Voice of Truth

This song has been playing in my head alot lately... I love Casting Crowns... What's funny is that even in my dream or as I wake up this song is there... This is the theme song to Facing the Giants Movie... This is a must see movie... I always feel better when watching this movie... If you want to read more about Casting Crowns, there is a book about the songs that are on the Life Song CD... What I think is funny about this book is that I had to buy this book three times... I ended up giving it away twice... Once I was on a trip from seeing Jessica and Jason and JJ in North Carolina... I was having a discussion with this couple that was flying into Vegas to see their family... I always brought music with me on flights and this time it was the WOW CD  and I also brought the Life Stories by Mark Hall (Casting Crowns Leader) book... They asked me what the book was about and they also loved Casting Crowns... But they were wanting the title of the book so they could read it... I ended up giving them the book as a anniversary gift... It made me feel good that I was doing something good too... I just wonder how many people around us was listening to our conversation about Casting Crowns... I had to have a kleenex for a few parts of the book... Especially for the song " Praise You in The Storm"... Oh My Goodness, I still bawl when I hear that song... But the video below is the song and a clip from Facing the Giants and it is called Voice of Truth...


Here is the actual video with just Casting Crowns...  



Here is the Lyrics to the Song... I think I need to apply these words to my life more... 

Voice of Truth by Casting Crowns

Oh,what I would do to have
the kind of faith it takes
To climb out of this boat I'm in
Onto the crashing waves
To step out of my comfort zone
Into the realm of the unknown
Where Jesus is,
And he's holding out his hand

But the waves are calling out my name
and they laugh at me
Reminding me of all the times
I've tried before and failed
The waves they keep on telling me
time and time again
"Boy, you'll never win,
You you'll never win

But the Voice of truth tells me a different story
the Voice of truth says "do not be afraid!"
and the Voice of truth says "this is for My glory"
Out of all the voices calling out to me
I will choose to listen and believe the Voice of truth

Oh, what I would do
to have the kind of strength it takes
To stand before a giant
with just a sling and a stone
Surrounded by the sound
of a thousand warriors
shaking in their armor
Wishing they'd have had the strength to stand

But the giant's calling out
my name and he laughs at me
Reminding me of all the times
I've tried before and failed
The giant keeps on telling me
time and time again
"Boy you'll never win,
you'll never win."

But the voice of truth tells me a different story
the Voice of truth says "do not be afraid!"
and the Voice of truth says "this is for My glory"
Out of all the voices calling out to me
I will choose to listen and believe the Voice of truth

But the stone was just the right size
to put the giant on the ground
and the waves they don't seem so high
from on top of them looking down
I will soar with the wings of eagles
when I stop and listen to the sound of Jesus
singing over me

But the Voice of truth tells me a different story
The Voice of truth says "do not be afraid!"
And the Voice of truth says "this is for my glory"
Out of all the voices calling out to me (calling out to me)
I will choose to listen and believe (I will choose to listen and believe)
I will choose to listen and believe the Voice of truth

I will listen and believe
I will listen and believe the Voice of truth
I will listen and believe
'Cause Jesus you are the Voice of truth
And I will listen to you.. oh you are the Voice of truth
