Seven-time Grammy Award-winner Hillary Scott released her first Christian album,
Love Remains, this
year and received nominations in two categories in this year's Grammy awards. One for "Best Contemporary
Christian Music Performance/Song" for her debut single, "Thy Will" and the other for "Best Contemporary Christian Music Album."
"Thy will be"
I'm so confused
I know I heard you loud and clear
So, I followed through
Somehow I ended up here
I don't wanna think
I may never understand
That my broken heart is a part of your plan
When I try to pray
All I've got is hurt and these four words
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
I know you're good
But this don't feel good right now
And I know you think
Of things I could never think about
It's hard to count it all joy
Distracted by the noise
Just trying to make sense
Of all your promises
Sometimes I gotta stop
Remember that you're God
And I am not
So
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
Like a child on my knees all that comes to me is
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
Thy will
I know you see me
I know you hear me, Lord
Your plans are for me
Goodness you have in store
I know you hear me
I know you see me, Lord
Your plans are for me
Good news you have in store
So, thy will be done
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
Like a child on my knees all that comes to me is
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
Thy will be done
I know you see me
I know you hear me, Lord
I like the rhythm and of course the message is great: COUNT YOUR BLESSINGS!
Listen to it and be inspired!
BLESSINGS

[Verse 1: Lecrae] Yah, yah, yah Count it up, count it up, count it up Line 'em up, line 'em up, line 'em up Swear the sun shinin' on me in my huddle No matter the trouble surroundin' us They don't see that it's a lot of us Everybody move anonymous Won't take that credit, I know where we get it Them blessings be comin' from God above I was doin' all kinda bad Where the choir at? Tell 'em I need a verse Hit the pew and tell God He's first Hit the studio to body a verse I remember pushin' mama's little white Hyundai with no gas money I just bought a car, cash money I ain't even tryna brag on it I just tell it how it really is I ain't trippin', they ain't feelin' this I ain't sayin' I deserve nothin' I'm just tryna talk about the benefits I've been punchin' in the clock Tryna keep the kitchen stocked Man it's a blessin' 'cause we ain't ever had a lot But all we need is all we got

[Verse 3: Lecrae] I took so many losses Coulda lost it Left 'em leakin' like a faucet Almost cost me Everything that I got, all of my fam Part of the plan I was eatin' fried bologna out of the pan Y'all don't understand I was tryna get it I'm in that studio tryna keep it pushin' Patty pies, boy I kept 'em cookin' All I needed was the Mary Mary But the God in me was havin' commentary, woo! I got angels all around like Anita Baker Blessings fallin' in line, guess I need a taper And every loss is a lesson Tell my haters I confess Treat 'em like the green bubbles on the iPhone I probably never read the message
