The last song on the album is a great example of how a group can play music besides Christian labeled music, yet still get across an unabashedly Christian message. It is entitled, "He Ain't the Leavin' Kind," and it is completely about God being there no matter that some don't believe in Him or may lose their faith in Him for a period of time. Here are some of the lyrics:
They tried their best to drag him outWhat a great song!!! That is so true. So many times we think God isn't concerned with our lives when bad things happen, yet He is always there. We were never promised a life of roses, just that He would always be by our side through it all.
of a courthouse down in Montgomery
Now they want to kick him out of school
And take him off our money
They can take those words off of paper and stone
But he aint gone, no
He ain't the leavin' kind
He'd never walk away
Even from those who dont believe
And wanna leave him behind
He ain't the leavin' kind
She stayed mad at him for a lot of years
For taking her husband
Started losing her faith and thinking that
Her life meant nothin
But when she looks at those kids
She raised all by herself
She knows she had some help
Yeah she knows
He ain't the leavin' kind

I hear that the singer and his cousin (black hair guy) are Christians. Country music has Jesus everywhere thru Brad Pasiley, Carrie Underwood, Brooks & Dunn and Rascall Flatts.
I love that!
Anon...that's cool. My favorite of theirs is "Bless the Broken Road" from the "Feels Like Today" album.
ML...that is AWESOME!!! Thanks for sharing that =)
I've become a fan of them recently also. I was impressed with Carrie Underwood in the same way. Her "Jesus Takes the Wheel" song has a powerful message. And anonymous is right about Country Music.
