This one does it for me. It's not just the song. The art and dance are just as powerful. I cry tears everytime I watch it.

Song is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uhOJW4Uwy3c Casting Crowns - Does Anybody Hear Her She is running A hundred miles an hour in the wrong direction She is trying But the canyon's ever widening In the depths of her cold heart So she sets out on another misadventure just to find She's another two years older And she's three more steps behind Does anybody hear her? Can anybody see? Or does anybody even knows she's going down today Under the shadow of our steeple With all the lost and lonely people Searching for the hope that's tucked away in you and me Does anybody hear her? Can anybody see? She is yearning For shelter and affection That she never found at home She is searching For a hero to ride in To ride in and save the day And in walks her prince charming And he knows just what to say Momentary lapse of reason And she gives herself away If judgement looms under every steeple If lofty glances from lofty people Can't see past her scarlet letter And we never even met her ~ Faith |

I am so sorry that people have hurt you that way :( it took me many years to find a fellowship that I felt God's love overflow in and am so thankful I did cos I used to feel very "unaccepted" in most.....always puzzled me because Jesus example is sooooo very different from what so many practice. Still the good news is there *are* places where His love is paramount:) Casting Crowns have a remarkable way of getting to the heart of things dont they........ here is another one that should make the "judgemental ones" take a long hard look at their attitude:rolleyes: "If We Are The Body...." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CUqCbZ6Seuo |

I love this song...
It's called Cry Alone by Ned Tonner... Found it on Rhapsody... http://www.rhapsody.com/player?type=...on=&guid=&from= Abbie |
Here's another one that touched my heart...
haven't heard it in years..... Billy Gilman ~~ One Voice http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KPouj2SrM4w |
I am always deeply moved by Lynda Randle's version of the song "God on the Mountain". I love her voice to start with, and I am comforted and inspired by lyrics such as "The God on the mountain is still God in the valley", and "The God of the good times is still God in the bad times; the God of the day is still God in the night."
Sometimes I sing that last line under my breath when the nights are long and dark, and I start to imagine terrible things...He is still God, even in the night. |

This song is a great inspiration to me because I know my prayers have been answered. I used to be terrified over the fate of my illness and overwhelmed with the realization that my worst nightmares were coming true. :( It's comforting to know I won't be walking through the fire alone. :)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EnJ4VVbB5H0 "Love's Divine" - Seal Then the rainstorm came, over me And I felt my spirit break I had lost all of my, belief you see And realized my mistake But time threw a prayer, to me And all around me became still I need love, love's divine Please forgive me now I see that I've been blind Give me love, love is what I need to help me know my name Through the rainstorm came sanctuary And I felt my spirit fly I had found all of my reality I realize what it takes 'Cause I need love, love's divine Please forgive me now I see that I've been blind Give me love, love is what I need to help me know my name Oh I, don't bet (don't bend), don't break (don't break) Show me how to live and promise me you won't forsake 'Cause love can help me know my name Well I try to say there's nothing wrong But inside I felt me lying all along But the message here was plain to see Believe me 'Cause I need love, love's divine Please forgive me now I see that I've been blind Give me love, love is what I need to help me know my name Oh I, don't bet (don't bend), don't break (don't break) Show me how to live and promise me you won't forsake 'Cause love can help me know my name Love can help me know my name. |

Train -- Calling All Angels
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pAKF3_hCSNs I need a sign to let me know you’re here All of these lines are being crossed over the atmosphere I need to know that things are gonna look up Cause I feel us drowning in a sea spilled from a cup When there is no place safe and no safe place to put my head When you can feel the world shake from the words that I said And I’m calling all angels And I’m calling all you angels And I won’t give up if you don’t give up I won’t give up if you don’t give up I won’t give up if you don’t give up I won’t give up if you don’t give up I need a sign to let me know you’re here Cause my tv set just keeps it all from being clear I want a reason for the way things have to be I need a hand to help build up some kind of hope inside of me And I’m calling all angels And I’m calling all you angels When children have to play inside so they don’t disappear While private eyes solve marriage lies cause we don't talk for years And football teams are kissing queens and losing sight of having dreams In a world where all we want is only what we want untill it’s ours And I’m calling all angels And I’m calling all you angels And I’m calling all angels (I won’t give up if you don’t give up) And I’m calling all you angels (I won’t give up if you don’t give up) Calling all you angels (I won’t give up if you don’t give up) Calling all you angels (I won’t give up if you don’t give up) Calling all you angels |

Three Wooden Crosses ~~ Randy Travis
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PRzcvzF8CZM A farmer and a teacher, a hooker and a preacher, ridin' on a midnight bus bound from Mexico. One was headed for vacation, one for higher education, and two of them were searchin' for lost souls. That driver never ever saw the stop sign. And eighteen wheelers can't stop on a dime. [Chorus] There are three wooden crosses on the right side of the highway, why there's not four of them, Heaven only knows. I guess it's not what you take when you leave this world behind you, it's what you leave behind you when you go. That farmer left a harvest, a home and eighty acres, the faith and love for growin' things in his young son's heart. And that teacher left her wisdom in the the minds of lots of children, and did her best to give 'em all a better start. And that preacher whispered, "Can't you see the promise land?" As he laid his blood-stain bible in that hooker's hand. [Chorus] That's the story that our preacher told last Sunday, as he held that blood-stain bible up, for all of us to see. He said, "Bless the farmer, and the teacher, and the preacher; who gave this bible to my mama, who read it to me." There are three wooden crosses on the right side of the highway, why there's not four of them, now I guess we know. It's not what you take when you leave this world behind you, it's what you leave behind you when you go. There are three wooden crosses on the right side of the highway. |
