"Westmont Song..." FREE Concert: Jan 12, 2009

So this last month, fires blazed there way through nor. cal hitting the Santa Barbara area...

One of my best friends attends Westmont, a Christian College in the area. 1 day prior to the fire hitting, I was actually visiting her on campus. In that time I got to see the campus grounds and all the beauty this campus hosted. The people I got to meet that were in here dorm were wonderful. It was a great couple of days.

The next evening I had heard about the fires on campus. My heart right away began to grieve the loss with all those faces I had just so recently met. Weird. This had never happened to me before. As a matter of fact, the very room I slept in the night before had been burned. That whole building went up in flames. So many things lost. My heart was in communion with my brothers and sisters in such a real way- a song was born.

In that next few days I was reminded that this world has nothing for us in comparison to all that is waiting for us in eternity; but at the same time, there is this very real struggle our flesh endures as we live out our days here on earth... we feel tied and bound to worldly things, possessions. It's difficult. I was reminded of HOPE.

Here are the lyrics to "Invisible Solid" (c) 2008
I pray you are reminded of hope through this song:

Verse 1:
Lord I'm tired of playing all these empty games
Won't you take me out so I can start again
Lord I'm growing weary as my legs keep moving
Faster to keep up with the room that's spinning

Chorus:
So wont you speak a word
Into my broken world
I am desperate for truth
So wont you speak a word
Into my broken world
I am desperate for truth

Verse 2:
The earth has fallen beneath my feet, but I
Am standing on and invisible solid
A firm foundation, I'm held up by you
Into Your hands I commit my spirit

Chorus

Bridge:
There is a Life, there is a Hope, there Joy that can't be broken
There is Peace, there is a Love, that can not be taken
No matter what comes today
Your blood has paved my way to eternity
Where I will be home and know freedom


And that's it.
