Tuesday's Tune(s)

This song has been running through my mind and heart today. It seems especially appropriate in light of all the craziness going on in our country. I look at our political climate and the presidential hopefuls ... and well, it all just scares me. Then you have the truth about the ugliness and utter depravity of abortion exposed but of course the corporation that profits from this will not be dealt with. And please know I am not attacking the women who have had abortions. I love them and hurt for them even if they don't hurt for themselves.

Personally, there are days when I just want answers but I am met with silence. Frustrations pile up. Stress level rises or is surpassed. I am overwhelmed and just over it all. Those are the days I have to dig in even deeper into my faith and chose to stand on what I know to be true. I am thankful that on a day like today this is the song that is running through my heart.

"Lord, I Believe In You"

Though I can't see

Your holy face

And Your throne in Heaven above

It seems so far away

Though I can't touch

Your nail scarred hands

I have a deep and unspeakable joy

That makes my faith to stand

Lord, I believe in You

I'll always believe in You

Though I can't see You with my eyes

Deep in my heart, Your presence I find

Lord, I believe in You

And I'll keep my trust in You

Let the whole world say what they may

No one can take this joy away, Lord, I believe

Born from above

You are Gods only chosen one

You're the one and only true way

To the Fathers heart

You died for all sin

Then You rose and now live again

Conquering death and the grave

So that I might live

Lord, I believe in You

I'll always believe in You

Though I cant see You with my eyes

Deep in my heart, Your presence I find

Lord, I believe in You

And I'll keep my trust in You

Let the whole world say what they may

No one can take this joy away, Lord, I believe

I also love that the man, Tommy Walker, who wrote this song wrote another favorite of mine which is also perfect on a rainy day like today. 

"We Will Remember"

We will remember, we will remember

We will remember the works of Your hands

We will stop and give you praise

For great is Thy faithfulness

You're our creator, our life sustainer

Deliverer, our comfort, our joy

Throughout the ages You've been our shelter

Our peace in the midst of the storm

With signs and wonders You've shown Your power

With precious blood You showed us Your grace

You've been our helper, our liberator

The giver of life with no end

[Chorus]

When we walk through life's darkest valleys

We will look back at all You have done

And we will shout, our God is good

And He is the faithful One

Bridge

Hallelujah, hallelujah

To the one from whom all blessings flow

Hallelujah, hallelujah

To the one whose glory has been shown

[Chorus]

I still remember the day You saved me

The day I heard You call out my name

You said You loved me and would never leave me

And I've never been the same

[Chorus]

Lord, I believe in you and on those days that I am full of doubts help me to remember all that you have brought me through (Lam. 3:22-24), that you have a plan for me (Jer. 29:11) and are working things for my good (Rom. 8:28).

I love you all.

Blessings ...
