Oldie but a Goodie

Chances are you've heard about the Jonas Brothers. And if you haven't, well you must have been living under a rock the last couple of years. ;P They are a singing group of brothers that formed their own band. Now, all the brothers have dispersed and are doing their own thing. I have to say i'm slightly disapointed in some of the choices they have made but I am in no position to judge them. They initially came out as strong believers and introduced alot of people to purity rings. Regardless of what they're up to now, I still enjoy some of their older music.

Recently, one of my favorite songs has been "Dear God." Now this song isn't from the band "Jonas Brothers" but is from the youngest brother's (Nick) solo career before he started the band with his brothers
Here are the lyrics to "Dear God" by Nick Jonas

Dear God
I hate to be a bother
But I gotta say
This world is getting crazier with every day
I hope you'll hear me out now
As I stop and pray

Dear God
People take your words
And try to twist 'em round
I know you can't be happy
With what's going down
I'm searching for some answers
But they can't be found
Can you help me out?
Dear God

Dear God
Just the other night I heard somebody say
"What's the use believing in you, anyway?"
I guess it was just heartache
Talking through the pain
It's a crying shame

Dear God
I know you're disappointed
In the things we've done
Can't they see the truth
That they're all running from
Try to preach your message with a loaded gun
What are they thinking of?
Dear God

Everybody's searching for an easy solution
They can't see beyond
The selfish world they're living in
Your words of love get lost
In all the confusion
Yes, they do
But I still believe
Someday you're gonna speak to me

Dear God
I know you've got a million other calls to take
You're dealing with a lot of things
That just won't wait
But there is one request
That I just gotta make

Dear God
Won't you send a sign down
Just to ease my doubt?
I'm trying to hear you
But the silence is so loud
I think I see a rainbow
From behind the clouds
And I hear you now, dear God

Isn't that awesome? It's like a story of someone who is desperately trying to grow in a relationship with the Lord. I think it's pretty cool, and pretty relatable. So Check it out! Download it! Put it on your ipod! In my book it's definitely an Oldie but a Goodie! ;)
