Lyric Friday

Every Friday I will post the lyrics to a song, and if I can find a video or the track to listen to I will post that with it. At first I wasn't sure about committing myself to anything weekly, but I will give it a try. For me the lyrics of songs can be really powerful, and can speak to any situation I am going through at the time. They have a way of answering questions and making me think. I don't know if it is the same for everyone else or not? But, I want to share a song this week that I heard last night on the radio. It is called "This Could Be Our Day" by Addison Road:

What we do here is just the beginning
New life is starting at every ending
We are a part of the story unfolding
This is the weight of the world we are holding
this could be our day
this could be our day (3rd& 4th time)

Clearly it's time to make a change
Or i could keep sitting and waste all day
I know that it's time for me to move
I've been given this minute to use
And given this moment to prove that

Chorus

I was holding back
Now I've come undone
I want to touch the world
Heal the broken ones
Ending the cycle has just begun
We've been given this minute to use
And given this life to prove

Chorus

To give ourselves away
For something beautiful
a million miles away
to the one who's hungry, and thirsty
And needs some hope
To the people that are weary and
broken and left alone
I'm giving myself away
I've giving myself away

Chorus

What I see in the message of this song, is that we no longer waste our life, but instead we help others with the time that we would use just sitting and doing nothing that is of importance. I hope this song gets everyone thinking what they can do to help people who are in need.

Here is the song from Youtube.
