I’ll hold on to what is true though I cannot see
If the storms of life they come and the road ahead gets steep
I will lift these hands in faith
I will believe
I remind myself of all that You’ve done
And the life I have because Your Son
Love came down and rescued me
Love came down and set me free
I am Yours I am forever Yours
Mountain high or valley low
I sing out remind my soul
That I am Yours I am forever Yours
When my heart is filled with hope
and every promise comes my way
When I feel Your hands of grace rest upon me
Staying desperate for You God
Staying humbled at Your feet
I will lift these hands and praise
I will believe
I remind myself of all that You’ve done
And the life I have because Your Son
Love came down and rescued me
Love came down and set me free
I am Yours I am forever Yours
Mountain high or valley low
I sing out remind my soul
That I am Yours I am forever Yours
I am Yours
I am Yours
All my days
I am Yours
I am Yours, I'm Yours forever
I am Yours, I'm Yours forever
I am Yours, I'm Yours forever Lord
Love came down and rescued me
Love came down and set me free
I am Yours I am forever Yours
Mountain high or valley low
I sing out remind my soul
That I am Yours I am forever Yours"
I just heard this song for the first time this evening. It's called "Love Came Down" by Brian Johnson. I love the chorus of this song - it just makes me smile to remember and think about how Christ came down and set me free because he loves me! And man do I need his rescuing --- everyday I need him. I need his promises. I need his love. I need his hope. I need his wisdom. I need his forgiveness. I need his words. Sometimes I need that reminder for my soul that I am HIS I am FOREVER HIS!
The second half of the second verse was convicting for me tonight.. "Staying desperate for you God, staying humbled at Your feet.." --- sometimes I am not desperate for my God. I don't like to type that out because I don't want it to be true, but sometimes I am not. I get to some points in my life where I feel like I am coasting right along and everything is great and I lose that desperation for Him. How do you keep that desperation for God even in the good times? The more I think about it, I keep coming back to having daily time in the Word and in praying - truly getting to know my God on a personal level (which might be one of my biggest failures). I think if I do that, a relationship with between me and God will develop like an extremely close relationship. The type of relationship where you miss talking with and continually learning about the other person - in the good and bad times. I want to long for my time with the Lord, like I long for conversations with certain friends. Like I said above, I know I NEED that time and everything that I gain from that time with Him (I know from past experiences) - but somehow, sometimes that doesn't always translate into my staying desperate for Him. I am working on my daily time with the Lord and pray that my selfishness of wanting more sleep, wanting to do something else instead, always making excuses - doesn't get in the middle anymore!
Just a few thoughts I had when listening to this song tonight, and I wanted to share (probably with myself since I don't push this blog...haha). It's just good to get these thoughts out. :)
