Devotion for Monday, July 18 (Secular Music Week)


Friends, this week I will be offering the lyrics to some secular songs (as well as a link to the songs) as our devotions.  I would love to hear from you as to secular songs that have sacred meaning to you. 

To begin, I offer the song "Free Ride" by Edgar Winter.  I love this song, especially as I imagine it being sung by the God who comes near to "give you a hand and lead you into the promised land."

Free Ride
Edgar Winter


The mountain is high the valley is low
And you're confused on which way to go
So I've come here to give you a hand
And lead you into the promised land

Refrain: So, come on and take a free ride
Come on and sit by my side
Come on and take a free ride
All over the country I've seen it the same
Nobody's winning at this kind of game
We've gotta do better, it's time to begin
You know all the answers must come from within

Refrain: So, come on and take a free ride
Come on and sit by my side
Come on and take a free ride
