Music Monday: The Lion and the Lamb

We’re kicking off the year with one of my favourite bands and one who has a fantastic name, “Big Daddy Weave”. This is “The Lion and the Lamb”:

He’s coming on the clouds, kings and kingdoms will bow down
And every chain will break, as broken hearts declare His praise
Who can stop the Lord Almighty?

Our God is the Lion, the Lion of Judah
He’s roaring with power and fighting our battles
And every knee will bow before You
Our God is the Lamb, the Lamb that was slain
For the sin of the world, His blood breaks the chains
And every knee will bow before the Lion and the Lamb
Oh every knee will bow before the Lion and the Lamb

So open up the gates, make way before the King of kings
Our God who calls the saved is here to set the captives free
Who can stop the Lord Almighty?

Music Monday: My Story

So earlier this year I decided to give Country music a bit of a break and tuned my car’s radio to the local Christian music station. Initially I wasn’t very impressed, but over the months I’ve found quite a few diamonds among the rough. One of them was by a band I hadn’t heard from in years, the wonderfully named “Big Daddy Weave”. Today’s song is “My Story”…

If I told you my story…you would hear hope that wouldn’t let go
If I told you my story…you would hear love that never gave up
If I told you my story…you would hear life but it wasn’t mine

If I should speak then let it be…

…of the grace that is greater than all my sin
…of when justice was served and where mercy wins
…of the kindness of Jesus that draws me in
…to tell you my story is to tell of Him

If I told you my story…you would hear victory over the enemy
If told you my story…you would hear freedom that was won for me
If I told you my story…you would hear life overcome the grave

If I should speak then let it be…

This is my story this is my song praising my Savior all the day long
