Scouring the depths of Square Piece, I’ve surprised myself to find that I haven’t blogged much about The Corners.
That’s funny. I know it’s in here somewhere. I mean, come on, they played a show in our living room!
My first experience with The Corners was several summers ago. Walking past a tent, I heard the most beautiful music and wandered in to let the sound consume me a little. The Corners were playing what it still my favorite of all their songs, The Sound Of Your Song. When they wrapped up, I hunted the lead singer, Andy, down and asked if I could purchase a CD. Only having a handful of burned CDs on him, he gave me one along with his permission for me to burn it for my friends and family (which I did).
Eventually I found the music video to The Sound of Your Song and eagerly taught myself the sign language as my body just NEEDED to participate in this worship! One day I’d love to hear our church singing this on a Sunday morning. Andy has given me the music and our pastor has given me his permission. (What on earth are we waiting for?!)
Before I show you that video, you should know that The Corners are releasing a new album in March, All Things Are New. Right now, however, they’re giving the song, All Things Are New, away for free! Click on this link and then click on the big, blue letters, Buy Now. It’s a name-your-price sorta thing, with the expectation that you’re going to enter $0.00.
Andy was nice enough to send me the lyrics to their new song, All Things Are New, but don’t forget to check out the video of The Sound Of Your Song below the lyrics.
All Things Are New (free download here)
When the day arrives at night
My flashlight hits the floor ‘cause I’m covered in light
It’s time to shed our skin
All things are new
Let’s shed our skin
All things are new
And when the scales fall off my eyes
And I can finally pull this thorn out of my side
At last, we shed our skin
All things are new
Let’s shed our skin
All things are new
Angel wings, the breeze it brings
The trumpet sounds open the ground
The fiery waves upon the beach,
They make their way to you and me
They burn, they clean,
Transformed we sing
But you have to sing
And when the sheep
Are herded home
The Shepherd guides His babies through
The dark unknown
It’s time to shear the wool
All things are new
Let’s shear the wool
All things are new
Angel wings, the breeze it brings
The trumpet sounds open the ground
The fiery waves upon the beach,
They make their way to you and me
They burn, they clean,
Transformed we sing
We sing…
Hallelujah, hallelujah
We have no shame
You take our blame
Hallelujah, hallelujah
We have no shame
We praise Your name, Yahweh!
The final verse could go unsaid
It’s in my heart, it’s in my head
Your kingdom come on earth just as in heaven
The Sound Of Your Song
Verra nice! 🙂
Like it!
Great song! Great video! Your water has found me in desert times! Amen!
