Dogwood are the best band in the world, and here is why.

Dear Dogwood. 

You are a band who kept me looking to heaven and to Jesus during my teenage years. It's because of songs like these ones below that I had a heart that was being filled with life rather than death. It is because of that I am forever grateful.

Faith
I have faith no one believes
I love a God no one can see.
You put your trust into thin air.
That’s what they all told me.
But I believed because of fear,
And I can see you crystal clear.
I know that you will, meet me here.

I walk the narrow path.
Perplexed and befuddled.
I’m persecuted, plagued and I’m troubled.

My past my history,
My future’s a mystery.
There’s only one certain thing
That’s for sure.

It’s my God who is so real.
He makes my life easier to deal.
With the aid of his goodness.
I experience true bliss.
Do you understand your life is in his hands? 

Confusion is my hat;
Centrifuge of hurt is where I’m at.
I request some help with that.

My past my history,
My future’s a mystery.
There’s only one certain thing that’s for sure.

It’s my God who is so real.
He makes my life easier to deal.
With the aid of his goodness.
I experience true bliss.
Do you understand your life is in his hands? 

I have faith no one believes
I love a God no one can see.
You put your trust into thin air.
That’s what they all told me. 

Never Die
Faith like a rock,
The size of a seed,
Eternal life,
It's all you need.

Work your will,
My life is yours,
Rejoice in You Lord.
My faith in you will never die.

Live fast,
Die slow.
Stand back,
Let go.
Choose life.

You'll see,
How awesome it is when God sets you free,
Live eternally.


Do or die
I killed the Son of God today.
I built the cross where He was slain.
My sins,
The hands that held the hammer that drove the nails through His skin.
Someday I win.
I want to make it up.
I want to die to myself for You.
It makes me fall apart,
When I think of all that You went through.
I owe my all to You. (I owe my all to You)

[Chorus:]
Because when it came to do or die.
You died for me,
Though I would be nothing perfect,
For human eyes to see.

My hands are Yours for works.
My eyes will seek until I've found You.
My legs will walk the earth,
Until You tell me my work is through.
I want to make it up,
I want to die to myself for You,
you are the one that i love,
i owe my all to you (i owe my all to you)

I met the Son of God today,
He said "I forgive you for My pain"
He took my sin that held the hammer 
that drove the nails through His skin,
He said I win.

I'm a new creation through You,
Created for You by You.
So make me worth Your while,
Put me to use.
you are the one that i love,
I owe my all to you (i owe my all to you)

I met the Son of God today,
He said "I forgive you for My pain"
He took my sin that held the hammer 
that drove the nails through His skin,
He said I win.

I'm a new creation through You,
Created for You by You.
So make me worth Your while,
Put me to use.
