Singing Here I Am with Downhere



Take 5 and listen to this song. The group is called Downhere and I really like them a lot. Great lyrics and I enjoy their harmonies. The video is from one of their concerts so it is a little difficult to hear all the words or even appreciate their talent - and you know me, I'm all about the meaning of the lyrics - so I've posted them below. This album might be a great gift for a mom you might know...hint hint nudge nudge wink wink say no more say no more...lol. Oh...and if the video and lyrics intrigue you enough, check out Downhere's official website where you can sample their album Ending is Beginning.

Here I Am
from the Downhere album "Ending is Beginning"

Sometimes your calling comes in dream
Sometimes it comes in the Spirit's breeze
You reach for the deepest hope in me
And call out for the things of eternity

But I'm a man of dust and stains
You move in me so I can say...

Here I am, Lord send me
All of my life I make an offering
Here I am, Lord send me
Somehow my story is a part of your plan
Here I am

When setbacks and failures and upset plans
Test my faith and leave me with empty hands
Are you not the closest when it's hardest to stand?
I know that you will finish what you began

And these broken parts you redeem
Become the song that I can sing...

Overwhelmed by the thought of my weakness
And the fear that I'll fail You in the end
In this mess, I'm just one of the pieces
I can't put this together but You can
