| Nicole C. Mullen – One Touch (Press) Lyrics | 9 years ago |
|
The official video that goes with this song is wonderful. The first time I saw it, it left me speechless. I could feel the Holy Spirit and was touched by the message. So many years of my life, I look back. That woman was me in the beginning of the video was me. Shame dehibilitates us. Jesus, by the blood He shed on the cross for us, sets us free. Free from ALL that the world places on our shoulders - fear, abandonment, shame, hurt. All of it. Free. |

| I hear this song and think of all of the times I've cried out to Him. These moments were divine ones, as I remember them vividly and I could feel His closeness through them all. Thank you, Jesus, for being with me... | |

As a single mom for many years, I can feel this song deep within my heart. I had my son at the age of 17 while still in high school. I was at the end of my junior year when I had him. I pushed myself through unforseen circumstances, and as a single mom, worked the summer after being tutored for the last part of my junior year. Then, I was a single mom my whole senior of high school, but I DID it, graduating 10th in my class. I worked through the summers, and after high school, got myself into college. The road traveled was never easy - and there were lots of bumps along the way, but my strength came from God. My faith in God gave me comfort, hope, peace, and strength that I could not have gotten anywhere else. I was in a bad situation in the year 2000, my junior year of college. I conceived my baby girl who is now 8 years old today. She is a gift from God to me and a blessing that reminds me that even through my own choices, my own mistakes, there are consequences - but God is still good, stands by us, loves us, and has mercy on us. I love her so very much. I graduated again, now from college, now with 2 small children. My son was 4, my daughter was just a baby. I put myself through college as a single mom, and went through student teaching. I am now currently in my 6th year of teaching and just recently (last year) got my masters in teaching. My husband and I (Yes, I got married in 2004) own a house and have 4 beautiful children together. Life has never been easy, and again, there have been many bumps along the way. BUT, God is good, and putting my faith in Him, has reminded me that I can do ALL things through Him who strengthens me...ONE STEP AT A TIME. God bless you all and always remember to thank God for people He puts into your life, whether they are friends, family, or people that have the gift of a good word - in a book or in music!!! Thanks, Jordan Sparks :o) May God bless you... |

| The Fray – How To Save A Life Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
This is what I went through with my brother. I wish I could have helped him. I wish he could have become a part of AA and knew there were others out there who were like him, struggling with the same things. I just couldn't help him. We lost my brother on April 28, 2006. He died in a car accident. He had been drinking before the accident, and although he was not drunk, not a day went by when he wasn't drinking. He was hurting so much inside. His depression was so bad that it hurts me to even think about it. I thank God every day that my brother is in a better place now. He was not while he was here and when alive, we too spent many days/nights at the hospital because of "accidents" or suicide attempts. I thank God that no one else was killed the night Josh died in his car accident. I still wish though, that I could have been there for him - in a way that he would still be here. Just a quick note to let you know not to give up on your friend and to hang in there for her. We never know what tomorrow will bring - and if we can do something to help save their lives - we should. |

| Mercy Me – in the blink of an eye Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
Whenever I hear this song, it is as if I can see scenes of my life flash before me. Good times, hard times, times of trials and tribulations, times of great perserverence and strength in who He was and still is in my life. When I go home to be with Jesus one day, I want this song to play. I want my loved ones to see my life here - and to remember, that in the blink of an eye - we are here and then gone. I will, one day, be in my forever home...just...like...that. In the "blink" of an eye. We need to treasure our moments here and now, because we do NOT know what tomorrow will bring. |

| Peter, Paul and Mary – Puff (The Magic Dragon) Lyrics | 15 years ago |
| I remember listening to this song when I was a little girl. My aunt, cousins, and I would sing it together as we drove in the car, played in the backyard, etc. It brings back such fond memories and then, tears come to my eyes as I miss the "old days". I miss being a kid, the good-old-times, and using my imagination with my little friends. Oh, this song brings back such wonderful memories... | |
| Jeremy Camp – There Will Be A Day Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
This song is beautiful. It touches my heart and reminds me of the hope I have in seeing my Savior one day. There will be a day with no more tears, no more pain, and no more fears. There will be a day when the burdens that we face will be no more, and we will see Jesus face to face. There will be day... I think of this song when I am going through hard times, and, when I am thinking of ones that have already gone home... There will be day. |

| Kirk Franklin – Declaration (This Is It!) Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
This song reminds me that no matter what the enemy throws my way, I have Jesus and what He has ALREADY done for me. In Christ, I can do all things - and Satan, can never take that away from me. One day, as I was jogging and listening to THIS song on my MP3 player, these very lyrics rang truth so much truth and power in my ear: speak against everything that comes To destroy the purpose in your life (This is it!) Worrying about your finances, your future When you can't even sleep at night (This is it!) I speak against depression and fear, every attack from the enemy (This is it!) This is your day, the Lord made it, baby, God has set you free (This is it) As I looked up into the sky, after that last line, I looked up through the trees, and two planes had left their tracks in one spot - forming a cross. I could feel God with me at that very moment, remembering what He has ALREADY done for us. He has...set us free. |

| Casting Crowns – Voice Of Truth Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
When I first heard this song, it reminded me that He was with me and it was His voice I needed to listen to...in the midst of trouble, in the midst of threatening defeat. Weightloss has always been a hugs struggle for me, and I can remember working so hard to eat well, lose weigh, and be healthy. One day, I finally cracked, and was on my way to the store for some "junk". I heard this song come on and I realize that the Voice of Truth was the one I needed to listen to. Satan wants us to fail. It is his voice that tries to bring us down - he is a liar, a deceiver. We need to remember that we are more than conquerors, through Christ Jesus, who loves us and died for us. After the death of my brother, in April of 2006, I heard this song and cried. I heard this song in a new and different light. My brother could not hear the Voice of Truth. Satan's lies and whispers were all that he could hear. I have come to terms with the fact that my brother is now gone, I pray with the Lord. I often hear this song and remember how real Satan AND GOD really are. Life, and the spiritual, are not a joke. Satan is out to steal, kill, and destroy - and we need to never hesitate to share the love, mercy, and grace the Lord Jesus has given to us - a free gift so that no man could boast. Let everyone hear... the Voice of Truth. |

| Casting Crowns – Slow Fade Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
When we live in sin, we don't always see the bad changes occur right away. We slip into the world slowly - and it is a slow fade. A person who is drinking, or committing adultry, or starting to do drugs, doesn't lose everything in the blink of an eye (right away). Slowly, things will pass away from them. This is why we need to be careful, to remember that the choices we make can and many times, WILL, have lasting (often lifetime) effects/consequences. Little children, and those around us, watch, and often suffer, from these bad choices that we make. |

I put my "comment" in the wrong place. Hope everyone here doesn't mind - I just cut and pasted it to the "right" place... Jesus Christ, that's a pretty face The kind you'd find on someone that could save -I'm not sure if this is mockery or not...but really, it is only through Jesus that we can BE saved If they don't put me away It’ll be a miracle -We all sin or fall short of the glory of God. It is not through ourselves that we are saved, but through Jesus and what He did for us on the cross. One may think it a miracle- especially if they do not understand the grace, the free gift, given by God. Do you believe you're missing out? That everything good is happening somewhere else With nobody in your bed The night is hard to get through -These are the hard times, the alone times. You feel like you are searching for something and that there is no end to the pain in sight - and that everything good is happening somehwere else. Alone, and suffering - so the night is hard to get through. And I will die all alone And when I arrive I won’t know anyone -Dying all alone, with no one - friends, family, etc. Where will I go when I die, and if I go to Heaven (???), who will I recognize and who will recognize me???...Because, I don't know if this is all real. Jesus Christ, I’m alone again So what did you do those three days you were dead? Because this problem is gonna last More than the weekend -Jesus died on the cross for us, and three days later, He arose - for us...just as He said he would. This person is asking what did you DO in those three days? and b/c three days is "about" a weekend, his problem is lasting and will last more than that time. How did Jesus come back after those three days. What did He do and how DID He do it? Jesus Christ I’m not scared to die But I’m a little bit scared of what comes after Do I get the gold chariot Or do I float through the ceiling -What happens when we die? He is questioning this. What does heaven hold for him? All of the answers are in God's Word for us - the Bible. Or do I divide and pull apart Cause my bright is too slight to hold back all my dark -OUR brightest is not bright enough to hold back the dark. Only Jesus, who is the True light can do this... This ship went down in sight of land And at the gates does Thomas ask to see my hands? - "Doubting" Thomas asked Jesus to see His hands when He arose after three days. He would not believe that Jesus was Jesus until He saw His hands. I know you're coming in the night like a thief -Jesus says He will come back and no one will know when He is coming. There will be signs of his coming, but no one can say they know the "exact" time. But I’ve had some time, O Lord, to hone my lying technique -He's saying that he has had time to get things together and to know what to say WHEN Jesus does come back. I know you think that I’m someone you can trust -I'm not sure WHAT he means by this in the song. God/Jesus KNOWS that we, in our sinful nature, cannot BE trusted... But I’m scared I’ll get scared and I swear I’ll try to nail you back up -Jesus was rejected and left behind, even by His disciples when He was accused and nailed to the cross. No one stood by Him or defended Him. He did it, however, FOR US. He died and rose again, b/c He knew that only through His blood we could be saved. So do you think that we could work out a sign So I’ll know it's you and that it's over so I won't even try -Let me know that it's you, so I'll KNOW. I won't even think to "nail you back up". I know you're coming for the people like me -He came and died for ALL the world. John 3:16 - For God so loved ALL the world that He sent His only Begotten Son that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have everlasting life. But we all got wood and nails And we turn out hate in factories We all got wood and nails And we turn out hate in factories -We are sinners and have a sin nature. As stated earlier, even His disciples turned their backs on Him. We all got wood and nails And we sleep inside of this machine - Machine of hate, of sin? I am not sure about this part. None of this is for sure. I am just guessing and needed to come here to read and know the words of the song. My interpretation I guess. I'm left not feeling so sure of the artist's intentions when writing/singing it. I must say that it has a very catchy tune, and I can hear/read some truth in it - in how people feel...especially for those who are searching. Jesus said, "I am the Way, the Truth, and the Light. No one comes to the Father, but by Me." |

| The Fray – How To Save A Life Lyrics | 15 years ago |
|
It is amazing how one song can touch so many lives and mean something different to so many. I guess it just depends on what someone has experienced in life, what they are going through or have went through. I have watched loved ones slip away from me because of drugs and alcohol. When I lost my brother in April of 2006, it was heart wrenching. This song, one that plays on my now sober-friend's cell phone (who struggled with alcohol and now attends AA) plays every time I call her. She has IT play because she wants to be there for others as she now has people there for her. She knows she needs them. My brother unfortunately didn't have anyone. He couldn't find someone who truly understood - or that could "save his life". If only I stayed up all night. If only I could have saved his life. This is what THIS song means to me. Josh is gone now, and I believe that he is in a better place. His struggle with alcohol was a long and painful one. Not a day went by that he couldn't drink. He was 22 years old when he died. I love him dearly and always will, and I pray that others may find the help they need and truly be...saved. |

| Natalie Grant – Held Lyrics | 16 years ago |
| A beautiful song. No matter what happens in our lives, God is with us and in His Word we may find comfort. Loss is a very difficult thing to deal with in life, as is pain and suffering and those things that are so hard to understand. God never said we would not suffer or feel pain, but He DID say He would comfort us and never leave or forsake us. To be held...this is what it means to be "held". What a beautiful and comforting thought. | |
| Switchfoot – This Is Home Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
This song is about heaven. Once again, I come here because I heard this song and immediately thought of my brother. I just had to read the words, and once again, I need to comment on another song. My brother died in a car accident, and life here was so very hard for him. He struggled with so many things. Heaven is a new place. It is home. We search for many things while we are here, and God wants us to seek Him. When we are in heaven, we are finally "home" - finally where we "belong". Created by a God who loves us and died for us...and to be with Him is where we "belong". By brother always had questions, and was always searching. When I heard this, I realized what this song was about. No more questions, no more searching - finally home...and he's not coming back, nor would he want to. He is...home. In heaven, a better place. May God bless him. I love you, Josh. I love you... |

| Brandon Heath – I'm Not Who I Was Lyrics | 16 years ago |
|
This song makes me think of how we change once we become born again and ask God into our hearts. We are no longer the people we use to be. We can look back at relationships, friendships, old times - and we can see that we no longer see things the same, feel the same. I thought the other day how I have not changed much. I thought about how I am the same old person I use to be. Then, I remembered the day my eyes were opened and I SAW things differently. This alone, seeing things differently, changed WHO I was. If only those people we once knew, before we were saved, could understand this change. We want them to know what it feels like - but it's hard to explain. It's amazing and above all, God's grace, His amazing grace, is a free gift given to us to accept. I think of my brother singing this song to me from heaven. He is one person who is no longer WHO he was. And now, my bro, can completely understand God's amazing grace. Love ya, Josh, and miss you! God bless all those who read this. I pray Jesus touch your life and show you His grace like He did me. I pray that all know, discover, and accept His free gift. |

| Third Day – Cry Out To Jesus Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
I love this song. It is touching and it is beautiful, and every time I hear it, it brings tears to my eyes. Thinking of all those times that are difficult in our lives, we have Jesus. He died for us and He hears us, bears our pain - with us. One day, while sitting in my dining room, I was crying thinking of my brother who died in a car accident. My heart was broken. I heard this song play. Heard it before, but it was different this time. These lines of the song came on and touched my heart. I felt as if my brother, who is now with Jesus, said to me - in my heart, no more, Faith. No more. No more pain. No more sorrow. No more addiction and pain... For the ones who can't break the addictions and chains You try to give up but you come back again Just remember that you're not alone in your shame And your suffering Cry Out to Jesus. He's with you. He hears you, and with each step you take, He carries you when you ask Him to... |

I would like to know if anyone can clarify the lyrics to this song? I am very curious as to whether or not it is referring to what I'm thinking it does... Is it the struggles and pain that someone goes through in life??? The pain of not knowing whether or not one will live or die - the pain of dealing with death - And through it all - even angels cry??? Did I get that right??? I can't help but wonder. I have lost my brother, forgive me for saying this again and again in the threads (and lyrics pages), but this line: Oh Sister, if you wake up in the night, walls have fallen letting in the light, no need to worry Baby, even angels cry. ...makes me think of him looking down on me, letting me know he's with me and that it's okay to cry. Even angels cry. Thanks to anyone who can help me :) |

| Montgomery Gentry – Some People Change Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
This song sends chills up my spine when I hear it. So many people have gone through so much because of some of the following: addiction, abuse, loss of a loved one, racism, etc. These things can consume a person and it is wonderful to see people come out of it and make that "change". I prayed that my brother would be one of those people...but I was wrong. He didn't make it. I remember one day I was praying, I wanted God to heal him (break him from his addiction to alcohol). I must admit that I had my doubts. I saw my brother go through many "bad days". Actually, the majority of his days were bad. Then one day, I felt God put this on my heart - "Stop waiting for him to 'mess up' and believe that I'm changing him." Wow, that hit me hard!!! When my brother died in a car accident last year, my heart ached and I couldn't understand why God would let that happen. I had a very personal relationship with God and I believed (and still believe) that He hears me when I pray, but I couldn't understand how Him taking my brother could be an answer to my prayer. Well, my brother is a better place now - and all those things are in the past...no more pain, no more sorrow, no more addiction - "changed" forever. When he was here, I prayed that he would be the "light" and help people see what God could do in one's life - so really, I understand what the words in this song mean. Some people change - and they come out of the predicament that they are in. |

My brother died on April 28, 2006 (last year) in a terrible car accident. This song reminds me of the peace he has now - no more suffering, no more pain. "But when I get where I'm going And I see my maker's face - I'll stand FOREVER in the light Of his amazing grace, Yeah when I get where I'm going - There'll be only happy tears - Hallelujah - I will love and have no fear... When I get where I'm going, Yeah when I get where I'm going God bless you, Josh. I miss you - but I know I'll see you again someday...and when I do, I will hold you in my arms and give you one big heavenly hug :) Hugs to you from down here, little brother. Hugs. |

| Casting Crowns – Praise You In This Storm Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
My aunt made me a CD and she put this song on it. I began to cry so hard as I heard the words to this song, because my brother had died in a terrible accident. The words in this song rung so true to me - and when you go through something so hard - it's hard to feel God in the midst of it, but really He's there. "I barely hear Your whisper through the rain, I'm with you...and as Your mercy falls-I raise my hands and praise the God who gives (a life, blessings) and takes away (the death of a loved one, the loss of one's home, job, friend, etc.)." The death of my brother was such a hard thing to handle. I had a strong belief in Who God was and is in my life - but I couldn't understand how God would take my brother from me. I prayed for God to heal him, make him better (he struggled with addiction, depression). Instead, he brought him home...to be with Him. I would cry out to God in pain, I would try to understand why my brother couldn't feel God & experience Who He was in his life... "I remember when I stumbled in the wind, You heard my cry - You raised me up again, my strength is almost gone how can I carry on - if I can't FIND You - and as the thunder rolls, I barely hear You whisper through the rain - I'M WITH YOU"... I love my Lord Jesus, and know that He IS with me. This song was beautiful and touched me in so many ways. In itself, IT was a gift to me. I truly feel that God speaks to us through His word, His voice, and in the gift He gives to many --- song. God bless you, Casting Crowns. |

| Casting Crowns – Here I Go Again Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
I can't begin to tell everyone here how true this song really is. I have felt this way many times - with several people in my life, but the one that stands out for me the most is my brother... I told him about who God was and is in his life the very last time I saw him. I told him how much God loved him, and constantly, I would pray for God to give me the words to speak - the right words. I thank God that I did not hold back when I spoke to my brother - because really, it was my last time speaking to him. I told him that this song made me think of him - that I didn't want to lose him - and I prayed that he knew who Jesus was and is in his life. My best friend had lost her brother 2 weeks before this. I told him I didn't want to lose him. I gave him a CD. THIS was the first song on the CD. I wanted him to hear it. He said he would listen to it on the way home. Please note the lines: "time is not his friend, this might be my last chance to tell him that You love him". It was my last chance. My brother died 3 days later in a car accident. When I went to my mom's house that night, in her CD player, was the CD. THIS was the first song that played for me. God is real and He is with us. It is important that we share with the world Who He is. God bless you all. |

| Casting Crowns – Does Anybody Hear Her Lyrics | 17 years ago |
|
This song brought tears to my eyes the very first time I heard it. It made me think of my brother, who died in a car accident on April 28, 2006 (last year). I would like to begin by saying that there are two lines missing at the end of the lyrics to this song: HE IS RUNNING, A HUNDRED MILES AN HOUR IN THE WRONG DIRECTION. The reason I tell you all this - is because this song is speaking of PEOPLE who are lost and hurting and searching for the love of God - although they may not even know that THAT is what they are looking for. My brother was in so much pain, hurting inside. He was different and people judged him. That must have hurt. He was lost. He wanted God but couldn't seem to find Him. I know that he did when he went to be with Jesus... Unfortunately, people judge others - instead of opening their hearts to them. My brother was searching and this song makes me feel his pain and realize how very important it is to be there for those who are searching and to try and understand the pain they are feeling... Do not judge, but instead, open your hearts to people and help them see who Jesus is through your actions and the words you speak. |
