Lent Playlist

In the same vein as my Advent playlist posting, here's some tunes I'll be soaking in during Lent which starts on Wednesday. Whereas in Advent, the (oversimplified) general attitude is "This world is fallen and messed up. Come God, and make things right," the attitude in Lent is more internal: "I am not right. My sin is the issue. Come and make me right." It's a time of reflection, simplifying, self-denial, a more intense discipleship, and repentance. My experience has been that Easter is a much more powerful holy day/season when we do these things, especially corporately.

Kyrie Eleison - City on a Hill
Draw Me Nearer - Caedmon's Call
I Repent - Derek Webb
