When things begin to get you down or the world overwhelms, it usually helps to listen to music that inspires you. A song I've recently found very inspirational, among many - even though I don't understand the words - is a song from the sound track of the documentary Patterns of Evidence

I feel you! I love so many different types of music. I love military based/inspired songs.
Rumble by Link Wray
Good 'un!
There are 100's of inspirational country music songs!
A couple of mine:
Wow, I haven't heard that one in awhile :-):
How 'bout:
Inspirational for working out? :-)
Another: Usher - Numb
AMAZING GRACE........humbling
BECAISE HE LIVES......for encouragement to be able to withstand what we are going through right now with Zero and the mess he has made as well as facing ISSA.
Last but not least: "IT IS WELL WITH MY SOUL", no matter what happens, it is well with my soul.
Each of these is a prayer.....I sometimes sing the Lord's Prayer to try to get to sleep, never make it all the way through. Then I have to apologize to GOD for not finishing and go again, FAIL. Until the Lord just says will you just Go to Sleep. me OK.
and the sun goes down like honey on our Lady of the Harbour.
It's when I say mine nightly. I usually get thought Freepers before falling asleep. :-)
This is one you sing loudly when you, or your neighbors need to stay awake:
“He has sounded forth the trumpet that shall never call
retreat
He is sifting out the hearts of men before His judgment
seat
Oh, be swift my soul to answer Him! Be jubilant my feet!
Our God is marching on!
I always thought words like that could inspire men to
storm the gates of hell.......But,then, Obama became
president.
And for good wholesome family inspiration and we survivors ...

How Great Thou Art. Mine too. Makes me teary every time I hear it.
Like it - My first time hearing them. Thanks!
‘’IT IS WELL WITH MY SOUL’’
The hymn story about how/why it was written is a real tear jerker.
Amen and they have some really other good stuff going on in youtube ...

We sang all the patriotic songs when I attended grade school in ancient times, late 50’s to early 60’s. Said the pledge of allegiance and celebrated Christmas, too. The horror.
For those that don't know, just Google who wrote "It is Well With My Soul".......grab a tissue.
