Music: Keith Green

I’m starting a new series that I intend to just be helpful for those who are really heavily spiritually influenced by music. I find myself in that category, and I’ve run into a lot of music that has been really helpful to me.
Keith Green was a truly dedicated disciple of Christ, and wrote a lot of beautiful music before he died in 1982 in a plane crash. These aren’t the full song lyrics, just pieces to give you an idea.
When I Hear the Praises Start
For when I hear the praises start, I want to rain upon you,
Blessings that will fill your heart, I see no stain upon you,
Because you are My child and know me, to Me you’re only holy,
Nothing that you’ve done remains, only what you do for Me.
My precious bride, the day is nearing,
When I’ll take you in My arms and hold you,
I know there are so many things that you’ve been hearing,
But you just hold on to what I have told you.
Asleep in the Light
Oh Bless me Lord, bless me Lord, you know it’s all I ever hear,
No one aches, no one hurts, no one even sheds one tear,
But He cries, He weeps, He bleeds, and He cares for your needs,
And you just lay back and keep soaking it in, oh, can’t you see it’s such sin?
The world is sleeping in the dark,
That the church can’t fight, cause it’s asleep in the light,
How can you be so dead, when you’ve been so well fed,
Jesus rose from the grave, and you, you can’t even get out of bed,
Oh, Jesus rose from the dead, come on, get out of your bed.
