Keep Singing

Yesterday's song reminded me that I've never shared the song that has turned out to be a stronghold for me during my journey. It was shared to me by a good friend and I'd like to share the lyrics with you:

Keep Singing by Mercy Me

Another rainy day
I can't recall having sunshine on my face
All I feel is pain
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
Your the one that's keeping my heart beating
I gotta keep singing
I 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

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 


I ended up turning to those lyrics a lot  over the last few months. I've needed the reminder in my down times. I don't have times where I don't know where to turn as much any more, but the lyrics and listening to the song continues to be a big help to me.


I think there were times along this journey that I stopped singing. I admit it. But I always turned to this song, which guided me back to the right track and my song could be heard again.


My song was still rather faint and quiet though.


Now that I've realized who is in charge and who is in control of healing, my song is a little bit louder. My song is more joyful. I'm keepin' on singin' - praising the name of God. 


And now my song is louder than ever. I hope you can "hear" it when you see me.
