I know a lot of you have probably heard this song by now,
I haven't heard anyone talking about them, is it just me? The lyrics are awesome- right?
If you can't relate, I want to meet your balanced self.
I admit at first I was denying the whole the in the middle idea thinking i wasn't going to see myself as "strateling the fence" or "lukewarm" for fear of being spit out by God (yeah, i thought this). Then i realized i was thinking too much about these lyrics and needed to consider them for how i am sure they were intended: to help us realize we are a process, always in the works.

"Somewhere In The Middle"
Somewhere between the hot and the cold
Somewhere between the new and the old
Somewhere between who I am and who I used to be
Somewhere in the middle, You'll find me
Somewhere between the wrong and the right
Somewhere between the darkness and the light
Somewhere between who I was and who You're making me
Somewhere in the middle, You'll find me
Just how close can I get, Lord, to my surrender without losing all control
Fearless warriors in a picket fence, reckless abandon wrapped in common sense
Deep water faith in the shallow end and we are caught in the middle
With eyes wide open to the differences, the God we want and the God who is
But will we trade our dreams for His or are we caught in the middle
Are we caught in the middle
Somewhere between my heart and my hands
Somewhere between my faith and my plans
Somewhere between the safety of the boat and the crashing waves
Somewhere between a whisper and a roar
Somewhere between the altar and the door
Somewhere between contented peace and always wanting more
Somewhere in the middle You'll find me
Just how close can I get, Lord, to my surrender without losing all control
Lord, I feel You in this place and I know You're by my side
Loving me even on these nights when I'm caught in the middle
Somewhere between the hot and the cold
Somewhere between the new and the old
Somewhere between who I am and who I used to be
Somewhere in the middle, You'll find me
Somewhere between the wrong and the right
Somewhere between the darkness and the light
Somewhere between who I was and who You're making me
Somewhere in the middle, You'll find me
Just how close can I get, Lord, to my surrender without losing all control
Fearless warriors in a picket fence, reckless abandon wrapped in common sense
Deep water faith in the shallow end and we are caught in the middle
With eyes wide open to the differences, the God we want and the God who is
But will we trade our dreams for His or are we caught in the middle
Are we caught in the middle
Somewhere between my heart and my hands
Somewhere between my faith and my plans
Somewhere between the safety of the boat and the crashing waves
Somewhere between a whisper and a roar
Somewhere between the altar and the door
Somewhere between contented peace and always wanting more
Somewhere in the middle You'll find me
Just how close can I get, Lord, to my surrender without losing all control
Lord, I feel You in this place and I know You're by my side
Loving me even on these nights when I'm caught in the middle

Don't think I've heard this song, yet, but I know what you mean about relating to it...
I always think about Billy Joel's I Go To Extremes.
billy can write, sing and play anything he wants. where has he been?
i get caught up in extremes waaay to much too, i think that may be part of being somewhere in the middle.
Exactly...
I think I may have heard a while back that he was going to take some time off to compose more classical music.
But I may have made that up.
I haven't heard the song yet either but I LOVE Casting Crowns (well, all two songs of theirs that I know) I need to be introduced to some more....
