more song lyrics...:)

sarah- i think that is a great idea--- and then we can make a cd of the songs that we have on our list!! (hint...so i won't have to download all of them, when ya'll could burn them for me!) haha. well kate, i have some song lyrics to post on here from bethany dillon....this song is so good and i love her lyrics!
"for my love"
Walk towards me
I want to hear
The heavens singing over you
When you breathe
And look at me
I want to be captured by you

Gaze into my eyes
And let me know you’d fight
Thousands, for my love
Slip your hand in mine
Ask me to dance with you tonight
Just ask me for my love

I want to hide
What’s deep in my eyes
I’m scared to be known by you
But when I turn my head
And see you there
I want to be pursued...

i really just like that she's honest...and if you take it from our perspective and our ultimate desire for Christ, it is so true that sometimes we're scared to truly be known by someone, even the Lord. we want to hide, but when we SEE Him, we long for His love and for His pursuing US. i love the chorus that just summarizes the romance and love story of God for His people and as women especially we want to know that the man will fight THOUSANDS for our love...and that GOD did fight for us to win over our hearts. ahhhh i just love it. every time i listen to this song i can't help but picture the scenario of Christ's death and that He pursues us, and the lyrics say, "slip your hand in mine, ask me to dance with you tonight, just ask me for my love"...i just picture Christ holding my hand and leading me and joyously dancing and asking for my LOVE. He wants ALL of us, He wants our hearts and every piece of them...not just little parts that we want to give Him, but EVERYTHING. it baffles me that He is gracious enough that while we run from Him and try to hide, He's right there. how blind and selfish we are to want anything more than Christ's offer.
last thing---as i was looking up the lyrics on google...i stumbled upon bethany and shane's wedding pics...AHHHHHH. haha so appropriately, why not look at their wedding pictures and wish that we were her?? jk. but really they are cute. love ya'll!
