PSYCHOcatholic Posted June 13, 2004 Report Share Posted June 13, 2004 We dont talk alot about Christian music here. Who do you guys listen to. There is a new song out by Marc Shultz called "Letters From War", and my dad just got back from Iraq, he was there for 1 1/2 yrs. So i can relate to this song a little. And the weird thing is that its a Christian Pop song, yet, it doesnt base around christianity. its cool. She runs to the mailbox On that bright summers day Found a letter from her son In a war far away He spoke of the weather And good friends that he'd made Said I'd been thinking 'bout dad And the life that he had Thats why I'm here today And that the end he said You are what I'm fighting for It was the first of the letters from war She started writing (Chorus) Your good and your brave What a father that you'll be someday Bring him home Bring him safe She wrote everynight as she prayed Late in December A day she'll not forget Oh her tears stained the paper With every word that she read It said I was up on a hill I was out there alone When the shots all rang out And bombs were exploding And thats when I saw him He came back to me And though he was captured A man set me free And that man was your son He asked me to write to you I told him i would oh I swore It was the last of the letters from war And she prayed he was living Kept on believing and wrote every night just to say (Chorus) Then two years later Autumn leaves all around A car pulled in the driveway And she fell to the ground And out stepped a captain Where her boy used to stand Said mom I'm following orders From all of your letters And I've come home again He ran into hold her And dropped all his bags on the floor Holding all of her letters from war Bring him home Bring him home Bring him home This song really really makes me teary eyed.

beatleant Posted June 14, 2004 Report Share Posted June 14, 2004 My favourite 'Christian Rock' tune is "What Would Jesus Do?" by Big Tent Revival. Yes, you could say it helps being a bit of a rocker-type tune. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rsbabes311 Posted June 19, 2004 Report Share Posted June 19, 2004 My friend recently introduced me to some good christian music because although I am a christian I hated listening to it because I thought it was all way over produced and cheesy, but he gave me this band called Daily Planet. I highly recommend it to anyone interested in christian rock. They only released one CD and because of a medical issue they have broken up for a while but may return. Once again I highly recommend Daily Planet to anyone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
