Meaningful Lyrics

Occasionally I hear a song that speaks to me in an extraordinary way. I heard this song at work recently and wrote it down on a post it note to remember. I sit here reading the lyrics today and it really has me thinking.

Song: What Do I Know of Holy? by Addison Road


I made You promises a thousand times
I tried to hear from Heaven
But I talked the whole time
I think I made You too small
I never feared You at all No
If You touched my face would I know You?
Looked into my eyes could I behold You?

(CHORUS)
What do I know of You
Who spoke me into motion?
Where have I even stood
But the shore along Your ocean?
Are You fire? Are You fury?
Are You sacred? Are You beautiful?
What do I know? What do I know of Holy?

I guess I thought that I had figured You out
I knew all the stories and I learned to talk about
How You were mighty to save
Those were only empty words on a page
Then I caught a glimpse of who You might be
The slightest hint of You brought me down to my knees

(CHORUS)
What do I know of You
Who spoke me into motion?

Where have I even stood
But the shore along Your ocean?
Are You fire? Are You fury?
Are You sacred? Are You beautiful?
What do I know? What do I know of Holy?

(CHORUS 2)
What do I know of Holy?
What do I know of wounds that will heal my shame?
And a God who gave life "its" name?
What do I know of Holy?
Of the One who the angels praise?
All creation knows Your name
On earth and heaven above
What do I know of this love?

(CHORUS)
What do I know of You
Who spoke me into motion?
Where have I even stood
But the shore along Your ocean?
Are You fire? Are You fury?
Are You sacred? Are You beautiful?
What do I know? What do I know of Holy?

What do I know of Holy?
What do I know of Holy?

I recently decided it was time I finally buckle down and read the bible through. To stop coming up with excuses not to. So while I am only 7 days in I am determined to continue & will see it through. As I sit here reading these lyrics it reminds me how crucial it is to read the bible through. The only way I can know who God is is by reading about him in scriptures.

Doctors Appointment

I feel a little bit odd writing this one out, but I would really appreciate the prayers. I have a doctors appointment on March 31st to do a coloscopy from an abnormal pap. My doctor says its nothing to worry about and that it's the most common abnormal pap, but I can't help but worry. I am already praying that when I go everything will be clear & no signs of whatever caused the abnormal results to begin with.

Thanks for the continued prayers for us.
