Then Sings My Soul Saturday - "Testify to Love"

|




I truly believe we were put on this earth to praise God and to testify to others of His love. I love how this song states that very thing... "With every breath I take I will give thanks to God above, For as long as I shall live, I will testify to love". Yes, this is what I want for my life... to testify of His love to all I encounter. And, to do so with a JOYFUL heart!








Testify to Love
sung by Avalon

All the colors of the rainbow
All of voices of the wind
Every dream that reaches out
That reaches out to find where love begins
Every word of every story
Every star in every sky
Every corner of creation lives to testify

For as long as I shall live
I will testify to love
I'll be a witness in the silences when words are not enough
With every breath I take I will give thanks to God above
For as long as I shall live
I will testify to love

From the mountains to the valleys
From the rivers to the sea
Every hand that reaches out
Every hand that reaches out to offer peace
Every simple act of mercy
Every step to kingdom come
All the Hope in every heart will speak what love has done

Hey there, FRIEND! I've MISSED you! I was in a "slump" earlier in the week so I started attempting to keep myself REALLY BUSY! (And BUSY I have been!) The down side? I've had VERY LITTLE time to "play" online with my bloggy buddies. (I've MISSED you gals!)
;-)

Now, I LOVE the song you shared.. it's SO UPBEAT and inspirational. GREAT CHOICE!

Okay.. I hope to be back into my "normal routine" next week. I'm looking forward to visiting again.

HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!
LOVE YOU! =-)

I absolutely love this song! I am reminded of an awesome human video I saw the youth group do to this song at church one year, what a powerful song, thanks for reminding me of it. I may have to add it to my ipod for my morning walks!
