You guys know I’m a John Mark McMillan fan. His CD “The Medicine” is being re-released by Integrity Media. Ok, great a re-release of a CD you already have…wait there is more. John Mark added 4 killer songs to the album including:
- Between the Cracks
- How He Loves
- Carolina Tide
I can remember listening to his first CD “Hope Anthology” at the Freakstock music festival in Gotha, Germany in the summer of 2005. My brother and I, along with 15 friends, had been all over Europe for almost a month and we were spent. I’ve never been so desperate for God to come hang out with me. I listened to “My Only” over and over as I sat there in our rain drenched tent writing in my journal. The reality that God is my only hope had never been so real. I honestly felt like I would be gasping for air if He wasn’t right there in the tent with me. God came through….like He always does.
Here are the lyrics to “My Only”
My Only

All day long
We are sinking just like stones
Into the shadow of your kindness
In this shade
Between the wingspan of your face is
The only place
Where we can bed these burdens down
so I
Lift my eyes up to the hills
Who is gonna help me now
You’re my only
You’re my only
You’re my only hope
Tangled up
In the great ridiculous
Way you love
it is the only way to live
There’s no escape
When you look at me that way
Staring like a deer into the headlights of your praises
Lift my eyes up to the hills
Who is gonna help me now
You’re my only
You’re my only
You’re my only hope
You’re my only
You’re my only
You’re my only hope
And you come like the sun
With pockets full of redemption
And you come
With the sun
With the sun
And you come like the sun
With pockets full of redemption
And you come
With the sun
With the sun
With the sun
With the sun
With the sun
With the sun
With the sun
With the sun
