So here I am a full-time graduate student. To say the least, I am over whelmed. I feel like I am consistently drowning in a sea of readings. With that being said, I have not had a lot of time to devote to what I love. I don't play music, I don't sing, I in turn don't have the fellowship of the people that I play music with. It's tough. Music has always been a conduit to connect my heart to others. Not necessarily worship but instead an expression of grievances, joys, worries, and passions. This past month has been hard. People that I've connected with aren't here. It brings me to a near weeping state. I guess you could equate it to soldiers in the trenches of WWII. Serving together through triumphs and defeats. I miss my band mates. With that being said, I have to keep on keepin' on! According to Joe Dirt, "Life's a garden...Dig It!"
I think every musician understands the importance of this bond. In order to get through this time, I think I will take some time to evaluate who I am as a musician. Who am I as a worship leader? Am I worthy to lead others in the worship of the one true God? I think it is important for me to continue to keep writing. Whether it is blogging or writing music, it is important to chronicle what God is showing me. So here is a new set of lyrics I've been working on. I haven't spent much time putting riffs or drum beats to this but the lyrics speak of my heart and my relationship with God.
You Are
I took your hand and you guided me
I called your name at night and you heard me
I searched for a place of rest and you covered me
I reached as I lost my step and you carried me
You are the one I can trust with everything
You are the one who loves me for me
You are the one told of long, long ago
You are the one who was slain to save me
I was cold and you clothed me
I was prideful and you became weak
I was filthy and you made me clean
I was greedy and you came for more than just me
Isaiah 4:6
It will be a shelter and shade from the heat of the day, and a refuge and hiding place from the storm and rain.
Love and Care,
Christian
