I gotta keep singing

Being sick, and isolated from the world has really had an affect on me. In particular my spiritual life. The past couple of weeks I have had some really interesting worship jams.

When I was younger, I was really into the church music scene. There was hardly a week that I wasn't participating in something musically. I think about it now, and how far away from that I am. Sometimes it makes me sad. But I know that the Lord created my voice to praise him. Even if that means it's just in my living room in my pajamas and He is the only one listening to it, I know it's not wasted.

I have recently been re-introduced to a song by Mercy Me called, "I gotta Keep Singing". I think it really depicts where I am right now.




Here are the words:

Another rainy dayI can't recall having sunshine on my face
And all I feel is pain
And all I wanna do is walk out of this place
But when I am stuck and I can't move
When I don't know what I should do
When I wonder if I'll ever make it through
I gotta keep singing
I gotta keep praising Your name
You're the one that's keeping my heart beating
I gotta keep singingI gotta keep praising Your name
That's the only way that I'll find healing
Can I climb up in Your lap
I don't wanna leave
Jesus sing over me
I gotta keep singing
Oh You're everything I need
And I gotta keep singing
