Music

Music is one of my passions and I have a song that just stuck out to me. I was listening to this song:

Eternal-Sanctus Real


I know this life I lead will pass away
Along with every other earthly thing
So I will set my heart on a higher plain
Where my treasure lies with You

And in this marriage of our hearts
There is no death do us part
For You are eternal
And I am eternally Yours

And I could never lose Your love to sickness
Oh I could never lose You to divorce
And there's no concept of abandonment
For I am safe within Your arms

And in this marriage of our hearts
There is no death do us part
For You are eternal
And I am eternally Yours
Oh I am eternally Yours
I am eternally Yours

(No abandonment)
(Safe within Your arms)

I never had enough until I found You
I never knew love until I met You
I never had enough until I found You
And now I have everything

And in this marriage of our hearts
There is no death do us part
For You are eternal
And I am eternally Yours
And I am eternally Yours
Oh I am eternally Yours

I could never lose You
No I will never lose You
I could never lose You

And this life will pass away
But You will never change
Oh this life will pass away
Oh but You will never change

And I thought of this scripture:
Ephesians 5:25-27

25Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her 26to make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word, 27and to present her to himself as a radiant church, without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish, but holy and blameless.

And then when I was look for that scripture...I stumbled on this scripture:


14
for it is light that makes everything visible. This is why it is said: "Wake up, O sleeper, rise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you."

And it reminded me of this song:


Sleeper-Wavorly
When I’m left alone
Down at the heart of it
My doubt was never a sign of strength

I wish I’d known that You were never far
I guess I would’ve known if I would’ve been awake

I’ve been dreaming life away

Sleeper, no deeper

Lift your eyes

Awake from dreaming

Sleeper, arise and you will find life
The answer is in Me

Every dream I knew was but a mere attempt

At what I truly thought would satisfy

Seeking out the truth

If real or make believe

My eyes wide open will really see

Love and life in all You say
Sleeper, arise and you will find life
You will find life when you give your life away

I love bands that write songs like this!

Everyone of you guys needs to get We Need Each other by Sanctus Real. It is such a good word filled CD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You are right! When you focus on the eternal instead of the temporal, or natural, you'll always be focused on the right thing!
