WhiteHeart Wednesday

NOTE: I had a lot of difficulty understanding the words to this song. So, the lyrics may be woefully inaccurate, and I would greatly appreciate any help that you could provide.


Lovers & Dreamers
WhiteHeart

Let’s get back to the matter
So it’s gonna be the Lamb
That’s the world
It’s gonna be
Gonna ruin it anyway they can

So easy talkin’ about it
That they stabbed Him to the air
But our lives
It’s a wellsmith
Before the ever just
The sin is gain

You can take your tears and stand
But what we really need are
Lovers and dreamers
Lovers in the Light
We need lovers and dreamers
Dreamers with Heavenly sight
We need lovers

It isn’t any wonder
The dumb don’t listen at all
We lost the color
In the picture
We drew the picture way too small
So paint a new horizon
See the world is based on you
But all in all
Only the vision
You got a lot of livin’
Livin’ to do

You can take your tears and stand
But what we need are
Lovers and Dreamers
Lovers of the Light
We need lovers and dreamers
Dreamers with Heavenly sight

People to follow
Care enough for tomorrow
Leaders
Who will follow
The Savior
Who want to carry the fight

So it’s gonna be the Lamb
And what we really need are
Lovers and dreamers
Lovers of the Light
We need lovers
That dream of love
Dreamers with Heavenly sight
We need lovers and dreamers
Lovers of the Light
We need lovers and dreamers
Dreamers with Heavenly sight
We need lovers

I Hadn't Asked

The LORD says, “I was ready to respond, but no one asked for help. I was ready to be found, but no one was looking for me. I said, ‘Here I am, here I am!’ to a nation that did not call on my name.” {Isaiah 65:1 NLT}

I subscribe to a daily devotional through [HighCalling.org], which is the parent organization for [HighCallingBlogs.com], and the one for [today] hit me especially hard. For I have been “under attack” {2 Cor. 12:7-10} even worse than usual for quite some time now, and it had never occurred to me that I had not really asked for deliverance yet.

Oh yes, I was certainly expecting MY Heavenly Father to come to my rescue, but this is not the same as actually asking Him to. For He delights in having a personal relationship with His children by faith, and I can be as guilty as anyone at times of taking Him for granted.

To be more specific about the details involved in this recent “attack,” I have had more difficulty sleeping than usual for me for well over a week. Granted, I normally wake up feeling worse than I did before going to sleep, but actually going to sleep affords me at least some “rest” in the form of being somewhat less aware of how bad I physically feel for a certain amount of time, which is greatly appreciated by a wimp like me.

Furthermore, feelings of being a miserable failure at helping to introduce MY Heavenly Father to those who do not really know Him have become ever increasingly more intense. Be assured that I was wanting to end it all again, and suffering from the anguish over both not being able to righteously do so and wanting to.

Then I saw the message being given to me through [Dr. Roberts] early this morning, and it hit me squarely between the eyes. For I had directed a lot of anger towards MY Heavenly Father, but I had not really asked Him for help—humbly or otherwise.

So, I did, and I can tell you that I actually slept today. Oh yes, I woke up feeling like I have never slept in my entire life, but I was totally unaware of hurting at all for several hours, and that is something that I am most thankful for.

Furthermore, the feelings of being a miserable failure at helping to introduce MY Heavenly Father to those who do not really know Him have subsided somewhat. Hence, this pitiful attempt to glorify His name.

Yes, it can all be explained physiologically or psychologically, but I want to believe that He has come to my rescue once again. What do you want to believe?

Toby Mac - This Christmas


Link: [On YouTube]

This Christmas (Joy To The World)
Toby Mac
Joy to the world
Let Heaven and nature sing
Let Heaven and nature sing

Now Johnny never got his wish on December 25th
That’s what he said when he left the orphange
Nine years old
But Johnny was an old soul
Gonna spend his first Christmas in a real home

Showed me a picture that he drew the night before
Was a picture of a man standin’ outside a door
I asked him who it was
And he said someone I only see in dreams
Comforts me when I cry myself to sleep

Father of the fatherless
Be with your sons and daughters
This Christmas
This Christmas

Believe in angels?
Johnny asked me starin’ at the sky
I said I do
And saw a sparkle in his eye
Big brother for the weekend respondin’ to the season
Took the chance that givin’s better than receivin’
Two nights
A new family
Some holiday cheer
We laughed and sang
Came on a midnight clear
We gave
Received
And as we headed to close
We looked to the heavens and it started to snow
Down blessings

Father of the fatherless
Be with your sons and daughters
This Christmas

You ain’t livin’ ‘til you choose to give
Love and joy and peace to one of His

Father let us not forget
The children who are all alone
This Chrismas

You ain’t livin’ ‘til you choose to give
You ain’t livin’ ‘til you choose to give

Religion
That God
Our Father
Accepts as pure
And faultless
Is this
To look after orphans
And widows
In their distress
Merry Christmas everyone

Joy to the world
The Lord is come
Let Heaven and nature sing
Let Heaven and nature sing
Let Heaven and nature sing
Let Heaven and nature sing

Believe in angels?
Johnny asked me starin’ at the sky
I said I do
And saw a sparkle in his eye
Nine years old
But Johnny was an old soul
Gonna spend his next Christmas in a real home

Father of the fatherless
Be with your sons and daughters
This Christmas

You ain’t livin’ ‘til you choose to give
Love and joy and peace to one of His

Father let us not forget
The children who are all alone
This Christmas

You ain’t livin’ ‘til you choose to give
You ain’t livin’ ‘til you choose to give

Father of the fatherless
Be with your sons and daughters
This Christmas

Let Heaven and nature sing
Let Heaven and nature sing

Father let us not forget
The children who are all alone
This Christmas

You ain’t livin’ ‘til you choose to give
You ain’t livin’ ‘til you choose to give

You ain’t livin’
You ain’t livin’

Oh Father
This Christmas

Let Heaven and nature sing
Let Heaven and nature sing

You ain’t livin’
You ain’t livin’

Don’t leave me all alone
This Christmas

Merry Christmas everyone

The Little Drummer Boy
WhiteHeart
Come they told me
Pa rumpa pum pum
A new born King to see
Pa rumpa pum pum
Our finest gifts we bring
Pa rumpa pum pum
To set before the King
Pa rumpa pum pum
Rumpa pum pum
Rumpa pum pum

So to honor Him
Pa rumpa pum pum
When we come

Little Baby
Pa rumpa pum pum
I am a poor boy too
Pa rumpa pum pum
I have no gift to bring
Pa rumpa pum pum
That’s fit to give a King
Pa rumpa pum pum
Rumpa pum pum
Rumpa pum pum

Shall I play for you
Pa rumpa pum pum
On my drum

On my drum
I’ll play for you

Mary nodded
Pa rumpa pum pum
The ox and lamb kept time
Pa rumpa pum pum
I played my drum for Him
Pa rumpa pum pum
I played my best for Him
Pa rumpa pum pum
Rumpa pum pum
Rumpa pum pum

Then He smiled at me
Pa rumpa pum pum
Me and my drum
Me and my drum
Me and my drum
Me and my drum

It Could Have Been You
WhiteHeart

Could have been this evening light
Melancholy sky
I’ve got memories of my life
In my heart and eyes
Could have been the best
Could have been the worst of times
The meaning of these images keeps turning in my mind
Random feelings?
Or sacred meanings?

Could have been just the hand of fate
Could have been time just didn’t wait
Thought it all was a big mistake
But now I’m seeing
Believing
That through all of my life
It could have been you

Was it you?

Were they just wasted moments filled with too much pain?
Or the flash and the thunder of some cleansing rain?
Hurtful strangers?
Or the hand of angels?

Could have been just the hand of fate
Could have been time just didn’t wait
Thought it all was a big mistake
But now I’m seeing
Believing
That through all of my life
It could have been you

Could have been

How can your knowing eyes
See so far beyond these days?
How can I ever learn to wait
For the wisdom of your ways?

But I’m seeing
Believing
That through all of my life
Yes through all of my life
It could have been you

Loving you

Could have been you

Raging Of The Moon
WhiteHeart

Thank God the world’s been saved
Marx is in his grave
The hammer and sickle lie broken on the ground

If we’re through with history
Then why this misery?
All the world was thrilling to the sound
When the wall came crashing down

So tell me what I can’t explain
This howling deep within my veins
Is it the pulling of some secret tide?

It’s the raging
The raging of the moon
Oh we must awaken
From the raging of the moon

See the path we take
See the bed we make
Oh let the Spirit open up our eyes
We get comfortable with lies

The magic’s at an end
The line’s been crossed again
The truth keeps getting further from our lives
It’s all been diguised

The moon in full and red as wine
A symbol of our fallen times
When will the stars come crashing down from our eyes?

It’s the raging
The raging of the moon
Oh we must awaken
From the raging of the moon
Are we shaken?
For the signs are coming true
Oh we must awaken
From the raging of the moon

It’s the raging
The raging of the moon
Oh we must awaken
From the raging of the moon
Oh we must awaken
From the rage

Ritual
WhiteHeart

Hush boy
Oh it’s not polite
To ask if what I’m doing is right
I don’t see why it matters to you
I just do what I do
What I do
What I do
It’s my ritual

From a long long line of next of kin
No one knows how it all began
It’s not for me to understand
I just do it again and again
It’s my ritual

Oh it’s a trend
Oh don’t you bend
Cue it up again
Numb to the beat
Shuffle your feet
I can’t stand the heat

So dance
Dance
Dance
Dance to the Spiritual
Chance
Chance
Take a chance
Oh break the ritual
Ritual

It’s habitual
But I’m no longer comfortable
Just to let life flow and flow
Into nothing

Just can’t take it no more
Leave my mind in a jar by the door
I don’t care who’s done this before
It ain’t cool
We’re all fools
We’re all mindless bores in our ritual

Oh smash the trend
Turn around the bend
Never again
Move to the beat
Motivate your feet
I wanna take the heat

So dance
Dance
Dance
Dance to the Spiritual
Chance
Chance
Take a chance
Oh and break the ritual
So dance
Dance
Dance
Dance to the Spiritual
Chance
Chance
Take a chance
Come on and break the ritual
Ritual

Ooh
Dance
Dance
Dance
Dance to the Spiritual
Chance
Chance
Chance
Chance
Take a chance
Oh and break the ritual
Dance
Dance
Dance
Oh to the Spiritual
Chance
Chance
Take a chance
Oh and break the ritual

Oh break the ritual
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh
Oh you’ll break the ritual

Oh take your chance
Oh and break the ritual
Ooh
Ritual
Oh
Oh
Oh
Ooh Spiritual
Chance
Chance
And break the ritual
Oh and break the ritual
