Subject Songlist - Encouragement
Music is one of the largest parts of my life. I honestly can't go a day without listening to some form of it, and I listen to a huge - I'm talking huge - variety. So I thought every now and then I would post a subject and a few songs I find speak to me especially well. Since life has been up and down for me lately, I thought I would post several songs (as well as lyrics) to do with encouragement. Some of these songs will have YouTube videos to go with them, but if I can't find the vids, I'll post the lyrics. Hope you enjoy them!
Trials Turned to Gold

The Lord is King
Colin Buchanan
You might've seen bad things happening
On the TV news
You might've been worrying bout the world
Wonderin' what'll happen to you.
But put your trust in God alone,
'Cause He's still sitting on His mighty throne.
Because the Lord is King
He's gonna look after everything, everything.
The Lord is King.
He's gonna look after everything, every single thing in this world.
'Cause this is His world.
You might get sad and wonder
Why there's so much pain
Why we let the same mistakes
Happen over and over again
Our sinful ways will always fail
But God and his ways will prevail

In fearsome majesty
But blessed are all who find their place
In the shelter of His grace

The Lord Don't Change At All
Colin Buchanan
I am the Lord, and I do not change.
I am the Lord and I do not change,
Kingdoms rise, and kingdoms fall,
But the Lord don't change at all.
No, the Lord don't change at all.
God chose Israel long and long ago,
And when Israel sinned, God never let them go.
Listen to Him...
I am the Lord, and I do not change.
I am the Lord and I do not change,
Kingdoms rise, and kingdoms fall,
But the Lord don't change at all.
No, the Lord don't change at all.
There are times we feel like we could walk on air,
When that feeling's gone, God's love will still be there.
Listen to Him...
I am the Lord, and I do not change.
I am the Lord and I do not change,
Kingdoms rise, and kingdoms fall,
But the Lord don't change at all.
No, the Lord don't change at all.
He keeps every promise, and His Word is true.
What He is He says, and what He says He'll do.
Listen to Him...
I am the Lord, and I do not change.
I am the Lord and I do not change,
Kingdoms rise, and kingdoms fall,
But the Lord don't change at all.
No, the Lord don't change at all.
Kingdoms rise, and kingdoms fall,
He wisely, wonderfully holds them all,
Blessed are all those who on Him call,
'Cause the Lord don't change at all.
