on my way

22 November 2006

Among the more savvy atheists, modern Christian bands seem to have either paradoxical or poser-ific images. While I could quote tons of Bible verses on why loud music is perfectly alright for praising The Man, I kind of expect a whole mass of jaded sunday-school backsliders to come at me with their twisted self-pity ideals and all blablablabla...

The point is, if it's for a good cause without being morally wrong (morally as in, if it tugs at your heart. Premarital sex is not good. Loud rock music could be good), IT'S GOOD.

Ok, so the point is, I like this song. It's by Hillsong United. It's a good song. I like it.

Hillsong United - Free

WOULD YOU BELIEVE ME IF I SAID
THAT WE ARE THE ONES WHO CAN MAKE THE CHANGE
IN THE WORLD TODAY
WOULD YOU BELIEVE ME IF I SAID
THAT ALL OF THE DREAMS IN YOUR HEART
CAN COME TRUE TODAY
WOULD YOU BELIEVE ME IF I SAID
THAT LIFE CAN BE ALL THAT
YOU WANT IT TO BE TODAY

AND IF I HAD WINGS I WOULD FLY
'CAUSE ALL THAT I NEED, YOU ARE
AND IF THE WORLD CAVED IN AROUND ME
TO YOU I'D STILL HOLD ON
'CAUSE YOU'RE ALL THAT I BELIEVE
AND THE ONE THAT CREATED ME
JESUS, BECAUSE OF YOU
I'M FREE

WOULD YOU BELIEVE ME IF I SAID
THAT GOD CAN MAKE MIRACLES HAPPEN TODAY
WOULD YOU BELIEVE ME IF I SAID
THAT YOU DON'T NEED TO WAIT FOR THE ANSWERS BEFORE
YOU STEP OUT IN FAITH
WOULD YOU BELIEVE ME IF I SAID
THAT NOTHING IS EVER IMPOSSIBLE
FOR GOD

JUST LIVE YOUR LIFE WITH GOD INSIDE
YOU WON'T REGRET ONE MOMENT OF IT
AND GIVE ALL THAT YOU CAN FOR GOD
FOR GOD

I'M FREE
I'M FREE
I'M FREE
I'M FREE
FOR GOD
