Let Songs Arise
Awaken my heart to sing thy praise in the midst of tragedy
Awaken my heart to sing thy grace when pain is all I see
Teach my your plans, Oh Sovereign of all
Dismantled I come, by faith and your call
PRECHORUS:
Arise my heart in light of grace
Arise my soul with a song of praise
For He is good, and Just to see
That in my pain, I bring an offering
CHORUS:
Let songs arise, let praise arise
When songs are far, and feelings cease
Let songs arise, let praise arise
In valley’s low, in stormy seas
On Mountain highs, in rivers deep
Let songs arise
Vs.2
Awaken church, were not done yet
The harvest is ripe, wedding feast is almost set
The King is coming, returning for me
Alas, ‘twill be over, we shall win the victory
BRIDGE:
In the shadows when I don’t see the light
In the stillness of day, or the storms of the night
I won’t forget this mystery that life is found through suffering

You are a gifted writer. Your song reminds me of that scene in the movie "Joshua" where the woman breaks the vase and says that her life is shattered like that vase....and then Joshua crafts it into a beautiful sculpture. It illustrates how God can take broken pieces of our hearts and not only put them back together again...but give us back something better than before. :)
So...when do we get to hear one of these awesome songs you've written?
Let Song's Arise.....yes, what a beautiful song that is. I think that this will be a blessing to those of us who will hear it someday. May God continue to gift you with His abiltiy to write music, and also preach through singing!!
Jonathan,
GREAT lyrics! We just finished a CD called Come Weary Saints, and this would have been a perfect fit for it. Is it possible to get a copy of the music?
BTW, I very much appreciate your and your brother's focus on the Gospel. Thanks for being faithful to preach Christ and him crucified.
Thank you so much for the CD!!
I love it and it is so true, we are not finished yet. There's alot of work to be done in this city!!
I enjoy worshipping with you on Saturday evenings as well. Keep up the great work. God is good and i know He smiles every time He hears your sweet voice..........
