holy


Holy
How many roads did I travel Before I walked down one that led me to You?
How many dreams did unravel Before I believed in a hope that was true?
How long? How far?
What was meant to fulfill only emptied me still And all You ever wanted…
Only me on my knees Singing holy, holy
And somehow All that matters now is You are holy, holy
How many deaths did I die Before I was awakened to new life again?
How many half truths did bear witness to ‘Til the proof was disproved in the end?
How long? How far?
What was meant to illuminate shadowed me still
And all You ever wanted…
only me on my knees singing holy, holy
somehow all that matters now is You are holy, holy...
such true lyrics. when it seems we have tried EVERYTHING we know to make life make more sense... God brings us to our knees, and we realize thats where we sould have been all along-- falling to our knees in prayer, crying to the Maker of the mountians we can't climb.
Its a very humbling experience to pray. when you think of how a holy God can look on us with love, even after all we have done, and yet to do... sometimes its hard to stand before his throne and not be ashamed, and discouraged, because i am SO not worthy and i mess up again and again. but at the same time thats what offers hope. God loves us UNCONDITIONALLY. thats a hard concept to grasp. no matter what i do, my God is going to still take care of me. he's still gonna love me the same. and because i know Christ died for ALL of my sins-- for the sins i committed ysterday, and the ones i will committ tomorrow-- i can kneel before the Throne of the Most High God, humbled, but unashamed, for Jesus' blood makes me clean.
and when i'm done wondering the roads that lead me no where, you'll find me in the place where it all began-- on my knees, singing holy, holy. and i've found that all that matters now, is he is holy, holy.
