Divine Truth Hub Forum Board (NOW CLOSED)

I love music!!

Some of these songs are written specifically about God. Some were likely written about a relationship with another person but I tend to think of them being sung for God or from God. Some relate to general topics that feel relevant to me on the DLP, and lastly, some discuss tough subjects/error-based emotions; but like movies, I find them helpful to trigger stuff that needs to be released.

I included youtube links to them though sometimes certain videos are not shown in certain countries, so you may have to search for an alternate youtube video of the song.

Hi Courtney

I am very familiar with a number of these songs as I too have found a few of the songs you have listed good for getting me into some self-reflection and feelings.

I will definitely be giving these a listen to in the near future - arranged in a clear manner too so thanks for this and for sharing.

Nicky

Ah awesome--I've been really enjoying the one you posted too!

Thanks for your suggestions Courtney. I just love
