I can't stay out of this thread. This song I just heard for the first time over the weekend while I was with the Salesians. This was one of the songs that was sung while we were at the Visitation. It was the only song that stayed in my head the most. It's perfect for Lent and for Vocations. I cried for most of the song.

"Be Still, My Love" by David Kauffman

 

The choir at Church has sung this alone during the offertory a few times but it's not in our hymn books.  I love this song and it moves me to tears.  It was perfect today -- Divine Mercy Sunday.

I'm not sure if I posted this before but I love this song by Danielle Rose.  I just absolutely love the lyrics.  It's especially good to listen to during Easter.

 

"Follow Me" by Danielle Rose

 

If you lose your life for the sake of my name,

If you leave behind all fortune and fame,

Then my heart shall be your home,

Every child shall be your own.

One grain falls to the ground and a thousand are sown.

Follow me, follow me.

 

Chorus:

I've called you by name,

I call you my friend,

From now on you'll be fishers of men,

Cast out all fear,

Put out in the deep,

Take up your cross and follow me.

 

You will hold the heart of the world in your hands,

You will hold the Flesh and the Blood of the Lamb,

As you lay down your life for the Body of Christ,

You will stand in my place offering sacrifice,

For the sheep, a good shepherd for the sheep.

 

(Chorus)

 

Do you love me?

Yes, Lord, I love you.

Do you love me?

You know that I love you.

Do you love me?

You know everything; you know that I love you.

Feed my sheep.

I will feed your sheep.

 

(Chorus)

 

I will follow you, Lord.

Take up your cross,

I will take up my cross and follow You.

This song was one of the songs that was used during my spring retreat. I fell in love with it so quickly because of how true it really is.

And this song I hope I hear instantly when I find my true home

"Nothing Compares to You" by Danielle Rose. No video on YouTube yet, but it's on Spotify!

"Pursue Me" by Danielle Rose

 

Was that you, Lord, calling to me?

A voiceless word within me speaks,

And you declare what you desire,

To have my heart with you forever.

 

I'm so afraid to die, O God,

To lose my life,

To choose the cross,

But when I fall in love with You,

Then I'll arise to life anew.

 

Chorus:

Pursue me, Lord.

Pursue me, Lord.

Pursue me, Lord.

I'll let you lead.

 

Then you stretch your loving arms,

Across the world into my heart,

Why do I run from the love you long to give?

The love I seek?

 

(Chorus)

 

I did not choose you,

You have chosen me,

To go bear fruit abundantly,

I did not choose you,

You have chosen me, O God.

In your mercy...

 

(Chorus x 2)

 

I'll let you lead. (x 2)

 

Pursue me, Lord.
