Into the Day

I love the fact that God chooses different methods/ways to speak to us. One day it might be a verse, the next it might be a person, or song, or place. I also love the fact that when I hear His voice, there's no doubt that it's Him. God is so good to be so clear to us at just the right time, isn't He?

One way that He frequently speaks to me (as I'm sure He does with many of you) is through music. Many times God uses a song to confirm in my heart what He's already told me. How good of Him to realize that I need confirmation, and sometimes need to be told more than once or in a different way.

The song God has most recently been using and therefore is my favorite song of late is "Into the Day" by Bebo Norman. I thought you might enjoy reading the lyrics.

You could turn a hundred years and never empty all your fears
They’re pouring out like broken words and broken bones
They could fill a thousand pages, be the cry for all the ages
And the song for every soul who stands alone

The ache of life is more than you are able

Hold on love, don’t give up
Don’t close your eyes
The light is breaking through the night

Step out into the day, all the clouds and all the rain are gone
It’s over now
Step out into the sun, for you have only begun to know
What it’s all about
As the hungering dark gives way to the dawn, my love
It’s over now

Time will let the story told grow and grow ‘til it unfolds
In a way that even you cannot ignore
You can say the seasons change but never if you just remain
In a place where the freeze is at your door

What you don’t know is the signs are right for the turning tide

Hold on love, don’t give up
Don’t close your eyes
The light is breaking through the night

Step out into the day, all the clouds and all the rain are gone
It’s over now
Step out into the sun, for you have only begun to know
What it’s all about
As the hungering dark gives way to the dawn, my love
It’s over now

Hold on, hold on
It won’t be long
So hold on
