Favorite Song.

This song, THIS song, THIS SONG, is my favorite song.

Ryan Star is quite possibly my favorite male singer. He is a genius, writes his own music, and has a magical voice. He is truly spectacular and lovely and wonderful.

Watch the music video of "Last Train Home" here.

"Last Train Home" is just gorgeous. I'll post the lyrics...

You haven’t changed.
Stand in the light,
I need to see you,
uncover my eyes.
The tears coming down,
making lines on your face.
One for each year, now
that you’ve been away.

We were only kids,
we ran like water.
Your dad said,
stay away from my daughter.
The sun was coming down when I said,
can’t you just believe?

And if you wait for me,
I’ll be the light in the dark if you lose your way.
And if you wait for me,
I’ll be your voice when you don’t know what to say.
I’ll be your shelter,
I’ll be your fate.
I’ll be forever,
wait for me.
I’ll be the last train,
I’ll be the last train home.

You were a storm,
it blew us away.
I wouldn’t leave you,
but you couldn’t stay.

We were only kids,
we ran like water.
Your dad said,
stay away from my daughter.
The sun was coming down when I said,
can’t you just believe?

And if you wait for me,
I’ll be the light in the dark if you lose your way.
And if you wait for me,
I’ll be your voice when you don’t know what to say.
I’ll be your shelter,
I’ll be your fate.
I’ll be forever,
wait for me.
I’ll be the last train,
I’ll be the last train home.

We were only kids,
we ran like water.
I told your dad,
I love your daughter.
The sun was coming down when I said,
Hallie just believe.

And if you wait for me,
I’ll be the light in the dark if you lose your way.
And if you wait for me,
I’ll be your voice when you don’t know what to say.
I’ll be your shelter,
I’ll be your fate.
I’ll be forever,
wait for me.
I’ll be the last train,
I’ll be the last train,
Hold on to love,
and wait for me.
I’ll be the last train,
I’ll be the last train home.
I’ll be the last train,
I’ll be your last train home

Surrounded.

Today I am reminded that God's beauty surrounds us at all times.

There is nothing more beautiful then seeing an old couple raising their hands in praise during intense worship or seeing a young girl's eyes sparkle with joy at the sight of a burning candle representing God's light. No matter where I am or how I feel God's beauty can always be found...and this is oh so comforting. Whether it's some random flowers outside of Walmart or a good cup of coffee or the face of someone you love, God's beauty shines in every part of this earth...even in the places we consider "dark"

Thought of the day.....
