You Deliver Me

This is one of those weeks I would much rather forget, only it's probably one that I will always remember. Not for any one reason, but for all the reasons that continued to compile, one after another, stripping my strength, defeating my soul. Survival. That is all I have been hoping for.

After a sweet time in the Word this morning, and hearing God's voice through my circumstances, He gave me this song. You need to understand, music speaks to my soul. It is at the very core of who I am. It is, a apart from God's Word, the way my soul feels most intune with the Lord.

And so, better than I can put into words, Selah has provided "You Deliver Me." And today, after this week, it is my anthem.

What I'm accutely aware of - and the reason for this posting - is there is a world around me of hurting people. Daily disappointments have happened in your life. Tragedy, crisis, heartbreak... And so, I share this with you, too, praying it will be a healing balm to your soul as it has so aptly done for me.

You Deliver Me

Deep as the ocean, Bright as rain
This power emotion lifts me up above the planes
It's taken me to places I never thougth I'd go
Showing me a grace I never thought I'd know

When I feel like I can't go on
You Deliver Me
When the road is winding and way too long
You Deliver Me
You Deliver Me

I feel like a sinner, my sins have been washed clean
I'm absolutely given, this heart has never seen
I must be forgiven sometimes asking why
I was chosen to be given you in this life

When I feel like I can't go on
You Deliver Me
When the road is winding and way too long

You Deliver Me
You Deliver Me

When there's a distance
Between what I am and who I want to be
You Deliver Me
