I have a song to share. (: Lyrics actually since there is no music accompanying it.{yet}
Some of you may have heard it because i probably might've played it around you.
I encountered this song when I was in church. Steve Chau, former member of Singing Water {I should post a song from singing waters (: } came and told us a testimony. It was very touching. It actually even answered some of my wonders and question about things. Powerful ain't it? I haven't been to church for a while that time because of homework and all, and i've been wondering so much on a question my friend and i were debating about. So one day i go to church and apparently Steve Chau was just passing by and it was unexpected for him to be here, but I feel that God has allowed me to go that day, the same day Steve {keep typing stever} Chau coincidentally came was for the purpose of resolving my answer. I don't remember what it was, i believe something about whether God tests your faith in him or not. *checks* yeah, it is. and i forgot my answer. D: must ask mom again since what she told me was EXACTLY what Steve Chau said. So anyway, near the end, he played this song. {by the way, God DOES test you in your faith. Why? Did Jesus not test Peter in his faith for Jesus while Jesus asked Peter to walk to him upon the water? ;) be ready.}
but I truly love this song with all my heart. Why?
This song is in the perspective of the God. How he is, how he feels about you etc. I think this song is deep if you listen to it very carefully. It not only puts you to ease because it shows how much God is with you and all, but the melody is also very nice. {Shall include a link to listen to it as well}
So first, read the words. Absorb all that's written and read it with your heart. Read it a few times, then listen to it. Although the singer is a female and I imagine the voice of God to be really deep, just listen to it. Close your eyes and listen to it. Don't let anything distract you, have a moment to yourself. Just you, and the thoughts that God has put into the hands of a woman to express it through a song.
I truly think it's a deep song. Here are the lyrics:
My child be all that I purposed you to be
My child there's so much more than you could ever think or see
My child, your potential is greater than you know
My child I'll take you places you never dreamed you'd go
So don't lean on your own understanding
And in all things acknowledge me
And as you trust in me with all of your heart
I will make straight your path
CHORUS: Child of mine, be mine
Child of mine, be mine
I've loved you since the beginning of time so child
Be mine, be mine, be mine
My child, you were born for such a time as this
My child there is a reason, a plan for which you exist
My child I knew you before you were conceived
My child if you think I don't care then you have been deceived
Don't be dismayed when I discipline you
It's only what a loving father would do
Now if you ask me I'll forgive you, every single thing
Just open up your heart and ask me to come in.
CHORUS: Child of mine, be mine
Child of mine, be mine
I've loved you since the beginning of time so child
Be mine, be mine, be mine
BRIDGE: Never meant for you to run, never meant for you to hide
Never meant for you to live without me in your life
But your choice has to be yours and your mind must be your own
So until you ask me in your heart your heart can't be my home.
CHORUS: Child of mine, be mine
Child of mine, be mine
I've loved you since the beginning of time so child
Be mine, be mine, be mine
INSTRUMENTAL
I know every hair on your precious head
I know everything you've done and every word you ever said
I know the number of your days
Your strengths, your weaknesses, your ways
One day you'll know how much I love you
`Cause I'll tell you face to face
CHORUS: Child of mine, be mine
Child of mine, be mine
I've loved you since the beginning of time so child
Be mine, be mine, be mine
So that's the song. Once you think you've understood it all, i encourage you to listen to it:
Enjoy it. (:

ReplyDeleteI must say.....I'm at a loss for words.
ReplyDeleteIt is too true that God tests our faith. Whether we notice it or not, fail or succeed and give praise or complain is up to us, but the bottom line comes to us going through trials and temptation so that we can grow and mature, not lacking anything.
AND!
From my amazing knowledge (from insider information, MWAHAHAHAHAH!!!!! ok, stopping), I must say that the situation was handled extremely well. Looks like a God-centered response, which is what we should strive to give at every opportunity. Simply amazing.
