Wednesday Weekly Blogging Challenge: My Favorite Song Lyrics

 


The Wednesday Weekly Blogging Challenge is hosted by Long and Short Reviews. They offer this blog hop as a weekly prompt to help you gain new friends and visitors. You don't have to participate every week, but if you decide to post and join the blog hop for a week, Long and Short Reviews asks that you share your link on their weekly post on their website (it will be the top post on the home page each Wednesday morning). The link list remains open for new links for 48 hours. Visit the other bloggers participating to see what they discuss that week. Comments are appreciated. 

Happy hump day! I promise I haven't forgotten my blogging friends this week. I will visit you and respond to your comments. Between today and tomorrow, my schedule is tighter than an elephant's girdle, but Friday should bring with it some breathing room. 

Today's topic for the Wednesday Weekly Blogging Challenge is favorite song lyrics. I am 57 years old, a former dancer, and I love singing. Can you imagine how many favorite song lyrics I have rattling around my brain? Here are a few you might know:


And I felt a rush like a rolling bolt of thunder
Spinning my head around and takin' my body under
Oh, what a night
"December 1963 (Oh, What A Night)" by the Four Seasons

Disappointment followed him home
He hoped for so much more
But he saw himself in a light
He had never seen before 
'Cause if the priest who failed could find the grace of God to be enough
Then there must be some hope for the rest of us 
"We Fall Down" The Best of Mark Lowry Volume Two

I, I did it all
I, I did it all
I owned every second that this world could give
I saw so many places
The things that I did
Yeah, with every broken bone
I swear I lived
"I Lived" by One Republic

She loved more than anything else
She loved with all of her heart
She loved everyone she believed in
She loved, oh, she loved
"She Loved" by Jeff & Sherri Easter

And when you're weak, I'll be strong
I'm gonna keep holding on
Now, don't you worry, it won't be long, darling
And when you feel like hope is gone
Just run into my arms
"One Call Away" by Charlie Puth

This, this is for all the girls 
Boys all over the world 
Whatever you've been told
You're worth more than gold 
So hold your head up high 
It's your time to shine
From the inside out it shows 
You're worth more than gold
(Go-o-o-old, you're go-o-old) 
You're worth more than gold
(Go-o-o-old, you're go-o-old)
"Gold" by Britt Nicole

Looking forward to checking out your favorite song lyrics.

Currently, I want to sing to the world "Gold" by Britt Nicole:
Whatever you've been told
You're worth more than gold
So hold your head up high
It's your time to shine
From the inside out it shows

And when my time is over, I want to shout to the world "I Lived" by One Republic:
I, I did it all
I, I did it all
I owned every second that this world could give
I saw so many places
The things that I did
Yeah, with every broken bone
I swear I lived

Mark Lowry! Back in the day he was a comedian, but people forget he was a lyricist, too.
