King & Country Cambodia (Final part)Today’s Journal is from a great man – Paul BuchananThe song, called Together, is written and sung by a music group called For King & Country. I’m not a music teacher nor do I sing, but somehow, I felt they would enjoy the song and relate to the lyrics. With much trepidation I asked if they would print a few copies of the lyrics so that we could read them and then listen to the song. The girls gave me their full attention and listened intently as I read the lyrics. Then, as we played the song, the girls began to sing, wiggle and move with excitement to the beat of the song. |
Songs sung by the girls |
Now fast-forward a year and I have returned to Marlene and Vera‘s House for a selfish dose of heaven. As I once again ride the wave of excitement into the house the girls are extra excited, giggling, and laughing. It was then that they asked me to sit down because they wanted to perform something for me. When they pushed the play button, the familiar song, “Together “, began to play. As the lyrics played, the girls began to sing and act out the song. |
Wonderful moments come in a very meaningful performance |
Their synchronized movements and the heavenly sound of their voices would make any Broadway choreographer jealous. As I watched in amazement, tears of joy and excitement welded up in my eyes.I could tell they had worked so hard on this surprise for me and their joy overwhelmed my heart. As their presentation ended, two of the girls came forward and shared how the song had become the anthem of the house and had brought healing, forgiveness and unity to all the girls. |
Come and share about the song |
Wow, I could have never imagined, a year ago, that my grasp in the darkness to share something with these girls could have impacted them in such a profound way… it could only be God.There are 195 countries in the world and only 43 still having kings. But now, there is a group of young ladies in Cambodia, that are serving the “King of Kings” with a renewed unity and passion that only comes from heaven. They share a unified love for the Lord and for each other that truly is “For King and Country”. |
