My Morning Serenade

Almost every morning, my daughters and I listen to the same song on our way to school. Track 18 on David Crowder’s A Collision. The song is called We Win, and the repeating line is "Shout loud, loud until the walls come down".

The CD has been living in my car for some time, but the last few weeks, Robyn has started singing along. Well in the last few days, Bethany has started singing along as well. So now, every morning, I get to worship with my girls on the way to school.

After I drop them off, I listen to the next three tracks, Rescue Is Coming, A Conversation, and A Lark Ascending. This whole album has been a real insight into worship and my place in the Kingdom, but these three tracks have become my morning boost to get me going.

Everyday, a different line seems to strike me, and this morning it was "the ground pulls at my feet". How often does the weight of the world pull us down when God planned for us to soar? We are called to lead others, in life and in worship, and yet the ground keeps pulling us down.

I found a site a few weeks ago that includes a lot of David Crowder’s thoughts on this whole album, but also the complete transcript of A Conversation, including the part that gets drowned out once he starts singing.
