Hideout<\/a>\n<\/td><\/tr><\/table><\/b><\/center>\n<small><i><b>Via Wikipedia &#038; Jesus Freak Hideout:<\/b><\/i> Chasing Furies was an American Christian alternative rock band from Fort Worth, Texas, active in the late 1990s. The band featured siblings Sarah MacIntosh (lead vocals, guitar), Joshua Meeker (guitar, vocals), and Rachel Meeker (piano, vocals), delivering atmospheric, emotive indie rock with poetic lyrics rooted in faith and introspection. Their sole major release, *With Abandon* (1999) on Sparrow Records, blended dreamy melodies, raw emotion, and worshipful themes in tracks like &#8220;Thicker,&#8221; &#8220;I Surrender,&#8221; and &#8220;Whisper Softly.&#8221; Praised for its artistic depth in the Christian music scene, the band disbanded shortly after, with Sarah MacIntosh continuing as a solo artist and worship leader. A hidden gem of late-&#8217;90s Christian rock, their music still resonates for its vulnerability and spiritual honesty.<\/small>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-4-3 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"Chasing Furies - Thicker\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/ydjzF6mJ-9I?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I saw you first before that thick fog overwhelmed you<br>You came in quickly covering your eyes<br>So you like it<br>So you like it<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I can&#8217;t touch you now<br>I can&#8217;t see you now<br>Through the haze<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But your laughter<br>It lingers now<br>You are melting away<br>And your laughter<br>It lingers now<br>You were swept away<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">I seemed to wait forever for you to return<br>I think you found someone else to talk to<br>Maybe someone like me<br>Someone like me<br>I call out to you<br>I reach out to you<br>Through the haze<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">But your laughter<br>It lingers now<br>You are melting away<br>And your laughter<br>It lingers now<br>You were swept away<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Was it something about the clearness here<br>Was it easy&#8230;to accept as it is<br>Should it be thicker<br>With more thought about it<br>Lost before&#8230;<br>Should have recognized the familiar scent of the fog<br>Drifting in (x7)<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here it comes now&#8230;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Follow: Buy: eBay CDandLP Charts: Spotify Apple Music Last.fm Events: Songkick Bandsintown Learn more: Wikipedia Jesus Freak Hideout Via Wikipedia &#038; Jesus Freak Hideout: Chasing Furies was an American Christian alternative rock band from Fort Worth, Texas, active in the late 1990s.
