A Weird (but GOOD) Thing Happened the Other Day

 The other day, when I was mopping my bedroom, Danny Gokey's "Tell Your Heart to Beat Again" started playing. At first I thought it was Alexa, but I wasn't talking, so I didn't know why she'd suddenly start playing music. It turned out to be the CD in my alarm clock. I was across the room, so I didn't hit anything to make it start playing. I love that song ... it's so appropriate for my life right now ... so I let it play.

By the time I finished mopping my bedroom and bathroom, "I Can Only Imagine" by Mercy Me was playing. I requested that song to be played at Davy's funeral. It was the last song they played before excusing us.

I was going to let the CD finish playing, but as soon as I walked out of the room, the CD stopped.

"Tell Your Heart To Beat Again" by Danny Gokey

You're shattered
Like you've never been before
The life you knew
In a thousand pieces on the floor
And words fall short in times like these
When this world drives you to your knees
You think you're never gonna get back
To the you that used to be

Tell your heart to beat again
Close your eyes and breathe it in
Let the shadows fall away
Step into the light of grace
Yesterday's a closing door
You don't live there anymore
Say goodbye to where you've been
And tell your heart to beat again

Beginning
Just let that word wash over you
It's alright now
Love's healing hands have pulled you through
So get back up, take step one
Leave the darkness, feel the sun
Cause your story's far from over
And your journey's just begun

Tell your heart to beat again
Close your eyes and breathe it in
Let the shadows fall away
Step into the light of grace
Yesterday's a closing door
You don't live there anymore
Say goodbye to where you've been
And tell your heart to beat again

Let every heartbreak
And every scar
Be a picture that reminds you
Who has carried you this far
'Cause love sees farther than you ever could
In this moment heaven's working
Everything for your good

Tell your heart to beat again
Close your eyes and breathe it in
Let the shadows fall away
Step into the light of grace
Yesterday's a closing door
You don't live there anymore
Say goodbye to where you've been
And tell your heart to beat again
Your heart to beat again
Beat again
Oh, so tell your heart to beat again
