me…
And I know I’ve been made whole | |

Posted: 11/4/2007 3:44:39 AM | I posit a challenge:
Many of us have posted a song that we derive spiritual meaning from. (Mine was "Alone I Break" by Korn... my insomniatic fit kept me from remembering to post the title, lol). However, who here would be willing to explain why?
I'll go first.
Pick me up
Been bleeding too long
Right here, right now
Ill stop it somehow
Even in the midst of suffering, there can exist the determination to press on.
I will make it go away
Can't be here no more
Seems this is the only way
I will soon be gone
These feelings will be gone
These feelings will be gone
Determination can be a destructive force in its own right: and perhaps, certain kinds of destruction are beneficial. I have had to destroy many previous versions of my persona in order to cope with life events, in a manner of speaking.
Now I see the times they change
Leaving doesn't seem so strange
I am hoping I can find
Where to leave my hurt behind
All the shit I seem to take
All alone I seem to break
I have lived the best I can
Does this make me not a man?
Abandonment can be a severe blow: but it does not have to be the fatal one. Perhaps it is how tall we stand, when we stand alone, that is the true measure of a (hu)man.
Shut me off
I'm ready
Heart stops
I stand alone
Can't be on my own
Even still, the struggle is exhausting. Especially when one is, intentionally or not, struggling alone. There's an old axiom that says "Stand up for what is right, even if you stand alone." But how long can one truly "stand alone"? How much can a person take, before they topple? Everyone has a limit, and it is only in knowing- and exceeding- our limits that we can grow.
I will make it go away
Cant be here no more
Seems this is the only way
I will soon be gone
These feelings will be gone
These feelings will be gone
Pfft, chorus. LOL
Now I see the times they change
Leaving doesn't seem so strange
I am hoping I can find
Where to leave my hurt behind
All the shit I seem to take
All alone I seem to break
I have lived the best I can
Does this make me not a man?
Again. :-P
Am I going to leave this place?
What is it I'm running from?
Is there nothing more to come?
All valid questions. All of which require meaningful insight and soul-searching to answer. How often do we know- and ignore- the answers? How often to we seek answers to the wrong questions?
Is it always black in space?
Am I going to take its place?
Am I going to win this race?
Hey, everyone has bad days. What happens if that's all there really is? It is scary to confront the possibility of oblivion.
I guess God's up in this place
What is it that I've become?
Is there something more to come?
See above, lol.
Now I see the times they change
Leaving doesn't seem so strange
I am hoping I can find
Where to leave my hurt behind
All the shit I seem to take
All alone I seem to break
I have lived the best I can
Does this make me not a man?
Now I see the times they change
Leaving doesn't seem so strange
I am hoping I can find
Where to leave my hurt behind
All the shit I seem to take
All alone I seem to break
I have lived the best I can
Does this make me not a man?
Solitude can teach us our own strengths: by showing us our own frailties. | |

Posted: 11/8/2007 8:31:49 AM | Luther Vandross' version of this....
To dream the impossible dream
To fight the unbeatable foe
To bear with unbearable sorrow
And to run where
the brave dare not go
To right the unrightable wrong
And to love pure and chaste from afar
To try when your arms are too weary
To reach the unreachable star
This is my quest
To follow that star
No matter how hopeless
No matter how far
To fight for the right
Without question or pause
To be willing to march,
march into hell
For that heavenly cause
And I know
If I'll only be true
To this glorious quest
That my heart
Will lie peaceful and calm
When I'm laid to my rest
And the world will be
better for this
That one man, scorned
and covered with scars,
Still strove with his last
ounce of courage
To reach the unreachable,
the unreachable,
The unreachable star
And I'll always dream
The impossible dream
Yes, and I'll reach
The unreachable star
inspiration for me at my lowest ebb.... | |

Posted: 11/9/2007 1:00:32 PM | | Hey Katxxxx I saw the late Robert Goulet In the play of "Man of LaMancha" and it was awesome! I cried during many of the songs. Love it, love it, love it! and Luther is one of those guys that could sing a nursery rhyme and make it sound like you heard it for the first time! -Terrie | |

Posted: 11/10/2007 3:32:02 AM | From my youth I'd have to say Geoff Moore specificly the songs Home Run and If You Can See What I See.
Currently my musical intrests seem to depend on my mood. I can go from Michael W Smith and Third Day's Worship stuff all the way to Metallica, Godsmack and a few other songs.
I relate ALOT to Kansas Wayward Son song but when it comes to one of those hectic days Godsmack Serenity or Vodoo comes in handy :P
I come to like songs because they hit me at a level that's deep inside and can relate to them. Evanescense for example I relate to to songs such as My Immortal, Anywhere and Where Will You Go.
To many songs to list so I'm not even going to try and list the lyrics. | |

Soar- Christina Aguilera:
When they push, when they pull
Tell me can you hold on
When they say you should change
Can you lift your head high and stay strong
Will you give up, give in
When your heart's crying out "that is wrong"
Will you love you for you at the end of it all
Now in life there's gonna be times
When you're feeling low
And in your mind insecurities seem to take control
We start to look outside ourselves
For acceptance and approval
We keep forgetting that the one thing we should know is
Don't be scared
To fly alone
Find a path that is your own
Love will open every door
See in your hands the world is yours
Don't hold back and always know
All the answers you will unfold
What are you waiting for
Spread your wings and soar
The boy who wonders, is he good enough for them
Keep trying to please them all
But he just never seems to fit in
Then there's the girl who thinks she'll never ever be
Good enough for him
He's trying to change and
That's a game she'll never win
In life there will be times when you're feeling low
And in your mind insecurities seem to take control
We start to look outside ourselves
For acceptance and approval
We keep forgetting that one thing we should know is
Don't be scared
To fly alone
Find a path that is your own
Love will open every door
See in your hands the world is yours
Don't hold back and always know
All the answers they will unfold
What are you waiting for
Spread your wings and soar
In the mirror is where she comes
Face to face with her fears
Her reflection looked forward on to her
After all these years
However how she's tried to be
Something besides herself
Now time has passed and she's ended up
Somewhere else with regret
What is it in us that makes us feel the need
To keep pretending
Gotta let ourselves be
Don't be scared
To fly alone
Find a path that is your own
Love will open every door
See in your hands the world is yours
Don't hold back and always know
All the answers you will unfold
Don't wait no more
Spread your wings and soar
Find your road
Love will open every door
See in your hands the world is yours
Don't look back in the window, you'll find your way
Always know all the answers will unfold
Oh don't wait
Spread your wings and soar
Don't wait no more
You've got to soar
Spread your wings and soar
Don't wait no more
No don't you wait no more
Spread your wings and soar
You've can soar
So what you waiting for
Don't wait, Don't wait
Soar For me this song is totally empowering.... makes me remember what I sometimes forget I know :)
Unwritten- Natasha Beddingfield:
I am unwritten, can't read my mind, I'm undefined
I'm just beginning, the pen's in my hand, ending unplanned
Staring at the blank page before you
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find
Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your inhibitions
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten
Oh, oh, oh
I break tradition, sometimes my tries, are outside the lines
We've been conditioned to not make mistakes, but I can't live that way
Staring at the blank page before you
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find
Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your inhibitions
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten
Staring at the blank page before you
Open up the dirty window
Let the sun illuminate the words that you could not find
Reaching for something in the distance
So close you can almost taste it
Release your inhibitions
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
Feel the rain on your skin
No one else can feel it for you
Only you can let it in
No one else, no one else
Can speak the words on your lips
Drench yourself in words unspoken
Live your life with arms wide open
Today is where your book begins
The rest is still unwritten
The rest is still unwritten
The rest is still unwritten
Oh, yeah, yeah This song came out when my vehicle was stolen and shortly after my daughter's father died... there were actually many sh!tty things happening for me all at the same time and I felt as though I was going to fall apart...
I heard this song and it instantly inspired me... no matter how bad things get, you get to create tomorrow with your thoughts right NOW..
So I dried my tears and began to write anew..
Alive- Edwin (lead singer of I Mother Earth) This one is all about simply being happy to be alive :)
Pilgrim- Enya A song that talks about the journey to find... you
Teardrop- Massive Attack For this one it isn't so much the words... its all about the feel I get from it :)
Thanks for the exercise Trippy :) | |

Posted: 11/11/2007 9:24:23 AM | I've always felt that spirit/our inner self/guides can 'talk' to us through music. I have meditated to music for most of my life and so it's been a common thread for me. There have been many songs that reflect on my life but these two I found recently (in the last year) to be pivotal on my path. When I first heard My Sacrifice I was driving and had to pull over because it made me cry. Then I saw the video and it blew me away! :)
My Sacrifice by Creed
Hello my friend we meet again
It’s been a while where should
we begin…feels like forever
Within my heart are memories
Of perfect love that you gave to me
I remember
When you are with me
I’m free…I’m careless…I believe
Above all the others we’ll fly
This brings tears to my eyes
My sacrifice
We’ve seen our share of ups and downs
Oh how quickly life can turn around in
an instant
It feels so good to reunite
Within yourself and within your mind
Let’s find peace there
When you are with me
I’m free…I’m careless…I believe
Above all the others we’ll fly
This brings tears to my eyes
My sacrifice
I just want to say hello again
........................
Tears In Heaven
by Eric Clapton and Will Jennings
Would you know my name
If I saw you in heaven?
Would it be the same
If I saw you in heaven?
I must be strong
And carry on,
'Cause I know I don't belong
Here in heaven.
Would you hold my hand
If I saw you in heaven?
Would you help me stand
If I saw you in heaven?
I'll find my way
Through night and day,
'Cause I know I just can't stay
Here in heaven.
Time can bring you down,
Time can bend your knees.
Time can break your heart,
Have you begging please, begging please.
Beyond the door,
There's peace I'm sure,
And I know there'll be no more
Tears in heaven.
Would you know my name
If I saw you in heaven?
Would it be the same
If I saw you in heaven?
I must be strong
And carry on,
'Cause I know I don't belong
Here in heaven.
tears in heaven is just so very touching... I've lost quite a few loved ones and I guess it reflects on how I feel about missing them. | |

Posted: 11/18/2007 10:44:35 PM | Several small pagan chants; a few awesome songs.
Earth my Body
Water my blood
Air my soul and
Fire my spirit
---------------
The Earth, The Air, The Fire, The Water
The earth, the air, the fire, the water: Return, return, return, return
The earth, the air, the fire, the water: Return, return, return, return
Aye ay aye ay aye ay aye ay: Aye oh aye oh aye oh aye oh
Aye ay aye ay aye ay aye ay: Aye oh aye oh aye oh aye oh
(repeated for a couple of minutes in a group very energizing!
------------------------
Just Because
by Gaia Consort (awesome Pagan Band!)
Do you ever wonder whose face makes the moonlight?
Do you ever look up and find your face there?
Is it any wonder we find ourselves laughing
With your tongue at my lips and your hands in my hair?
I don't need a reason to savor the Mystery.
All we need to is open up one eye...
I don't need a savior to keep me from tumbling
I'll only kneel for my lover's delight
I don't need a church man to show me what's holy
When I see you in the doorway surrounded in light
I don't need a guidebook to paint out my story
I don't need a road map to find my way back home...
So why? Tell me why! How long? How long?
What if "why" is just because?
I don't need a doctorate to speak with authority
40,000 years we've been painting in caves
I don't need an answer to each of my questions
When the nape of your neck just won't let me "behave"
I don't need a bible to swear on my conscience
I don't need a stranger to know I'm not alone
So why? Tell me why! How long? How long?
What if "why" is just because?
I don't need a downbeat to dance in this moonlight
With the drum in my bones I'm naked here too
I don't need a lighthouse to find my over
Filled to my brim with the wanting of you
I don't need a maestro to count out my measure
I don't need a songbook to howl up at the moon
So why? Tell me why! How long? How long?
What if "why" is just because?
I don't need a reason....

Fire In The Head
Emerald Rose (another Pagany band rich with Celtic words)
Chorus:
Fire in the head...I'm a flame in motion
Fire in the head...I'm a sword that's sharp
Fire in the head...I'm a drop in the ocean
A shield in battle and a string in a harp.
Fire in the head...I'm an eagle soaring
Fire in the head...I'm a spoken word
Fire in the head...I'm a torrent pouring
A grain of wheat and a cauldron stirred.
Fire in the head!
Wee Jack's rhymes are sly and hinting
Wrapped in bull skin banging a drum
Wee Jack's looking, one-eyed squinting
Hoppin' on one leg, sucking his thumb
The black sow's chasin' me round the oak tree
Humming a tune that I must learn
The black sow's call to feast awoke me
But oh her cauldron spits and burns
(chorus)
Mad May shakes her bells to ringing
Rides through the door and disappears
Mad May's laughing, asking, singing
Does anyone have ears that hear?
The raven sat in a creek and pondered
Why the alder tree is strong
The raven's head flew off wnd wandered
Singing stories and telling songs
(chorus)
---------------------------
Greenman
by Type O' Negative (not a Pagan Band but this song just rocks and the 6'7 lead singer's deep rolling voice totally makes you think the GreenMan himself was singing. Of all the songs/poems/thoughts about the GreenMan this one freakin rocks my socks so hard I had to pen a story on it.)
Spring won't come, the need of strife
To struggle to be freed from hard ground
The evening mists that creep and crawl
Will drench in the dew and so drown
I'm the green man
The green man
Sol in prime sweet summertime
Cast shadows of doubt on my face
A midday sun, its caustic hues
Refracting within the still lake
Autumn in her flaming dress
Of orange, brown, gold fallen leaves
My mistress of the frigid night
I worship pray to on my knees
Winter's breath of filthy snow
Befrosted paths to the unknown
Have my lips turned true purple
Life is coming to an end
So says me, me wiccan friend
Nature coming full circle
I'm the green man
The green man
------------------------
*goes off to listen to 'Greenman' again*

Posted: 11/20/2007 6:11:58 PM | seeing as i really Love music, there are too many to mention them all, but i will mention some from one of my all time favorite artists, the late Keith Green, he brought life to his songs (kinda like scripture/stories to music)! just reading the lyrics doesn't do justice to actually hearing these songs to music! These are Christian songs. i do have some secular song i like, too, especially the oldies and country!
How Can They Live Without Jesus *****
The Sheep and the Goats/Asleep in the Light~~~12 minutes 14 seconds
Pledge My Head To Heaven
I Want to be More Like Jesus
Dear John Letter (To the Devil)
No One Believes In Me Anymore
Lies
Romans VII *****
i don't have the lyrics to write, but if you want to see them, try this;
delusionresistance.org/christian/keith/Keith_Green_main.html
most of his song lyrics are there!
God bless

Posted: 11/20/2007 8:00:44 PM | A sad one, but it touches me every time I hear it - Keep Me In Your Heart For A While,by Warren Zevon. The song was written by Warren Zevon prior to his death for his wife. It touches me deeply because my brother-law sang it at the funeral of another sister's husband. The sister that was widowed had been married for 20 years and had actually found her "soul mate". They had a marriage that I always envied. We all miss him.
The song:
Shadows are falling and I'm running out of breath
Keep me in your heart for awhile
If I leave you it doesn't mean I love you any less
Keep me in your heart for awhile
When you get up in the morning and you see that crazy sun
Keep me in your heart for awhile
There's a train leaving nightly called when all is said and done
Keep me in your heart for awhile
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-li-li-lo
Keep me in your heart for awhile
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-li-li-lo
Keep me in your heart for awhile
Sometimes when you're doing simple things
around the house
Maybe you'll think of me and smile
You know I'm tied to you like the buttons on
your blouse
Keep me in your heart for awhile
Hold me in your thoughts, take me to your dreams
Touch me as I fall into view
When the winter comes keep the fires lit
And I will be right next to you
Engine driver's headed north to Pleasant Stream
Keep me in your heart for awhile
These wheels keep turning but they're running out
of steam
Keep me in your heart for awhile
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-li-li-lo
Keep me in your heart for awhile
Sha-la-la-la-la-la-la-li-li-lo
Keep me in your heart for awhile
Keep me in your heart for awhile | |

Posted: 11/20/2007 8:08:25 PM | | Personally I'm a huge fan of Iron Maiden .. Bruce****nson is one awesome singer but it would be wrong to say I was spiritually touched by Number of the Beast or a wspiritually though .. maybe the hole pile of his other tracks. Having said that its that kind of music that inspires me. Spiritually though I'd have to say Silver on the Tree is good celtic inspired music for meditation. | |

Posted: 11/20/2007 8:08:42 PM | Another song I chose for the bridal dance at my/ex's wedding, frankly it was the only thing I chose about the whole thing. Love it prior to meeting my soon to ex and still love it:
Van Morrison
Have I Told You Lately
Have I told you lately that I love you
Have I told you there's no one above you
Fill my heart with gladness
Take away my sadness
Ease my troubles, that's what you do
Oh the morning sun in all its glory
Greets the day with hope and comfort too
And you fill my life with laughter
You can make it better
Ease my troubles that's what you do
There's a love that's divine
And it's yours and it's mine
Like the sun at the end of the day
We should give thanks and pray to the One
Have I told you lately that I love you
Have I told you there's no one above you
Fill my heart with gladness
Take away my sadness
Ease my troubles, that's what you do
There's a love that's divine
And it's yours and it's mine
And it shines like the sun
At the end of the day we will give thanks
And pray to the One
Have I told you lately that I love you
Have I told you there's no one above you
Fill my heart with gladness
Take away my sadness
Ease my troubles, that's what you do
Take away my sadness
Fill my life with gladness
Ease my troubles that's what you do
Fill my life with gladness
Take away my sadness
Ease my troubles that's what you do | |

Posted: 11/21/2007 7:56:49 AM | Here's one of my favorite's that i love to sing, it might not touch me Spiritually, but it does touch me none the less.
Blake Shelton~~~"Don't Make Me"
Girl when I look at you
You look through me
Like I’m not even there
I try not to give up, to be strong but
I’m afraid to say I’m scared
I can’t find the place
My heart is hiding
I’m no quitter but I’m tired of fighting
Baby I love you
Don’t want to lose you
Don’t make me let you go
Took such a long time
For me to find you
Don’t make me let you go
Baby I’m begging please
And I’m down here on my knees
I don’t want to have to set you free
Don’t make me
What if when I’m long gone
It dawns on you
You just might want me back
Let me make myself clear
When if I leave here
It’s done; I’m gone, that’s that
You carry my love around
Like it’s a heavy burden
Well I’m about to take you back
Are you sure it’s worth it
Baby I love you
Don’t want to lose you
Don’t make me let you go
Took such a long time
For me to find you
Don’t make me let you go
Baby I’m begging please
And I’m down here on my knees
I don’t want to have to set you free
Don’t make me
Don’t make me
(Don’t make me)
Baby I’m begging please
And I’m down here on my knees
I don’t want to have to set you free
Don’t make me
Baby I love you
Don’t want to lose you
Don’t make me let you go
Don’t make me
Stop loving you
(Don’t make me)
Stop needing you | |

NATASHA BEDINGFIELD LYRICS
"Wild Horses"
Hmmm woah yea...
I feel these 4 walls closing in
My face up against the glass
I'm looking out... hmm
Is this my life I'm wondering
It happened so fast
How do I turn this thing around
Is this the bed I chose to make
Its greener pastures I'm thinking about hmm
Wide open spaces far away
All I want is the wind in my hair
To face the fear but, not feel scared
[Chorus:]
Wild horses I wanna be like you
Throwing caution to the wind
I'll run free too
Wish I could recklessly love, like I'm longing to
Run with the wild horses, run with the wild horses!
Oh yeah yea
I see the girl I wanna be
Riding bare back, care free along the shore
If only that someone was me
Jumping head first headlong without a thought
To act and damn the consequence
How I wish it could be that easy
But fear surrounds me like a fence
I wanna break free
All I want is the wind in my hair
To face the fear but, not feel scared
Hoohhh woah woah
[Chorus:]
Wild horses I wanna be like you
Throwing caution to the wind
I'll run free too
Wish I could recklessly love, like I'm longing to
I wanna run with the wild horses, run with the wild horses!
Oh yeah yea
I wanna run too.
Hohhh woah oh woah oh
Breaklessly abandoning my self before you
I wanna open up my heart tell him how I feel
[Chorus:]
Wild horses I wanna be like you
Throwing caution to the wind
I'll run free too
Wish I could recklessly love, like I'm longing to
I wanna run with the wild horses, run with the wild horses! [X2]
Hooaah woah oh woah
Yeah
I wanna run with the wild horses | |

Posted: 6/17/2008 5:31:43 PM | For me, this one. All my life (or at least since I hear it for the first time)! Except when I was passing through a very hard depression, and this song didn't move me at all, so I found out that I had a REAL problem.
There is is a very decent clip in You Tube:

TODO CAMBIA
Lyrics: Julio Numhauser (Chile)
Singing by: Mercedes Sosa (Argentina)
Cambia lo superficial
cambia también lo profundo
cambia el modo de pensar
cambia todo en este mundo
Cambia el clima con los años
cambia el pastor su rebaño
y así como todo cambia
que yo cambie no es extraño
Cambia el mas fino brillante
de mano en mano su brillo
cambia el nido el pajarillo
cambia el sentir un amante
Cambia el rumbo el caminante
aunque esto le cause daño
y así como todo cambia
que yo cambie no extraño
Cambia todo cambia
Cambia todo cambia
Cambia todo cambia
Cambia todo cambia
Cambia el sol en su carrera
cuando la noche subsiste
cambia la planta y se viste
de verde en la primavera
Cambia el pelaje la fiera
Cambia el cabello el anciano
y así como todo cambia
que yo cambie no es extraño
Pero no cambia mi amor
por mas lejos que me encuentre
ni el recuerdo ni el dolor
de mi pueblo y de mi gente
Lo que cambió ayer
tendrá que cambiar mañana
así como cambio yo
en esta tierra lejana
Cambia todo cambia
Cambia todo cambia
Cambia todo cambia
Cambia todo cambia
Pero no cambia mi amor...
This is the translation that I did:
EVERYTHING CHANGES
The surface changes
as well as the profound
the mindset changes
everything changes in this world
Climate change over the years
the pastor changes his flock
and just as everything changes
that I change is not strange at all
The most brilliant gem changes
from hand to hand its shine
the little bird changes its nest
a lover changes his feeling
The walker changes his course
although this will cause him damage
and just as everything changes
that I change is not strange at all
Change everything changes
Change everything changes
Change everything changes
Change everything changes
The sun changes in its journey
when the night subsists
the plant changes and dresses
green in the spring
The beast changes its fur
the elderly change his hair
and just as everything changes
that I change is not strange at all
But my love doesn’t change
even if I am far away
neither the memory nor the pain
of my town and my people
What changed yesterday
that will change tomorrow
as well as I change
in this faraway land
Change everything changes
Change everything changes
Change everything changes
Change everything changes
But my love doesn’t change…
PEACE! | |

| Has there been a song that really touched you spiritually?
Posted: 7/1/2008 3:41:43 AM | I've read thru the thread and come upon many of other people's choices that strike a note; in fact George Harrisons' All things Must Pass album is on the player now due to Skypoets' choice of Isn't it a Pity and someone else mentioning My Sweet Lord.
Casheyesblonds' choice of Van Morrisons' Into The Mystic, brings to mind Brand New Day, from the same album. There's an uplifting song.
Others come to mind, the more I think of it. The Beach Boys singing Til' I Die for instance. Simple, poignant lyrics written by Brian Wilson himself who usually collaborates with a co-writer for this task. He does a fine job here..
I'm a cork on the ocean
Floating over the raging sea
How deep is the ocean?
How deep is the ocean?
I lost my way
Hey hey hey
I'm a rock in a landslide
Rolling over the mountainside
How deep is the valley?
How deep is the valley?
It kills my soul
Hey hey hey
I'm a leaf on a windy day
Pretty soon I'll be blown away
How long will the wind blow?
How long will the wind blow?
Ohhhh
Until I die
Until I die
These things I'll be until I die
These things I'll be until I die
These things I'll be until I die
These things I'll be until I die
These things I'll be until I die
These things I'll be until I die
These things I'll be until I die
These things I'll be until I die
These things I'll be until I die
These things I'll be until I die | |

I will also be moved by a certain kind of music; one that haunts you, perhaps evoking hidden memories... listening to Enya's music will do that big time. | |

Posted: 7/1/2008 5:31:02 AM | There are so many songs that have touched me at different times.
Stephen Curtis Chapman has a song Cinderella that sings about how quickly children will be gone, to enjoy their childhood. Dad's remember to be your little girls first dance partner.
Shelah- You Lift Me Up- IT reminds me that I am never alone, that God is there to lift me up when I need it.
Mercy Me- Alright- It sings about when problems roll in you can keep your head up and keep on dancing and their song Grace tells another story- God is in control not man
Casting Crowns has many songs- Gosh I could just keep on going. But I'll stop with these few. | |
