Does it happen to you that you listen to songs on repeat?
I remember on time I listened to a song by Eve 6 so much that I actually had a boss ask me to listen to another song hahaha
Last week the song "Oh God" ended up on my playlist and it's been on repeat the last couple days. The truth is that even surrounded by so many people, I feel incredibly lonely and all by myself, thankfully my feelings are not the boss of me and I know that's not true. I know this is just a seasons and seasons change. I know that hard things bring growth. Stretching makes us strong and flexible. I know all this but I also know that sometimes it's just hard and prayer is what carries us from one step to the next.
During this song, I have cried, cheered excitedly, I feel like I've felt it all this week. Worship gives us the words our hearts can't find.
This is the music of my heart these days. The lyrics are below.
Romans 8:31-39
God's Everlasting Love
31 What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be[i] against us? 32 He who did not spare his own Son but gave him up for us all, how will he not also with him graciously give us all things? 33 Who shall bring any charge against God's elect? It is God who justifies. 34 Who is to condemn? Christ Jesus is the one who died—more than that, who was raised—who is at the right hand of God, who indeed is interceding for us.[j] 35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or danger, or sword? 36 As it is written,
In the valley, Oh God, you're near
In the quiet, Oh God, you're near
In the shadow, Oh God, you're near
At my breaking, Oh God, you're near
Oh God, you never leave my side
Your love will stand firm for all my life
In my searching, Oh God, you're near
In my wandering, Oh God, you're near
When I feel alone, Oh God, you're near
At my lowest, Oh God, you're near
Height nor depth nor anything else
Could pull us apart
We are joined as one by your blood
Hope will rise as we become more
Than conquerors through
The one who loved the world
Oh God, you never leave my side
Your love will stand firm for all my life
Oh God, you never leave my side
Your love will stand firm for all my life
Oh God, you never leave my side
Your love will stand firm for all my life

we are regarded as sheep to be slaughtered.”
37 No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. 38 For I am sure that neither death nor life, nor angels nor rulers, nor things present nor things to come, nor powers, 39 nor height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.
In the valley, Oh God, you're near

Oh God, you never leave my side
Your love will stand firm for all my life
Oh God, you never leave my side
Your love will stand firm for all my life
Oh God, you never leave my side
Your love will stand firm for all my life
