One song in my mind now... A Christian song, that touches my heart, after hearing it - I got tears in my eyes...
I'm thankful for all these text messages I received from my friends they stood beside me through prayers and let me read this verses in the Bible:
Zech 13:9 I will bring one third through the fire, will refine them as silver is refined, And test them as gold is tested. And I will answer them. I will say, "This is My people" And each one will say "The Lord is my God"
and from
John 16:33 "These things I have spoken to you, that in Me you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation; but be of good cheer, I have overcome the world"
I can only say "God knows what is inside my heart". Even though how much you malign my name character and personality, I know and God knows who I am, and no man can destroy a true believer in God. The world may think I'm a fool but I don't care as I can never control all your presumptions.
The Climb
(written by: Jessi Alexander, Jon Mabe)
I can almost see it,
That dream I'm dreamin'
But theres a voice inside my head sayin'
You'll never reach it
Every step I'm taking
Every move I make feels
Lost with no direction
My faith is shaking
But I gotta keep tryin'
Gotta keep my head held high
Theres always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be a up-hill battle
Sometimes i'm gonna have to lose
Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about whats waiting on the other side
Its the climb
The struggles I'm facing
The chances I'm taking
Sometimes might knock me down
But, No, I'm not breaking
I may not know it
But these are the moments that
I'm gonna remember Most, yeah
Just gotta keep goin'
And, I, I got to be Strong
Just Keep pushing, on
'Cause theres always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be a up-hill battle
Sometimes i'm gonna have to lose
Ain't about how fast I get there
Ain't about whats waiting on the other side
Its The Climb
The Album
"The Climb" is a single released from the "Hannah Montana: The Movie Soundtrack." The movie opened last weekend and garnered a hefty $34 million dollars -- the most for a G-rated live-action movie ever. The soundtrack features a bunch of light, teen-friendly songs. The spotlight is on Hannah Montana, of course, but Rascal Flatts, Taylor Swift and Billy Ray Cyrus all make appearances, as well.
The Song
Miley Cyrus has a winner with “The Climb”. The sound is country-influenced pop, featuring a soft piano intro and Miley's voice, which is incredible for a 16-year-old. Neither the music nor the lyrics are really original, but the song is powerful nonetheless.
“The Climb” is a song about the difficulties of life. It's about how, contrary to what some believe, life is never going to be easy.
Lyric:
There's always gonna be another mountain
I'm always gonna wanna make it move
Always gonna be a uphill battle
Sometimes I'm gonna have to lose
That is the heart song of every Christian as we journey through this life. There is always going to be another mountain. Another friend who doesn't believe in Christ, another person who ridicules you because of your faith, another “good time” missed because you are standing by your convictions.
There will always be a struggle for righteousness, and sometimes you are going to lose. Miley Cyrus is a self-professed Christian, and you can see in this song that she has feeling for what it has meant to take that stand.
If one lyric of this song were different, “The Climb” could even be considered a Christian song, worthy of being sung in church.
Lyric:
Ain't about how fast I get there Ain't about what's waiting on the other side
