What are my lips singing?


One thing discussed in last nite's study was about the words we sing. Do we really feel and understand the words being sung when we are in praise and worship? Or do they just come out with no feeling and no truth behind them? Do we mean it??? I want to become that person that thinks about what Im singing and to pray that the words become true in me. Some songs have affected me and I feel them every time I sing them. But some songs just come out. I dont really hear them. I dont feel them. I want that to change...I am making it a goal to think about every word of every song that comes off my lips to the Lord! I don't want them to be in vain.

With tear filled eyes I will lift up these words to the Lord today...because really-Who am I, that HE would be mindful of me???

God With Us – Mercy Me

Who are we, that You would be mindful of us?
What do You see, that's worth looking our way?
We are free, in ways that we never should be.
Sweet release, from the grip of these chains.
Like hinges straining from the weight, my heart no longer can keep from singing.

[chorus]
All that is within me cries.
For You alone be glorified Emmanuel, God with us.
My heart sings a brand new song.
The debt is paid these chains are gone.
Emmanuel, God with us.

Lord You know, our hearts don't deserve Your glory.
Still You show, a love we cannot afford.
Like hinges straining from the weight, my heart no longer can keep from singing.

[chorus]
All that is within me cries.
For You alone be glorified Emmanuel, God with us.
My heart sings a brand new song.
The debt is paid these chains are gone.
Emmanuel, God with us.

Such a tiny offering, compared to Calvary, nevertheless we lay it at your feet.
Such a tiny offering, compared to Calvary, nevertheless we lay this at your feet.

[chorus]
All that is within me cries.
For You alone be glorified Emmanuel, God with us.
My heart sings a brand new song.
My debt is paid these chains are gone.
Emmanuel, God with us.

Congratulations on starting your own blog. And what a wonderful title, The Outlet. I know you intended it to vent anger but God meant it for good and you have fulfilled His will. Good for you! Watch what you say about your father-in-law, cause he will be following your every post.
