I Belong

If you know me well you'll know that I don't pick favorites very often. Ask me if I have a favorite color and I'll say blue. Or Burgundy. It depends if I'm wearing it or looking at it. Favorite food? Depends on my mood. Favorite movie? Do I have to pick just one? See, I just don't do favorites. So when I do actually say I have a favorite something it's a very big deal for me and it really means I'm serious about it.

This is my favorite song.
Definitely and completely.

It has such a simple message and yet it's one that I think we forget too often. The combination of the words and music moves me so much and there is no way I can listen to it anymore without crying.

Things of this earth will fail us. People will fail us. Our dreams will fail. But God never will and we belong to Him forever and forever. That's why we live. That's how we can live.

I'm not going to say anymore. I just wanted to share it with you. Listen here.


I Belong, Kathryn Scott
Not angels, nor demons, no power on earth or heaven
Not distance, nor danger, no trouble now or ever

Nothing can take me from your great love
Forever this truth remains
I belong, I belong to you

Not hardship, nor hunger, no pain or depth of sorrow
Not weakness, nor failure, no broken dream or promise
