You Are Loved (Don't Give Up) by Josh Groban

I just ran across this song today. I've only listened to a little bit of Josh Groban before, but I guess I forgot what a beautiful voice he has. This song is so moving. This song feels, to me, like a little reminder from God that He is always there... Don't give up... You are loved... Amen.



You Are Loved (Don't Give Up) by Josh Groban

Don't give up
It's just the weight of the world
When your heart's heavy
I...I will lift it for you

Don't give up
Because you want to be heard
If silence keeps you
I...I will break it for you

Everybody wants to be understood
Well I can hear you
Everybody wants to be loved
Don't give up
Because you are loved

Don't give up
It's just the hurt that you hide
When you're lost inside
I...I will be there to find you

Don't give up
Because you want to burn bright
If darkness blinds you
I...I will shine to guide you

Everybody wants to be understood
Well I can hear you
Everybody wants to be loved
Don't give up
Because you are loved

You are loved
Don't give up
It's just the weight of the world
Don't give up
Every one needs to be heard
You are loved

Lead me to the Cross by Hillsong

This song speaks to my heart, especially during times that I feel the tug of darkness. Sometimes my heart's cry is to be lead to the cross and to be in Christ's presence. When I can't seem to find my own way, it's good to know that the Lord will lead me back to Him... I just have to ask.



Lead me to the Cross by Hillsong

Savior I come, I quiet my soul, remember
Redemption's hill where Your blood was spilled
For my ransom, yeah, yeah

Oh and everything I once held dear
I count it all as lost

And lead me to the cross where Your love poured out
Bring me to my knees, Lord, I lay me down
And rid me of myself, I belong to You
Oh, lead me, lead me to the cross

You were as, I tempted and trialed, human
Word became flesh, bore my sin and death
Now You're risen, yeah

Oh and everything I once held dear
I count it all as lost

And lead me to the cross where Your love poured out
And bring me to my knees, Lord, I lay me down
And rid me of myself, I belong to You
Oh lead me, oh, lead me, lead me to Your heart

Lead me to Your heart
Lead me to Your heart
Lead me to Your heart

Lead me to the cross where Your love poured out
And bring me to my knees, Lord, I lay me down
And rid me of myself, I belong to You
Oh lead me, lead me, lead me, lead me
Lead me to the cross, lead me to the cross, yeah
