This has been on my mind for a while, and I've finally decided to do it. For those of you on Cleanplace, this is kind of like Yuki's song thing, but not quite. I'll be posting my favorite songs and maybe some thoughts to go with them. :D I will try to post a new song every day or every other day, whichever I have time for at the moment. :P And, no, they will not usually be this long. :P

Tomorrow hopefully: a tribute to the guys. :D

Since we just finished up with Thanksgiving, I thought this song would be relevant. It reminds us of what it truly means to have gratitude and thankfulness, and how God makes something good come from every situation, even the ones that seem bad.

"Gratitude"
by Nichole Nordeman

Send some rain, would You send some rain?
'Cause the earth is dry and needs to drink again
And the sun is high and we are sinking in the shade
Would You send a cloud, thunder long and loud?
Let the sky grow black and send some mercy down
Surely You can see that we are thirsty and afraid
But maybe not, not today
Maybe You'll provide in other ways
And if that's the case...

We'll give thanks to You with gratitude
For lessons learned in how to thirst for You
How to bless the very sun that warms our face
If You never send us rain

Daily bread, give us daily bread
Bless our bodies, keep our children fed
Fill our cups, then fill them up again tonight
Wrap us up
And warm us through
Tucked away beneath our sturdy roofs
Let us slumber safe from danger's view this time
Or maybe not, not today
Maybe You'll provide in other ways
And if that's the case...

We'll give thanks to You
With gratitude
A lesson learned to hunger after You
That a starry sky offers a better view if no roof is overheard
And if we never taste that bread

Oh, the differences that often are between
Everything we want and what we really need

So grant us peace, Jesus, grant us peace
Move our hearts to hear a single beat
Between alibis and enemies tonight
Or maybe not, not today
Peace might be another world away
And if that's the case...

We'll give thanks to You
With gratitude
For lessons learned in how to trust in You
That we are blessed beyond what we could ever dream
In abundance or in need
And if You never grant us peace

But Jesus, would You please...

This song is dedicated to Dusty, Elly, SRG, and all the other guys. Thanks for being the guys God made you to be! :D

"The Guy Song"
by BarlowGirl

Where would we be today if no man ever had strength to believe
If no man had a vision further than their eyes could ever see
They are the ones who paved the way
To show you how you have been made for more

This is your day don't let them take it away
This is your day don't let them take it
This is your day don't let them get in your way
This is your day so come on take it take your day

This world distracts you lies to you and hopes to keep you from your call
But don't be fooled 'cause don't you see that you can stand up to it all
You're unashamed, you're unafraid to
To give up your life to serve the One who's called you

This is your day don't let them take it away
This is your day don't let them take it
This is your day don't let them get in your way
This is your day so come on take it take your day

Here's a comforting song reminding us that no matter what we've done, God loves us and wants to show us His powerful forgiveness and grace. Grace- getting what we don't deserve. :D

"The Beauty of Grace"
by Krystal Meyers

Tell me why'd you run?
You say you're so ashamed
Bruised and broken
Thought if I figured out the mess you made
Then I'd leave

But anywhere you are
Is never too far away
There's freedom from your scars
The mistakes that you've made
Forgiven
The memories erased
Baby, that's the beauty of grace

Tell me what is love?
I'll never hold you to
The things you may have done
You say you want new life
In My arms there's mercy

But anywhere you are
Is never too far away
There's freedom from your scars
The mistakes that you've made
Forgiven
The memories erased
Baby, that's the beauty of grace

So blow a kiss goodbye
To all the pain you hide

This is a song I end up singing to myself often. Every time I feel alone, this song reminds that God is with me and loves me, even if I sometimes can't feel Him.

"I Believe In Love"
by BarlowGirl

How long will my prayers seem unanswered
Is there still faith in me to reach the end
I'm feeling doubt I'm losing faith
But giving up would cost me everything

So I'll stand in the pain and the silence
And I'll speak to the dark night

I believe in the sun even when it's not shining
I believe in love even when I don't feel it
And I believe in God even when He is silent
And I, I believe

Though I can't see my story's ending
That doesn't mean the dark night has no end
It's only here that I find faith
And learn to trust the One Who writes my days

So I'll stand in the pain and the silence
And I'll speak to the dark night

I believe in the sun even when it's not shining
I believe in love even when I don't feel it
And I believe in God even when He is silent
And I, I believe

No dark can consume Light
No death greater than this life
We are not forgotten
Hope is found when we say

Even when He is silent

I believe in the sun even when it's not shining
I believe in love even when I don't feel it
And I believe in God even when He is silent
And I, I believe
