Walk On The Water by Britt Nicole

This song is currently in HEAVY rotation. It's on my playlist and I find it very encouraging.
 These are the lyrics

You look around, staring back at you
Another wave of doubt, will it pull you under? You wonder
What if I'm overtaken? What if I never make it?
What if no one's there? Will You hear my prayer?

When you take that first step into the unknown
You know that He won't let you go

So what are you waiting for? What do you have to lose?
Your insecurities, they try to hold to you
But you know you're made for more, so don't be afraid to move
Your faith is all it takes, and you can walk on the water, too

So get out, and let your fear fall to the ground
No time to waste, don't wait, and don't you turn around and miss out
Everything you were made for, I know you're not sure
So you play it safe, you try to run away

If you take that first step into the unknown
He won't let you go

So what are you waiting for? What do you have to lose?
Your insecurities, they try to hold to you
But you know you're made for more, so don't be afraid to move
Your faith is all it takes, and you can walk on the water, too

Step out, even when it's storming
Step out, even when you're broken
Step out, even when your heart is telling you
Telling you to give up
Step out, when your hope is stolen
Step out, you can't see where you're going
You don't have to be afraid
So what are you waiting, what are you waiting for?

So what are you waiting for? What do you have to lose?
Your insecurities try to hold to you
You know you're made for more, so don't be afraid to move
Your faith is all it takes, and you can walk on the water
Walk on the water, too

Love All Over Me

So I was riding in the car with my Aunt and on the radio, popular singer, Monica's song began to play. The song is called Love All Over Me and after listening closely I noticed that this song was a lot deeper than most would perceive it to be. She sings passionately about a love interest. Her words speak of a transformation in her as a result of this new found love. Listening intently I began to analyze. I thought "wow this is almost idolatry of some dude" and " seriously? he touched your heart and now it beats?..wait a minute." As I listened scripture was brought to my remembrance and I began to look at this song as one of worship to God. Its so interesting that a lot of these secular artists express the love that they long for. One that's deep, true and unconditional. One that can only come from the Father. Its as if we know who we need and long for but we place our affections on people and things of this world. If you only knew how much God loves us and how intimate he wants to be with each of us. Nothing compares.

Here are some lyrics (I inserted some scriptures references that correlate)

Before your love baby I was lonely
 filled deep with pain til you took it from me
 you showered me with a new beginning now I'm clean, (2 Corinthians 5:17, Ezekiel 36:36)
Took me by surprise when you ran up on me,
 I came to life baby (Father lol) in that moment (Ephesians 2:4-5)
you put your hands on my heart and baby now it beats (Ezekiel 36:26)

Hook:
I got love all over me,
baby you touch every part of me
(Ooh) I got love all over me and I don't wanna get it off
I'm completely covered up in your love (Psalm 36:7)


God your are so awesome. Thank you for your amazing and unfailing love!!!

"Just Like Water" by Lauryn Hill

[Verse 1]
Moving down the streams of my lifetime
Pulls the fascination in my sleeve
Cooling off the fire of my longing
Boiling off my cold within his heat
Melting down the walls of inhibition
Evaporating all of my fears
Baptizing me into complete submission
Dissolving my condition with his tears

[Chorus]
He's just like the water
I ain't felt this way in years
He's just like the water
I ain't felt this way in years

[Verse 2]
Coursing through my senses, he's prevailing
Floating through the space of my design
Drowning me to find my inside sailing
Drinking in the mainstream of his mind
Filling up the cup of my emotions
Spilling over into all I do
If I only I could get lost in his ocean
Surviving on the thought of loving you

[Chorus]
He's just like the water
I ain't felt this way in years
He's just like the water, the water
I ain't felt this way in years

[Verse 3]
Bathing in the fountain of his essence
He causes my expression to remain
Humbled on a mountain by his presence
Washing my intentions with his name
Sealing off the floodgates of his passions
Saving all his liquid for his own
Moisturizing me to satisfaction
In my imagination? No no!
He's pouring out his soul to me for hours and hours
Drawing out my nature with his hands
Yearning I'm so thirsty for his power
Burning to be worthy of his land

[Chorus]
He's just like the water
I ain't felt this way in years
He's just like the water
I ain't felt this way in years

[Ad Libs Remainder]
Cleaning me
He's purging me
And moving me around
He's bathing me
And he's claiming me
And moving me around
Around and around and around
And around
Watching me, claiming me
Moving me around
He's purging me
He's been cleaning me
And moving me around
And around



So in Love with God. The lyrics are so deep

The Portrait by Da Truth

I really like this song it's deep so here are the lyrics....

[Verse 1:]Was Christ really buried
�is there a chance That He really married Mary and fled over to France Did they really find His bones with a fine tooth comb Or did He walk out of His tomb to His throne Was He God
�was He not Was He alive when they dropped Him in a tomb Did He swoon
�was He moved Was He removed by delusional dudes that refused to believe in the truth Were they fools Were the disciples hallucinating was the truth evaded 'Cause they wanted to boost His ratings
Did the Catholic church from the Vatican Work at keeping the bag of dirt under the rug Was he God from above If He was do you blink, do you shrug, do you hate do you love [x2]
[Hook:]Christ on the poster
Christ of the culture
Christ on the stain glass
Christ of the future
Christ on the video
Christ on the radio
The Christ of Da Vinci What does he really know
Christ on award shows Christ that Lord knows Christ that's sure to come back in His war clothes
In which Christ do you believe You gotta know before you leave
[Verse 2:]Yes he did arrive, yes He was alive
No�he wasn't married never had any wives
Yes�He did rise, days after He died What can I say�yes He is God!
From the womb to the tomb To His throne nobody in Rome could hold on to His bones
'Cause there were no bones to be held though His bones were beheld
Who would have known It was Jehov on the DL,
providing forgiveness Our lives are offensive
He died to put you and I in a friendship with himself
Pain is felt When the glorious gospel is exchanged for wealth
Forget about how the spades were dealt And think about how you measure up when weighed on the scale
One Lord One faith I plug
One Lord One Christ, one judge
[Hook]
