At Lystra a man was sitting who had no strength in his feet, lame from his mothers womb, who had never walked... The innovative and passionate band Lystras Silence is devoted to proactively proclaiming the truth an entire city rejected, but that had also given power to the faith of a single, crippled man. Through the five years that they have played together, a unique sound has matured, grasping their audiences. The group brings listeners a taste of the joy experienced in having been crippled, but now standing, the richness of life that comes from knowing God. Lystras Silence is characterized by a representation of diverse musical backgrounds and influences. They've had the pleasure of uniting with other groups similar in passion and purpose. Having performed with Delirious?, Sonicflood, Plumb, Smalltown Poets, Pillar, The Supertones, Tree 63, Grits and Skillet. The depth and quality of their signature sound, however, sets them apart in modern Christian music. Their versatility enables them to not only host full performances, but also play intimate acoustic sets. With lead vocalist Sherry Muchira on keys, Tim Muchira druming, David King playing lead guitar, and John Nuhn on bass the bands strictly vertical music makes clear their restless desire to see God known by all.
Hey all. So I heard "Change" on the Effect tonight. Yeah, you all have come a long way. first time I heard you was when we played with y'all (we were "Zealot")at "Unity Fest" in Idaho way back in the day. I loved your music back then, and God moved through it to me. And I've gotta say, I'm impressed at where you are now. Good to see that y'all are movin' forward :) -Andrew
hey there. you guys said you'd send me a copy of tremble here if I put money on your paypal so I was just wondering what the deal is with that. please let me know. thanks.
"""Just wanted to tell you that I love you all and it was difficult for me to decide who I thought would DO this because many people claim to pray, but not everyone does. I hope I chose the right twelve. Please send this back to me. (You'll see why.) May everyone who receives this message be blessed. REMEMBER to pray. That's all you have to do... There is nothing attached. Just send this to twelve. Prayer is one of the best free gifts we receive. There is no cost but a lot of reward. Make sure you pray, and pray believing that God will answer. May today be all that you need it to be. May the peace of God and the freshness of the Holy Spirit rest in your thoughts, rule in your dreams tonight and conquer all your fears. May God manifest himself today in ways that you have never experienced. May your joys be full filled, your dreams be closer and your prayers be answered. I pray that faith enters a new height for you; I pray that your territory is enlarged and I pray that you step into your destiny within your ministry. I pray for peace, health, happiness and true and undying love for God."

Hey! I lovee your songs! The lyrics are so powerful and deep. I <3 them. It'd be amaaazing if you could put Passionate People on here. SUCHH a good song. God bless you guys!
we got our copies of "tremble here" in the mail the other day! wow. i think the two songs that stand out to me right off the bat are "change" (LOVE it...and it speaks directly to my heart) and "metal". dave, your solo on "metal" is phenomenal and the whole song speaks so much truth with an intense groove. i love the whole album beginning to end and my heart really really needed it right now. thank you. God has always used your music to break and grow me. love you guys!
Hey Guys, I'm syncing my Ipod with all your albums, so I'll be the goof ball at the park jamming out. Hope y'all are having a great weekend- Brent
But now, O Lord, thou art our father; we are the clay, and thou our potter; and we all are the work of thy hand. Isa 64:8
The wind bloweth where it listeth, and thou hearest the sound thereof, but canst not tell whence it cometh, and whither it goeth; so is every one that is born of the Spirit. Jhn 3:8

I can't tell you how long I've waited to add Dancing to my space. It is one of my all time favorite worship songs ever since I heard it at convention in Fresno last December and then the one night I was at camp H2O this year! Thanks for putting it up!
Wow, I haven't really been up-to-date on much Lystra-ness lately. Your new stuff is great! Any chance for a so-cal farewell show? Plus it would be great to just see you guys again.

Hey, I heard Sarah got to see you guys yesterday in Challis! I also heard she showed you the little thing I put on her finger! We are finally engaged... praise God! I love and miss you guys.
