Worship of The Week

You Are My Joy-David Crowder Band

I believe David Crowder band is pumping out some of the most amazing songs spiritually and musically.
This song is off their album "A Collision" which was cleverly followed up with by the album "B collision"
The album "A Collision" was a stray from the "typical worship album" but its a very nice change. The reason this song is so powerful is the lyrics are so simple but so true. "You are my joy" is sung over and over. Here are the lyrics

And He set me on fire, and I am burning alive.
With His breath in my lungs I am coming undone.
And he set me on fire and I am burning alive.
With His breath in my lungs I am coming undone.
And I cannot hold it in and remain composed.
Love's taken over me and so I propose the letting myself go.
I am letting myself go.

You are my joy.
You are my joy.
You are my joy.
You are my joy.

if you look at the verse it also holds much power. "with His breath in my lungs I am coming undone, and i cannot hold it in and remain composed. Love's taken over me and so i propose the letting myself go"
this gives me a visual of being so full of Christ and the joy he gives that we literally come undone kinda spliting at the seems because of this love.
This song also has a good deal of musical interludes to think/reflect/pray during something i like during worship

The chords

oh my

Worship of The Week

AJ — Thu, 08 Feb 2007 08:14:57 +0000

so. I have been thinking and I am going to start posting up one "worship song of the week" just to have people hear new things and refresh on old things. and basically find good worship. alot of people(including me) listen to hardly any worship because mainstream stuff is more "fun" but of course God made us to worship so we should do that. Yes we worship in other ways besides music. but i like worshiping through music so for your sake and mine. i am going to be posting one song a week( maybe even an artist a week) to keep you and I up on some good worship. i may even blog a little bit on the lyrics and how i feel about the song. look forwards to these post! i will try and not pick too many songs by david crowder, even though i love pretty much everything he does.

Psalm 9:1&2 "I will praise you, O LORD, with all my heart; I will tell of all your wonders. I will be glad and rejoice in you; I will sing praise to your name, O Most High"

Psalm 33:1-3 "Sing joyfully to the LORD, you righteous; it is fitting for the upright to praise him. Praise the LORD with the harp; make music to him on the ten-stringed lyre. Sing to him a new song; play skillfully, and shout for joy.

Psalm 92:1-3 " It is good to praise the LORD and make music to your name, O Most High, to proclaim your love in the morning and your faithfulness at night, to the music of the ten-stringed lyre and the melody of the harp."

Psalm 149 :

" 1 Praise the LORD.
Sing to the LORD a new song,
his praise in the assembly of the saints.

2 Let Israel rejoice in their Maker;
let the people of Zion be glad in their King.

3 Let them praise his name with dancing
and make music to him with tambourine and harp.

4 For the LORD takes delight in his people;
he crowns the humble with salvation.

5 Let the saints rejoice in this honor
and sing for joy on their beds.

6 May the praise of God be in their mouths
and a double-edged sword in their hands,

7 to inflict vengeance on the nations
and punishment on the peoples,

8 to bind their kings with fetters,
their nobles with shackles of iron,

9 to carry out the sentence written against them.
This is the glory of all his saints.
Praise the LORD."

So, its been over a year since i first got my mac. it was an amazing day. the day before i picked it up Andrew told me "it will change your life" and surely enough it has. i get on PC's and feel a little dirty. i know that just sounds silly but really the mac platform is very easy the computers look nice and everything just works. I bought it for recording music. and its very useful for that. and i agree some people are not Mac people. some people are but what this boils down to is a one button mouse versus the two button mouse. Kevin always thought mac's were silly because they did not offer a two button mouse(till recently) and i being the mac fanatic just debated that the second click was unnecessary, now while this is still true. apple has replaced my imac for a new iMac since compusa couldnt get anything right with the other one. and along with the new intel iMac i got a MightMouse(Apple's Two button mouse). And i forgot how nice two buttons are. now i still believe it is unnecessary although at times quite useful. also being useful the scroll wheel and the buttons on the side of the mouse which you can program to do different things. well this is just my formal acknowledgement that two button mice are better than one( althought unecessary) :)

Hello Apple Computers Welcome to the 90's Two button mice are in!!

(well its already mostly there. but im a tweaker.) ive got all my music/pictures/documents/programs. just gotta get those last tiny miniscule adjustments. and i will be very happy.

ACHE

AJ — Fri, 10 Nov 2006 08:10:58 +0000

So. Since CompUsa cannot get ANYTHING right about fixing my computer. Apple has decided to so graciously replace my computer with a brand new imac. WHICH i am completely ok with :)

in other news

i wish i was better at studying. and i hope i make it into aTm next year. otherwise. it looks like ill be back home, maybe helping at HNW not like that would be bad. but I would really love to go to A&M..

Also Fergie from the Black Eyed Peas has TWO singles which are pretty smashin.

and my guitar is treating me very nicely. as soon as i get my new iMac i should be recording some neat stuff and sending it over to andrew who never posts.

So for about a year, I've wanted to be a cowboy. But never seen much sense in changing who i am because i like the idea of being a cowboy. Boots, Hats, Horses and that crap. all just would be nice

i think i have to live somewhere where i can do that.

Jesus Paid it all

AJ — Wed, 25 Oct 2006 17:34:41 +0000

So at breakaway they dont have a consistant band and they kinda just switch out everyweek. its different its kinda tough sometimes when you dont know songs but all the bands have played this one song and it really gets me.

I hear the Savior say,
"Thy strength indeed is small;
Child of weakness, watch and pray,
Find in Me thine all in all.â€?

Jesus paid it all,
All to Him I owe;
Sin had left a crimson stain,
He washed it white as snow.

Lord, now indeed I find
Thy power and Thine alone,
Can change the leper's spots
And melt the heart of stone.

Jesus paid it all,
All to Him I owe;
Sin had left a crimson stain,
He washed it white as snow.

And when before the throne
I stand in Him complete,
I'll lay my trophies down
All down at Jesus' feet.

Jesus paid it all,
All to Him I owe;
Sin had left a crimson stain,
He washed it white as snow.

Oh praise the one
Who paid my debt
and raised this life
up from the dead

Oh praise the one
Who paid my debt
and raised this life
up from the dead

and when we repeat over and over oh praise the one who paid my debt and raised this life up from the dead. i cant help but crumble.

Kristian Stanfill
does a version of this song.

My computer is in the shop again cos compusa actually messed stuff up last time they "fixed" it. which will probably happen again. which means me cutting them a good one. or something. so i have totally forgot about alot of internet things. and i rely on it alot less. anyways. its nice to see i have a blog i forgot about it. ah oh well. tommorow randy and jen get married which is very exciting.also i get to see alot of people i havnt seen in a while. and i get two days off work.
and i finally got my guitar

so thats tight. it sounds amazing. and i play it often. now. all i need is a new car. a wife and kids. maybe a job.

so those who read are mostly. bill randy andrew rikki and maybe jeremy. anyways. i know you guys would all pray for me if i asked. so. here goes. i really wanna find a place to minister up here.and a little on direction for what to do now/my life.

its been fun.
