U2 - With Or Without You...
I went to see U2 the year this song hit big. I have heard this song probably a million times. So, you would think I'de be sick of it??? I'm not...I mean I don't play it everday..but I still actually get enjoyment when I hear it. On Easter Sunday they played this song in worship. I was really thrown off by that! I've been to churches that are open to new things...but I've never heard them play U2. It may just be me though. I thought it was rather brave to cover a U2. We have some awesome musicians...and they were very on with sound and lyrics. The guy singing looked kinda like a country boy. So I was kinda nervous if the song was going to be ruined. The guy wasn't Bono....but he did a killer job! So impressive...and I didn't realize some of the lyrics of this song! Remember how many times I've probably heard this song? To read the lyrics on the screen...whoa! It was touching. Christ died...He payed the price...and we / I act like it's not enough. I can remember in my teens..just searching for more. I'm careful to title someone as lost...but I really was. Funny but I think I was drunk at the concert walking around with one shoe. Not to mention...I really did loose my freinds that night! I cannot deny the faithfulness of God in my life. I made some crazy choices...and He let me...but He never turned His back on me. He allowed me to make those choices...in return I ended up running Him. He has had His hand on me...even when I had no clue. I had no clue that night at U2 was just part of the little piece of my life that fits in the big picture. Amazing.
