A couple weeks ago a group of us met to worship and pray at our house.  It was a really cool time, and near the end of our evening I grabbed an old guitar that had been tuned a little different.  As I played God began to place a song on my heart that I hadn't sung in years (not sure if I've ever used it when I was leading.)  As I sang it the words caused my heart to rise up from deep inside me.  I Lift My Eyes Up is a Brian Doerksen song that has been a voice for many in worship, but that night it was brand new for me.  I took the time to record it, and I pray that it leads you to a quiet place where your spirit is released to sing "so I will wait for you, to come and rescue me, come and give me life.
