Christians, what is your favorite song? ?

Okay atheists, I'm sure you'll add your 2 cents also. I'll just ignore you this time! :)

Christians, I love the song "Burn for you" by TobyMac!

You may have not heard of this song so I wanted to share the lyrics with you. They really spoke to me today!

God Bless!

I'm a brand new man, I'm a conscious man

I'm a man whos burnin for you

The mistakes Ive made have been chased away to the bottom of the ocean blue

I'm a brand new man in a foreign land, I'm a man whos feelin that fire

And its all so clear when I'm standing here at the peak of my desire

So wont you move me like you used to

I want the world to know I burn for you

I feel revived again, I am alive again

(Burnin for you) You got me lifted and lifted you lift me up

I feel revived again, Im energized again

(Burnin for you) You got me lifted and lifted you lift me up

Woke up in a sweat, those ghosts in my head

Had a grip, but I slipped on by

Its a whole new day as the darkness fades

And the suns climbing in the sky

I concede, my love, that I need your love

I'm before you, a broken man

And its only you, no substitutes who can renew this soul again

You got me higher than Kilimanjaro

Got me believin I can "save the day"

I'm up and running like their aint no tomorrow

I'd rather burn for you than fade away

I'd rather burn for you than go my way

I'm a whole new guy with a whole new vibe

Changed inside more flame in the fire

Can't stop, wont stop praying for desire

Like the bunny on the screen feel so energized

Old shell gone without a trace, new face

No more shortness of breath, new pace

Live life now without the taste of fear

TOBYMAC, Double Dutch now let the smoke clear

    I love Toby Mac!

    But my favorite song right now is "There's Power in the Blood". My grandma would raise her arm up like she was directing an orchestra (of angels) while we sang that song. I think of her everytime I sing it. She is with the Lord now.

    Definately "Secret Ambition" by Michael W. Smith. Classic song. David Crowder remixed it a few years back and I think that version is even better!

    Young man up on the hillside

    Teaching new ways

    Each word winning them over

    Each heart a kindled flame

    Old men watch from the outside

    Guarding their prey

    Threatened by the voice of the paragon

    Leading their lambs away

    Leading them far away

    Chorus:

    Nobody knew His secret ambition

    Nobody knew His claim to fame

    He broke the old rules steeped in tradition

    He tore the Holy Veil away

    Questioning those in powerful position

    Running to those who called His name

    (But) Nobody knew His secret ambition

    Was to give His life away

    His rage shaking the temple

    His word to the wise

    His hand healing on the seventh day

    His love wearing no disguise

    Some say Death to the radical

    He's way out of line

    Some say Praise be the miracle

    God sends a blessed sign

    A blessed sign for troubled times

    Chorus:

    Nobody knew His secret ambition

    Nobody knew His claim to fame

    He broke the old rules steeped in tradition

    He tore the Holy Veil away

    Questioning those in powerful position

    Running to those who called His name

    (But) Nobody knew His secret ambition

    Was to give His life away

    no, no

    no, no

    i tell you nobody knew,

    untill he gave his life away

    'Offerings' by Third Day ..But you picked a good one too !

    Magnificent Holy Father

    I stand in awe of all I see

    Of all the things You have created

    But still You choose to think of me

    Who am I that You should suffer

    Your very life to set me free

    The only thing that I can give You

    Is the life You gave to me

    This is my offering, dear Lord

    This is my offering to You, God

    And I will give You my life

    For it's all I have to give

    Because You gave Your life for me

    I stand before You at this alter

    So many have given You more

    I may not have much I can offer

    Yet what I have is truly Yours

    This is my offering...

    I'm more of a "black Gospel" music fan myself (no I'm not African-American). You know, choir kinda music. Not your stuffy choir stuff by no means. The kind of choir music that moves your feet, and makes you want to dance and shout.

    If your interested, here is a couple of links of some exsaples of what I'm talking about. The first one is a brief clip shot at out church (in our former building) during a praise and worship service I was leading. The second in a link to our churches web site music link.

    Enjoy!

    "Here I am to Worship 'and' To the Ends of the Earth"

    -By: Hillsong

    *Here I am to Worship* -Listen to this song on imeem.com http://www.imeem.com/gerinesng/music/dS2Ilgfz/hill...

    Light of the world

    You stepped down into darkness

    Opened my eyes, let me see

    Beauty that made

    This heart adore you

    Hope of a life spent with you

    Here I am to worship

    Here I am to bow down

    Here I am to say that you're my God

    You're altogether lovely

    Altogether worthy

    Altogether wonderful to me

    King of all days

    Oh so highly exalted

    Glorious in heaven above

    Humbly you came to the earth you created

    All for love's sake, became poor

    I'll never know how much it cost

    To see my sin upon that Cross

    Call upon the name of the Lord

    And be saved.

    *To the Ends of the Earth* -Listen to this song at imeem.com http://www.imeem.com/loreli/music/h7OSKA_w/hillson...

    Love unfailing

    Overtaking my heart

    You take me in

    Finding peace again

    Fear is lost in all you are

    And I would give the world to tell you're story

    'Cause I know that you've called me

    I know that you've called me

    I've lost myself for good within your promise

    And I won't hide it

    I won't hide it

    Jesus, I believe in You

    And I would go, to the ends of the earth

    To the ends of the earth

    For you alone are the son of God

    And all the world will see

    That You are God

    You are God.

    The Prayer

    but only the version with Josh Groban and Charlotte Church.

    Not really for any religious reasons. I just really love the music and the voices. (I love opera) The message is just a plus but since half of it is sung in another language I dont even know what they are saying, lol.

    Here is a song me and the lead guitarist wrote together when I played bass in a Christian rock band.

    BREAK OUT !

    Society child caught up in this world, so many years of being deceived, satan is a liar that seeks to devour your soul so you'll never believe.

    Can't you see what he's doing, using the world to shape your mind into, a way of acting a way of thinking, that is sure to destroy you.

    ( chorus )

    Break Out ! Break out of the mould ! There is more to life than what they say ! Break Out ! Can't you see you're at war ! Break Out of their mould today !

    I can see the hatred in your eyes, can't you see what I'm saying is true. Just when you think your mind you can shape, they will tighten the chains on you!

    But don't let them do it! Your destiny , choose it ! cause they'll cast you in a mould. Your mind to take, your will to break, and suddenly your heart grows cold.

    (repeat chorus)

    But don't let them do it ! your destiny choose it ! Cause they'll cast you in a mould. your mind to take, your will to break, and suddenly your heart grows cold.
