Hillsong United

I have been listening to a lot of music on Youtube lately because sadly Pandora does not work overseas 😦

One of the neat functions of youtube, is that you can listen to an entire playlist from a musician (etc.). I happened upon this by accident & it’s unlikely that I could actually do it on purpose if I tried. 🙂 I was able to find an awesome song through this unconventional method of music listening. It’s by Hillsong United & it’s called ‘You Deserve’. Who knows maybe we’re already singing this at the Stone? 🙂

I find that when I’m feeling down, lonely or homesick,  this type of music always raises my spirits. As the song says, I must remember that “In the darkness, God’s light shines through!”

Hope you enjoy it as much as I do! Here are the lyrics:

What is this love given to us
That saved my life through selfless sacrifice
Although we fail the cross prevails
Forgiveness stands
You take me back again

You’ve shown me life
You’ve opened my eyes
So I give You my praise
Yeah I give You my all
You’ve shown me life
You’ve opened my eyes
To the truth that there’s no greater love

Now in the darkness God’s light shines
Christ forever glorified
So come on come on sing out to God
Now with all we’ve got
We live for You our God

Salvation’s strong in Christ alone
The Saviour King alone in victory
I step aside give You my life
For You to move do what You want to do

I can’t imagine a life without You without You
‘Cause it’s all for You
Yeah it’s all for You
God
