I Want It All (Just Give Me Jesus) - Daniel Bashta

Deng, I really dont have any word to connect with this song.  Simply listen to this song and you will see deep into my current thoughts! 

Give me the real thing, stir up my passion, I want it all, Just Give Me Jesus!!!

 

I don't want just another touch
I'm just looking for the real Jesus
And only You will do

My voice has sung a million words
But I'm still looking for the real Jesus
And only You will do

It's all just meaningless
And empty songs at best
Unless you respond

So give me the real thing
Not just religion
Stir up my passion
With more of conviction
I want it all
Not just a portion
Give me Your presence
Not just some feeling

I don't want just another taste
I'm just looking for the real Jesus
There must be more than this

My heart is cold and faith is weak
But I'm still looking for the real Jesus
Oh I know there's more than this

It's all just meaningless
The stench of hollowness
Unless You respond

Just give me Jesus
Just give me Jesus
Just give me Jesus
I just want You

My voice has sung a million words
They're all just meaningless and empty songs
Unless You respond


All I can do is collapse at the feet of my King,
Paul Shackelford

Arms Wide Open - Misty Edwards

What does love look like? This has been the question that I am asking, what does your love for me look like, how do I learn from how you loved me so that I can love others in that same manner.  Father you are the teacher of love, how to love, what love is, what it really is.  In these last few days that Father has been revealing so much about how I am to be Romanced, how can I ever Romance someone if I do not know the Romance of the Father?  This fact has led me to just sit, read, ask the Father how he loves me, tangible ways, in my day, in my walk to class, in my lunch with a friend.  When I accepted Christ into my life, I did more than just say some words, I accepted the proposal of a loving God who simply wants to love us!   And oh how this song captures almost everything that has been rocking me in the last few days! What does love look like? is the question I've been pondering What does love look like?  What does love look like?...

Alleluia - Jesus Culture with Martin Smith

Once again worship last night was Glorious!  Had a great day just chilling with my SDP folks from last summer, went up the river and just talked about the past season of life and where the Lord is leading us into.  Exciting and scary stuff but it was great to be back with some awesome people who speak some potent truth.   Last night during worship was one of many firsts...  For the first time in a long time I actually stood while I sang, for the first time in a long time I was singing from a place of Joy, for the first time in a long time I did not care how I worshiped my Lord I just worshiped.  Well its not like these things have not happened ever in my life, but I just felt so much peace during worship.  So I decided to throw the song that we just repeated for a long while up here, mainly cause I did not know the name so I was looking it up and now I am pumped, gotta buy this album!   All the angels cry out, Holy is the Lord God ...

Rise Again - Needtobreathe

I have been reading a book about the arts and Christians role in creating culture.  Steve Turner, the author, asserts a major critique that modern Christian art does not speak about real life.  The art created does not sound genuine or have any ties to real life that people outside the faith can connect with.  While reading the book I listened through this album and I think that this song does a great job of breaking the mold.  The members of Needtobreathe are all outspoken followers of Jesus but very little of the art that they produce mentions Jesus or Christianity at all.  Instead they craft creative music, written from places of pain and joy.   "Rise Again"  steps through pain that occurs in life as we see relationships stretched and torn.  The bitterness of broken hearts and friendships is then contrasted with the truth that we will get up from this pain and rise again.   "I can see us moving on, I can feel that coming on strong", the j...
