#AtoZchallenge: ZZZ (Sleep, don't weep)



How many songs are there that starts with "Z"? There was a Hillsong album called Zion, but I didn't really listen to it and I wasn't actually attracted to it.

Anyway, I like this song.
Haha.

That's all.

Thank you for sticking with me until the end!

#AtoZchallenge: You Make Me Brave



There seems to be two titles of this song - half the lists put it as "You make me brave", the others title it "Make me brave."
But since this says "Official Live Music Video," I guess this should be the right title. :P

This is kind of like a follow on to Oceans, for me at least. I guess the basis of it is really the story of Peter getting out of the boat and walking on water to meet Jesus.


You make me brave
You make me brave
You called me out beyond the shore into the waves
You make me brave
Yo...

#AtoZchallenge: (I e)Xalt Thee



This is where I really had to get a little "creative".
X is a really difficult letter to start with.

Old gold.
Made new.

#AtoZchallenge: We Win!

I decided to go for something whimsical for W. Also because I love David Crowder Band's A Collision album.

The other song I was thinking of has already been posted here.

#AtoZchallenge: Voice of Truth



V's also not a very common starting for songs, at least that I can remember.
So this isn't exactly a worship song, but CCM.

#AtoZchallenge: Undone



I couldn't find anything that I really liked starting with "U".
But I really love the meaning of this song. And anyway, Lifehouse is kind of... CCM-ish?

Undone

I can see it your eyes you're hurting
But pain is part of learning who you are
All these truths can sometimes be deceiving
When your whole world comes crashing to the ground

Tell me everything you need now anything at all
And I will be the one who's waiting anytime you fall

Yeah, When you come undone
When you come undone

You know I can't be like...

#AtoZchallenge: This Is What You Do



Because this song just replays itself in your head over and over and over and over and over and over...
and never ends.

HAHA!

Also, an Ignite-inspired song.

#AtoZChallenge: Spirit break out



I was going to go with Set a Fire, but then I saw this in the up next/autoplay list.

Esther sang this song a lot when I first attended Ignite. I feel like I should be saying something about it, but I don't know what. Except that every time we sang it, it was like a roar going forth from our hearts to God, inviting Him into our lives, our churches, our cities.

Chorus
Spirit break out
Break our walls down
Spirit break out
Heaven come down
(REPEAT)

Verse 1
Our Father all of heaven roars Your name
Sin...

#AtoZchallenge: Revelation Song



The main difficulty with this song was deciding which version (singer/band) to use.
Settled on Jesus Culture mainly because I currently prefer the lower, throatier sound than Kari's sharper notes.

#AtoZchallenge: Que Sera, Sera



Okay. Definitely not a worship song, and definitely a controversial one to put up. (Also, I really don't know any worship songs that start with 'Q')

Let me explain.

Whilst "whatever will be will be" sounds very fatalistic, it is true that the future is not ours to see. The future, and the plan for our lives, belongs to God.

Proverbs 3:5-6 says "Trust in the Lord your God with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways, acknowledge Him and He will guide your path."
