love poured out and all...

you'll be able to tell by my writing that songs, music and lyrics speak volumes to me.  our daughter went to hillsong college and their music has been an inspiration to our family.  two of their songs are below.  yesterday, i talked about Jesus' love being "poured out" "upon that cross":  

this is our God

Your grace is enough, more than i need, at Your word i will believe

i wait for You, draw near again, let Your Spirit make me new

i will fall at Your feet, i will fall at Your feet, and i will worship You here

Your presence in me, Jesus light the way, by the power of Your Word

i am restored, i am redeemed, by Your Spirit I am free

freely You gave it all for us, surrendered Your life upon that cross

great is the love poured out for all, this is our God!

lifted on high from death to life, forever our God is glorified

servant and king, rescued the world, this is our God!

i will fall at Your feet, i will fall at Your feet, and i will worship You here...

God's overflow is described in these wonder words:  

more than enough, new, presence, light,
power, restored, redeemed, free, rescued.

and especially this very little word:  all.

a wee word with grand meaning:  whole, complete, total, entire, everything.

i can't begin to define what God's all is.
i don't think i really know what my all is either.
but our all somehow encounters God's all in a divine circle.
from Him to us.  from us to Him.  love poured out.

with everything

open our eyes to see the things that make Your heart cry
to be the church that You would desire, Your light to be seen
break down our pride and all the walls we've built up inside
our earthly crowns and all our desires we lay at Your feet
let hope rise and darkness tremble in Your holy light

that every eye will see Jesus our God, great and mighty to be praised,

God of all days, glorious in all of Your ways
o the majesty the wonder and grace, in the light of Your name
our hearts they cry, be glorified, be lifted high above all names
for You our King, with everything, we will shout forth Your praise.

that's all!

thanks for letting me share,
and shout with me, if you will  :)
