*Day 13: A band or artist who has gotten you through some tough days.*

I love listening to music. I have to have music on for filler noise ... and definitely as I am driving down the road. (I even used to have a radio in my shower.) I mostly listen to Country or Contemporary Christian, but I am a child of 80s rock, and even enjoy some pop. I am generally able to be pleased with most music genres - just kind of depends on my mood.
I have always found it funny that whatever mood I am in, or whatever struggle I might be dealing with, a song always manages to come on the radio that is perfect for what I am feeling. But today's prompt asks me to name a band or artist, so I guess I need to pick one.
If I really had to pick one, I think it would be Chris Tomlin. I just love his songs because they are worship. As soon as I hear one, I am compelled to sing along ... and as soon as I do, the words start hitting hard and I can't help but worship my God. No matter what I am dealing with (good or bad), spontaneously breaking out into songs of worship are perfect. My God will help me through the hard times ... but He is also the reason I am as blessed as I am.
One particular song that always comes to mind when I start reflecting ... or somehow always manages to play on the radio when I need it most is Chris Tomlin's song "Our God" .... it completely defines who God is to me and gives me comfort that no matter what I face, He will lead me through. Perfection.

Here are the lyrics to that song:

Water You turned into wine
Open the eyes of the blind
There’s no one like You
None like You
Into the darkness You shine
Out of the ashes we rise
There’s no one like You
None like You

Our God is greater, our God is stronger
God You are higher than any other
Our God is Healer, awesome in power
Our God, Our God…

Into the darkness you shining
Out of the ashes we Rise
There’s no One like You
None like You.

And if Our God is for us, then who could ever stop us
And if our God is with us, then what can stand against?
And if Our God is for us, then who could ever stop us
And if our God is with us, then what can stand against?
What can stand against?
