Or if...Well, if you want my two cents, here it is. Or if you don't! haha.<br /><br />First, I don't know this "Here I am" song, but I for one am always concerned about songs that put words in God's mouth. Most of the time, such songs are written by non-Catholics. It just seems wrong to me that we all sing songs that seem to presume God saying different things. To me, if it ain't in the Scripture and it ain't in tradition, God didn't say it!!<br /><br />Second of all, I think "Anyway" would be a good choice. You mention one great line, but there are others. Like, "You can spend you whole life singing, a song you believe in, that tomorrow they're forget you ever sang." That line always got me: somehow the things we care about most, and spend all of our time focusing on, might be forgotten by others. If we spend our whole life concerned about the right things, well, years from now our story will be lost. But that doesn't mean we shouldn't spend our lives that way! The song also talks about BUILDING, BELIEVING, and LOVING. I think those are some important things to think about in the Christian life.<br /><br />Well, whatever you go with, I'm sure it will be great!! I am looking forward to reading about it on the blog!!Mike Keucherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12541290460152435239noreply@blogger.com
