New Music Monday

Anyone who knows me knows how much I love music. So, every Monday I'm going to post a "new to me" song. Something that's been stuck in my head lately. So, to kick it off, we'll start with a tune by Phil Wickham. He's an amazing, up-and-coming Christian artist who got his start leading worship for his youth group at age 12. He's now 24 and recently released his sophomore album, Cannons. The first single from this album, Divine Romance, definitely caught my attention. His more recent release, True Love, is an incredibly powerful song that invites listeners to hear the story of the Gospel. You can check it out on his MySpace page. You can also download a live version of Cannons for free on his website. Enjoy!

Come close listen to the story
about a love more faithful than the morning
The Father gave his only Son just to save us

The earth was shaking in the dark
All creation felt the Fathers broken heart
tears were filling heaven's eyes
The day that true love died, the day that true love died
When blood and water hit the ground
Walls we couldn't move came crashing down
We were free and made alive
The day that true love died, The day that true love died

Search your heart you know you can't deny it
Come on, lose your life just so you can find it
The Father gave his only son just to save us

The earth was shaking in the dark
All creation felt the Fathers broken heart
tears were filling heaven's eyes
The day that true love died, the day that true love died
When blood and water hit the ground
Walls we couldn't move came crashing down
We were free and made alive
The day that true love died, The day that true love died

Now, Jesus is alive

Jesus is alive
Oh, He is alive
He rose again

When blood and water hit the ground
Walls we couldn't move came crashing down
We were free and made alive
The day that true love died, The day that true love died

Come close listen to the story
