New CD, New Favorite Song...

For Christmas, Andy gave me Jon Foreman's album "Limbs & Branches".  For those of you who don't know, Jon Foreman is the lead singer of Switchfoot.  He has put out multiple solo albums and this CD is the best of two of them.  There is one song in particular that I do not think I will ever get tired of listening to:

Your Love is Strong

Heavenly Father 
You always amaze me
Let your kingdom come 
In my world and in my life
Give me the food I need 
To live through today
And forgive me as I forgive 
The people who wronged me
Lead me far from temptation
Deliver me from the evil one

I look out the window 
The birds are composing
Not a note is out of tune 
Or out of place
I look at the meadow 
And stare at the flowers
Better dressed than any girl 
On her wedding day


So why do I worry?
Why do I freak out?
God knows what I need
You know what I need

Your love is
Your love is
Your love is strong

The kingdom of the heavens 
Is now advancing
Invade my heart 
Invade this broken town
The kingdom of the heavens 
Is buried treasure
Will you sell yourself 
To buy the one you've found?

Two things you told me
That you are strong
And you love me
Yes, you love me

Our God in heaven
Hallowed be
Thy name above all names
Your kingdom come
Your will be done
On earth as it is in heaven
Give us today our daily bread
Forgive us wicked sinners
Lead us far away from our vices
And deliver us from these prisons
