JILL PAQUETTE -- ROCKIN' GUITAR CHICK!

Okay. So I've been holding out on you. Sorry. Actually, I was on a Jennifer Knapp kick, of course, but I recently stuck one of my older CD's in that I got a couple summers ago. I thought you might be interested in some of the lyrics. I would recommend to anyone who likes Jennifer Knapp or Bethany Dillon or Sheryl Crow...lol...to buy this CD. She's not as rocky as the ones mentioned, but she has a little of all of them in her. She plays guitar and piano, and her words just rock my face off. I'm just going to copy and paste a little excerpt from her website about this song that I want you all to read. Let me know what you think!!

Peace out!
Jules


COME TO ME
Words and Music by Jill Paquette

This song was written after talking with a friend and fellow musician who was struggling with his faith. His personal relationship with God had always been inspiring to me, so when I heard the questions he was asking, it shook me a bit. But then I realized that no matter how hard the questions we ask or how difficult the situations we face, they don't change who God is. And His call to us is always the same, "come to Me."

Broken and battered your confidence shattered but I am still here
The things that you cling to they seem to just bring you right back to your fears
Were the nails and the spear in My side not quite enough to provide
The victory you need in your life

Come to Me, come to Me
If you come to Me, it'll be all right now

Depression is spending this fairytale ending you've sought for yourself
Broken glass photographs that used to make you laugh sit on the shelf
And you'd change the frame if you could, but you're doing the things that you should
Hoping that I'll think you're good enough

Come to Me, come to Me
If you come to Me, it'll be all right now

You're broken and shattered your body's been battered by what they call life
Depression is ending this life you've been spending wrapped up in your lies
And once in a while is not enough to show to Me what you call love
Don't waste My time words aren't all I want

Come to Me, come to Me
If you come to Me, it'll be all right now

Broken and battered your confidence shattered but I am still here...
