Every so often I will choose a Christian song and spotlight it on this page. Songs may be of various styles but each one I choose will have a special reason why I chose it. I’ll give you as much info about each song, and the band, as I can and provide a video and lyrics.
Starfield
Starfield – Reign in Us
http://www.starfieldonline.com/
Canadian Christian rock band Starfield is from Winnipeg. Beginning in 2001 by self-publishing their first album Starfield has won several Covenant awards in Canada.
The lyrics of this song are powerful. At the core of this song is a desire for God’s will to be done in everything we do. The quality of the YouTube video is not the best so I appologize for that but the message is clear.

Lyrics:
You thought of us before the world began to breathe
And you knew our names before we came to be
You saw the very day we’d fall away from you
And how desperately we need to be redeemed
Lord Jesus come lead us
We’re desperate for your touch
[Chorus:]
Oh Great and Mighty One, with one desire we come
That you would reign, that you would reign in us
We’re offering up our lives, a living sacrifice
That you would reign, that you would reign in us
Spirit of the Living God fall fresh again
Come search our hearts and purify our lives
We need your perfect love
We need your discipline
We’re lost unless you guide us with your light
Lord Jesus come lead us
We’re desperate for your touch
[Chorus]
We cry out
For your love to refine us cry out
For your love to define us cry out
For your mercy to keep us blameless until you return
[Chorus 2x]
You would reign in us
[Bridge:]
So reign, please reign in us
Come purify our hearts we need your touch
Come cleanse us like a flood and send us out
So the world may know you reign, you reign in us
[Repeat Bridge 3x]
