This song has been on repeat for the last few days on my I-pod so I thought I would share it with you.


 
He's awakening the hope in me
By calling forth my destiny

He's breathing life
Into my soul
I will thirst for
Him and Him alone

He has come like the rain
That showers on the barren plain

So my heart and tongue confess
Jesus, Christ the Hope of man

My hope is in you, God
I am steadfast
I will not be moved

I'm anchored, never shaken
All my hope is in You

He's bringing hope to the hopeless
And giving His heart to the broken

And sharing His home with the orphan
He is the joy, He is my joy
He is the hope of the nations
The father's heart we're embracing

He is the song we're declaring
He is the joy, He is my joy

"Cause' I See Sparks Fly Whenever You Smile"...

Okay, I know the title is cheezy, but hey, it's Taylor Swift! Last night my best friend and I saw her live in one of the best concerts I have been to so far. We had floor seats and were even able to stand right in front of the stage for about an hour until one of the security guards told us we had to go back to our chairs ;). 

 Even though she is a great singer who keeps her lyrics wholesome and relatable , she is also wonderful performer. Every song she sang had it's own story and presentation and the amount of detail she put into each of her acts was incredible. All the way from dancing ballerinas and floating staircases for her song "Enchanted"(which was my favourite performance by far) to falling "snow" and lit up trees for her song "Back to December. Her whole performance had a very magical and fairytale-esque feel which I loved. Each little detail made the concert that more special.
 
 
So needless to say my best friend and I had a great time last night and ended up belting "Sparks Fly" all the way home from the concert! The only thing I regret was not charging my phone before the concert or making sure my camera had a mermory card! Oh well. I don't think I will be able to forget this concert for a LONG time.




Taylor Swift's Stage. Everything
had a 1940's vintage feel.
Waiting for the concert to start
The one poor shot I got of Taylor
before my phone died.
