The Call of the Broken

I heard this song the other day and it made me stop in my tracks. Sometimes we don’t stop to listen long enough to hear what the world may be saying to us. This is a song by a band called Sleeping At Last. The lyrics are powerful and can give us some insight into what a relationship with someone who doesn’t know christ could do for a lost person. I don’t think that is what he is talking about in this song but this could be the testimony of one of our new friends if we would take chances and reach out to the world around us.
currents
In this sea of change, understanding is our shore I disappear....with no control The current is strong, my arms are weak But you are the branch within my reach Though I cannot catch my breath.... Pull me back to shore I'll never reach my place Pull me back to shore I'll never reach my place, I'll never reach my place The current is strong, my arms are weak But you are the branch within my reach In this sea of change, understanding was swept away Pull me back to shore I'll never reach my place, I'll never reach my place Pull me back to shore I'll never reach my place, I'll never reach my place With everything I have, I reach out my hands There's nothing to give I seem to have no direction, I have no control No way to know where currents pull All the weight of my intentions Are making it so hard to breathe the air at all I see in you, coastlines reaching out When there's nothing left to reach.... Pull me back to shore I'll never reach my place, I'll never reach my place Pull me back to shore I'll never reach my place, I'll never reach my place

Thomas, I’m an avid ocean fan and being in California makes it nice for me, I’ve been to South Beach too and know how beautiful it is. This songs is great and really calls out much of what draws me to the ocean and God (if He and His love are the proverbial ocean). Thanks for sharing.
Love the blog name too, btw.
