Music moves the soul, or at least, that's what Pinterest quotes tell me.
You might be familiar with I Will Wait by Mumford and Sons. For those of us who feel like we're waiting forrrever (so, everyone?), this is a good one.
And did you know that Matt Maher wrote My Only Love while he was single and longing for his future bride? Gold.
You're Not Alone by Marie Miller, while not specifically about this stage of life, aids in dancing out your singleness angst. It's a good "I'm here for you, friend" song. ("interesting" music video, but GREAT song)
Well, thanks to good ol' Spotify, I've discovered one more. Listen below. Love. Repeat.
Any suggestions for me and my collection? Do tell.
oh, I love all of those songs ... knew all but the last one, but such a lovely tune! I once heard Matt Maher speak about that song and that he wasn't even thinking of his spouse, but thinking of the Lord and a period in his spiritual life. For me that makes it more beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThat's so funny because when I saw him a couple years ago, he said he wrote it for his spouse! But, that is how most love songs are, right? They're so easily applicable to Him!
DeleteSome of my favorites: "Haven't Met You Yet" - Michael Buble, "Somebody" - Bonnie McKee, "While I'm Waiting" - John Waller, and "Someday Soon" - Francesca Battistelli. I have probably listened to all of these way too many times. :)
ReplyDeleteThose are great suggestions! Thanks, Trudi!!
DeleteLove The Civil Wars! That song is one of my faves!
ReplyDeleteAlso good - "hold onto hope" by Amy Stroup... and anything on her "Other Side of Love" album.
Ohhh Amy Stroup!! I forgot about that one! :)
DeleteNo one mentioned "Wait for Me" by Rebecca St. James? That helped make her famous... although her now-husband had apparently never heard it before they met.
