Weightless (Download a Free Song)

A couple of weeks ago I mentioned the music of Christa Wells and told you how much I’ve enjoyed her song “Weightless.” Christa came across that post and was kind enough to offer the song to all of you as a free download.
You can download it by clicking here. (You may want to right-click on the link and choose “Save File.”)
Also, I’ve got 5 copies of her album Frame the Clouds to give away. Leave a comment or retweet this post and I’ll randomly choose 5 winners. Each of the winners will be mailed a copy of the CD.
Here again are the lyrics to “Weightless,” a song about the freedom of forgiveness.
Nothing scalds
like the memory of wrongs I did when I was young
how could I, how could I
I’m sorry
I see the eyes
of the ones that I so carelessly abused
how could I, how could I
I’m sorry
Well, I’ve carried this a long time
in a well hidden bundle on my back
but I’ve realized repentance is weightless
so I’ll leave my burden on the tracks
And then I face
the yesterdays that disappointed
misunderstood by a cruel world
and I’m angry
You might suppose
the years would close the curtains on a scene
from such a time, but this was mine to harbor
Well, I’ve carried this a long time
in a well-hidden bundle on my back
but I’ve realized forgiveness is weightless
so I’ll leave my burden on the tracks
It’s gonna be like delivery that’s overdue and getting too heavy
Then suddenly, I’m weightless
If you’d like to buy the rest of her album, you can do so through her web site, through iTunes or through Amazon.

How terrible that the only time I have commented is because of a freebie!:) Please know that God is using your words and meditations to bless and challenge my heart and so many others that I know!
The album is great! Got it (not for free) on your first article - thanks! Have listened to it a million times or so…Keep going, brother!
Thanks for the contest!
Good song.
I’m in. Thank you!
Definitely, nothing beats free music. Except perhaps free books? Or free grace!
Thanks for the tune!
Tim,
Thanks again for sharing Christa’s music. I actually followed your earlier comment and found her music, for the most part, to my liking. In fact, I have bookmarked her site and listened to her CD several times. I’d love a copy. So sweet of her to give us this song and offer the five copies. Please pass along my appreciation. I have already shared her music with a few friends. i trust she is blessed by her generosity.
