SQJ Taipei

The first time was a few weeks ago. I had just picked up my new phone that doubles as a sweet mp3 player. I was trying it out as I took the elevator down from our 18th floor apartment. I was fiddling with the controls and decided on “Your Grace is Enough” by Chris Tomlin. Next thing I know I’m cruising down the hallways of my apartment complex… walking faster as the music builds to the chorus… and then bursting out singing along when the chorus hits at the same time that I hit the front door and started down the steps to my scooter. If you know the song… you’ll know how that could happen!

Last night I was on my scooter coming back from the dentist and another (secret) errand (secret because it is related to Mrs. SQJ’s birthday!) and David Crowder’s “Our Love is Loud” came on. I’m not sure how long I was horrifying the people of Taipei with my out-of-tune singing and inability to hit the high notes, but at one stoplight it dawned on me and I just decided to keep singing…

Reminded me of this video:

Your Grace Is Enough - Chris Tomlin

Great is Your faithfulness oh God
You wrestle with the sinner’s heart
You lead us by still waters and to mercy
And nothing can keep us apart
So remember Your people
Remember Your children
Remember Your promise
Oh God

Your grace is enough
Your grace is enough
Your grace is enough for me

Great is Your love and justice God
You use the weak to lead the strong
You lead us in the song of Your salvation
And all Your people sing along
So remember Your people
Remember Your children
Remember Your promise
Oh God

Your grace is enough
Heaven reaching down to us
Your grace is enough for me
God I see your grace is enough
I’m covered in your love
Your grace is enough for me
For me

Our Love is Loud - David Crowder Band

When we sing
Hear our songs, to You
When we dance
Feel us move, to You
When we laugh
Fill our smiles, with You

When we lift our voices
Louder still
Can You hear us?
Can You feel?

We love You, Lord
We love You
We love You
We love You, Lord
We love You
We love You

When we sing [LOUD!]
Hear our songs, to You
When we dance [ROUND!]
Feel us move, to You
When we laugh [ALOUD!]
Fill our smiles, with You

And our love is big
Our love is loud
Fill this place with this love now
And our love is big
Our love is loud
Fill our lungs
To sing it now…
