Til Sæthers

Høyrt denne songen før? Det er Chris Rice som har skrive han og han syng han på cdèn “Run the earth – watch the sky”. Ein utruleg bra og treffande tekst. Ho Becky trur eg mange av oss som kallar oss kristne kan kjenne oss igjen i; Me går på møte, fører bønedagbok, syng for maten når me er ute og et på restaurant, me har Bibelen for handa til ei kvar tid, og me har til og med ein Jesus-fisk på bilen! Men er det nok, då? Me lever flotte, feilfrie, gode kristen-liv, men folk går framleis fortapt der ute! Kva gjer me med det? Ta deg tid til å lese teksten, og kjenn etter om det treff deg! ”Me and becky” – Deg og Becky?

But there’s a world out there that we left behind
Full of souls as important as yours and mine

Me and Becky

Becky has a house on Abundant Live Boulevard
A good name, good family, and butterflies in her yard
Becky loves Jesus and really wants to make Him proud
She tears up in church and she sings her harmonies loud
She’s got a Bible by the bed, a prayer journal, and a fish on her car
She makes sure to bow her head and give thanks in every restaurant
But is that enough?
C’mon Becky, let’s go for a ride
If I’m driving too fast then I apologize
But there’s a world out there that we left behind
Full of souls as important as yours and mine
Looks like a reckless road, and a sacrifice
And I’m crazy scared it may cost our lives
But then I remember Jesus died
So c’mon Becky
Let’s go for a ride
I’m rolling up to Becky’s house on my Sunday drive
I have to laugh to myself ’cause it looks exactly like mine
I smile and wave at all the happy people strolling by
We’ve got the same walk, same talk, and the same sparkle in our eyes
‘Cause we’re thankful for the blessings, but maybe we could lay ‘em aside
I get a feeling we might be missin’ the time of our lives
So hop in and hold on tight
C’mon Becky, let’s go for a ride
If I’m driving too fast then I apologize
But there’s a world out there that we left behind
Full of souls as important as yours and mine
Looks like a reckless road, and a sacrifice
And I’m crazy scared it may cost our lives
But then I remember Jesus died
So c’mon Becky
Let’s go for a ride
‘Cause we’re thankful for the blessings, but maybe we could lay ‘em aside?
I get a feeling we might be heading for the time of our lives
So hop in and hold on tight
C’mon Becky, let’s go for a ride
If I’m driving too fast then I apologize
But there’s a world out there that we left behind
Full of souls as important as yours and mine
Looks like a reckless road, and a sacrifice
And I’m crazy scared it may cost our lives
But then I remember Jesus died
So c’mon Becky
Let’s go for a ride
