Music

As Martin Luther, the great reformer, once said "music is to be praised second only to the Holy Scriptures."

Music is an outlet for the inner romance within us. Its a very effective vehicle for that romantic expression whether that be with a girl or our God or an ideal or thought. Its powerful, God-ordained and commanded in Scripture.

Here is a song that is being played a lot off of the band's myspace page:

Waking Ashland - I Am For You

Something’s very wrong here
Your heart has frozen over
And something’s very strange here
You've lost all desire

The comfort we create to prove we're something
But we're starving
Screaming in the night cause you want answers
From the one
And there is hope again

Don't give up you're not thinking
Don't give up just keep seeking (Oh yeah)
And I, I am for you
And I, I will love you
And I, I am for you
And I, I will save you

Come and take my face or forever I will walk alone
And all the same mistakes
Cause I know you, I deny you
Days go by and choices still remain forever
Right and wrong is black and white
The illusions of this world
And there is hope again

Don't give up, you're not thinking
Don't give up, just keep seeking (Oh yeah)
And I, I am for you
And I, I will love you
And I, I am for you
And I, I will save you

I send my self to you
Yes always and always
I send my love to you[x2]


And I, I am for you
And I, I will love you
And I, I am for you
And I, I will save you

You found today, found today, you found today, with your life today

A true piano rock band. Its a weird, but catchy sound. A little more emo than I typically embrace, but I can let that go.

God thank You for this gift of music.
