Have you ever had a song stuck in your head and you can't remember the song name or who sang it but you have a little piece of it rolling around and around and around? I'm totally there.
I can remember the first part of the chorus (I think...) and it goes "you make me happy, yeah, when I...." something, something, something. It's driving me crazy!!!! It's a pretty upbeat song and it had a female vocalist with a big voice. Let's see...that narrows it down to about a bizillion songs so, yeah. Time to keep looking.
The pathetic, puny piece of this song is going to continue to bounce around my brain until, at some strange moment, the fog will lift and I'll shout out the title like I've just discovered a gold mine in my bathroom. My guess is, 2 a.m. is going to be very interesting tomorrow.

"Hope Now" by Addison Road
Preface: This blog is a little different than my previous posts - I started this blog as part of an English class but I've missed writing since it ended. The focus is still the same but I'm going to explore the music I grew up with a little more...still hope you enjoy it. :-)
Take courage. Let yourself be helped. You will be carried - Someone is out there watching and waiting to pick you up.
Lately, I've just needed to hear that I'm okay from someone else. I spend so much time analyzing my actions and where I am versus who I want to be and where I should be. This song has lifted me up, not only with the feeling of being in good company when I'm a little lost, but also to remember that I've been carried by the Lord more often than not. I forget that so easily, especially when I'm in the midst of struggles and disappointment. It's all about hope...and faith...and being free. We are free when we trust in God. He is so much bigger than we are and we cannot forget that He knows the steps we take every single day. He also knows when we need to be carried.
I’m not my own
I’ve been carried by You
All my life
Everything rides on hope now
Everything rides on faith somehow
When the world has broken me down
Your love sets me free
