Then Sings My Soul Saturday






Stumbled across this one this week and fell in love with it! Listen to the words. You'll love it too!

Have a blessed weekend!

Amy




These are the lives of the rearranged
Scattered souls who've been displaced
Nowhere else to turn
Like Bethlehem we have packed the place
Human need fills ever space
No room at the inn

Still God found a corner,
Made a bed down in the hay
Could he reappear, make his advent here
Will he still draw near today?

My world is crying,
Crying for a Christmas
Some way to know for sure --
That our God is with us
We could all use a sign
A little glimpse of divine
For a world that still cries for Christmas

Feeding trough on a dirty floor
Unimpressive welcome for
God's Almighty Son
Are we as blind to incarnation
Daily proof of our salvation
Love's already come

We are not abandoned,
All alone in our despair
He who once came down, he can still be found
Every when and everywhere

My world is crying,
Crying for a Christmas
Some way to know for sure --
That our God is with us
Once a baby so small
Grew to die for us all
For a world that still cries for Christmas.

Jesus you are here, Jesus you are now
Jesus you are here, Jesus you are now

My world is crying,
Crying for a Christmas
Some way to know for sure --
That our God is with us
We can all be the sign
That his love is alive
For a world that still cries for Christmas

Then Signs My Soul Saturday



Wow, I can't believe it is already December! This year has really disappeared. For the past few years, I have said I was going to be done with everything for the holidays early so I could enjoy the Christmas season and not feel so rushed and crazy. I keep telling myself to focus on the reason we celebrate Christmas, but somehow I still seem to get trapped in the craziness that most have made of Christmas. I'm praying I will stop feeling so overwhelmed and pressured by the shopping, decorating, baking etc. and just focus on Him this holiday season. My focus for December is peace. This song makes me feel peaceful! I love it. I hope you enjoy it too!





Sweet Blessings,
Amy

Then Signs My Soul Saturday


We sang this chorus Sunday at church and it's been running through my mind all week. Very appropriate for the season. Hope you all had a wonderful Thanksgiving!!

I'm most thankful for Him loving and setting me free, thankful He gave His life just for me!

Have a blessed weekend!!

Then Signs My Soul Saturday


Thanks to Carol last week for hosting. I was in New Mexico at the CLASS Christian Writers Conference and had no internet or phone service! It was fun but I'm glad to be home!

Love Jeremy Camp and this week's song. Hope you do too!

I'm so thankful that Jesus Saves!

Then Sings My Soul Saturday


Howdy friends! It's Carol from sheep to the right. Amy is in New Mexico at a writer's conference and asked me to step in for Then Sings My Soul. I was happy to oblige.

I've chosen the theme song to The Lone Ranger (William Tell). Amy and I are usually joined at the hip, so I tease that we are The Lone Ranger and Tonto. Well, this week she truly is the "lone" ranger, since she left Tonto back in Georgia.

I can't wait until Sunday until she gallops back home again! Enjoy!

Tonto a.k.a. Carol

Then Sings My Soul Saturday - Strong Enough


November is National Epilepsy Awareness Month. I hope to post some more information and links to some epilepsy websites for you this month and hopefully post the video from the interview I did recently in New York for Women Succeeding with Epilepsy.

I thought this song by Matthew West was appropriate for how I feel sometimes when Spencer's seizures are out of control. Whatever your circumstance, know that He is strong enough for both of you.

I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. Philippians 4:13






You must
You must think I'm strong
To give me what I'm going through

Well, forgive me
Forgive me if I'm wrong
But this looks like more than I can do
On my own

I know I'm not strong enough to be
everything that I'm supposed to be
I give up
I'm not stong enough
Hands of mercy won't you cover me
Lord right now I'm asking you to be
Strong enough
Strong enough
For the both of us

Well, maybe
Maybe that's the point
To reach the point of giving up

Cause when I'm finally
Finally at rock bottom
Well, that's when I start looking up
And reaching out

I know I'm not strong enough to be
Everything that I'm supposed to be
I give up
I'm not stong enough
Hands of mercy won't you cover me
Lord right now I'm asking you to be
Strong enough

Hope you have a blessed weekend!
Amy
