Let God arise

20 09 2009

Hey there, another song by Chris Tomlin!  =D  Let God arise… really lively song =D  P.S.   Do play it Tim Hughes’ style, i.e. the D is a C chord shifted 2 frets down, and constantly press the small e on the 3rd fret, sounds really nice.  Have a great week ahead! =)

Hey there!  Found a song I just bought from a CD.  Called “I am Free”, sounds quite familiar.  Quite a happy song.  Enjoy! =D

We Cry Out

6 09 2009

Hey there, a really encouraging song I came across on the Integrity Music Website. The artistes do provide a few free songs there, so do check it out if you can…

Will paste Joel 2:32 here:

32 And everyone who calls
on the name of the LORD will be saved;
for on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem
there will be deliverance,
as the LORD has said,
among the survivors
whom the LORD calls.
- [Joel 2:32]

A really good reminder as the week comes to a close. Enjoy!
