"You Put This Love in My Heart!"
*sigh*
This is the first song I EVER remember truly loving. I had this dude, Keith Green, on a cd when I was five. I played this song in particular on repeat for as long as I can remember being five. And then....I scratched the cd really bad, so it stopped playing.
:moment of silence:
And forgot the singers name, as well as the name of the song. Eventually it faded from my mind, the only memories remaining being the words "green", "love in my heart", a rockin' piano beat, and staying up late singing in my bunkbed while trying to make sure nobody could hear myself or the cd player.
....and thanks, wikipedia, for that awful news. Apparently he's dead, and has been for a while. Died at 28 along with two of his sons in a plane crash. *sigh*
I found it hard to believe
Someone like you cared for me
You put this love in my heart
I tried but could not refuse
You gave me no time to choose
You put this love in my heart
I want to know where the bad feelings go
When I'm depressed and I get down so low
And then I see you coming to me and it's alright
I want to tell you right now
I'm not afraid to say how
You put this love in my heart
There are sometimes when I doubt
But you always find me out
You put this love in my heart
Cause when I see all that you've done for me
It's hard to doubt, I just have to believe
Cause you followed and proved it all of your life
Well I know
the loneliness I had before
Is gone now
I'll never feel it anymore
Cause your love has released me
From all that's in my past
And I know I can believe you
When you say I'll never be forsaken
Your love is gonna last
There's so much more I should say
If I could just find a way
You put this love in my heart
Is all this real or a dream
I feel so good I could scream
You put this love in my heart
I want to know where the bad feelings go
When I'm depressed and I get down so low
And then I see you coming to me and it's alright
You put this love in my heart
You put this love in my heart
You put this love in my heart

oh gosh! I love Keith Green. A lot. Mary Claire, if you haven't already, you have GOT to read his biography, if you give me your address [CREEPER!] I'll send you my copy. He was, wow, sick talented and above all he love God like nobody's business. I grew up on his music, Stained Glass and Make My Life a Prayer to You are probably my favorites. Some days, this song is my theme song. "I wanna know where the bad feelings go, I see You coming to me, and it's all right."
OH YAY! That'd be awesome. I was so disappointed to find out he died...I never really got to know that much about him, since I was so young. (internet was still a foreign concept when I was five! We only had one, and never used it. weird..)
I find it funny that the song almost celebrates predestination. ;)
(hehe, I have no idea what your views on it are.)
