Anthem for the Week - April 26
Some people may have noticed that a lot of the music I listen to is Christian or has Christian overtones and for good reason. I like it and I’m a Christian. I often go for long periods of times without going to church and there are often many reasons this happens. But I also go years and years where I go to church on Sunday morning and evening and Wednesday evening (or whatever additional time the church I’m attending happens to have services on). Whatever the reasons I have for not going to church, it’s songs like this that make me take time to reflect on God and why I believe the things I do. Those beliefs aren’t easy things to explain since you have to take a leap of faith, but I find comfort in God and for a pessimist that is something I can look to, feel less pessimistic, and, well, it makes me feel Alive.
Starfield - “Alive In This Moment”
It’s been so long since I have met You here
Since I have said these words or cried these tears
And like a child would come I run into our secret place
And as the music fades, the tears are rolling down my face
I am alive in this moment
In this moment I am found
I am alive in this moment
In this moment I belong
It’s been so long since I have met You here
Since I have heard You speak or let You near
And like a wayward son I’ve come with nothing left to hide
Here in this moment I have come to offer up my life
Here only one fire burns, it burns
Here only one melody is heard
Once again for the very first time
My eyes are opening
