The Word “Enter by the narrow gate; for wide is the gate and broad is the way that leads to destruction, and there are many who go in by it. Because narrow is the gate and difficult is the way which leads to life, and there are few who find it."
A Psalm of David when Nathan the prophet went to him, after he had gone in to Bathsheba.
We too come to a place before the Lord when our sin overwhelms us and we throw ourselves upon His mercy, just as David has done here. We too also know that no Other can blot out our iniquity and we crave His cleansing and His restoration and joy of His salvation. No sweeter sound than that of the Lord saying, “Come unto Me, my child, you are forgiven”. Nothing can cause us to worship God more than knowing we are truly His.
15 O Lord, open my lips,
And my mouth shall show forth Your praise. 16 For You do not desire sacrifice, or else I would give it;
You do not delight in burnt offering. 17 The sacrifices of God are a broken spirit,
A broken and a contrite heart—
These, O God, You will not despise.

I love this band! It is so refreshing to hear songs like this, where the scriptures are simply put back across to the listener in a way that is acceptable to the ear.
Obviously I don’t know in reality, but if I were to imagine what it would be like listen to David singing the psalms he wrote, it would not be far off from what I am experiencing right now.
Thank you for introducing me to these guys Jessie. Now all I have to do is find out how to get hold of some of their stuff.
Contentment "Christian contentment is that sweet, inward, quiet, gracious frame of spirit, which freely submits to and delights in God's wise and fatherly disposal in every condition."

Don’t worry, I just found their website and there is all the info I need there.

Bless you brother John!
I recently purchased the album, Shelter, that this track is taken from and can thoroughly recommend it.
It’s available on iTunes at a much cheaper price than on their own website.
