Hey Estelle,

For sure, being able to feel God's presence in such a small space, when He is so infinitely large that He's able to waft a constellation with His hand -- what a NIGHT!

As for Charlie Hall. It's not recorded on any of his albums as of yet - his last one is still On the Road to Beautiful. However, lucky for you, he lead that song at 7|22 last week. A friend of mine was able to rip a *.wma of the feed (it's in great quality), if you want it let me know. www.722.org is the site for 7|22, pretty sure it's in "Part 2 - My God Can Kick Your god's Butt" and after the sermon (while the congregation writes their confessions on idols, waiting to be smashed :D). If you want the *.wma, e-mail me at chrisluk@gmail.com, and I'd be glad to forward it to you.

If you found the chords on pwarchive.com, I figured out some alterations to it, most notably a change from A/C# to D/C# -- watching the 7|22 bible study for the week, I'm pretty sure that's what he plays instead - plus, it's a more logical walk-down:

Center
Charlie Hall
D, Capo 2 = E

Verse:
D2 D/C# G
Christ be the center of our lives
D/C# D2
be the place we fix our eyes
D/C# G
be the center of our lives

Chorus:
D2 D/C#
We lift our eyes to heaven
G D/C#
we wrap our lives around Your life
D2 D/C# G D/C#
we lift our eyes to heaven to You

Other:
D2 D/C# G D/F#
Turn your eyes upon Jesus,
G D/F# Asus
Look full in His wonderful face,
D2 D/C#
And the things of earth
G
will grow strangely dim,
D2 A D2
In the light of His glory and grace.

I hope that helps. I'm definitely sharing that song the next time I get the honour to lead worship! A powerful, yet simple declaration.

Keep being a light to those around you. Thanks for the blessings statement, remember (from one of Louie's talks): "Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in the heavenly realms with every spiritual blessing in Christ.: - Ephesians 1:3 NIV
