Alligence

When I was in High School I had the priviledge of having an awesome youth pastor who shared his fears and failings and taught me much about life and walking with God. One of Chad's many gifts is the gift of Music. I still have never heard this song sung better than by him. Even more so the VOL, who wrote it. As part of the youth worship team, I have sung this song and it kept coming to memory recently, so i thought i'd share it today. I'm listing the link of off youtube from someone singing it. It was the closest i've come to the original version. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DveZ8OrswFE

Double Cure

by: Vilgilantes of Love

yeah today i'm sick of all i am

today is my setback

first i swear i love you

then i stab you in the back

i wanna drink out of that fountain

on a hill called double cure

i wanna show you my allegiance Lord

yes i wanna be a son of Yours

so tired of all my toys

they never last for long

they keep beaming dreams and wishes

to a big dish on my front lawn

bet you all have got a story

you're just aching to tell

haven't we thrown our coinage

down the wishing well

so go and call your neighbor

proceed with all due haste

go grab your wife and sweet family

see there is no time to waste

we're gonna drink out of that fountain

on a hill called double cure

i wanna show you my allegiance Lord

yes i wanna be a son of Yours

ask me why i love Him

He gave riches to this poor

yes and i will one day see that face

over yonder shore

This is simply a song I just love. We can have all that our world has to offer and still be wanting more. If we give our alligence to our God we will have riches in Heaven. Even better when we are willing to share what the we've found with others so that they can see what it's like to be a "son" of Jesus. I don't know about you, but i definitely want some of the water from that fountain.
