Slaying Goliath Music Blog – Update

Leave a comment

Hello, God’s Creatures,

I know I haven’t visited or uploaded to this blog in a while, but I wanted to give you guys an update on what has been happening since I stopped posting on this.

This blog takes a lot of time and a lot o energy to upkeep. I was searching high and low for music from all around the world so we can come together as a collective to worship God despite having language barriers. I love the church body, regardless of where you reside, and I wanted music and worship to be a part of that. I enjoy searching for the different artists that I showcased. However, I do apologize for not asking for their permission to post on this site as well as on my YouTube channel.

After maintaining this blog for some time, I got discouraged by the lack of support I felt from mainly my friends and family, but people have been expressing how I need to restart this again and see what it turns into. So, I am hoping it turns into a community that comes together. I am hoping I can start multiple Spotify playlists organized by genre, maybe a podcast with different hosts, music interviews, concerts exclusive, etc. I am dreaming with God and being faithful to this.

Most of the comments were to put a face to this blog, but right now, I don’t feel like this like God is moving me in that direction just yet.  My desire is still to make this a worship community that travels across nations and genres. I don’t want to only explore music as a form of worship but it will be one of the foundations of something I am so passionate about.

Which is you will see me, in my free time, updating this blog website, and making the necessary updated changes. So, I do request that you be patient with me with all of this.

I love Jesus and I want this to be something where we can have honest music that explores our doubts, hardships, joys, victories, disappointments, and accomplishments. My goal is to give this blog life again.

I don’t know where this blog is going to go but I am trusting and partnering with God to find out.

Thank you all for being here and posting will commence on February 1st.

Thank you for being here.

Citizens–I Am Living in a Land of Death

Video Leave a comment

Lyrics:

I’m living in a land of death
The trees are burnt and gray
There’s a smoldering smoke over head
And the night looks the same as the day
It seems the miracle that I can stand
When everyone I’ve known
Drifts up in the air with the ash
Every time that the wind starts to blow

But I feel alive with a life that’s not mine
Your law is a stream in this wasteland; my lifeline.
So much more than precious gold
Are Your promises my Lord
By them is Your servant warned,
And keeping them great reward

Your direction is my delight
Your law secures my roots
I will meditate day and night
And in season You’ll harvest the fruit
Though a poison should threaten to kill
I know my Savior reigns
And when the breezes of death leave a chill
I’ve got Jesus’ blood in my veins

So I feel alive with a life that’s not mine
And I’m believing that that was Your intended design
So much more than precious gold
Are Your promises my Lord
By them is Your servant warned,
And keeping them great reward

The kingdoms of man have all decayed
The ruins of progress turn to waste
The gods of greed lie in their graves
Darkness is everywhere
But there’s a path in the dark that has emerged
I can see a great light beyond this curse
A brilliant blaze that is Your word
A beacon of hope that burns

And I focus my captivated gaze
On the radiant light from Jesus’ face
The water of life is all I crave
Only Your word remains

So much more than precious gold
Is the beauty I behold
Give me the glorious reward
Of knowing You my King my Lord
