Music Monday- "Do Everything"

I have a new favorite song, it is by one of my favorite artists, Steven Curtis Chapman. I blogged about another song of his here.

This song is BRAND NEW, the CD is not even out yet! I've been hearing this song on the radio the past few weeks, and I really love it! Maybe since I can identify with the first several lines of the song so well, picking up toys on the living room floor... yeah, I do that every day! So it got me thinking, do I do everything and praise God, do everything for HIM, not for me? Convicting thoughts...

Here are the lyrics for his newest single, "Do Everything"


Steven Curtis Chapman - Do Everything Lyrics
You’re picking up toys on the living room floor
for the 15th time today
Matching up socks and sweeping up lost
Cheerios that got away
You put a baby on your hip and color on your lips
and head out the door
And while I may not know you I bet I know you
Wonder sometimes does it matter at all
We’ll let me remind you it all matters just as long as you
Do everything you do to the glory of the One who made you
Cause He made you to do
Every little thing that you do to bring a smile to His face
And tell the story of grace
With every move that you make
And every little thing you do
OOoh ooooh oooooh
Maybe you’re that guy with the suit and tie
Maybe your shirt says your name
You may be hooking up mergers, cooking up burgers
But at the end of the day
Little stuff big stuff in between stuff
God sees it all the same
And while I may not know you I bet I know you
Wonder sometimes does it matter at all
We’ll let me remind you it all matters just as long as you do
Everything you do to the glory of the One who made you
Cause He made you
To do every little thing that you do to bring a smile to His face
And tell the story of grace with every move that you make
And every little thing that you do
Well maybe you’re sitting in math class
Maybe anekatips on a mission in the Congo
Maybe you’re working at the office
Singing along with the radio
Maybe you’re dining at a five star
Or feeding orphans in Myanmar
Anywhere and everywhere you are
Whatever you do it all matters
So do what you do and don’t ever forget
to do
Everything you do to the glory of the One who made you
Cause He made you to do
Every little thing that you do to bring a smile to His face
And tell the story of grace as you do
Everything you do to the glory of the One who made you
Cause He made you to do
Every little thing that you do to bring a smile to His face
And tell the story of grace with every move that you make
And every little thing that you do
Ooh oooooh
Every little thing you do
This song ties into the Bible verse found in Colossians 3:17, which says.."And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through Him." I really like songs that tie into Bible verses, then I can sing the verse and thank God for amazing Christian artists that bring me right back to GOD! 
The new CD comes out on August 9th- I can't wait! I LOVE his songs! This is not the first one that has spoken to me as a young mom! 
You can listen and watch it on YouTube here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FEqdDdvFXZ0
