Pat Barrett – Hopes For You (Live In Studio)

Keep
Keep your eyes open wide
Keep your head lifted high
You won't want to miss it
Guard
Guard that beautiful heart
It makes you who you are
God knows we need you

Oh, don't ever let your love grow cold
Don't ever think that you're alone
Oh, there's someone looking out for you
Oh, don't settle for the easy road
The hardest things will make you grow
Oh, I've got so many hopes for you

Set
Set your fear on fire
Go headlong to the wild
You'll hardly believe it
Oh and run
Run like you're made of the wind
Like you're weightless again
Hold on to your freedom

Oh, don't ever let your love grow cold
Don't ever think that you're alone
Oh, there's someone looking out for you
Oh, don't settle for the easy road
The hardest things will make you grow
Oh, I've got so many hopes for you
So many hopes for you

Oh, enjoy every moment 'cause you can't ever get it back
Your life is a gift and the best is still up ahead, yeah

Grace
Have some grace for yourself
And have some for everyone else
God knows we need it

Oh, don't ever let your love grow cold
Don't ever think that you're alone
Oh, there's someone looking out for you
Oh, don't settle for the easy road
The hardest things will make you grow
Oh, I've got so many hopes for you

So many hopes for you
So many hopes for you

Hope

Just enjoyed a nice walk with a friend on the canal this morning. Sometimes we get talking about all the goings on in the world. I think it's good to know about it and to talk about it with a friend, but it can almost make me feel like things are a little hopeless, so I think it's important to make sure I don't get stuck in that. On the way home I was listening to 88.9 and all these songs came on that were so full of hope. Thank you Jesus for the hope that you bring. Thank you for creating a way. Thank you that you know me, love me, and that I'm only passing through this crazy world. Help me to be a light in it in the meantime.

Keith & Kristyn Getty - He Will Hold Me Fast (Official Lyric Video)

I feel like I've been stuck in the valley for a bit. I know the news of the goings on in the world can throw me off, and then before I know it I'm looking at the waves and not at my Savior. I know he commands that I keep my eyes on him and not to look at the waves all around me so that I don't sink beneath them, but for some reason I think just one little peek at them won't be bad. Before I know it I've sunk beneath them and they're throwing me, drowning me. I feel helpless, hopeless... and then I remember he hasn't left me, he's still there waiting for me to fix my gaze back on him. 

Keith & Kristyn Getty - My Worth Is Not In What I Own ft. Fernando Orteg...

This song was was sung at today's memorial service of my friend's dad who passed away recently. I thought it was so beautiful.❤️
