This Month's Free Download
For this month's free sheet music download we are offering 'You bled' by Rend Collective Experiment
And now for something completely different? Practically revolutionary? Beyond the typical? Yes. To all three. The signing of Northern Ireland’s sprawling worship project – Rend Collective Experiment – to Survivor records is a line in the sand, the start of something fresh which reaches far into the future.
Rend Collective Experiment defies expectations even from the start of the bio. Not so much a band, more a bunch of friends collectively wondering how to make sense of the conundrum of life, God and community in and around their native Bangor, Northern Ireland.
What Rend Collective Experiment’s fifteen plus members add to the sound are lyrics that are both scriptural and contemporary, fresh and ancient.
Story behind the song by Rend Collective Experiment
“Life isn't simple. Sometimes the complexities and busyness of living can make us hardened or cynical. That’s how we feel as a collective when times are difficult, but Jesus calls us to humble ourselves and become as a child. "You Bled" was God's call to us to move past the questions and remember the simple truth that "Jesus loves us". The children's song "Yes Jesus Loves me" inspired part of the song. It may seem silly in some ways for adults to sing but really when you move past the walls we build, it’s the greatest truth we hold.
We were really aware of the intensity of the sacrifice of the cross when we were writing "You Bled”, it can never be underplayed. The fact that God's beauty was exchanged for our ugliness is wonderful in its truest sense. Around communion or anytime in our walk with God we need to remember that Jesus bled his whole heart out so we could feel love beat strong in our chest. We feel that this song was a gift to us to remind us of God's boundless love and the importance to stay like a child before Him.” – Rend Collective Experiment
YOU BLED YOUR HEART OUT Now I feel love beat in my chest How wonderful You gave your beauty In exchange for my ugliness How wonderful
You left your perfection And embraced our rejection
How marvellous, how boundless Is Your love, is Your love How wonderful, sacrificial Is Your love for me
You put on our chains Sent us out through the open door How wonderful You took our sadness Crowned us with joy and real peace How wonderful
You left Your perfection And fought for our redemption
Yes Jesus loves me Yes Jesus loves me How wonderful Yes Jesus loves me This is love You gave Yourself
