GALAXIES - OWL CITY

When I hear this song, I am reminded of a song written by David, who became king of Israel hundreds of years before the birth of Christ. 

It goes ‘ Where can I go from your Spirit? Where can I flee from your presence?  If I go up to the heavens, you are there; if I make my bed in the depths you are there. If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle on the far side of the sea, even there your hand will guide me, your right hand will hold me fast.’  Psalm 139:7-10

It doesn’t matter where in the whole galaxy, (or universe for that matter) that we may end up in,  we have a God who will guide us and show us the way, when we may be lost. 

Jesus called himself ‘The Morning Star’ in Revelation 22:16. He is the one we can fix our eyes on, and get our bearings in life, and follow down the narrow path that leads to life. 

‘...set your hope fully on the grace to be given you when Jesus Christ is revealed.’ 1 Peter 1:13

‘We have this hope as an anchor for the soul, firm and secure.’ Hebrews 6:19

‘...it is by grace that you have been saved’ Ephesians 2:5

GALAXIES

Call back the cap com,

Tick off the time bomb,

Let felicity fly.

Armor the air lock,

Blanket the bed rock,

And kiss the planet goodbye.

Dear God, I was terribly lost

When the galaxies crossed

And the sun went dark.

But dear God, You're the only North Star

I would follow this far.

Da da da da da dada da

Fight back the flight deck,

Bring on the break neck

Cue the solar eclipse

Summit the sunset

Dubtail the dragnet

And blow your backbone to bits.

Dear God, I was terribly lost

When the galaxies crossed

And the sun went dark.

But dear God, You're the only North Star

I would follow this far.

Oh telescope,

Keep an eye on my only hope,

Lest I blink and get swept off the narrow road,

Hercules, you've got nothing to say to me,

'Cause you're not the blinding light that I need.

For He is the saving grace of the galaxies (galaxies, galaxies, galaxies, galaxies)

He is the saving grace of the galaxies (galaxies)

Dear God, I was terribly lost

When the galaxies crossed

And the sun went dark

But dear God, You're the only North Star

I would follow this far.

I would follow this far.

(Through the galaxy)

Da da da da da dada da
