Run To Spirit

 I love the fact that the Leap Over Walls collection represents a diversity of music. In our library we not only claim the contemporary, rock, jazz, but also the hymn, and the southern Gospel. Our God is all-sided, speaking to all His people. His message calls to all, and every sheep knows His voice. That is why you will find musicians in every field. Music is powerful. Music is soothing. Music is soul-searching, reaching the soul when nothing else can. Babies stop crying, mad men cool their heels (1 Samuel 14:23). It reminds you, resonates with you, making memories clearer still.

It is history. For instance, stemming from the sounds of  African spirituals, comes the song Run To Spirit. The music and lyrics recall the pain of another era. Theatrical in presentation, it is a joy to listen to. It gives instruction for escape, with the realism of a journey well run, in Spirit and in truth.
