The ZS Band

Selected by Billboard Magazine and Taxi as one of the “Top 15 Acts From the Midwest” as part of the Discmakers 2006 Independent Music World Series, Zach and Sarah have been performing and leading worship at events and conferences around the United States for more than ten years. They currently oversee the worship and student ministries at River of Life in Cedar Rapids, IA under the covering of best-selling author and international speaker Francis Frangipane. With an exceptional band and a passionate, relevant pop sound, their music reflects a desperate longing for more of Jesus mixed with a genuine freedom rooted in God's love. Stylistically, their sound is strongly influenced by Delirious and the Brit-pop worship movement, with a sound evoking comparisons to Darrell Evans and Coldplay.

I'm ready to fly- I'm ready to sing- oh, oh
I'm packing these bags with the weight of my world
And I'm casting them to the wind
I'm ready to live- I'm willing to die for this
I'm spreading these wings, gonna take to the skies
And I'm not coming back again

I've been dreaming all my life
Of something wonderful and free that I could live for
The cross before, the world behind me now
You've touched my eyes and now I see You here (at last)
There must be more than this (2x)

And I- I was made to walk with You
And I-I was born to breathe the air of heaven
And I-I stand speechless at Your beauty
And I-I will lift your Name above all else

I'm ready to fly...
