U2: 40
This is truly a fantastic worship song originally track 10 o�n the War album and then the closing track o�n Under a blood red sky which is by far the best version to use.40 is what it says Psalm 40 and the chorus will float around your head for hours. It is infectious and powerful; it is full of truth and can o�nly be described as pure worship.On the live version when the instruments fade and you are just left with the crowds singing the chorus over and over you can sense a connection with God being made.Personally I don�t think the DC Talk version does this song justice as the vocal simplicity of U2 version is complicated by them and much is lost by that, but don�t take my word for it check it out for yourself. If the young people you are working with relate to such bands this track will be used again and again.BeefThe lyrics are below:”40″I waited patiently for the LordHe inclined and heard my cryHe brought me up out of the pitOut of the miry clayI will sing, sing a new songI will sing, sing a new songHow long to sing this songHow long to sing this songHow long…how long…how long…How long…to sing this songHe set my feet upon a rockAnd made my footsteps firmMany will seeMany will see and fearI will sing, sing a new songI will sing, sing a new songI will sing, sing a new songI will sing, sing a new songHow long to sing this songHow long to sing this songHow long…how long…how long…How long…to sing this song
