  • Some friends of mine from my YWAM days just got a recording contract and released their 4th album called 'Uncommon Days'...

    This is one of the songs off the new album...it has struck a chord with me recently and thought I would share...

    If you get the chance, check them out - they are worth listening to - the name of the band is 'Circleslide'.


    Get Up



    What if I told you I wasn't ready for this life

    What if I told you this wasn't what I had in mind

    What if this mountain's just too high

    Get up get up

    brush off the dust from your soul

    Get up get up

    the past is beyond your control

    Get up get up

    don't ever give up on love

    What if I told you my whole world broke down last night

    What if showed you my surprising ugly side

    What if I've fallen out of line

    What if I told you there was time when I believed

    What if I told you I'm exploding with doubt I'm infected with weakness

    I'm breaking the silence crying out, crying out
