The words of this song go through my mind frequently. There they were this morning so I thought I would share them. Rich Mullins was very instrumental in my early Christian walk. I am so very affected by music and their lyrics. He always wrote straight to the heart and straight from scripture. God took him way to early if you ask me.
My favorite line from the song is " I'd rather fight You for something
I don't really want
Than to take what You give that I need "That is so true of me. I try and remember this and let go and let God give what I need instead of what I want.
Anyone out there have a favorite Rich Mullins song?
Hold Me Jesus
Well, sometimes my life
Just don't make sense at all
When the mountains look so big
And my faith just seems so small
CHORUS:
So hold me Jesus, 'cause I'm shaking like a leaf
You have been King of my glory
Won't You be my Prince of Peace
And I wake up in the night and feel the dark
It's so hot inside my soul
I swear there must be blisters on my heart
CHORUS
Surrender don't come natural to me
I'd rather fight You for something
I don't really want
Than to take what You give that I need
And I've beat my head against so many walls
Now I'm falling down, I'm falling on my knees
And this Salvation Army band
Is playing this hymn
And Your grace rings out so deep
It makes my resistance seem so thin
CHORUS
You have been King of my glory
Won't You be my Prince of Peace
