Thoughtful Thursday...

So, my husband being the cd hoarder of all time, I decided to add to his collection and get him a few more cd's for Christmas. Well, on his list of like literally 50 cds, I chose about 4, one of them being the latest Addison Road cd. Well, Marcus tends to leave his newly acquired collection of cds in the Jeep all the time, so I sometimes take advantage of the time I have with them and listen. On the way to small group Tuesday, I was listening the Addison Road cd and the song "What do I know of Holy" was playing. Below are the words, but, for some reason or another, I really listened to the words and was sincerely struck at how true those words are for me. Just read the words and you will see what a powerful punch they make and how they really make you take an honest look at yourself and your relationship with God:

I made You promises a thousand times

I tried to hear from Heaven

But I talked the whole time

I think I made You too small

I never feared You at all No

If You touched my face would I know You?

Looked into my eyes could I behold You?

(CHORUS)

What do I know of You Who spoke me into motion?

Where have I even stood

But the shore along Your ocean?

Are You fire? Are You fury?

Are You sacred? Are You beautiful?

What do I know? What do I know of Holy?

I guess I thought that I had figured You out

I knew all the stories and I learned to talk about

How You were mighty to save

Those were only empty words on a page

Then I caught a glimpse of who You might be

The slightest hint of You brought me down to my knees

(CHORUS 2)

What do I know of Holy?

What do I know of wounds that will heal my shame?

And a God who gave life "its" name?

What do I know of Holy?

Of the One who the angels praise?

All creation knows Your name

On earth and heaven above

What do I know of this love?

(CHORUS)

What do I know of You

Who spoke me into motion?

Where have I even stood

But the shore along Your ocean?

Are You fire? Are You fury?

Are You sacred? Are You beautiful?

What do I know? What do I know of Holy?

What do I know of Holy? What do I know of Holy?
