The song for today is "Here In My Life" which is on Hillsong's "Saviour King" album. It reminds me of how amazing salvation is, and that God indeed rescued me - where would I be without Him? It fills me with gratitude and brings me back to the proper position of total trust and dependence on Him.
Our dear friend Esther started the song off, so I think of her every time I hear it, which is a good way to remember to pray for my friends over there in Taiwan! The song has a similar feel, both musically and thematically, as "Where the Love Lasts Forever," which is also on that album. What with "You Are My Strength" (one of the other three favorite new-to-me songs I just learned - Pastor Jonathan from Waypoint loved this song long before I even knew of it!), "Saviour King" and "Hosanna" all being on the album as well, this one is a pretty good album overall!
Anyway, here are the lyrics:
(The lines are broken kind of funny because they follow the phrasing in the song. Just in case those kinds of things bother you.)
I have never walked on water
Felt the waves beneath my feet but
At your Word Lord, I'll receive Your
Faith to walk on oceans deep
And I remember how You found me
In that very same place
All my failing surely would've drowned me
But You made a way
You are my freedom
Jesus you're the reason
I'm kneeling again at Your throne
Where would I be without You
Here in my life, here in my life?
You have said that all the heavens
Sing for joy at one who finds
The way to freedom, truth of Jesus
Bought from death into His life
And I remember how You saw me
Through the eyes of Your grace
And though the cost was Your beloved for me
Still you made a way!
You are my freedom
Jesus you're the reason
I'm kneeling again at Your throne
Where would I be without You
Here in my life, here in my life?
