Flyleaf worships in public



Hervict Jacobs tipped us off:

"You MUST watch this incredible video. I get goose bumps every time I watch it.
The lead singer of Flyleaf is at a secular concert - the massive Austin Festival - and at the end of the band's set - she does a worship song and worships God ... in front more than 20 thousand non-Christians. "
-Hervict Jacobs, link


It's a medley of David Crowder Band's "You Are My Joy, "and Hillsong United's "From the Inside Out." Notice she even made it explicit and added the word "Jesus" when it wasn't in the original lyric of second song.

And He set me on fire, and I am burning alive.
With His breath in my lungs I am coming undone.
And He set me on fire and I am burning alive.
With his breath in my lungs I am coming undone.
And I cannot hold it in
Remain composed.
Love's taken over me
So I propose the letting myself go.
I am letting myself go.

You are my joy.
You are my joy.
You are my joy.
You are my joy.

Everlasting, Your light will shine when all else fades
Never ending, Your glory goes beyond all fame
And the cry of my heart is to bring You praise
From the inside out Lord, my soul cries out

Everlasting, Your light will shine when all else fades
Never ending, Your glory goes beyond all fame
And the cry of my heart is to bring Jesus praise
From the inside out Lord, my soul cries out.

More? "All Around Me":
(if you are not convinced what/Who this song is about/to,
play the concert video version below it, and hear her unsubtle intro..)


If ya feel better seeing them at a Christian festival, knock your socks off below.
She's not afraid to preach to the choir (she even sings with Third Day on Christian radio)
as you will witness right here:




--
Band is also not afraid to tour with groups like Megadeath (as they should. Maybe they can even open for the Gaithers on Crack)

Song for Christian matryr, Cassie Bernal..Here the crowd at a decidedly secular venue sings/asks themselves: "Do you believe in God?":
