Rockin' My World...

Life seems to be flying by! Also, pictures take forever to upload to the blog, so it makes taking the time to blog something that more daunting. I will try to catch up soon, but for now, I just wanted to share the lyrics to a song. A couple of weeks ago, we had a Women's Night of Worship at our church. It was a perfect opportunity to stop amidst the business and just refocus our hearts on Christ. This song does that for me too... Emma and I sing it at the top of our lungs in the car, over and over. No other songs right now, since if I don't start it over, Emma will ask me to.

"God is With Us" (on the Casting Crowns Christmas CD)
The skies don't seem to be as dark as usual
The stars seem brighter then they've been before
Deep within I feel my soul a stirring
As though my hope has been restored
The shepherds say they've heard the voice of angels
Confirming rumors spread across the land
That a child protected well from Herod's anger
Is our Father's Son, and the son of man

Love is raining down on the world tonight
There's a presence here I can tell
God is in us, God is for us, God is with us
Emmanuel
He's the Savior we have been praying for
In our humble hearts He will dwell
God is in us, God is for us, God is with us
Emmanuel

I feel compelled to tell all who will listen
That peace on earth is not so out of reach
If we can find grace, mercy and forgiveness
He has come to save, He is all of these...

You're the Savior we have been praying for
In our humble hearts You will dwell
You are in us, You are for us, You are with us
Emmanuel
