This song came across the iPod recently and caught my attention. Ironically enough, it came on at a time when I was reaching the end of a very long run. My legs were weakening and my strength was all but gone. I couldn’t help but think how fitting it was that sometimes it takes a complete break down of our will, our thoughts, or strength to surrender to the Lords will. I cannot personally listen to the words in a moment of quiet and not be somewhat broken. What a reminder today of who we are and what we are called to do.
If you haven’t heard this song yet, below are the full song and Jeremy Camp’s devotional with a “behind the music” look at why he wrote it.
Full Song:
Jason played this at church last week. Great tune!
Man! I wish I would have been at THAT service! I can’t get enough of this song at the moment. Jeremy Camp just gets it. What a blessing. Love the lyric:
I’ve taken things I’ve thought my own
Only to reap what I sown
You’ve given back the years I’ve fought
An Ending love and grace You brought
Eternal hope and peace You bring
And forever unto You I will sing
