For You is a song that speaks to God’s constant pursuit over those He loves. Even in our despair, in our wandering, in our sleepiness, the Lord gently calls us back to Him whether we recognize it or not. 

This song is a song of praise in recognizing His care and tenderness to awaken His Spirit inside of me. Written in a very tumultuous time, and a period of most spiritual attack by the enemy where my faith was shaken and my response to the Lord was apathetic at best, the Lord cared for me, pursued me, and woke me up out of my slumber in the most incredible way. I actually wrote this song before I knew the full extent He would go to woo me back. All, I can do, in everything I do is make a joyful noise in worship to my Redeemer, the One Who restored my soul. 

I hope this song brings refreshment and nourishment to your soul, and helps you praise the One Who redeems you and restores you.

For You

This song invites a time of reflection and repentance. During a very dry time in my walk with the Lord, I went through the book of Psalms. I connected to David, and His plea for the Lord to never leave Him. Not that God would, but David’s humanity showed His reverence to the Lord. David had a heart after God, but He was proven to be fallen in many ways. He messed up big time. He strayed far, and tried to hide from God. I connected to David’s cry, and summarized his pleas with my own pleas and cries of repentance to the Lord.

I often think nowadays, repentance isn’t something many churches talk about or set aside time for. Nobody likes to talk about it. But it’s the Lord’s kindness that leads us to repentance, not to maintain our Salvation, but to maintain a healthy relationship with our Savior who loves us. It’s so we can purify our hearts and get rid of anything standing in our way from fully walking in His will, seeing with His eyes, and hearing with His ears. Repentance invites us to get rid of any idols taking the place over the Lord. It’s an opportunity to get deeper and move forward with the Lord. 

So I hope you enjoy this simple voice memo recoding of my twin sister and I. Maybe someday we can legit record it.
