Good Song Sunday–Love Don’t Leave Me Alone

February 8, 2011 in Good Song Sunday, video by The Blackthorn Project | Permalink

Hey look! It worked! We didn’t post this on Sunday, though we tried to. For some reason, it was just today–Tuesday–that YouTube decided to let the video show up.

We’re continuing in the Good Song Sunday tradition this year, and you can look forward to a new video every first Sunday of the month. So even though we’re technically two days late this month, we’re excited to roll out February’s Good Song Sunday!

LOVE DON’T LEAVE ME ALONE

Clap your hands, raise up your voices
Beat your drums, get out your guitars
We love the Lord, He loved us first
So stomp on the floor and rattle the earth

Love don’t leave me alone (love don’t leave me alone)

He opened his mouth, out came the heavens
And the moon and the stars that go on forever
He opened his hand, out came the earth
Rain for the rivers and food from the dirt

Love don’t leave me alone (love don’t leave me alone)

Our road has been long, our minds full of worry
Our road has been long, our minds full of worry
Our road has been long, our minds full of worry
But he won’t forget no one who hopes in his mercy

Love don’t leave me alone (love don’t leave me alone)
from Reckless

I let the tea kettle burn on the stove because I could not stop this video.

Laurie and I are recording some parts for Josh’s new album through StringOverdubs.com. What an honor.

Good Song Sunday–Whisper Your Love

Oh yes. Another Good Song Sunday is here. Enjoy.

Whisper Your Love
When I’m small
When I’m helpless
When I’m scared to leave the place where I hide
When my head is loud
but full of nothing
Oh how I need the sound of your voice

Every time I cry
help me remember

Your love is so great you lift up my heavy heart
You break off the ropes that burn my skin
Your love is so great you set me in open fields
You whisper your love, you whisper your love

When I’m small
When I’m helpless
When I’ve believed all the lies I’ve been told
When I’m tangled up in lesser loves
Oh how I need the strength of your touch

Every time I cry
help me remember

Good Song Sunday–Be Thou My Vision

September 5, 2010 in Good Song Sunday, video by The Blackthorn Project | 4 comments

I (Tim) love this song so much I almost want to guard it. Instead I’ve dared to rearrange it and share it with you. It’s the arrangement we made for the Reckless album, and one of our favorite tracks on the CD. It’s a favorite memory from recording–the first song I’ve ever recorded in one take. In other words, both the guitar part and my vocal are unedited on the final recording–one seamless performance. Just part of the fun of being myself and enjoying the voice I have, rather than trying to be more like someone else. You can listen to this song in all its fully-produced wonder here.

Good Song Sunday–Nothing Can Stop You

Here’s another Good Song Sunday video for ya.

This one is me (Laurie) and our great friend Amanda Steed, who some of you might have met at Worship@8500 this year. Our husbands are out on the river with fly rods and their man spirits, and we are sitting at the kitchen table enjoying the morning. The song that the morning called for? Nothing Can Stop You, off of Enter the Worship Circle: Fourth Circle, written by our beautiful friends Karla Adolphe and Ben Pasley.

Nothing Can Stop You (Psalm 45)

Great are you Lord
I do not have words to explain
All you have done for me
Generations have come
In their wisdom they call you their God
Your love has no limits at all
so now I sing

Lord, You are perfect
In all of Your ways
Your not easily angered
You make no mistakes
No, nothing can stop You
Nothing can stand in Your way

You hear my cry
You will catch every tear from my eyes
And you watch over my life
And you’re building a city
Not made with the power of men
I know that I’m safe and sound
now i sing

Lord, You are perfect
In all of Your ways
Your not easily angered
You make no mistakes
No, nothing can stop You
Nothing can stand in Your way

Lord, You are perfect
In all of Your ways
Your not easily angered
You make no mistakes
No, nothing can stop You
Nothing can stand in Your way

This song was written by Karla Adolphe and Ben Pasley. You should buy every ounce of music you can from Karla; she is one of the most gifted songwriters out there.
