Music Speaks What Cannot Be Expressed

So if you couldn't already tell from all my other posts about songs, I'm really into music that expresses how I feel. I have a really hard time putting my feelings into words most of the time, and songs like "Fight Inside" by Red or "Cut" by Plumb really put some of my feelings into words. This quote describes it really well: "Music speaks what cannot be expressed, soothes the mind and gives it rest, heals the heart and makes it whole, flows from heaven to the soul." I've always been really into music. It's a rare occasion I'm not listening to music. Even right now, I'm listening to Lady Gaga. Haha. I don't like silence, so I think that's a big reason I've always got noise going on.

I heard a song as I was driving today. It's called "The Words I Would Say" by Sidewalk Prophets. It really got me thinking. I've been asking God to show me that things really are going to be okay. This song was pretty much the sign I was looking for.



Three in the morning
And I'm still awake
So I picked up a pen and a page
And I started writing
Just what I'd say
If we were face to face
I'd tell you just what you mean to me
I'd tell you these simple truths

Be strong in the Lord and
Never give up hope
You're going to do great things
I already know
God's got His hand on you so
Don't live life in fear
Forgive and forget
But don't forget why you're here
Take your time and pray
These are the words I would say

Last time we spoke
You said you were hurting
And I felt your pain in my heart
I want to tell you
That I keep on praying
Love will find you where you are
I know cause I've already been there
So please hear these simple truths

Be strong in the Lord and
Never give up hope
You're going to do great things
I already know
God's got His hand on you so
Don't live life in fear
Forgive and forget
But don't forget why you're here
Take your time and pray
These are the words I would say

From one simple life to another
I will say
Come find peace in the Father

Be strong in the Lord and
Never give up hope
You're going to do great things
I already know
God's got His hand on you so
Don't live life in fear
Forgive and forget
But don't forget why you're here
Take your time and pray
Thank God for each day
His love will find a way
These are the words I would say
