Pure Bride

No Matter What

I heard this song on the radio today and I just had to look it up! Its a very beautiful song....take a minute and watch it!




I’m running back to your promises one more time,
Lord that’s all I can hold on to,
I gotta say this has taken me by surprise, but nothing surprises you.
Before a heartache can ever touch my life,
It has to go through Your hands,
And even though I keep asking why,
I keep asking why,

No matter what, I’m gonna love You,
No matter what I’m gonna need You,
I know You can find a way to keep me from the pain but if not,
I’ll trust you,
No matter what,
No matter what.

When I’m stuck and there’s nothing else by myself,
I’m just sitting in silence,
There’s no way I can make it without Your help,
I wont even try it.
I know You have Your reasons for everything,
So I will keep believing,
Whatever I might be feeling,
God you are my hope,
And you will be my strength,

No matter what, I’m gonna love You,
No matter what I’m gonna need You,
I know You can find a way to keep me from the pain but if not,
I’ll trust you,
No matter what,
No matter what.

Anything I don’t have You can give it to me,
But it’s ok if You don’t,
I’m not here for those things,
The touch of Your love is enough on its own,
No matter what I still love You
And I’m gonna need You

No matter what I’m gonna love you,
No matter what I’m gonna need you,
I know You can find a way to keep me from the pain but if not ,
I’ll trust You, no matter what, no matter what.
I know You can find a way to keep me from the pain,
But if not, I’ll trust you,
No matter what
No matter what
No matter
No matter what

Let the Waters Rise

God's love is the biggest thing anybody could ever have in their possession.
His love is stronger than the strongest earthquake.
His love is the best thing anybody could have.
It is better than wealth or success.
As you walk through life, there's a raging sea right in front of you.
It is threatening to pull you in and make you give up.
Your world is caving in.
You don't have a clue on what to do.
Why don't you give it to God. Give all your troubles to God. Give everything He has ever given to you back. A lady said, "My son was dying and I spent all my spare time in the chapel and I would pray. I told God, "I gave my life to you, I can't give his because its not mine to give. And he said, His life is already mine." And right after that moment, my son got better.
Give God your life. Follow him. He will lead and He will rebuild your life. He will protect you. He's the best thing anybody could ever have.

John 3:16
For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

Bow the Knee

I came across this beautiful song on YouTube. Its called "Bow the Knee" and these are the lyrics.

There are moments on our journey following the Lord
When God illumines ev’ry step we take.
There are times when circumstances make perfect sense to us,
As we try to understand each move He makes.
But when the path grows dim
And our questions have no answers, turn to Him.

[Chorus]

Bow the knee;
Trust the heart of your Father
When the answer goes beyond what you can see.
Bow the knee;
Lift your eyes toward heaven
And believe the One who holds eternity.
When you don’t understand the purpose of His plan,
In the presence of your King, bow the knee.

There are days when clouds surround us, the rain begins to fall,
And the cold and lonely winds won’t cease to blow.
And there seems to be no reason for the suffering we feel;
We are tempted to believe God doen't not know.
When the storms arise, don’t forget we live by faith and not by sight.

[Chorus x2]

Does Anybody Hear Her?

This is a song I think everyone aught to hear. Here are the lyrics.


She is running
A hundred miles an hour in the wrong direction
She is trying
But the canyon's ever widening
In the depths of her cold heart
So she sets out on another misadventure just to find
She's another two years older
And she's three more steps behind

(Chorus)
Does anybody hear her?
Can anybody see?
Or does anybody even know she's going down today
Under the shadow of our steeple
With all the lost and lonely people
Searching for the hope that's tucked away in you and me
Does anybody hear her?
Does anybody see?

She is yearning
For shelter and affection
That she never found at home
She is searching
For a hero to ride in
To ride in and save the day
And in walks her prince charming
And he knows just what to say
Momentary lapse of reason
And she gives herself away

(Chorus)

(2x)
If judgement looms under every steeple
If lofty glances from lofty people
Can't see past her scarlet letter
And we never even met her

Never even met her
(Chorus 2x)

He is running
A hundred miles an hour in the wrong direction

Broken and Beautiful

There’s a businessman, there’s a widowed wife
A smiling face with a shattered life
A teenage girl with a choice to make
It’s crowded here in church today

And the preacher says as the sermon ends
“Please close your eyes, bow your heads
Is there anyone in need of prayer,
Oh Jesus wants to meet you here”
Cause we all fall short, and we all have sinned
But when you let, God’s grace break in

(Chorus)
It’s Beautiful, Beautiful
Come as you are
Surrender your heart
Broken and beautiful

Well he’d never been to church before
But he came today as a last resort
His world was crashing in
And he was suffocating in his sin

But tears rolled down as hope rushed in
He closed his eyes, raised his hands
Worshipping the God who can
Bring him back to life again
(Chorus)

There Will Be A Day

I try to hold on to this world with everything I have
But I feel the weight of what it brings, and the hurt that tries to grab
The many trials that seem to never end,
His word declares this truth,that we will enter in this rest with wonders anew
But I hold on to this hope and the promise that He brings
That there will be a place with no more suffering

(Chorus)

There will be a day with no more tears, no more pain, and no more fears
There will be a day when the burdens of this place, will be no more, we'll see Jesus face to face
But until that day, we'll hold on to you always

I know the journey seems so long
You feel you’re walking on your own
But there has never been a step
Where you’ve walked out all alone
Troubled soul don’t lose your heart
Cause joy and peace he brings
And the beauty that’s in store
Outweighs the hurt of life’s sting
But I hold on to this hope and the promise that He brings
That there will be a place with no more suffering

(Chorus)

There will be a day, with no more tears, no more pain, and no more fears
There will be a day, when the burdens of this place, will be no more
We'll see Jesus face to face

But until that day, we'll hold onto you always
I can’t wait until that day where the very one I’ve lived for always will wipe away the sorrow that I’ve faced
To touch the scars that rescued me from a life of shame and misery this is why this is why I sing

There will be a day with no more tears, no more pain, and no more fears
There will be a day when the burdens of this place, will be no more, we'll see Jesus face to face

There will be a day with no more tears, no more pain, and no more fears
There will be a day when the burdens of this place, will be no more, we'll see Jesus face to face
There will be a day, he will wipe away the tears,
He will wipe away the tears,
He will wipe away the tears,
There will be a day.

Never Let Go....

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
Your perfect love is casting out fear
And even when I'm caught in the middle of the storms of this life
I won't turn back
I know You are near
And I will fear no evil
For my God is with me
And if my God is with me
Whom then shall I fear?
Whom then shall I fear?

*** Oh no, You never let go
Through the calm and through the storm
Oh no, You never let go
In every high and every low
Oh no, You never let go
Lord, You never let go of me

And I can see a light that is coming for the heart that holds on
A glorious light beyond all compare
And there will be an end to these troubles
But until that day comes
We'll live to know
You here on the earth
And I will fear no evil
For my God is with me
And if my God is with me
Whom then shall I fear?
Whom then shall I fear?

Yes, I can see a light that is coming for the heart that holds on
And there will be an end to these troubles
But until that day comes
Still I will praise You, still I will praise You

I was on my favorite band website(Avalon) and I clicked on one of the new atists and I came across this peticular song and the words touched my heart(Music isn't the greatest at all) . I figured I'll post about it. :)

You Raise Me Up

When I am down and, oh my soul, so weary;
When troubles come and my heart burdened be;
Then, I am still and wait here in the silence,
Until you come and sit awhile with me.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up... To more than I can be.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up... To more than I can be.

There is no life - no life without its hunger;
Each restless heart beats so imperfectly;
But when you come and I am filled with wonder,
Sometimes, I think I glimpse eternity.

You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up... To more than I can be.
You raise me up, so I can stand on mountains;
You raise me up, to walk on stormy seas;
I am strong, when I am on your shoulders;
You raise me up... To more than I can be.

You raise me up... To more than I can be.
