Music Monday: Thrive

This is a new song that we have been hearing on the Christian radio station. We have come to like this song a lot, it is very catchy! I heard a DJ say that this would be a great "summer anthem" for anyone this year. So I have come to think of this song that way. It also convicts me as a Christian that I need to stay connected to God, and His Word daily to thrive. I want to know God and make Him known" as the song says...

I hope you enjoy this song as much as we do!

Casting Crowns - "Thrive"
Here in this worn and weary land
Where many a dream has died
Like a tree planted by the water
We never will run dry

SO LIVING WATER FLOWING THROUGH
GOD, WE THIRST FOR MORE OF YOU
FILL OUR HEARTS AND FLOOD OUR SOULS WITH ONE DESIRE
JUST TO KNOW YOU AND TO MAKE YOU KNOWN
WE LIFT YOUR NAME ON HIGH
SHINE LIKE THE SUN, MAKE DARKNESS RUN AND HIDE
WE KNOW WE WERE MADE FOR SO MUCH MORE THAN ORDINARY LIVES
IT’S TIME FOR US TO MORE THAN JUST SURVIVE
WE WERE MADE TO THRIVE

Into Your word, we’re digging deep
To know our Father’s heart
Into the world, we’re reaching out
To show them who You are

SO LIVING WATER FLOWING THROUGH
GOD, WE THIRST FOR MORE OF YOU
FILL OUR HEARTS AND FLOOD OUR SOULS WITH ONE DESIRE
JUST TO KNOW YOU AND TO MAKE YOU KNOWN
WE LIFT YOUR NAME ON HIGH
SHINE LIKE THE SUN, MAKE DARKNESS RUN AND HIDE
WE KNOW WE WERE MADE FOR SO MUCH MORE THAN ORDINARY LIVES
IT’S TIME FOR US TO MORE THAN JUST SURVIVE
WE WERE MADE TO THRIVE

(4X)
JOY UNSPEAKABLE
FAITH UNSINKABLE
LOVE UNSTOPPABLE
ANYTHING IS POSSIBLE

JUST TO KNOW YOU AND TO MAKE YOU KNOWN
WE LIFT YOUR NAME ON HIGH
SHINE LIKE THE SUN, MAKE DARKNESS RUN AND HIDE
WE KNOW WE WERE MADE FOR SO MUCH MORE THAN ORDINARY LIVES
IT’S TIME FOR US TO MORE THAN JUST SURVIVE
WE WERE MADE TO THRIVE

WE WERE MADE TO THRIVE

Proverbs 11:27-29
Whoever seeks good finds favor,
but evil comes to one who searches for it.
Those who trust in their riches will fall,
but the righteous will thrive like a green leaf.
Whoever brings ruin on their family will inherit only wind,
and the fool will be servant to the wise.

Titus 1:16
They claim to know God, but by their actions they deny him. They are detestable, disobedient and unfit for doing anything good.

1 John 4:8
Whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.
