It’s not quite done, but I’m posting it anyway! I can’t wait any longer! ;)

Here is Least of These, as some of you heard at the 30 Hour Famine concert. I’m planning on adding some harmonies to it yet, as well as some bass. But it sounds great already! Let me know what you think! :)

Lyrics:

Oh how I long to be free from the weather
Free from the snow and the rain
Oh how I long to be free from desire
The freedom of nothing to gain

Remember, remember

Our lives are but only a moment in time
We were designed for much more

But for now I’ll serve the least of these
With all that I know they’re craving
All your love and hope is bleeding
To be brought to those who are needing

I will enjoy all the blessings you give me
I’ll play in the snow and the rain
Though I am ready to be done here
Your work over here isn’t done

So use me, Lord use me

I will fall and I’ll crack myself open
But that’s how your love will shine through

So for now I’ll serve the least of these
With all that I know they’re craving
All your love and hope is bleeding
To be brought to those who are needing

And I know that you’ll show
Me the way to be to deliver me
To the broken and outspoken
To reveal to all how your mercy calls

So for now I’ll serve the least of these
With all that I know they’re craving
All your love and hope is bleeding
To be brought to those who are needing
