Leeland


Leeland is one of my favorite bands right now and they just came out with a new album, and the lyrics are awesome. The guy who does the lead vocals for the band is a very talented song writer and I can't believe a person as young as he is can write such deep, amazing, convicting truths. Well...I actually can believe it, because its God working. If you have never checked out this band I encourage to take a listen you will not be dissapointed.


I havn't gotten the CD yet but here is one of the songs I thought was pretty amazing. If you click on the link below you can get a little portion it.


Lyrics: Wake Up

The nation lost and dying
Searching for You
Creation waits
Children with the word of God
Written on their hearts
Show love to the world


We need to wake up, wake up
Live like God
Pour out love
We need to wake up, wake up
Live like God
Pour out love


I know it’s sad
That the gift we have
We keep it for ourselves
Most of the time
The world is looking
For a love that’s locked up
Inside these four walls
Break the door down and shine


Our face is set
Our goal is heaven
Jesus, You are the well of love
We’ll pour You out
We’ll pour You out
