The Rainy Day

By: The Debbie's
Genre: wierd austin powers, mello 60's Euro sounding stuff...lol
and a little out of key, pitch, tune, and tone...sorry
The Debbie's cant sing.
click and then click on praise songs and then 'Rainy Day'
(takes a moment to download, be patient)

You said when you were a little boy
You heard His voice and was scared away
Until you saw there's no better way
You found Him there on that rainy day.

And did you feel the rain
Did you see the rays shine through (that day)
Did He take you by the hand
Did He whisper, 'Let come what may'
(repeat)


And He Said...
Follow me and I'll give you
All that I am
Faith in me and you'll
do more than you ever can

(simultaneous verse and chorus)

(A currently untitled song)
By: this cool chic I know

In the darkenss all alone
longing deeply to be home

you cant run and you cant hide
when there is nothing left inside

and I close my eyes and feel the pain
with tears weld up I sing your name

then I know...

You've never left me
I was never alone in this place
Your love has kept me
tears are running down Your face, for me

Oh how you love me, Jesus
How do you love me so?

On the Da Vinci Code:
Fact: Well written attention holder, entertaining and a real page turner.
Fiction: everything else
I dont even want to waste my time commenting on this book. Personally I think anyone who reads this book and goes away thinking that the contents contain real factual information that has been withheld from everyone until now, should feel a little troubled by the ability for someone to influence them by merely stating it as FACT. The only fact in of that book was that it was a good FICTION NOVEL and if it didnt suggest such horrible miss truths, I would actually recommend it to read!

If any of you are familiar the fairly new fictional novel The Da Vinvi Code, you would know of its intrigue and abiltiy to capture its audience into a thurst for more. It is written in such a fasion that each chapter tells a piece of a story frequently going back and forth between different characters who all play a part in the final conclusion of the story. This automatically sets a sence of anticipation. Along with its great ability to capture the readers attention, it attempts to keep its intrigue by offering 'long lost facts' and unpopular explanations for things in our culture that many people often wonder about but do not press on to find the answers themselves. How smart. To produce a well written, novel where there is never a dull moment and then to add trivial factual information that sparks interest and offers a sense of gaining secret knowledge, is an ingenious skill to produce an award winning novel as well as to decieve the reader into believing and even converting thier own understandings or thier lack of knowledge in an area, into those of the author. You see this is as far as my praise for this books goes. Although I am not completely finished with the book, I have come to the conclusion that there is something horrifically wrong with this text. I came to this conclusion while discussing this book with family members who are currently reading it. As more and more of the book was quoted to me, I realized that this book contained some false information or atleast some miss interpreted historical facts. This book suggests of many Anti-Christian beliefs and goes as far as to presume that the very foundation of Christianity is only based on a propagand of the early church to institute a religion that was construde to become something more than it was. When I heard this novel regarded to as truth, thats when I decided it was time for me to collect a copy as well as a copy of some other viewpoints on the subject. Further blogs will enlighten you as to what I have come up with... please comment!
