Trying To Fit The Ocean In A Cup

The other day I was listening to the radio and I heard the song, "Savior, Please". As I listened, I found myself completely connecting with the words. Then as I thought about it, this song is about everyone.

I try to be so tough

But I'm just not strong enough

I can't do this alone,

God I need You to hold on to me

I try to be good enough

But I'm nothing without Your love

Savior, please keep saving me

So, I went out on a limb and purchased the entire album from iTunes.

I was impressed. The mood of the album is light, relaxed, and enjoyable. When I hear it, it's as though the sun is trying to peak through the clouds. And while the sound is fun, the lyrics continue to make you think. For example, the song "3 Minute Song" says;

I've got a hundred metaphors

And if I had a million more

I could never ever seem to sum this up Besides,

how can some melody

Communicate eternity

It's like trying to fit the ocean in a cup

Other tracks speak about turning around and back to God, stop faking the funk and letting God love us, and not letting money control us.

This is a good, wholesome, God loving album.

I like.
