Best of o9: Shadows

So David Crowder Band came out with a new album and when they come out with something new they are always in contention for one of my favorites and this year is no different. Shadows from their new album Church Music is the best song of the year. It is a haunting song that talks about the shadows in our life and when we have those troubled times we must always remember the shadow of the cross and how wonderful that shadow was for our salvation. The song is both beautiful and powerful, I remember hearing it for the first time while walking on the streets of Thailand on a hot day and getting chills from it. Here are the lyrics

Life is full of light and shadow
O the joy and O the sorrow
O the sorrow

And yet will He bring
Dark to light
And yet will He bring
Day from night

When shadows fall on us
We will not fear
We will remember

When darkness falls on us
We will not fear
We will remember

When all seems lost
When we're thrown and we're tossed
We remember the cost
We rest in Him
Shadow of the cross
