As I'm sure you all know by now, I love music and almost always have the radio or a cd playing. There is a song on my Christian radio station that I hear at least once a day...& it makes me move. Ya know...it's almost always the music/beat that gets to me first. THEN, the lyrics. Today, when I heard this song, I really listened to it. It's interesting that I like it so much, because it's kind of a rapper type of music. But, like I said, it makes me move. Here's the music with lyrics below...

Toby Mac ~ Lose My Soul

Verse 1

Father God, I am clay in your hands

Help me to stay that way through all life's demands

'Cause they chip and they nag and they pull at me

And every little thing I make up my mind to be

Like I'm gonna be a daddy whose in the mix

And I'm gonna be a husband who stays legit

And I pray that I'm an artist who rises above

The road that is wide and filled with self love

Everything that I see draws me

Though it's only in You that I can truly see that it’s a feast for the eyes- a low blow to purpose

And I'm a little kid at a three ring circus

Chorus

I don't want to gain the whole world and lose my soul

Don't wanna walk away let me hear the people say

Verse 2

The paparazzi flashes and that they think that it's you

But they don't know that who you are is not what you do

True, we get it twisted when we peak at the charts

You before we part from the start where's your heart?

You a pimp, hustler?

Tell me what's your title

America has no more stars now we call them idols

You sit idle

While we teach prosperity

The first thing to prosper should be inside of me

We're free...Not because of 22's on the range

But Christ came in range we said yes now we changed

Not the same even though I made a fall

Since I got that call no more Saul now I'm Paul

I don't want to gain the whole world and lose my soul

Don't wanna walk away let me hear the people say

Verse 3

How do I sense the tide that's rising?

De-sensitizing me from living in light of eternity

How do I sense the tide that's rising?

It's hypnotizing me from living in light of eternity

I don't want to gain the whole world and lose my soul

Don't wanna walk away let me hear the people say

I housesat for Claire & family this weekend. That entails taking care of the outside animals...horses, chickens, cats. And, the 3 Portuguese Water Dogs, guinea pig and bird inside. I gathered about 6 eggs that I was able to keep for myself...yummy! Fresh eggs!

(My knee is mush after all the going up/down stairs, and mucking the stalls. It's probably almost time to have my knee replacement.)

Here are the horses...I made them pose for me before I brought them in today.
