INVINCIBLE ~ From the album ‘Postcards In The Sky’
Invincible Lyrics
I started a war Sent out the battle cry And I’ve been here before Fighting me, myself and I When I try to prove that I’m never gonna lose I push too hard I push too far Try to be brave ‘til it’s more that I can take So many times ‘Til I realize
Take a breath Look at how you’re trying to think it to death When you’re in the crossfire don’t forget That you don’t have to be invincible Take a step Even if you fall it ain’t over yet If you’re in the crossfire don’t forget That you don’t have to be invincible Ooh, Ooh
I counted to ten Stepped back so I could see How bad it can get When I’m the enemy
I put my weapons down Until I found a better way, a better way I’ll never change if I’m too afraid to break Got to let it go, let the whole world know to
Chorus
Bridge: You’ll never know Never know how strong you are ‘Til you’re strong enough to let your armor fall

davidarchie Every 6 months I take a little weekend break, wherever I might be, to listen to my church’s world conference. Yesterday I was able to attend in person. My heart hurts hearing about another shooting in Vegas. In a world where so much is going on, with natural disasters, shootings, hate, wars, depression and anxiety, fears, and so many other things going on we ask ourselves “Where can I turn for peace? Where is my solace?” That’s what speaker Jean B Bingham talked about in the conference yesterday morning. Sometimes it’s hard to trust. But there is a source of healing, and that is from Christ. Jean Bingham also mentioned there is a way to become free from the constraints of our own misunderstanding. Well, how? One way I’ve gained it is watching and listening to men and women of God in these conferences. I loved how a big emphasis was on trust and to “lean not unto [our] own understanding.” (Proverbs 3:5-6) my love is with the victims of the recent Vegas shooting, and also with the many still recovering from the natural disasters. I’m left asking however (as powerful as prayer is) what more can I do than just thinking about them and praying. Let’s allow sad things to bring us together, become united and do something to help others. May our prayers turn us to action. We can be the helping hands and the light in even the darkest times of an other’s life. If you’d like to watch a talk from the conference, I’m putting the link in my bio today. #trust#thoughts#ldsconf#jeanbbingham#prayforlasvegas
Looks like we will be getting a new David Archuleta song in the next 28 days! And the rest soon after!!! David leaked it in his latest IG story, kinda just slipped it in lol. Make sure you read David’s little notes through out. And we’re also treated to his singing! I for one cannot wait!

@davidarchie New song and video called My Little Prayer now up! Link in bio.
Something I try to do to each day is begin by saying a prayer in the morning, and then end my day with a prayer at night. Sometimes, however, I fall asleep before I say my nightly prayer. One time almost a year ago I had one of these nights where I fell asleep before saying a prayer. Something unusual happened.
That night I had a dream. It was different than anything I had experiences before. In my dream I was praying-having a conversation with God. The conversation was also different. I was singing. I could hear simple chords in my dream that I was laying a simple melody and prayer on top of.
As I was having this conversation in music with God, He told me to get up and write this down. I thought and said, “…but… I’m sleeping. I’m not sure I know how to get up from a dream!” He told me “if you don’t get up now, you’ll forget it in the morning.” I tried everything I could to wake up, and I did! There in the middle of the night I went straight to the piano with the words and melody I had spoken in my dream still clear in my head, and wrote it all down. It was the fastest I had ever written a song because I feel this one was given to me.
I’ve sung this song several times this year now and people kept asking where to find it so I felt it would be good to share it during this Holiday season. I hope you enjoy it and find encouragement to begin your own simple and sincere conversations in prayer! #mylittleprayer#prayer#christmas#lighttheworld
David will be participating in two sold-out performances tonight and tomorrow.

David Archuleta’s “#minivlogger” latest instagram just because 🙂
davidarchie I’m just sitting at my gate in LAX waiting for my flight to take off and then think “…Why can I hear myself? Is someone messing with me?” It’s funny when everyone you’re around is listening to you and they don’t know it’s you. Probably don’t even notice nor care to be honest but It’s still kinda funny. I wish I could do that in real life–just sing in the airport all I want out loud and know one knows or cares. 🎤#lax#airport#crush#minivlogger
As always, hoping for videos, pictures any news from the events 🙂
Christmas concert dates and Venues announced!
I’ll be adding ticket sale information as it becomes available in the thread. You can also check David’s OS or his booking agency Windish.
