Dare you...

Lately there has been a lot going on in my head. I have been contemplating how to relate it to all you out there - and last night, while watching a movie, the words of a song came to me and that's what I want to share. This song has been over played beyond recognition! However, it says what I want to say and haven't been able to.

Dare You To Move

Welcome to the planet
Welcome to existence
Everybody's watching you now
Everybody waits for you now
What happens next?

I dare you to move
I dare you to lift yourself up off the floor
I dare you to move
Like today never happened
Today never happened before

Welcome to the fallout

Welcome to resistance
The tension is here
Between who you are and who you could be
Between how it is and how it should be


Maybe redemption has stories to tell
Maybe forgiveness is right where you fell
Where can you run to escape from yourself?
Where you gonna go?
Wher eyou gonna go?
SALVATION IS HERE

While typing this out I am reminded of another song that to me can coincide.

Dare To Be A Daniel

Standing by a purpose true,
Heeding God’s command,
Honor them, the faithful few!
All hail to Daniel’s band!

Refrain
Dare to be a Daniel,
Dare to stand alone!
Dare to have a purpose firm!
Dare to make it known.

Many mighty men are lost
Daring not to stand,
Who for God had been a host
By joining Daniel’s band.

Many giants, great and tall,
Stalking through the land,
Headlong to the earth would fall,
If met by Daniel’s band.

Hold the Gospel banner high!
On to vict’ry grand!
Satan and his hosts defy,
And shout for Daniel’s band.


Its up to you. Its up to me. The church *sigh*

All I have left to say is...I DARE YOU!
