Music Monday: Whatever you’re doing…

Leave a comment

This morning I’m road tripping to a monastery to spend a week on retreat. Sanctus Real’s “Whatever you’re doing” seemed like a very appropriate song for this week’s Music Monday…

It’s time for healing time to move on
It’s time to fix what’s been broken too long
Time make right what has been wrong
It’s time to find my way to where I belong
There’s a wave that’s crashing over me
All I can do is surrender

[Chorus]

Whatever you’re doing inside of me
It feels like chaos somehow there’s peace
It’s hard to surrender to what I can’t see
but I’m giving in to something heavenly

Time for a milestone
Time to begin again
Revaluate who I really am
Am I doing everything to follow your will
or just climbing aimlessly over these hills
So show me what it is you want from me
I give everything I surrender…
To…

[Chorus]

Time to face up
Clean this old house
Time to breathe in and let everything out
That I’ve wanted to say for so many years
Time to to release all my held back tears

[Chorus]

It’s time to face up
Clean this old house
Time breathe in and let everything out

Music Monday: Pray

Leave a comment

One of my new favourites, Sanctus Real’s song “Pray”:

VERSE 1
I bow my head to pray, I don’t know what to say
I’m not sure how to fix the things I’m dealing with
I’m in a desperate place, I need to share the weight
But I just don’t know how, to let it all pour out
Though I’m silent, my heart is crying
Cause I was made to come to You

CHORUS
So I pray
God I need You more than words can say
Right here in this moment
You know my heart, You know my need
You know every part of me
So even if it’s just to speak Your name
I’m gonna pray

VERSE 2
I failed to find the time, but You’ve been calling out
I let the days go by as if I could live without
But it’s gotta be here now, I won’t be pulled away
Cause it’s just You and I, so let the world around us fade

BRIDGE
(Father) Will You meet me here right now?
(Father) I surrender, lay it down
(Father) And every time I close my eyes
I know that I was made
To lift my hands and pray
I lift my hands and pray

You know my heart, You know my need
And every single part of me
So even if it’s just to speak Your name
I’m gonna pray x2

You know my heart, You know my need
You know every part of me
More than words, You are my life
Take it as an offering
