What Do You Listen To When You Write?

Tuesday, November 6, 2007

Caught Between the Hammer and the Anvil

I'm trading my sorrow
I'm trading my shame
I'm laying it down for the joy of the Lord


I'm trading my sickness
I'm trading my pain
I'm laying it down for the joy of the Lord


Chorus:
And we say yes Lord yes Lord yes yes Lord
Yes Lord yes Lord yes yes Lord
Yes Lord yes Lord yes yes Lord Amen


I'm pressed but not crushed persecuted not abandoned
Struck down but not destroyed
I'm blessed beyond the curse for his promise will endure
And his joy's gonna be my strength


Though the sorrow may last for the night His joy comes with the morning


Darrell Evans "Trading My Sorrows"


Blessed Be Your Name

In the land that is plentiful

Where your streams of abundance flow

Blessed be your name


Blessed Be Your name

When I’m found in the desert place

Though I walk through the wilderness

Blessed Be Your name


Every blessing you pour out

I’ll turn back to praise

When the darkness closes in

Still I will say


Blessed be the name of the Lord

Blessed be Your name

Blessed be the name of the Lord

Blessed be Your glorious name


Blessed be Your name

When the sun’s shining down on me

When the world’s ‘all as it should be’

Blessed be Your name


Blessed be Your name

On the road marked with suffering

Though there’s pain in the offering

Blessed be Your name


Every blessing you pour out

I’ll turn back to praise

When the darkness closes in

Still I will say

Blessed be the name of the Lord

I would appreciate prayer, something happened to my vision while I was on vacation, hopefully nothing major but there's a lot of fear I can't seem to shake, and these are the two songs that I'm ''living in'' right now. I'm going for the MRI right now, and we should know something in about two days hopefully.
Thanks.

Prayers going up. Keep us posted.

Never alone.

The MRI tech said that the films were done today, and that the person who reads them will call me tomorrow morning before 11. Now, if I could just have a good night's sleep, I'd be happy. I really appreciate the prayers more than I can say.
