Psalm 121 "Casting Crowns"
I used to think some lyrics to songs were really corny. Like the Casting Crown song (don't know which one) that has "I lift my eyes up to the hills. Where does my help come from? My help comes from the LORD, the maker of heaven and earth." I thought they were cheesy because they were just copying lyrics from the Psalms. Having gone through God's Word in the last 9 months, I realize now how much power the words of the Bible have and no longer think of these lines as cheesy but really bolstering up the truth of the song. All that said, having been given the opportunity many times in this school to write songs based on the Psalms, I'm really blessed that we have such amazing poetry that us current songwriters can pull from to bring new praise to the LORD!
