I am a massive fan of creative song writing and lyrics are so important to me. My favourite song writers at the moment are:

• Joel Houston
  Just the way that he has created his own ‘sound’ even within Hillsong – and the way that he uses words that are not usually associated with Christian worship music, but they work so well.
• Leeland Mooring
  When you are talking amazing new song writers I dont think you could miss Leeland. With songs like ‘Carried To The Table’ and his whole new album, he is set to be a major influence!

But one song writer that has just amazed me with her music and lyrics is Brooke Fraser.

Brooke Fraser

I purchased her album Albertine a couple of months ago – and it is still one of my most played current albums. The way that she poeticly can mould such phenominal lyrics that draw you into the story that is being told.

Brooke fraser’s albums include songs on both God and life (can they be separated) and I just wanted to share some of my favourite lyrics and a few links to try to show you why I heart brooke fraser music so much!

I will be including links straight to the song on iTunes shortly which will make it easier for you to get the song if you love it!

Brooke Fraser Lyrics

C.S Lewis Song (Youtube Video)

Am I lost or just less found? On the straight or on the roundabout of the wrong way?
is this a soul that stirs in me, is it breaking free, wanting to come alive?
‘Cos my comfort would prefer for me to be numb
And avoid the impending birth of who I was born to become

Hosea’s Wife (Youtube Video)

I see the scars of searches everywhere I go
From hearts to wars to literature to radio
There’s a question like shame no one will show: “What do I live for?”
We are Hosea’s wife
We are squandering this life
Using people like ladders and words like knives

Waste Another Day (Youtube Video)

‘Cos we could stare until we both are blinded
We could fall ’til gravity gets tired
We could lose our love just to re-find it
But I’m just happy here
Happy staying beside you

Shadowfeet (Youtube Video)

when the world has fallen out from under me
I’ll be found in you, still standing
when the sky rolls up and mountains fall on their knees
when time and space are through
I’ll be found in you

Love Is Waiting (Youtube Video)

In the autumn on the ground, between the traffic and the ordinary sounds
I am thinking signs and seasons while a north wind blows through
I watch as lovers pass me by
Walking stories – whos and hows and whys
Musing lazily on love
Pondering you
I’ll give it time, give it space and be still for a spell
When it’s time to walk that way, we wanna walk it well
