Music Monday #5 {Jess}

I was going to share another song when I heard this new song last week. It was written by an adoptive parent, Kevin Palmer, who is also waiting to adopt with his wife, Layla. The couple appear to be in the process of adopting a child from Haiti, but it looks like a neat blog I need to catch up on. The song is entitled “Love Collides.” It’s a really pretry, thoughtful song. It beautifully captures the hopefulness I feel so much so there isn’t much I can add.

The music video with lyrics can be viewed at The Lettered Cottage

Lyrics:

“I wonder where you are tonight

I dream about you when  I close my eyes

You’re all I see

I pray that I’ll be what you need

As I reach for you

And pull you close so I can feel you breathe

You are the grace between my everything

You are the song I sing

So lay down you pretty head

And rest your soul tonight

Cause God will watch you while you’re sleeping and so will I

And I’ll be kneeling by your bed

until the morning light

I know one day

I won’t be dreaming

When hope and love collide

I’m on my way to you tonight

I’ll take you in my arms and hold you tight

I’ll never let you go

Cause God has trusted you with me

And I’m on my knees

I know that he has planned this perfectly

You are the grace between my everything

You are the song I sing

So lay down your pretty head and rest your soul tonight

Cause God will watch you while you’re sleeping

And so will I

And I’ll be kneeling by your bed

Until the morning light

I know one day I won’t be dreaming

When hope and love collide

You leave me breathless

My heart will be restless until I’m holding you

My love unending and you’re the beginning

My answered prayer

My dream come true

So lay down you pretty head

Lay down your pretty head

Cause God will watch you while your sleeping

So lay down your pretty head

And rest your soul tonight

Cause God will watch you while your sleeping

And so will I

And I’ll be kneeling…

I know one day I won’t be dreaming

When hope and love collide”

 

 

I was really excited to find this song, and I hope you enjoyed it. 🙂
