Sometimes one phrase in a song will stick out and catch your attention. That's what this thread is for. What have you heard in a song lately that made you stop and think?


"Love and pride can't occupy
The same spaces, baby
And only one of them makes you free"

- Sara Groves



You can worry about love
You can worry about hate
You can worry about the judgment Day
But you can't praise God
When you worry that way

- Lewis Family

Cant live by what I feel, but by the truth His word reveals, I'm not holding on to Him, Hes holding on to me- East to West, Casting Crowns.

Tell me how many times can this story be told
After all of these years it should all sound so old
But it somehow rings true in the back of my mind
As I search for a dream that words can no longer define.

I have that song.

That line always reminds me of a line from another song:
I believe what I believe
It's what makes me what I am
I did not make it, no it is making me
It is the very truth of God
Not the invention of any man

If we want peace on Earth
It's all up to us
He said blessed are the peacemakers
And he didn't mean the guns

Good question. I always attribute to the artist if I know, but this one I'm not sure where it came from.

All the complicated wars
They end pretty simple
Here where the lights go out
And we roll to the middle

Maybe Tracy Chapman? (Song "Why" lyrics) :)

Why do the babies starve
When there's enough food to feed the world?
Why when there are so many of us
Are there people still alone?
Why are the missiles called peace keepers
When they're aimed to kill?
Why is a woman still not safe
When she's in her home?

In the temple they only examined the lamb
Not the one for whom it was slain
And though I'm not perfect, my sacrifice is

He may be our heavenly father
But he's not our old man
We may all be family
But we don't force his hand



...I might possibly, occasionally, steal a thought from a song and use it as a sermon topic point.

Though I've tried before to tell her
Of the feelings I have for her in my heart
Every time that I come near her
I just lose my nerve as I've done from the start

Every little thing she does is magic
Everything she do just turns me on
Even though my life before was tragic
Now I know my love for her goes on

I wake up in teardrops that fall down like rain
I put on that old song we danced to and then
I head off to my job
Guess not much has changed
Punch the clock, head for home
Check the phone, just in case
Go to bed, dream of you
That's what I'm doing these days

We used to listen to the radio
And sing along with every song we know
We said, "Someday we'd find out how it feels
To sing to more than just the steering wheel"

All the way from the east to the west we
Got this high society
Looking down on their very foundation
Constantly reminding us that our actions
Are the cause of all their problems
Pointing their fingers in every
Direction and blaming their
Own nation for who wins the elections
They've never contributed a [expletive] thing to the
Country they love to criticize

Critical Acclaim (Avenged Sevenfold)

This one...The lyrics of this song always makes me cry..How could God love someone like me... 😭


"Who am I, that the eyes that see my sin
Would look on me with love
And watch me rise again?
Who am I, that the voice that calmed the sea
Would call out through the rain
And calm the storm in me? ❤ -Casting Crowns

In a moment
Life can pass you by
But in a moment
You can come alive

It's here for you this minute
So live before you die
Make sure that you're listening
Here it comes, don't let it pass you by

I may never know
I should just let go
Do I really want a God
That I can understand?

- Rachael Lampa
