SONG #17: Newsboys - Entertaining Angels

January 28, 2014

Another song by a popular band in the Christian Music Industry.
Once again, this entry represents a lot of other songs by the Newsboys that probably
won't make it. "Going Public" was a fantastic album that really launched the band into a whole different level of popularity. "Take Me To Your Leader" was a fun album that I listened to a lot in my earlier high school years. But then "Entertaining Angels" was released in April 1998, as I was about to graduate, and it took my love for the Newsboys to new heights.

This was another one of those songs that was in heavy rotation in my Discman as I started life at Concordia, The refrain is incredibly catchy to this song, although I'm not church if I spent hours trying to think about what the lyrics meant. Again, it totally fits the angsty, "life is hard, I'm a screw-up, but God is with me" script that was so very real to me those years.
