Until the Whole World Hears

We sang this at Lift a couple weeks ago. Lift is the middle school program on Sunday mornings at Southeast. But it isn't just a program. Lift is our students advancing the Kingdom of Christ. It was just so cool to be a part of their praise & worship as we sang this song. They are truly an incredible group of kids. I thought I'd share this song with you. It should be something that we live by. I hope it impacts you as much as it has impacted us.

Lord, we... 

Want to be your hands and feet
Want to be a life that leads
To see you set the captive free
Until the whole world hears
and I pray that they will see more of you and less of me
Lord I want my life to be the song You sing
Until the whole world hears Lord we are calling out
Lifting your name up for all to hear the sound
Like voices in the wilderness we're crying out
as the day draws near
we'll sing until the whole world hears

In Honor of Valentines Day, of Love

I think it is so cool to serve a God who sends us just what we need to hear at just the right time. At a point in our relationship, God sent this song to me and it spoke directly into a situation that needed some direction. I thought I would share it with you. You can also hear it in the movie Fireproof which I highly recommend to anybody. Hope everyone had a very special Valentines Day!

Love is not a place
To come and go as we please
It's a house we enter in
Then commit to never leave

So lock the door behind you
Throw away the key
We'll work it out together
Let it bring us to our knees

Chorus:
Love is a shelter in a raging storm
Love is peace in the middle of a war
And if we try to leave, may God send angels to guard the door
No, love is not a fight but it's something worth fighting for

To some, love is a word
That they can fall into
But when they're falling out
Keeping that word is hard to do

Chorus:
Love is a shelter in a raging storm
Love is peace in the middle of a war
And if we try to leave, may God send angels to guard the door
No, love is not a fight but it's something worth fighting for

Love will come to save us
If we'll only call
He will ask nothing from us
But demand we give our all

Chorus:
Love is a shelter in a raging storm
Love is peace in the middle of a war
And if we try to leave, may God send angels to guard the door
No, love is not a fight but it's something worth fighting for

I will fight for you
Would you fight for me?
It's worth fighting for
