Looking Forward to the 29th...............

I first saw it listed on Facebook...
It drew me even then...
And now.. well, now I wait for the 29th and the full release...

When I first heard it I thought of a friend of mine and then I thought of lots of friends of mine....  A friend had had a picture of herself living in a bird cage but the door was open but within the cage she still resided.  When I heard this song I thought of that image and burst into tears and intercession and laughter and joy and as weeping and laughing kissed, I thought of the freedom that would come to so many from this song and I rejoiced....

I thought of all the birds flying free ...
All the birds flying out of cages...
I thought of all the dry bones dancing....

And I would eventually realize that the song of dry bones dancing is one that I want to play and replay over and over and over again... To all the daughters and sons of our God who need to take flight and arise from the valley....

Misty Edwards is coming out with a new album on the 29th and this song Little Bird has captured my heart and set it free...

LYRICS

Little girl, little girl with the big round eyes
Little bird, little bird, one day you’ll fly
A breathtaking flight of life you’ll fly
Then little bird, little bird, you will die

Because life, life is a vapor
But the brevity is what makes it a treasure
So feel it all like a love letter
To the One you will live with forever
His eye is on the sparrow
His eye is on you

What then, what then when it’s all over?
Little bones, little bones the dust will cover
Little spirit, little spirit you’ll live on
With the soul of the bird that goes on and on
Then little bones, little bones
You will rise and little girl, little girl
You will fly
Fly
