in my heart

For some reason this piece was in my mind and i didnt know what album it was from, or who wrote it just the tune, so frantic i was trying to find the tune until somehow i kind of figured it has to be yiruma. I'm in the mood for instrumental/sentimental music now. This is my belief by Yiruma and i love it.

Father and Friend

I love this.

keep singing

Lately this song has been on my heart. I think i've had it for a few years now but only now its really jumped out. Keep Singing by Mercyme

Another rainy day
I can't recall having sunshine on my face
All I feel is pain
All I wanna do is walk out of this place
But when I am stuck and I can't move
When I don't know what I should do
When I wonder if I'll ever make it through

I gotta keep singing
I gotta keep praising Your name
Your the one that's keeping my heart beating
I gotta keep singing
I gotta keep praising Your name
That's the only way that I'll find healing

Can I climb up in Your lap
I don't wanna leave
Jesus sing over me
I gotta keep singing

Can I climb up in Your lap
I don't wanna leave
Jesus sing over me
I gotta keep singing

Oh You're everything I need
And I gotta keep singing

-ONWARD

closer

Hehe my new favourite song.

Closer- jars of clay

Well you thought you let go, but you’re still hanging on
Mother earth’s slowing down, she’s still spinning around
And we-eee, are gettin dizzy

I’ll drop out of the race for more personal space
Cuz the rocket’s we're in, get’s so cold and I miss your skin
that’s just how I’m feelin.

If you need more love, well you’ve got to get close to me
If you want my love, well you’ve got to get closer to me

No unreachable itch, if you hemorrhage I’ll stitch
You are tears, I’m a cheek, I’m a pail on your boat with slow leaks
out to sea for weeks

If you want my love, well you’ve got to get close to me
If you need my love, well you’ve got to get closer to me
Oh, if you want my love

I don’t understand why we can’t get close enough
I want your kite strings tangled in my trees all wrapped up
I don’t understand why we can’t get close enough
I’ll be the comets that are fallin’ from the sky you light up…light up

You’re my shirt, I an arm
I’m the tick, you’re the bomb
You’re the L and the V, I’m the O and the E, and we…
Am I speaking clearly?

If you want my love, well you’ve got to get close to me
Ooh, if you want my love…

I don’t understand why we can’t get close enough
I want your kite strings tangled in my trees all wrapped up
I don’t understand why we can’t get close enough
I’ll be the comets that are fallin from the sky you light up

Because I don’t understand why we can’t get close enough
I’ll miss the shivers in my spine every time that we touch.

worlds apart

I've had this song for a long time now but it never hit me as much as it did today. Went to my blog and it was singing and made me listen again and again, worlds apart by jars of clay.

a million parachutes

My first contact with sixpence none the richer was back in Naija (Nigeria). There was this American tv station, tbn that showed christian music videos on sundays and thats where i first heard breathe your name and it instantly became one of my favourite songs and still is.

I like the way leigh nash, the lead singer sings. Her voice gives the band their unique distinction. I could listen to sixpence all day long and not get tired of them. You know some songs or albums when you listen to it too long you get tired of them? It doesn't happen with this band well at least not for me.

Whats with the name?
Well they get their name from C.S. Lewis' book Mere Christianity:

Every faculty you have, your power of thinking or of moving your limbs from moment to moment, is given to you by God. If you devoted every moment of your whole life exclusively to His service you could not give Him anything that was not in a sense His own already. So that when we talk of a man doing anything for God or giving anything to God, I will tell you what it is really like. It is like a small child going to his father and saying, 'Daddy, give me sixpence to buy you a birthday present.' Of course, the father does, and he is pleased with the child's present. It is all very nice and proper, but only an idiot would think that the father is sixpence to the good on the transaction. When a man has made these two discoveries, God can really get to work. It is after this that real life begins. (source)

My love for the band will not be complete without having at least one of their albums, their best of to be precise and leigh nash's solo album blue on blue.

I discovered a song i've not listened to before a few minutes ago on youtube and instantly liked it. While its not yet one of my favourite songs I really do like it. So here's a million parachutes



Like a million parachutes
The snow's coming down
I'll lock up the front door
And turn down the lights
I see them descend
Like a million parachutes
Small men on a mission

I miss the warmth
And I miss the sun
I miss the ocean
I miss everyone
And I miss the bridges
That span across the bay
Tonight, it seems like ages ago

Like a million parachutes
the snow still falls
The dogs are asleep now
There's no one to call
I'll put on some records
And wait for the light
Under those million parachutes
Now a blanket is white.

just for laughs

I can't get enough of this video la. Can watch it over and over and still break out into laughter.

what is wisdom

I was going through the apple website and bumped into this video on their pro page. I've watched it three times and i like it. Its part of a larger project called wisdombook by Andrew Zuckerman. Listen, learn and have a blessed weekend :)

In the words of Solomon the great king, "the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom..."

our world today

I saw this cool video and thought i would share it here.

more than words indeed

After watching this video i felt so inadequate. There's a girl who is so talented and has taken that talent to such a level at such a young age. I mean look at it. At times like this i wonder what is my unique talent? What am I good at?

~shalom~

how would you describe yourself

Saw this video on youtube and kind of thought what if that question was posed to me. How would i describe myself? Well here's what a few people said.



I guess for me, no i'm not evolving, i think i'm constantly being modified if that makes sense. And i guess curious is not out of place too. How about you?
