52 Weeks-Episode 11: Selah (Your Grace Comes Down)

Tuesday, January 19th, 2010

Today’s celebration: A catchy piano riff marries thoughts on God’s grace. With the right producer and a sufficiently auto-tuned voice we’re pretty sure this could be the next Christian pop radio hit. (Watch out Owl City.)

We’re also pretty sure we have no idea what we’re talking about.

This song marks an important milestone in our 52 weeks. We’re 21.1538% done. Check it out! 1/5 of the way there.

The word “selah” often shows up between sections in the Psalms. Scholars debate whether it means the listener should pause and consider what they’ve just heard, or enjoy a musical interlude. Either way we think it’s appropriate.

Enjoy the song.

This song is part of a Songwriting Exercise we’re calling 52 Weeks. Check in next Friday for yet another song. Listen and let us know what you think, and be sure to subscribe to the podcast on iTunes .
