Soundtrack of my Life

One of my friends posted something similar on their blog... a soundtrack of their life. And since I'm such a music fanatic and I always have a song running through my head, I thought it would be fun to go through my music and pick out the songs that I would put on my soundtrack of life. So here's the list folks... all GREAT music and I highly recommend it.

1. "Unashamed" - Starfield
"I have not much to offer you. Not near what you deserve. But still I come because your cross, has placed in me my worth. Oh Christ. My king of sympathy whose wounds secure my peace. Your grace extends to call me friend, Your mercy sets me free. CUZ I KNOW I'M WEAK I KNOW I'm UN WORTHY TO CALL UPON YOUR NAME. BUT BECAUSE OF GRACE, BECAUSE OF YOUR MERCY I STAND HERE UNASHAMED."

2. "My Wish" - Rascal Flatts
"My wish for you is that this life becomes all that you want it to your dreams stay big, your worries stay small. You never need to carry more than you can hold and while you're out there gettin where you're gettin to, I hope you know someone loves you and wants the same things to."

3. "What Have I Done?" - Adie Camp
"What have I done, LORD Jesus, to deserve Your endless love? What have I done, LORD Jesus, to worthy of Your grace? What have I done, LORD Jesus, to be standing here with You. What have I done, LORD Jesus, to be worthy of You. FOR I AM NOTHING YET YOU LOVE ME AND I AM NO ONE YET YOU CARE."

4. "Beautiful" - Bethany Dillon
"I wanna be beautiful. Make You stand in awe. Look inside my heart and be amazed. I wanna hear You say who I am is quite enough. Just wanna be worthy of love and beautiful."

5. "If you Want me to" - Ginny Owens
"The pathway is broken and the signs are unclear and I don't know the reason why You brought me here. But just because You love me, the way that You do, I will walk through the valley if You want me to. BECAUSE I'M NOT WHO I WAS WHEN I TOOK MY FIRST STEP AND I'M CLINGING TO THE PROMISE YOU'RE NOT THROUGH WITH ME YET."

6. "Walk by Faith" - Jeremy Camp (It wouldn't be my soundtrack without him :) )
"Will I believe you when You say, Your hand will guide my every way. Will I receieve the words you say, every moment of every day? I will walk by faith even when I cannot see. Because Your broken road, prepares Your Will for me."

7. "Light" - DC Talk
"The disease of self runs through my blood. It's a cancer fatal to my soul. Every attempt on my behalf has failed to bring this sickness under control. Tell me what's going on inside of me. I despise my own behavior. This only serves to confirm my suspicions that I'm still a man in need of a savior.... Oh Lord be my light and be my salvation cuz all I want is to be in the light."

8. "Broken World" - Across the Sky
"Promises shattered. Answers don't come. Friends say Goodbye. Plans come undone. Dreams get crushed. Lies get told. Words can turn cruel. Hearts can grow cold. In a broken world where we cry to feel some hope that helps these hearts to heal. You're my strength. You're my refuge. In a broken world, Jesus, I'm holding to You."

9. "Average Girl" - Barlowgirl
"No more dating. I'm just waiting. Like sleeping beauty my prince will come for me...cuz God is writing my love story.... If you get tired of waiting until he comes, God's arms are the perfect place to run."

10. "Worthy of my Praise " - Selah
"I will follow You through green pastures and sing Hallelujah to Your name. I will follow You through dark disasters and sing Hallelujah through the pain. Even in the shadow of death, I will praise you. Even in the valley I will sing."

11. "Be Like That" - Three Doors Down
"If I could be like that, I would give anything just to live one day in those shoes. If I could be like that, what would I do?"

12. "Have you ever?" - Shawn McDonald
"Have you ever wanted to be someone else? Have you ever wanted to be someone? Have you ever wanted to reach your dreams? Have you ever wanted life to be more than it seems?"

13. "I'm not who I was" - Brandon Heath
"I wish you could see me now. I wish I could tell you how I'm not who I was. Used to be mad at you a little on the hurt side too, but I'm not who I was. I found my way to forgiving you sometime ago, but I never got to tell you so."


14. "East to West" - Casting Crowns
"Don't wanna end up where you found, and it echos in my mind, keeps me awake tonight. Lord you cast my sin as far as the east is from the west.... But today I feel like I'm just one mistake away from you leaving me this way."

15. "For you to notice" - Dashboard Confessional
"I'm starting to fashion an idea in my head where I would impress you with everything I said. But for now I look so longingly, waiting for you to want me. For you to need me. For you to notice me."

16. "Special Friend" - Jordan Hill
"Every now and then you find a special friend who never lets you down. Who understands it all, reaches out each time you fall, you're the best friend that I've found."

17. "Everything" - Lifehouse
"Find me here. Speak to me. I want to feel You. I need to hear You. You are the light that's leading me to the place where I find peace again. You are the hope that keeps me walking. You are the hope that keeps me trusting. You are the light into my soul. You are my purpose. You're everything."

18. "Falling off the Face of the Earth" - Matt Wertz
"Stay away from me, I'll be gone soon. It's just so hard to let go once we've grabbed hold. It's nothing that you've done. You're not the only one. I'm just learning to be in twenty-three places. Cuz I've falling off the face of the earth, crashing into bridges I've burned."

19. "Bring the Rain" - Mercy Me
"I can count a million times people asking me how I can praise even after all that I've gone through. The question just amazes me, circumstances possibly change who I forever am in You? Maybe since my life was changed long before these rainy days it's never really ever crossed my mind to turn my back on You oh LORD, my only shelter from the storm."

20. "In Better Hands" - Natalie Grant
"It's hard to stand on shifting sands. It's hard to shine in the shadow of the night. You can't be free, if you don't reach for help and you can't love if you don't love yourself. Cuz there is hope when my faith runs out, cuz I'm in better hands now."


There you have it. My life in 20 songs :)
