Dream In Soul – Creativity for the Kingdom:

Be encouraged by this song by Israel & New Breed from the album “Jesus At The Center”, their first live recording in 5 years featuring 18 brand new songs were recorded live at Lakewood Church in Houston TX.

It’s not over, it’s not finished, it’s not ending – it’s only the beginning. When God is in it, all things are new…

Verse 1
I know it’s darkest just before dawn
This might just be the hardest season you’ve experienced
I know it hurts; it won’t be too long
You’re closer than you think you are
You’re closer than you’ve been before

Pre-Chorus
So look to the sky
Help is on the way
Our God is faithful
He’s faithful to say

Verse 2
Something is moving
Turning around
Seasons are changing
Everything is different now
Here comes the sun
Piercing the clouds
You’re closer than you think you are
You’re closer than you’ve been before

Bridge
When God is in it
There is no limit
When God is in it
It’s not over, It’s not over!
(Repeat)

So take me to that place Lord,
To that secret place where
I can be with you and
You can make me like you
Wrap me in your arms…

This song always brings me to a deeper longing for His presence, from William McDowell and Blanca Callahan (of Group 1 Crew), As We Worship Live album.

“One Desire” Lyrics

Here I am
Just for You, only You
Here I stand
Wanting You, only You

In Your presence Lord
I will find my strength
You’re the breath in me
You’re my everything

With my heart bowed low
And my hands held high
All consuming fire
You’re my one desire

“Let It Go” is a beautiful and moving song from Mandy Gawley‘s debut album, “Life So Sweet” that inspires us to let go of the hardships in life that we can’t control and to place them in God’s hands:

I can see the weight on your shoulders
I can tell how much pain you feel
And it’s tempting your heart to turn colder
But believe me, in time it can heal

Just keep movin’ on ‘cause the past is gone
And what’s done is done

Let it go, lay it down
Oh there’s no use carryin’
The burden around
Don’t you know?
It’s okay to let it go…

– From the song “Let it Go”
