New Theme Song: What If
What if you're right
He was just another nice guy
What if you're right
What if it's true
They say the cross will only make a fool of you
And what if it's true
What if He takes His place in history
With all the prophets and the kings
Who taught us love, and came in peace
But then the story ends
What then
But what if you're wrong
What if there's more
What if there's hope you never dreamed of hoping for
What if you jump
Just close your eyes
What if the arms that catch you, catch you by surprise
What if He's more than enough
What if it's love
What if you dig
Way down deeper than your simple-minded friends
What if you dig
What if you find
A thousand more unanswered questions down inside
That's all you find
What if you pick apart the logic
And begin to poke the holes
What if the crown of thorns is no more than folklore that must be told
And retold
But what if you're wrong
What if there's more
What if there's hope you never dreamed of hoping for
What if you jump
Just close your eyes
What if the arms that catch you, catch you by surprise
What if He's more than enough
What if it's love
'Cause you've been running as fast as you can
You've been looking for a place you can land
For so long
But what if you're wrong
What if you jump
Just close your eyes
What if the arms that catch you, catch you by surprise
What if He's more than enough
What if it's love
What if it's love
- Nichole Nordeman, Brave (2005)
Yes, I know it's not Monday. But cheer up! It is a post after all. :) And what better way to start a Wednesday. Also, playing in concert at the Dodge Theater January 25th and 26th is Chris Tomlin. I think we are going to try to go to it. Should be fun - he's a good artist/singer/songwriter.

Great song. When I was at the Women of Faith conference I saw Nicole perform this song live and immediately thought of you. Who knew apologetics could be set to music and be made to sound so pretty... ;) j/k
Nichole is my favorite Christian artist, and this is one of her best songs. The whole album is fantastic, as are all of her other works! She is often described as a poet with thought provoking lyrics and organic song-writing. Her songs are always inspiring, and many can move you to tears, or they do me anyway...
the entire cd is really good - i have been enjoying it quite a bit this past week.
