Then Sings My Soul: Mary Did You Know

I was treated to this song by a very special friend a few days ago. There are many versions on YouTube. I wanted to share this one by Donny Osmond because he's a memory of an innocent childhood when I was ready to be introduced into pop music and the Easter Bunny left me my first record album, From Donny with Love.

Corny to be sure, and certainly far from what's expressed in this powerful song. Osmond takes a back seat, as he should, to the powerful lyrics. I very much appreciated being able to think about Christmas in this way this year.

FFH: I'll Join the Rocks

FFH was the first Christian rock group that I was able to really enjoy. Shortly after we discovered Ready to Fly, we went on a VBS mission trip and we made copies for everyone driving up to enjoy. I fell in love with this song off the bat.

The time has come for me
To leave this place of complacency
And step out across that line
To the place where I
Can leave all that I have behind
And give you this heart of mine

But what if I'm the only one to break the silence
What if I'm the only one to crack the ice

(chorus)
I'll join the rocks with their singing
I'll join the ocean as it harmonizes with the shore
I'll clap my hands with the mountains
As all creation cries for more
I'll never stop, if I'm the last one living
Your song goes on and on and I must testify
I know that I was born to worship
So if all the singing seems to stop
I'll join the rocks

My ship is sailing now
Into an ocean and I can't tell
What's on the other side
But I know if I don't leave
My heart will never forgive me
And I'll be left behind

But what if I'm the only one to see
there's more to this
What if we have just begun to
scratch the surface

(chorus)

Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Hallelujah, hallelujah
