y'all.
seriously, you need this album.
i cannot stop listening to it.

it's an emotional roller coaster ride.
i go from singing at the top of my lungs to tearing up to closing my eyes in deep prayer.

so many golden moments, so many truthful, poetic lyrics...
i can't believe how much i love this album already.

So I'll be bold
As well as strong
And use my head alongside my heart
So take my flesh
And fix my eyes
That tethered mind free from the lies

But I'll kneel down
Wait for now
I'll kneel down
Know my ground

Raise my hands
Paint my spirit gold
And bow my head
Keep my heart slow

Cause I will wait, I will wait for you

these songs seem to be speaking to my soul, to the place where we are right now.

the waiting, the longing, the struggle to cling to God through the drought, the fear and lies that try so hard to make us give up...

:(
boo.
but hey, it's progress and a step closer!

thank you all for your prayers!
