Testify to Love

This one wasn't mine, but a pretty old song by Avalon. I loved it sooo much when I first heard it and I heard it again recently off dan's comp. As a bunch of you probably know, I've been sick for around 2 and a half weeks, and work's been really getting on my nerves. And this is a good reminder that in sickness or in struggles, whether I'm figuring out what to do with 3 months here in sg or 4 years in aus - my life is to testify to God's love.

Actually its interesting... through the past few years I do recall subconsciously thinking some of the lines of this song when I had to make a few decisions or placed in a few situations. I think a couple of you might just be able to figure out what the lines were, and what they related to =P

Verse 1
All the colours of the rainbow
All the voices of the wind
Every dream that reaches out
That reaches out to find where love begins
Every word of every story
Every star of every sky
Every corner of creation lives to testify

Chorus
For as long as I shall live
I will testify to love
I'll be a witness in the silences when words are not enough
With every breath I take
I will give thanks to God above
For as long as I shall live
I will testify to love

Verse 2
From the mountain to the valley
From the rivers to the sea
Every hand that reaches out
Every hand that reaches to offer peace
Every simple act of mercy
Every step to kingdom come
All the hope in every heart will speak what love has done

Bridge
Colours of the rainbow
Voices of the wind
Dream that reaches out where love begins
Word of every story
Star of every sky
Corners of creation testify

Mountains to the valley
Rivers to the sea
Hand that reaches out to offer peace
Simple act of mercy
Step to kingdom come
Every heart will speak what love has done

Colours of the rainbow
Voices of the wind
Dream that reaches out where love begins
Word of every story
Star of every sky
Corners of creation testify
