Hillsong’s ‘08 release, “This Is Our God” released a few days back and I have been listening to its songs regularly. Would like to mention one of the tracks which is the title of the blog post too… “Desert Song“. When I had listened it earlier, I loved its chorus n bridge, which goes like this.
Chorus:
I will bring praise, I will bring praise
No weapon formed against me shall remain
I will rejoice, I will declare
God is my victory and He is hereBridge:
All of my life
In every season
You are still God
I have a reason to sing
I have a reason to worship
I instantly fell in love with the song. Usually I love the Hillsong songs which are written/ lead by Female Worship Leaders and this time also there was no exception. Now, I knew for one thing that Brooke Fraser had written “You’ll Come” which has featured first in Hillsong United’s album, With Hearts As One and that Darlene Zschech had lead it in this album. I started wondering who would have sung it, and as it happened I couldn’t make out that Booke indeed sang it. It was a duet with Jill McCloghry.
And as is the case, I happen to fall sick, and landed home for the treatment. First thing I did was to start downloading the DVD as Omega Music ships it quite late in India. Was going thru’ Youtube when I came across the video blog for the song, which was more like a testimony. Must say it was just amazing to know the story behind the song and what all Jill went through.
In my life I’ve had ups and downs too.. but I am very much thankful to God that He takes me out from every situation and am victorious each and every time because of His Grace and Mercy.
Sharing the video. Watch it and be blessed!!
