#SLS 6/7/20 – Little Bits of Lightening

This week Jim gave us the prompts of Big/Large/Little/Small/Tall/Tiny for #SLS. I have chosen one of the most beautiful songs that I ever heard in the show Touched By An Angel, one of my favorite shows of all time. Martina McBride’s Little Bits of Lightening from 1998.

I was unable to find an official video for the song but I did find a beautiful lyric video that I wanted to share. I hope you enjoy the song. That’s what’s in My Rattled Cage, thanks for stopping by!!!

Lyrics

I have listen to the sound
Of a lonely night
Gone a thousand miles
Through a storm-filled sky
Looking for some light

Never dreamed of turning back
But faced the wind instead
‘Cause I knew somewhere
You’d be waiting there
Down the road ahead

All through the longest night
Your burning light did shine
Like little bits of lightning
Lighting up the whole world with your flame
Every day to make it better
Strong enough to carry the weight
Your love became my saving grace
Like little bits of lightning
Shining through the rain

If I should ever lose my way
Find the strength in me is gone
I won’t worry what to do
‘Cause Darlin’ I know you
Will come and take me home

All through the longest night
Your burning light did shine
Like little bits of lightning
Lighting up the whole world with your flame
Every day to make it better
Strong enough to carry the weight
Your love became my saving grace
Like little bits of lightning
Shining through the rain

Strong enough to carry the weight
Your love became my saving grace
The kind of feelin’ words can’t explain
Like little bits of lightning
Shining through the rain
Like little bits of lightning
Shining through the rain

Love Is In Da Blog 21 – “When God Ran”

“When God Ran” by Phillips, Craig and Dean is such an appropriate choice for this prompt. As a person in recovery I cannot tell you how many times God has seen me returning and ran to me, took me in his arms and said you are loved!! Please enjoy the video below.

Lyrics
Almighty God, The Great I Am,
Immovable Rock, Omnipotent, Powerful,
Awesome Lord.
Victorious Warrior, Commanding King of Kings,
Mighty Conqueror and the only time,
The only time I ever saw him run,
Was when
He ran to me,
He took me in His arms,
Held my head to His chest,
Said “My son’s come home again!”
Lifted my face,
Wiped the tears from my eyes,
With forgiveness in His voice He said
“Son, do you know I still love You?”
He caught me By surprise, When God ran
The day I left home,
I knew I’d broken His heart.
And I wondered then, if things could ever be the same.
Then one night,
I remembered His love for me.
And down that dusty road, ahead I could see,
It was the only time,
It was the only time I ever saw Him run.
And then
He ran to me,
He took me in His arms,
Held my head to His chest,
Said “My son’s come home again!”
Lifted my face,
Wiped the tears from my eyes,
With forgiveness in His voice He said
“Son, do you know I still love You?”
He caught me by surprise.
And He brought me to my knees.
When God ran, I saw Him run to me.
I was so ashamed, all alone, and so far away.
But now I know, that He’s been waiting for this day
I saw Him run to me,
He took me in His arms,
Held my head to his chest,
Said “My son’s come home again!”
Lifted my face,
Wiped the tears from my eyes,
With forgiveness in His voice
I felt his love for me again.
He ran to me,
He took me in His arms,
Held my head to his chest,
Said “My son’s come home again!”
Lifted my face,
Wiped the tears from my eyes,
With forgiveness in His voice
He said “Son”
He called me Son.
He said “Son, do you know I still love You?”
He ran to me (When God Ran)
(I saw Him run to me)
And then I ran to Him
(When God ran)
When God ran
