chris tomlin makes me cry

the next two weeks are going to eat me alive.. .

.i can feel it coming already

going to need some hard.core prayer. 
certainly not going to be able to do it alone.


i've posted this before
and listened to it twenty .. thirty.. . maybe forty times counting the views on my phone.
every single time, it makes me cry. 
something in chris tomlin's account of the writing of the song and the 2 Kings passage. 
it all just turns me to a weepy, can't catch my breath. mess. 

maybe this week is not the best to listen to this one. 

are you listening?

seems like i've been writing about commercials lately. 
i'm not going to delve into why. .. nor do i particularly know why..  ? 
other than saying _

.. . those swiffer people, they got me good.
i'll surely buy the duster now. 

i hate being bamboozled by cute old people.

my sister is mean

saw this commercial a month or so ago.
loved it for a variety of reasons which i won't detail here and bore you.

nonetheless. 
i went about a search for the video on the inter.world. galactic net and this blog post came up
A Car Commercial That Humors Your Shitty Art World Dreams.
it made me laugh .. . quite a lot.
[you must read]


and now i'm stuck in a quandry.
which side do i stand on?

do i need to choose a subaru side anyway?
i think not.
my sister would say i was a loser for even posing that question.
thanks, alli.

two pieces of my .HEART

they were meant to be brother and sister 

.their puzzle pieces fit right together.

.what i'm YouTubing now :one

Let me be singing when the evening comes

i can't even chose a couple of lyrics to highlight as my favorite.
for different reasons, every few lines hit my heart.
in the best way.
very. best.

Rend Collective has created a breath.taking version of this song. 
What a blessing.





lyrics.

The sun comes up, it's a new day dawning
It's time to sing Your song again
Whatever may pass, and whatever lies before me
Let me be singing when the evening comes

[Chorus]
Bless the Lord, O my soul
O my soul
Worship His holy name
Sing like never before
O my soul
I'll worship Your holy name

You're rich in love, and You're slow to anger
Your name is great, and Your heart is kind
For all Your goodness I will keep on singing
Ten thousand reasons for my heart to find

[Chorus]
Bless the Lord, O my soul
O my soul
Worship His holy name
Sing like never before
O my soul
I'll worship Your holy name

And on that day when my strength is failing
The end draws near and my time has come
Still my soul will sing Your praise unending
Ten thousand years and then forevermore

[Chorus]
Bless the Lord, O my soul
O my soul
Worship His holy name
Sing like never before
O my soul
I'll worship Your holy name
