I wanted to do Lauren Alaina's "Dirt Road Prayer" for you guys today in honour of her new album, but I guess her people are stricter than Scotty's people, cuz her videos all got taken down. So I'll just wait 'til I can post it legally. :P
Anyways... Here's "The Desert Song" by Hillsong. The story of this song so amazing. So, below is the story behind the song, as well as the music video in one video. The actual song starts at around 4:40, but I'd really encourage you to watch the first four minutes.
The lyrics of this song are just so true and encouraging, so have a listen:
Verse 1:
This is my prayer in the desert
And all that's within me feels dry
This is my prayer in my hunger and need
My God is the God who provides
Verse 2:
And this is my prayer in the fire
In weakness or trial or pain
There is a faith proved of more worth than gold
So refine me Lord through the flames
Chorus:
And I will bring praise
I will bring praise
No weapon formed against me shall remain
I will rejoice
I will declare
God is my victory and He is here
Verse 3:
And this is my prayer in the battle
When triumph is still on it's way
I am a conqueror and co-heir with Christ
So firm on His promise I'll stand
Bridge:
All of my life
In every season
You are still God
I have a reason to sing
I have a reason to worship
Verse 4:
This is my prayer in the harvest
When favor and providence flow
I know I'm filled to be emptied again
The seed I've recieved I will sow
Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him that loved us. Romans 8:37
That ia an amazing song. Thank you for sharing.
