Recommended album



I always appreciate it when someone recommends good, Christian music. I recently bought an album from Sovereign Grace Ministries which I think is worth sharing.

The album is "Looked Upon" by Na Band.

Here are the lyrics from the song "Thy Way, Not Mine". I find the words encouraging because graduate student life has been rough and I need to be reminded that God is lovingly guiding me down on the path. Music has a special way of communicating deep truths.

Verse 1
Thy way, not mine, O Lord
However dark it be
Lead me by Thine own hand
Choose out the path for me, for me

Verse 2
Smooth let it be or rough
It will still be the best
Winding or straight, it leads
Right onward to Thy rest

Chorus 1
I dare not choose my lot
I would not, if I might
Choose Thou for me, my God
So I can walk aright

Verse 3
Take Thou my cup, and it
With joy or sorrow fill
As best to Thee may seem
Choose Thou my good and ill

Chorus 2
Not mine, not mine the choice
In all things great or small
Be Thou my guide, my strength
My wisdom and my all, my wisdom and my all

FYI... This song was originally written in 1857!
