For the record, everyone here at NeedTheSpirit has been a fan of Lauren Daigle since day one. From her album – Look Up Child to the inspiration of How Can It Be, Lauren has always been a go to when our spirits need “filling up”
On May 1, 2019 something amazing happened. With just under eight million people watching their TV’s we see Lauren standing on top of a small platform, ready to perform her hit You Say. What happens next will take your breath away.
It sends shivers down my spine to know that millons of people around the world are listening to this song. I am not exargerating when i say this. Despite the Billboard Awards having performances from mega superstarts such as The Jonas Brother and Mariah Carey, it was Luaren’s performance that was the most “Shazamed” act of the night.
What an inspiring night that will be in the minds and hearts of millions of people for years to come. God Bless PJSLB
My walk with Christ has been one big soundtrack. I can hear a song and immediately go back to a time when i head this song. Songs that remind of of the power of God (God’s Not Dead – Newsboys) to the inspiration that i need at that particuar moment (Lauren Daigle.)
Lately, my “go to song” has been Tauren Wells – Hills and Valleys. According to his Wiki page, Tauren has been in the music industry for more than 15 years. The song i am currently in love with Hills and Valleys peaked at number 3 in the charts in 2017. The song speaks to me with where i am at in my walk with Christ. I have been through the highs and the lows of life and i recognize that in it all, Jesus has been with me the whole time. Such a beautiful song that is beautifully wrttien and speaks to the heart. I hope you enjoy. God Bless – PJSLB.
I’ve walked among the shadows
You wiped my tears away
And I’ve felt the pain of heartbreak
And I’ve seen the brighter days
And I’ve prayed prayers to Heaven
From my lowest place
And I have held Your blessings
God, You give and take away
No matter what I have, Your grace is enough
No matter where I am, I’m standing in Your love
On the mountains, I will bow my life
To the One who set me there
In the valley, I will lift my eyes
To the One who sees me there
When I’m standing on the mountain
I didn’t get there on my own
When I’m walking through the valley
I know I am not alone
You’re God of the hills and valleys
Hills and valleys
God of the hills and valleys
And I am not alone
I’ve watched my dreams get broken
In You, I hope again
No matter what I know
I’m safe inside Your hands
On the mountains, I will bow my life
To the One who set me there (to the One who set me there)
In the valley, I will lift my eyes
To the One who sees me there
When I’m standing on the mountain
I didn’t get there on my own
When I’m walking through the valley
I know I am not alone
You’re God of the hills and valleys
Hills and valleys
God of the hills and valleys
And I am not alone
Father, You give and take away
Every joy and every pain
Through it all, You will remain
Over it all
Father, You give and take away
Every joy and every pain
Through it all, You will remain
Over it all
On the mountains, I will bow my life, yeah
In the valley, I will lift my eyes, yeah
On the mountains, I will bow my life
To the One who set me there (to the One who set me there)
In the valley, I will lift my eyes
To the One who sees me there
When I’m standing on the mountain
I didn’t get there on my own
When I’m walking through the valley
I know I am not alone (I’m not alone)
You’re God of the hills and valleys (yeah)
Hills and valleys
God of the hills and valleys (You’re the God of the hills)
And I am not alone
You’re God of the hills and valleys (yeah)
Hills and valleys
God of the hills and valleys (You’re the God of the hills)
And I am not alone (God of the valleys)
And I will choose to say
Blessed be Your Name
And I am not alone
Just had my first run thru with Lauren Daigle’s new album; Look Up Child. Absolutely…inspiring. It has the hit, You Say but the song that is on repeat now for me is Rescue. Lyrics such as this just put me at peace…
I will send out an army to find You
In the middle of the darkest night
It’s true, I will rescue you
I will never stop marching to reach you
In the middle of the hardest fight
It’s true, I will rescue you
I have a feeling that this album will be on repeat for the foreseeable future.
Out of all the artist in this night, my family was most excited for David Dunn and he did not disappoint. My daughters (especially my youngest) loved the two man set up and using the “computer” as she calls it to make the music. Seems like David loved hearing this.
The song everyone (including my kids) was waiting for was the last song played ; I Wanna Go Back. The lyrics of the song are beautiful. We all had a time in our journey with Christ when our relationship was simplistic and personal. As time goes on, we lost that intimacy.
I wish I took more pictures but to be honest, I was on my feet the whole time just soaking in the moment.
