Gospel Song

Most of us listen to some well known artist like, Rhiana, Justine Bieber, Bruno Mars and etc. Their songs contains love, friendship and many more. With some cool rhythms that can energize you and make you happy or even sad. But have we ever try to listen to some artist that sing and make songs for God? Those people are called Christian Artist. Since my blog name is "Anime and Random" it means, I can also post other topic even its not about anime.

As a music lover, I always look for some music that has a rare rhythms that's  good to my ear and has a deep meaning that can move your soul. I'm not really a christian since birth that's why back then, I really love listening to rock, metal, emo and screamo music that can bring you into the dark side of your heart. But when I first went to church and receive Jesus Christ as my savior, I begun to fall in love with the melody and rhythm of the christian songs. So in this post, I will introduce to you to some well know Christian artist that surely you will love even though your not a Christian.

The title is "Sing, sing, sing". Listening to this song makes you really sing.

And here is another favorite song of mine sang by him.

This song is a very powerful song sang by Chris Tomilin and composed by an Irish band named Bluetree. The song was like a prayer for the nation asking God to protect it from any harm, to give them hope and another chance in building a new nation. I show this video to you all because I first heard this song in the minds of the horrible tragedy in Japan. That's why I always remember Japan whenever I listen to this song. And so, I dedicate this song to the country Japan and to the Philippines. I always ask the lord to guide, protect and blessed them always whenever I listen to this song. Though its specially dedicated to the two country, I also do apply this to other country such as America, Australia and others whenever I remember them. This is really a nice song.

I saw Migiwa while searching some Japanese Christian artist on Youtube. I begun to fall in love with her voice after watching her video. Her voice was so good and even though I'm not good in Nihonggo, listening to her songs makes you know what meaning does she want to tell you.

Here is one of her song.. 

Gary Valenciano

I love this song very much. I always listen to it whenever I'm lost and don't know what to do. Try and listen to this song, it will really help you in your life.

Amazing Grace

Amazing grace was one of the oldest gospel song and one of my favorite. Its a little bit funny because, I just discovered it while watching So-Ra-No-Wo-To. Sometimes, anime can really give you a heavenly message that really comes from God. It has a very powerful meaning and great melody. It think every nations has a version of it. 

 Here is a good version by Christ Tomilin.

Final Comment:

Why not give it a try listening to them? Surely their songs will gave you what you really need in your life.
