Title: When you are down what Christian songs lift you up?
Post by: SarahM777 on March 26, 2011, 04:46:32 PM
We all have times when we are feeling really down and out and i as i do have a few songs that i have found that really lift my spirit and i thought i would like to share and maybe you may have some that i haven't heard before and they can also help.

The one that helps me so..... much right now is

Call my name by Third day


It's been so long since you felt like you were loved
So what went wrong
But do you know there's a place where you belong
Here in my arms

When you feel like you're alone in your sadness
And it seems like no one in this whole world cares
And you want to get away from the madness
You just call my name and I'll be there
You just call my name and I'll be there

The pain inside has erased your hope for love
But soon you will find
That I'll give you all that your heart could ever want
And so much more

You just call my name
You just call my name

Call my name, say it now
I want you to never doubt
The love I have for you is so alive

Call my name, say it now
I want you to never doubt
The love I have for you is so alive

You just call my name
You just call my name
You just call my name now

The love I have for you is so alive
The love I have for you is so alive
You just call my name
You just call my name
You just call my name

For me it is the group MercyMe and the song "I Can Only Imagine."


I can only imagine
What it will be like
When I walk
By your side

I can only imagine
What my eyes will see
When your face
Is before me
I can only imagine

[Chorus:]
Surrounded by Your glory, what will my heart feel
Will I dance for you Jesus or in awe of you be still
Will I stand in your presence or to my knees will I fall
Will I sing hallelujah, will I be able to speak at all
I can only imagine

I can only imagine
When that day comes
And I find myself
Standing in the Son

I can only imagine
When all I will do
Is forever
Forever worship You
I can only imagine

[Chorus]

I can only imagine [x2]

I can only imagine
When all I will do
Is forever, forever worship you

I really prefer this hymn to lift my spirits.

Because I have been given much...

"Because I have been given much, I too must give.

Because of thy great bounty, Lord each day I live.

I shall divide my gifts from thee with every brother that I see,

who has the need of help from me.

Because I have been sheltered, fed by thy good care...

I cannot see another's lack and I not share-

my glowing fire, my loaf of bread-my roof's safe shelter over head,

that he too may be comforted.

Because I have been blessed by thy great love dear Lord,

I'll share thy love again according to thy word.

I shall give love to those in need. I'll show that love by word and deed,

thus shall my thanks be thanks indeed."

Mine is a chorus to a song I do not know all the lyrics for.

Who am I that a king would bleed and die for
Who am I that he would say not my will but thine Lord
The answer I may never know
Why he ever ever loved me so
That to an old rugged cross he would go
For who am I

I generally sing it to my self with another chorus.

His blood was not just blood
of another spotless Lamb
But His blood was precious blood
It washed the sins of man
And His blood can heal my body
and set my spirit free
I'm so glad His precious blood
still flows from Calvary.

And another.

Gone,
The stone is rolled back
Gone,
The tomb is empty
Gone
To sit at His Father's side
Halalujah, He's gone
Over death triumphant
Gone
Sin is defeated,
Gone
And He lives forever more

It reminds me that all have sinned and none has reason to be self righteous or look down on another.
It also reminds me that even though I have some major infirmities that He has not healed He could if He wanted to. And I love Him because He died for me and not because He is going to make life easy
My pain and suffering is not to be compared to that which He willingly went through to save my soul and blessed be His holy name.

This is a wonderful thread...Thanks for starting it.
Who Am I is a wonderful song written by Rusty Goodman.
For me I love worship songs and there's one called "He Never Gave Up"

Its been a long long road, and my soul has grown weary...
I cant understand, all the struggles within me...
theres been times I've strayed away, and times I could not pray,
but somehow my Faith would say to hold on theres a brighter day..

He Never gave up, He never gave up
Mercy reached down, that was enough
If u could see where I was before, the I'm sure u would believe,
He never once, He never gave up on me.

Is your back's against the wall, and you feel your hope is gone
Have you often asked yourself, is there a reason to go on..
He looks beyound my guilty stain, and His mercy takes the blame
So forget about your past, praise the Lord you're free at last

He.................

I'm not a Christian, but I like some Christian music for the inspiration factor, and one of my favorites is By Your Side by Tenth Avenue North.  The line that got me when I first heard it is "why are you trying to earn grace?"  That's one of my "tragic flaws" - that I get frustrated because there are certain things in life that can't be done by sheer power of will or effort.  It's a nice reminder that that's okay and that real strength is in accepting help when I need it.

So many.  But this is one that I really like right now:

Mighty to Save by Reuben Morgan

Everyone needs compassion,
Love that's never failing;
Let mercy fall on me.

Everyone needs forgiveness,
The kindness of a Savior;
The Hope of nations.

Savior, He can move the mountains,
My God is Mighty to save,
He is Mighty to save.

Forever, Author of salvation,
He rose and conquered the grave,
Jesus conquered the grave.

So take me as You find me,
All my fears and failures,
Fill my life again.

I give my life to follow
Everything I believe in,
Now I surrender.
Yes, I surrender

Savior, He can move the mountains,
My God is Mighty to save,
He is Mighty to save.
Forever, Author of salvation,
He rose and conquered the grave,
Jesus conquered the grave. (x2)

Shine your light and let the whole world see,
We're singing for the glory of the risen King...Jesus (x2)

Savior, He can move the mountains,
My God is Mighty to save,
He is Mighty to save.
Forever, Author of salvation,
He rose and conquered the grave,
Jesus conquered the grave. (x2)

Shine your light and let the whole world see,
We're singing for the glory of the risen King...Jesus (x6)

Those are all awesome songs. A couple i haven't heard before but the lyrics are great.
I think though that the one song that means the most to me is the one below because it really states what i believe the real goal in the Christian life is.

In the Likeness of You  by Petra

In the likeness of You
Recreated, renewed
Let me awake forever
In the likeness
In the likeness of You

Now I lay me down to sleep
My heart and soul are Yours to keep
I close my eyes and try to see
More of You and less of me

Jesus, I'm trusting in You
So while I'm sleeping
Keep me dreaming
Of when I will awake

In the likeness of You
Recreated, renewed
Resurrected by Your righteousness
In Your likeness
In the likeness of You

Men dream of fortune and fame
Making the rules, naming the game
And men dream of things they can hold
Money and power, silver and gold
Jesus, I'm dreaming of You
Take me and melt me, mold me
Until I am complete

In the likeness of You
Recreated, renewed
Resurrected by Your righteousness
In the likeness of You
In the likeness of You
So faithful and true
Let me awake forever in the likeness of You

The likeness of You
I want to be
I want to be like You
In all I say
In all I do

The likeness of you
The likeness of you
I want to be
I want to be
Just like you
In the likeness
In the likeness of you

Eden's Bridge version of I will Change Your Name:

I will change, will change your name
I will change, will change your name

I will change your name
You shall no longer be called
Wounded, outcast, lonely or afraid

I will change your name
Your new name shall be
Confidence, joyfulness, overcoming one
Faithfulness, friend of God
One who seeks My face

==

Rich Mullins, Ready for the Storm:

The waves crash in the tide rolls out
It's an angry sea but there is no doubt
That the lighthouse will keep shining out
To warn a lonely sailor
And the lightning strikes
And the wind cuts cold
Through the sailor's bones
Through the sailor's soul
'Til there's nothing left that he can hold
Except a rolling ocean

Oh I am ready for the storm
Yes sir ready
I am ready for the storm
I'm ready for the storm

Oh give me mercy for my dreams
'Cause every confrontation seems to tell me
What it really means
To be this lonely sailor
And when the sky begins to clear
The sun it melts away my fear
And I cry a silent weary tear
For those who mean to love me

Oh I am ready for the storm
Yes sir ready
I am ready for the storm
I'm ready for the storm

The distance it is no real friend
And time will take its time
And you will find that in the end
It brings you me
This lonely sailor
And when You take me by the hand
And You love me, Lord, You love me
And I should have realized
I had no reasons to be frightened

Oh I am ready for the storm
Yes sir ready
I am ready for the storm
Yes sir ready
I am ready for the storm
Yes sir ready
I am ready for the storm
I'm ready for the storm

Want to hear an amazing song?  Go to you tube and type in a search for Matt Hammitt and Bethany Dillion.  The song title is..In Christ Alone.  It's a song that sees me through every day.  Good and bad. 
"Here in the power of Christ I stand."  Hope you enjoy it.  ( And yea....I just had to buy the CD.)

Good song Sarah! It brought to mind a thought about living in the Northwest where we have both the Cascade and Olympic mountain ranges and climbing is a great pastime. Oftentimes climbers have slipped and lost their footing on loose shale, always find it a relief to get their feet back on solid rock. This is analogous to our Christian lives as we struggle over the slippery and uncertain terrain of daily life, especially within the context of our gender identity disorder and all that it brings with it.

I'm not Christian by faith, but I'm always uplifted by Judee Sill's song The Donor. Something about the way she sings Kyrië Eleison is very beautiful and meaningful to me. (I'm on my phone right now, or I'd post a link.)

That's the song, but not the version that does it for me - it's this live one, where she explains it before singing it - and it's just her and her piano, no special effects. It's very painful somehow, but also draws me up in myself.

So, one Sunday morning I when I come to pick up my then 5 YO girl from "bible school" I notice that she had been cried.
I asked what had happen?
She said the teacher got mad with her.
I asked her why?
She said the teacher had said that "G-d forgives everything and everybody"
So? I said
I asked the teacher  "So that means that G-d will forgive Satan one day, right?"

This incident had me thinking about the whole issue of Satan case.

So, does Satan make a good case for himself in this song?

Peky I can't say since I'm not G-d. However I do enjoy that song as well as a lot of Rolling Stones stuff, it was my era. I still get a bang out of Alica Cooper too, he's a riot! I once asked my wife what he meant by "Only Women Bleed", She said, "Not what you think you ass, shut up!" I've since checked my passive/aggressive humor and refrain from anything that could create WWIII.

I am not Christian, but strangely enough I do feel uplifted by a lot of the music.  A few I particularly enjoy are

Lord, I Life Your Name On High
Awesome God
Come, Now Is The Time To Worship
My Jesus, My Savior

I find it weird that they make me feel so good but who am I to question a good thing?

CaseyB,
I don't want to cause a thread drift but many do not realize the difference between mind and spirit.

When God breathed the breath of life into man he became a living soul. We see the same when Jesus did likewise and said "receive ye the Holy Ghost."

Your spirit is that part of you which longs for God. Your mind is that part of you that may try to rationalize everything and cause you to not believe.

When you hear certain songs your spirit which longs for God is enlightened as it is not hearing the worldly things of which it longs to be free of. Sort of how some people can be on a death bed and everyone prays they will get better yet the spirit within them just longs to be with the Lord.

Some churches play these tactics with videos and powerpoint and light settings to make people feel good. Even though the people do not have the spiritual discernment to see what they are doing to them they feel good and make that church their home church. They end up deceived so the minister can get money.

Some of these things are no longer taught as many ministers don't want people to know how they are being manipulated.

May God bless.

I have several favorites and some of my favorites include

Lead me Guide me

I am weak and I need thy strength and power
to help me over my weakest hour.
Help me through the darkness thy face to see.
Lead me, O Lord, lead me.

            Refrain:
                    Lead me, guide me, along the way,
                    for if you lead me, I cannot stray.
                    Lord, let me walk each day with thee.


Help me tread in the paths of righteousness.
Be my aid when Satan and sin oppress.
I am putting all my trust in thee.
Lead me, O Lord, lead me..............................(Refrain)


I am lost if you take your hand from me.
I am blind without thy light to see.
Lord, just always let me thy servant be.
Lead me, O Lord, lead me..............................(Refrain)

Lift Ev'ry Voice and Sing
Lift every voice and sing, till earth and Heaven ring,
Ring with the harmonies of liberty;
Let our rejoicing rise, high as the listening skies,
Let it resound loud as the rolling sea.
Sing a song full of the faith that the dark past has taught us,
Sing a song full of the hope that the present has brought us;
Facing the rising sun of our new day begun,
Let us march on till victory is won.

Stony the road we trod, bitter the chastening rod,
Felt in the days when hope unborn had died;
Yet with a steady beat, have not our weary feet,
Come to the place for which our fathers sighed?
We have come over a way that with tears has been watered,
We have come, treading our path through the blood of the slaughtered;
Out from the gloomy past, till now we stand at last
Where the white gleam of our bright star is cast.

God of our weary years, God of our silent tears,
Thou Who hast brought us thus far on the way;
Thou Who hast by Thy might, led us into the light,
Keep us forever in the path, we pray.
Lest our feet stray from the places, our God, where we met Thee.
Lest our hearts, drunk with the wine of the world, we forget Thee.
Shadowed beneath Thy hand, may we forever stand,
True to our God, true to our native land.

Precious Lord, Take my Hand

Precious Lord, take my hand
Lead me on, let me stand
I am tired, I am weak, I am worn
Through the storm, through the night
Lead me on to the light
Take my hand precious Lord, lead me home

When my way grows drear
Precious Lord linger near
When my life is almost gone
Hear my cry, hear my call
Hold my hand lest I fall
Take my hand precious Lord, lead me home

When the darkness appears
And the night draws near
And the day is past and gone
At the river I stand
Guide my feet, hold my hand
Take my hand precious Lord, lead me home

Precious Lord, take my hand
Lead me on, let me stand
I'm tired, I'm weak, I'm lone
Through the storm, through the night
Lead me on to the light
Take my hand precious Lord, lead me home

Hi there everyone.

This is my first post and I'm not sure if I'm doing this correctly?

I would like to share this anthem with you, it's called "The Deer's Cry" or "The Breastplate of St Patrick" and also known as "The Lorica of St Patrick".

I hope you will find it very meaningful to our shared gender disphoria situation in life, but also at the same time inspirational. Since coming to know my own position in the gender spectrum, MtF but not transitioning, and becoming more aware of our generally poor situation in society through the internet, this particular anthem has taken a new meaning for me.

This song really hit me in the dead of the morning while contemplating the challenges I have to face now and in the future and how I feel so powerless in it all.  It reminded me of this song and I just felt the need to cry out in prayer.


https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q1FHx0OoSjc&list=HL1385771377

It's actually called "Total Praise" (not You are the source of my strength, though it, in my opinion, is the most powerful line in the song) by Richard Smallwood.

I can't say that I make any concious decision to listen to any specifically 'Christian' song(s) when  I am down.
There is one exceptionally beautiful song by Amy Grant, Breath Of Heaven, through which I find inspiration in the virgin Mary.
How frightened, yet strong in faith she must have been carrying our Lord Jesus inside her at such a young age (only 12-14 yrs old).
Breath Of Heaven (Mary's Song)(Amy Grant) youtube.com/watch?v=rW2OBT-5qfc

Not necessarily a Christian song, but Peter Gabriel & Kate Bush performing 'Don't Give Up' makes me cry with joy to know we are all never alone. Everyone on Earth should see and remember this song:
Don't Give Up (Peter Gabriel) youtube.com/watch?v=VjEq-r2agqc

If any others come to mind, I'll ring in again later. Peace and love to all.

Hearing it as an adult, the coloring song is a bit simplistic, but it's still nice. The jehovah jireh song was more useful for being uplifting. This is the least-cheesy version I could find.

Honestly I found more power in the stuff in the hymnals than anything I know how to look up and link.

I guess I am too but like you, there are a few gospel songs that speak to me.  I have no problem filtering the myth from the message.  If I hear something that speaks to me then that's a good thing.

It's a 90's Christian rap song.  I'll admit, it's not as uplifting as other Christian songs, but it still can be encouraging in it's own way.  It starts off as a warning/instruction, then it gets encouraging.  I like it.

After all the stuff I've been through this year so far and what I expect to go through in the next year transition-wise, this song can really hit home for me.

Normally, I don't like contemporary gospel music, but I just found out about this song, and it catches my attention.  It is from a lesbian singer.  This song is calming, yet militant to me, and that is why I like it.  Talk about a true King!!!!

When I get really stressed, worried, or depressed about things in my life not going the way I think they should, this song by Francesca Battistelli always cheers me up. It is called "This Is The Stuff"

I love this song, and as I listen to it, I'm finding more ways that it relates to me and my "transition" in a sense.  So uplifting!

Be Still My Soul.  I can't always believe in God and when I can, I can't always praise him for everything in the world.  But even listening myself to Be Still My Soul, I feel that there must be a God who is also listening.

To Be A Pilgrim.  I prefer John Bunyan's original lyrics to the English Hymnal, i.e.
"Hobgoblin nor foul fiend can daunt his spirit".

I also like Immortal, Invisible, God Only Wise and Oh Worship the King, All Glorious Above.  It may be partly because both refer to God as The Ancient of Days and I like that name.
