If one album were a salve for the hurting heart, I submit it might be "Speakeasy" by Stavesacre.
I have been spending the week in Psalm 13. At one moment, I was stricken with the comparison of one song by Stavesacre and its connection to Psalm 13. Take a look at the connection.
PSALM 13 How long, O Lord? Will you forget me forever? How long will you hide your face from me? How long must I wrestle with my thoughts and every day have sorrow in my heart? How long will my enemy triumph over me?
Look on me and answer, O LORD my God. Give light to my eyes, or I will sleep in death; my enemy will say, "I have overcome him," and my foes will rejoice when I fall.
But I trust in your unfailing love; my heart rejoices in your salvation.
I will sing to the LORD, for he has been good to me.
FREEFALL (Hand to Hand) by Stavesacre
Sleepless eyes open wide. Before Heaven I stand again If there's no winning this war tonight, I was wondering
If you could steady my spinning head.
And trusting gets harder now I wish you were here beside me My failures, my fears and doubts have been haunting me I'm just not who I thought I'd be
Freefall weightless and terrified On I go crossing over from living to so alive And purified I know weeping is cast for the night
And joy...
Thought I was a good man and fell short of my standards Now what am I left with. All of nothing And my first taste of freedom
Freefall weightless and terrified On I go crossing over from living to so alive And purified. I know weeping is cast for the night And joy...
If I fall down If I fail you When I fall down When I fail you I hope to find you there I hope to find you there I know I'll find you there I've always found you there
Freefall weightless and terrified On I go crossing over from living to so alive And purified I know weeping is cast for the night But joy comes in the morning.
