The Lyrics

Everyone has their own way of listening to music. For TH and Bosco it's all about the music, the beat, the repetition of notes. I am all about the lyrics. The lyrics of a song can, and have, changed the entire way I view the world. When I hear truth in words it's a big deal to me. Sometimes, almost more than my heart can hold.

Lately, this is the song that God has used to reach out to me the most. I like the tune, but, it's the lyrics that I feel slowly changing my life.

My friend you know how this all ends
And You know where you’re going
You just don’t know how you’ll get there
So say a prayer

And hold on cause there’s good for those who love God
But life is not a snapshot
It might take a little time but you’ll see the bigger picture

Would you dare would you dare to believe
That you still have a reason to sing
Cause the pain that you've been feeling
It can’t compare to the joy that’s coming
So hold on you gotta wait for the light
Press on and just fight the good fight
Cause the pain that you’ve been feeling
It’s just the dark before the morning

--From Before the Morning, Josh Wilson

Think about it. And have a good day.
