ONE Music: Leeland

Since our launch, prominent artists from all musical genres have been joining ONE and the fight end extreme poverty. Today, the “four-piece Texas outfit” Leeland, fronted by 18-year old songwriter Leeland Mooring, is showing their support by sharing their song “Tears of the Saints.”

Listen to Tears of the Saints, and all the ONE Music, on the ONEcast.

Below, a message from Leeland:


“As followers of Christ, we believe that we have an urgent calling to our world; a calling of love and mercy. Now is the time, more than ever, for Christ followers to awaken to this reality. We must extend our arms to our world…not only ourselves. However, our hands will not move until our hearts are changed. We believe God desires for his children to be broken with the things that break his heart…for there to be ‘Tears of the Saints’.

The world is watching and waiting for us to move. God is watching…He is longing for his children to share his heart: a heart of compassion, redemption, grace, hope and justice. So we’re stepping out and encouraging others to join us as we seek to follow the heart and model of Jesus. If the power of love and mercy is awakened, the potential impact in this world is endless. Doing nothing, changes nothing. Doing something, changes everything!

-Leeland

    You guys inspire me. Sometimes it feels lonely-trying to be real, trying to be a Christian and an activist for human rights…I’m so happy that you support ONE and You are standing up for our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ who IS THE WAY THE TRUTH AND THE LIFE. I’m sure he is proud of you guys stepping up and helping to lead others to help the poor.

    I saw you a few months ago. Your music had a very real and in your face message. You didn’t hide anything about the love of Jesus in order to please people.This is very rare, even among Christian Artists. The music really touched me and forced me to re-examine my life and walk with Christ. It forced me to stop living selfishly but selflessly. You have truly exemplified this in helping others through this website. Thank you and God Bless. HE truly is Beautiful, Awesome, and Mighty. – Britt

    Leeland-Saw you guys in Glendale Saturday Sept 29th ’07. Was so touched and inspired to love like Jesus does. You are amazing and truly anointed and blessed of our Lord and Almighty Savior! Praying for your protection and continued passion for the Truth and never to compromise to please anothers. I first found you on MySpace and hadn’t heard your music. Listened to the samples and had to have your CD. Love it! Every song leads me into the presence of God. Keep on Keeping on until the day we see His face….meet you there :) ONE is awesome and I thank the Lord for all they do. Our youth group is supprting them with selling the bracelets. We support it!
