Sometimes...

Meditation in song...


Sometimes every one of us feels
Like we’ll never be healed
Sometimes
Sometimes every one of us aches
Like we’ll never be saved
Sometimes

When we’ve given up
Let Your healing come
When there’s nothing left
Let Your healing come
‘Til we’re rising up
Let Your healing come
Where You go, we will follow
Where You go, we will follow

It’s Your love that we adore
It’s like a sea without a shore
We’re lost in You, we’re lost in You
It’s Your love that we adore
It’s like a sea without a shore
We’re lost in You, we’re lost in You
Sometimes

Sometimes
It’s like we’ll never atone
For all the love we’ve known
Sometimes
Like in a smile or a song
When you feel it come
And that feeling’s gone
It flies

When we’ve given up
Let Your healing come
When there’s nothing left
Let Your healing come
Feel it rising up
Let Your healing come
Where You go, we will follow
Where You go, we will follow

It’s Your love that we adore
It’s like a sea without a shore
We’re lost in You
We’re lost in You
It’s Your love that we adore
It’s like a sea without a shore
We’re lost in You
We’re lost in You
It’s Your love that we adore
It’s like a sea without a shore
Don’t be afraid
Don’t be afraid
Just set your sail

And risk the ocean there’s only grace
Let’s risk the ocean there’s only grace
Let’s risk the ocean there’s only grace
Let’s risk the ocean there’s only grace

Written by David Crowder 

There are songs that come into your life that you will never be able to get rid of... well, there are many that are written by David Crowder that in this category. His gift of writing is... I can't even define it in one word, but that it is God given! His depth into the heart of who we are is frightening. I mean how can a human being be so spot on with our irrational emotion. I have related to each verse with hurt and pain. Verse one brought back awful memories of my life about 5 years ago. 

Shattered, broken, beyond hurt... the thought of NEVER being healed again. 

Yea, I've been there, and it's amazing I will never forget it either. 

It's fresh in my heart, in my mind... gut wrenching ache to think of it. 

But His healing came, it comes, and it comforts. 

Verse two why me? Why atone this disgusting sinner, this sorry excuse for a Christ follower? The smile appears and flies... gone...


The burning conviction killing every ounce of sinful nature. The sanctification process is beautiful brutal transition. The healing rises up into our being the same being that has the dwelling of the Holy Spirit and you follow, you set sail, you get lost in HIM! Don't be afraid! DON'T BE AFRAID! 

We try so hard to keep control, but let's risk it all, let's risk the ocean... THERE'S ONLY GRACE!!! Accept that gift... when you do RISK IT ALL -- THERE'S ONLY GRACE!!!

there's only grace
Beautiful grace, wonderful grace, undeserving grace

AMEN!
