I heard a song on the radio less than a week ago and fell in love with what words I could hear through the static on the radio as well as the sound of the song itself. Irish. It sounded Irish to me. I told MG about it on our way home from having lunch today, saying how I wish I could hear it again or knew the words to look it up. The song that was on the radio ended and then.....the new song began! God. is. so. cOoL!!!! (cool sounds flippant....honestly, I am in awe that even in this little thing, He answered).
wow. This song.....it makes me want to get up a dance for joy. To give cheerfully, to serve gratefully, to charge forward into the dark places within us all with laughter and giddiness, reflecting, living, offering and trailing freedom and life. If this song could have a color (or two), it would be green....and gold. Green: for growth and newness, re-birth, rejuvenation....Gold: purity, richness, warmth, royalty, LIGHT!
It is a marvelous song! (Lyrics are written below)
Come set Your rule and reign
In our hearts again
Increase in us we pray
Unveil why we're made
Come set our hearts ablaze with hope
Like wildfire in our very souls
Holy Spirit come invade us now
We are Your Church
We need Your power
In us
We seek Your kingdom first
We hunger and we thirst
Refuse to waste our lives
For You're our joy and prize
To see the captive hearts released
The hurt; the sick; the poor at peace
We lay down our lives for Heaven's cause
We are Your church
We pray revive
This Earth
Build Your kingdom here
Let the darkness fear
Show Your mighty hand
Heal our streets and land
Set Your church on fire
Win this nation back
Change the atmosphere
Build Your kingdom here
We pray
Unleash Your kingdom's power
Reaching the near and far
No force of hell can stop
Your beauty changing hearts
You made us for much more than this
Awake the kingdom seed in us
Fill us with the strength and love of Christ
We are Your church
We are the hope
On Earth
