The Power of One
In these past few week I am reminded time and time again of God’s unrelenting desire to be near us, to be near His children. We think we have to clean house before we can come to God—make ourselves presentable, package up our problems into neat little bundles, polish all our lumps of coal.
We spend so much time maintaining our outward appearance and reputation, trying to hide what is truly inside from those around us. Maybe we get caught up in playing "Christian" and forget how to approach God, or more correctly stated: maybe we forget how God desires to approach us? Not as perfect beings, but as broken, desperate people willing to accept salvation through Christ. God wants to meet us where we are—how we are—because that is where truth exists.
The Power of One by Israel Houghton
Sing Redemption’s Song
By Israel Houghton and Tommy Sims (play)
I was lost, I was desperate and broken
Wounded heart and the wounds were still open
That’s the way You found me
That’s the way You found me
Turn the page by Your hand
Yesterday washed away as You write in the sand
My accusers, where are they?
One by one in the silence they all walk away
And I will worship You for all that You are
And all You’ve done for me
As long as I live I’ll sing
I’ll sing redemption’s song
Weeping comes in the night
But there’s joy, blessed joy in the morning sky
Now that I, I belong
To the One who has given the words to the song
And I will freely sing of all that You are
And all You’ve done for me
As long as I live I’ll sing
I’ll sing redemption’s song
Sing redemption’s song
All that You are and all You’ve done for me
As long as I live I will sing
I will sing redemption’s song
I was lost, I was desperate and broken
That’s the way You found me
That’s the way You found me
That’s the way You found me
That’s why I love You
That’s why I love You
That’s why I love You
That’s why I love You
That’s why I love You
That’s why I love You, why I love You
