New Song

Here's a little something the Lord put on my heart. The chorus comes from 2 Corinthians 4:16-18. The verse has been helpful over the last few weeks, and I wanted a way to share it with others. It starts of slow, but when the chorus hits it picks up and shows the joy Christ has restored in my life. Writing it was great; I started to stuggle with a chorus, but when I openned up my bible the verses just spoke for themselves. Can't wait to share it when I get home. God Bless!

Blinded
Verse 1:
And I, I went away on a path I could not see
so many plans just sifting through my mind
I needed this, I need that,
to make me someone that this world would need

Pre chorus:
and it made me blind to you
and all that you can do
but through your grace
you broke me down...
to pick me up again!

Chorus:
and so we dont give up
cause through your grace and love
our spirits are made new from day to day
the troubles we recall, temporary and small
will soon be gone and your joys will overcome...
forever!

Verse 2:
And I, I went away with a prayer for greater change
not knowing what your plans might hold for me
I dont need this, I dont need that
cause from this world there is no truth to see

cause it made me blind to you
and all that you can do
but through your grace
you broke me down...
to pick me up again!

and so we dont give up
cause through your grace and love
our spirits are made new from day to day
the troubles we recall, temporary and small
will soon be gone and your joys will overcome...
forever!
