A few weeks ago this song took me by surprise during a chapel. I was having a particularly rough week, and this song brought tears.
Right before our retreat, this song came up again when we were discussing which songs we wanted to include as part of our worship for the weekend. We included it in our playlist.
Today, during chapel, we sang this song again.
God speaks when you least expect it.
"From The Inside Out"
A thousand times I've failed
Still your mercy remains
Should I stumble again
Still I'm caught in your grace
Everlasting, your light will shine when all else fades
Never ending, your glory goes beyond all fame
Your will above all else
My purpose remains
The art of losing myself in bringing you praise
Everlasting, your light will shine when all else fades
Never ending, your glory goes beyond all fame
In my heart, in my soul
I give you control
Consume me from the inside out
Let justice and praise
Become my embrace
To love you from the inside out
Everlasting, your light will shine when all else fades
Never ending, your glory goes beyond all fame
And the cry of my heart is to bring you praise
From the inside out
Lord my soul cries out
A thousand times I've failed
Still your mercy remains
Should I stumble again
Still I'm caught in your grace
Everlasting, your light will shine when all else fades
Never ending, your glory goes beyond all fame
Your will above all else
My purpose remains
The art of losing myself in bringing you praise
Everlasting, your light will shine when all else fades
Never ending, your glory goes beyond all fame
In my heart, in my soul
I give you control
Consume me from the inside out
Let justice and praise
Become my embrace
To love you from the inside out
Everlasting, your light will shine when all else fades
Never ending, your glory goes beyond all fame
And the cry of my heart is to bring you praise
From the inside out
Lord my soul cries out
I love this song too. Such meaningful words to reflect on.
ReplyDeleteWelcome to my world of having songs in your head :)
ReplyDeleteWe sing this song at our church and I love it. It is something that I want for my life...to be able to give God the control of my life....with all of my heart and all of my soul...to long for Him to be the one that holds the reins of my life...but sadly, I am SO quick to grab them back at the first sign of things going in a different direction than I want...sigh...thank goodness for God's amazing grace!
ReplyDeleteHope that things are going well. Loved the post about your trip to Disney World...I'm a little jealous...I've never been...but it was fun to see the girls enjoying the wonders of Disney!
Love you girl!
Don't you love it when God gives you words when you need them most. I had the SAME thing happen last week (so I have to share it with you) - woke up with this song - Salvation is Here, Hillsong United. In fact I had the chorus in my head but didn't even know the name of the song...I found it and added it to my favorites. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V9oaLyXqAPs ....'From the Inside Out' is also on my favorite list :)
