David Crowder Band featuring Lecrae, “Shadows”

Contemporary Christian pop-rock worship group David Crowder Band, which announced its disbandment earlier this year, has a new track out to radio, a live performance of Shadows featuring Christian superstar rapper Lecrae, off the Deluxe Edition of Passion’s Here For You CD (from which Christy Nockels’ incomparable Waiting Here For You is also lifted). While Shadows was also featured on DCB’s incredible 2009 opus Church Music, this incarnation is given a fresh shot in the arm by the energy and passion of Lecrae (who recently debuted at #15 on the Billboard 200 with Rehab: The Overdose). Altogether, a pretty terrific collaboration that should be a pretty good swan song, should DCB decide not to push through with Requiem, allegedly the working title of a final album.

SHADOWS Lyrics
David Crowder Band featuring Lecrae

Life is full of light and shadows
Oh, the joy, and oh, the sorrow
Oh, the sorrow

And yet will He bring dark to light
And yet will He bring day from night

When the shadows fall on us
We will not fear
We will remember
When darkness falls on us
We will not fear
We will remember
When all seems lost
When we’re thrown and we’re tossed
We’ll remember the cost
We’re resting in the shadow of the cross

Lecrae:
With every breath I take, every heartbeat
Sunrise, and the moonlight in the dark street
Every glance, every dance, every note of a song
All a gift undeserved that I shouldn’t have known
Every moment I lie, every moment I covet
I’m deserving to die; I’m earning Your judgment
Ah, without the cross there’s only condemnation
If Jesus wasn’t executed there’s no celebration
So, in times that are good, in times that are bad
For any time I’ve had at all, I will be glad
And I will boast in the cross, I’ll boast in His name
I will boast in the sunshine, boast in His reign
What’s my life if it’s not praising You?
Another dollar in my bank account of vain pursuit
I do not count my life as any value, precious at all
Let me finish my race, let me answer Your call

When the shadows fall on us
We will not fear
We will remember
When darkness falls on us
We will not fear
We will remember
When all seems lost
When we’re thrown and we’re tossed
We’ll remember the cost
We’re resting in the shadow of the cross

When the shadows fall on us
We will not fear
We will remember
When darkness falls on us
We will not fear
We will remember
When all seems lost
When we’re thrown and we’re tossed
We’ll remember the cost
We’re resting in the shadow of the cross
