For the Band...

I am relatively new to SouthBrook and have been attending since summer 2011. I love the music. The band is outstanding! The following song by Josh Bates, in my eyes, is representative of SouthBrook's philosophy...

You Say Come by Josh Bates

Sometimes life can wear me out
Like I'm swimming upstream
Sometimes life can drag me down
The pursuit of all my dreams
And life can get so hard to understand
But one thing remains constant
You are always reaching out Your hands

You say come, all who are weary
You say come, every exhausted soul
And I will give you rest
Come, all who are hurting
You say come, all you broken and bruised
And I will give you rest
Come

I keep wasting my time
Chasing things that leave me empty
I keep taking a drink
From a well that leaves me thirsty
If only I would listen and learn
And take the time to read my Bible
I could hear the words where...(chorus)

Come and live abundant life
Come and bring your mess
Come and have a taste of mercy
And rest

Though I feel imperfect at times, and have made mistakes, I feel welcome and accepted at SouthBrook. I would love to hear the band play this song!
