11 MP3 Songs
ROCK: Folk Rock, FOLK: like Ani
Details:
"I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint. My heart has turned to wax; it has melted away within me. My strength is dried up like a potsherd, and my tongue sticks to the roof of my mouth; you lay me in the dust of death."
-Psalms 22:14-15
(A psalm of David).
...Like us, David had his demons -his unconquerable oppression...
"He rescued me from on high and took hold of me; he drew me out of deep water. He rescued me from my powerful enemy, from my foes, who were too strong for me."
-Psalms 18:16-17
...David''s God pulled him out of that oppression, as only David''s God can do...
"They dug a pit in my path -but they have fallen into it themselves. My heart is steadfast, O God, my heart is steadfast; I will sing and make music. Awake, my soul! Awake, harp and lyre! I will awaken the dawn!"
-Psalms 57:6-8
...David was then able to move beyond himself...
"And it came to pass, when the evil spirit from God was upon Saul, that David took an harp, and played with his hand; so Saul was refreshed, and was well, and the evil spirit departed from him."
-1 Samuel 16:23
...And so David was freed from his oppressor and was used to free others from the same...
Note the chorus of the title track:
david get your lyre
it''s coming over me
that same old demon
that don''t want you to sing
so be sure to sing...
Like two people who have fallen into a huge, deep pit, one cannot get out without the help of the other. And the other cannot offer any help without first getting out. It''s like a catch 22...an impossible task...a dead end.
"Indeed, in our hearts we felt the sentence of death. But this happened that we might not rely on ourselves but on God, who raises the dead." -2 Corinthians 1:9
Help often comes THROUGH man...but it comes FROM God.
Written in my bedroom; recorded in my basement. "David get your lyre" is a collection of 11 songs (written throughout my high school years) about hope and trust and is for anyone who wants to listen.
Love,
Melanie Shealy
