Clay and I like the band Kutless. I like a lot of different music and really so does Clay. We first heard Kutless at Life Light, which was an outdoor Christian music festival in South Dakota that my sister-in-law Valerie took us too. I am so glad she did. I love that band. I have all of their cds. I think there are 5 or 6. I like to listen to them when I take my walks outside. Somehow I feel that is my spiritual time. Today it hit me a bit harder than normal. Usually I glean different insights from the lyrics and I "rotate" which cd and songs are my "current" favorites. Today I switched cds and the song "All Alone" was one of the songs that really got me. (I tend to be a crier at things anyway, but this song brought some tears.) I had to look funny fitness walking down the sidewalk with tears streaming down my face. Sometimes I sing along to the song too. I put the lyrics below and highlighted some of the phrases that got me today...
All Alone by Kutless
Icy chills round your heart
A heart that's made of stone
It seems like
Life is out to get you
To destroy what you want
I know that, that you blame me for all that you go through
It could be, so different if you would just let it go
You're all alone
Running out of ways to
Hold on to hope
And it always slips away
You're all alone
But you don't have to
Pretend to cope
There is a brighter way
If you would change your perspective
You'd see that it is true
Life is not always what you want
Sometimes it's hard to bear
I'd be with you, and help you in all that you go through
I love you, let Me change your heart by coming in
You're all alone
Running out of ways to
Hold on to hope
And it always slips away
You're all alone
But you don't have to
Pretend to cope
There is a brighter way
Deep thought from my walk..... I am NOT alone (even though there are times I feel like I am). I don't have to "Pretend" to cope, there is a brighter way. I have a lot of other thoughts swirling around but Clay just made our dinner so I'm going to feed my stomach like the walk fed my soul.
