My song for this week was one that i happened to hear while listening to Pandora last week. It was on my "Irish Folk" station. For some time i have been searching for Christian Irish Folk musicians, and i have even had several comments recommending a few groups, but to be honest unless i can hear the music and experience it first hand, it's hard to know if i like it for sure. Moya's song "Hear My Prayer" was very timely and beautiful.
Hear My Prayer
Moya Brennnan
Album: Signature
Hear my prayer
Bring me through the darkness, hear my heart
Draw me in
On this bright, new morning
Here I am, stay with me
Never too late to forgive
Here I am, set me free
Sing Hallelujah
Angels walk with me
Guide me to the water's edge
Wash away my doubts, my fears
Lord, strengthen me and bring me back to you
Change my heart
With a gentle touch you change my world
Hold me close
Fill my life with beauty
Hear my voice, stay with me
Bring cool water to my lips
Hear my prayer, set me free
Sing Hallelujah
Angels walk with me
Guide me to the water's edge
Wash away my doubts, my fears
Lord, strengthen me and bring me back to you
(2x)
To know, and to be known, by God is the ultimate. The scariest thing to hear is "‘I never knew you; depart from me" (Matthew 7:23 ESV), and prayer and meditation on the Word of God is essential to getting to know our Lord. So this was a good song for me because it speaks to me about spending time with the Lord.

"I never knew you; Depart from me."
I cannot imagine the fear/terror those words would cause.ga
