hAlo14
it really made my week when william sent me this photo of us serving at Redeemer's College. memories rushed back, my mind flooded with the fellowship and fun we had. with brothers like these guys, it actually feels kosher to be single.
when i'm with these warriors...i feel both invincible yet weak at the same time. invincible cause i know God's on our side and that we're doing His will...but weak because on our own strengths nothing can be accomplished, it was all by His grace and all for His glory.
howard - always the servant, sacrificing his personal time and energy to transport us and our equipments to gigs and not once complaining.
steve - blunt, honest and genuine guy. always the one to light up the room with his smile and out-going charisma.
will - there's a sense of intensity around him when he serves. his quiet servitude speaks volumes. always there to crack wise (and Godly) comments
eric - our one-man AV crew. i'm not sure what type of extortion method we used to make him stay, but he did. always the one to give constructive criticism. thanks for not wearing earplugs when we sounded like...poo poo.
caleb - full of energy and creativity. the man knows how to live life to its fullest. always the guy to spice things up and to make fun of me.
mike - the fearless leader. he has passion, commitment and a vision. never relenting even in the darkest hours. inspiration to us all. always starts practice with the word, "Question..."
Practice saturday afternoon at 2pm. remember to eat lunch before you come.
***************
You know it's time for us to step it up
Another level now 'cause we finished warming up
So we rise up elevate to maintain fill up with octane
And fan the flame we regain all the names
The enemy took away
And like a green beret we will lead the way
Into battle so have no fear we will draw near
So that we can persevere like a gondolier
We headed straight to the top nonstop
Set shop at the top of the Rock
You'll feel the aftershock after we rock the spot
Cause you forgot these soldiers won't turn and walk
We take hard knocks come back for more
Cause we're hardcore we fight for the One who died for (you)
And like Saigon we're on the frontlines
And we carry on to the end times
Now that it's on, we're out in the front of this marathon
With our armor on, stay strong we drive on
Our echelon pressin' on 'til we reach the top
And you know we don't stop (our echelon)
Now that it's on
We're on the enemy's hit list
I'm hopin' you get this
You're takin' a risk when you resist the One who made you exist
Evolutionists we got love for you too but we're breakin' down
Walls seeking out the truth
I'm a soldier in this army of One
Like I told ya the battle's already won
So about face move outta the way I gotta pray for you
And this is how we do
