Sing Your Song

Below are lyrics from one of my favorite bands, ever. I was listening to them today and sensed God speaking to me, "I gave you a song, My love. Sing."

What is your "song?" The special song that God gave to you - to sing and sing loudly?


As you read the lyrics and would like actual music to go along with the song, go to Thoughtful Wonderings, scroll down to the bottom on the page to the "playlist" and click on the second song in the list...

I waited patiently for the Lord.
He inclined and heard my cry.
He brought me up out of the pit
Out of the miry clay.

I will sing, sing a new song.
I will sing, sing a new song.
How long to sing this song?
How long to sing this song?
How long, how long, how long
How long to sing this song?

You set my feet upon a rock
And made my footsteps firm.
Many will see, many will see and hear.

I will sing, sing a new song.
I will sing, sing a new song
I will sing, sing a new song.
I will sing, sing a new song
How long to sing this song?
How long to sing this song?
How long to sing this song?
How long to sing this song?
~"40" by U2

Many will not see or hear if you never sing...so sing - sing loudly!

grace & peace on the creative journey...deAnn

deAnn, I love 40. One of my fav. U2 songs. I learned to play it, because we sang it in the youth group I was in. It's part of a "different" playlist I have. Love that you got published. You are very talented. I enjoy all of the artistic expressions I've gotten to see/ read. God has spoken to me through them [as well as your blogs]. See you in a few hours...

Hey there deeder

That song brings back a lot of memories. Back i the day I used to lead a Young Life Club. We used to sing this song in club as an opener to sharing the gospel. It's a great song. I love the sense of longing.
