My brother gave my wife a bunch of Wow CDs that he'd collected over the past several years (for a while the WOW cd was a perennial Christmas gift). I don't quite understand why he gave them up—something about veiled references to God and a preference for hymns set to older music scores—but what's one man's trash became my wife's (and, by extension, my) treasure.
Psalm 112 by 4Him is from the WOW Hits 2002 album. The chorus is a repetition of Psalm 112:1 ("Blessed is he Who fears the Lord / Who finds delight In His commands"). The song starts out with the singer establishing how short our lives are, and then explains that he's "looked for wisdom On how to best live This brief life", and found the truth in Psalm 112. In the second verse he shares that we all need to find some kind of guidance, and that he has some friends who could benefit from this wisdom as well. In the bridge, he feels that he is "evidence that God is good to those Who live by faith".
The chorus has a great sound, and is very catchy—all the more cool because it's scripture. There's a fun part when the chorus goes up a step, and that's always fun when a song does that.
