Singing to Jesus

I love nothing more than to listen to my music. Music is such a powerful way to see God in my eyes. I love worshiping God in my car when i am driving. Its funny because when cars pull up next to me at a light, they see this guy with his music up soooooooo loud and just yelling these word out at the top of his lungs. I know just as much as those people that i can not sing and i don't claim to. So they get to hear my horrible voice for the length of the red light, but thats fine with me.
I am so happy that my voice sounds just as good as Jeremy Camps and Mac Powell's, in God's ears. I am sure this is a good thing cause i sing to God a lot and if it did not sound good, well God would not like me!!!
Lately i have been listening to Jeremy Camp, and let me tell you he is amazing. Just listening to the lyrics is so powerful. He has so many great songs and so many that mean something to me personally. One of his songs that i put on every night to go to bed to is an old hymn called "Give me Jesus". The lyrics are simple but powerful. Its such a great song to sing too and has brought me to tears before. So hear are the lyrics........

"Give Me Jesus"


In the morning, when I rise
In the morning, when I rise
In the morning, when I rise

Give me Jesus.
Give me Jesus,
Give me Jesus.
You can have all this world,
Just give me Jesus.

When I am alone,
When I am alone,
When I am alone,
Give me Jesus.

Give me Jesus.
Give me Jesus,
Give me Jesus.
You can have all this world,
Just give me Jesus.

When I come to die,
When I come to die,
When I come to die,
Give me Jesus.

Give me Jesus.
Give me Jesus,
Give me Jesus.
You can have all this world,
Just give me Jesus.

Give me Jesus.
Give me Jesus,
Give me Jesus.
You can have all this world,
You can have all this world,
You can have all this world,
Just give me Jesus.

So yeah simple yet amazing. I know this may sound weird but i want this song along with others played at my funeral. I want everyone to know that Jesus is all i wanted in my life thats it.

I would have to agree, Jeremy Camp is AWESOME :) I like to listen to "Give me Jesus" when I first wake up, it helps get my mind focused on him instead of thinking about all the earthly things I have to do for the day.
