"Even in literature and art, no man who bothers about originality will ever be original: whereas if you simply try to tell the truth (without caring twopence how often it has been told before) you will, nine times out of ten, become original without ever having noticed it." - C.S. Lewis

Cry Out to Jesus!

This is a favorite song of mine that I've been thinking about lately.  It really illustrates God's heart for us - I think it is SO sad when some Christians (or even non-Christians) think God is all about laws and regulations and how you have to be good to get to heaven, because all he really wants to do is love you.  =D  So I hope this encourages you.

"Cry Out to Jesus" by Third Day


To everyone who's lost someone they love
Long before it was their time
You feel like the days you had were not enough
When you said goodbye


And to all of the people with burdens and pains
Keeping you back from your life
You believe that there's nothing and there is no one
Who can make it right


There is hope for the helpless
Rest for the weary
Love for the broken heart
There is grace and forgiveness
Mercy and healing
He'll meet you wherever you are
Cry out to Jesus


For the marriage that's struggling just to hang on
They lost all their faith in love
They've done all they can to make it right again
Still it's not enough


For the ones who can't break the addictions and chains
You try to give up but you come back agains
Just remember that you're not alone in your shame
And your suffering


There is hope for the helpless
Rest for the weary
Love for the broken heart
There is grace and forgiveness
Mercy and healing
He'll meet you wherever you are
Cry out to Jesus


When you're lonely
And it feels like the whole world is falling on you
You just reach out, you just cry out to Jesus
Cry to Jesus


To the widow who suffers from being alone
Wiping the tears from her eyes
For the children around the world without a home
Say a prayer tonight


There is hope for the helpless
Rest for the weary
Love for the broken heart
There is grace and forgiveness
Mercy and healing
He'll meet you wherever you are
Cry out to Jesus
