A dog barks when his master is attacked. I would be a coward if I saw that God’s truth is attacked and yet would remain silent.

I Think Someday I Will

One of my great wishes is to be able to sing. It just isn't happening, though. Not yet. Someday.

In the meantime, I listen and absorb, and lately the place I turn most for music - at least, the kind that turns my attentions where they belong, where I most want them to be focused - is YouTube. Unlikely, maybe, but I find myself there pretty much every day at least for some period of time, usually in the evening before crashing for the night.

I am finding some really amazing music videos there, music performed live and taped professionally, music that turns my thoughts to the things above, where Christ is, seated at the right of the Father. Most of what I find I most enjoy comes from one of two places: Ireland or Australia. In Ireland, it is primarily the music of Stuart Townend and a cadre of other worship leaders writing and leading worship there. In Australia, it's the ministry of Hillsong.

I listen to it alone all the time, and something just isn't right about that. There is a vicarious participation, I suppose, but, enjoyable and helpful as it may be, it still comes up lacking. So maybe I can get a few more folks that I know (some of you already have checked it out through links I've shared on Facebook, I know) to at least take a peak. To that end, I want to post/share a few of those videos here.

This is one I discovered just the other day. It's Hillsong. I'm not much of a music expert, but the sound strikes me as unique, and the lyrics significant. Hope you enjoy it as I have.
