My Family
Hey :) I wrote this song over the last week, and I don't want it to be just an emotional song, but I was really trying to put words on how overwhelmed and thankful I am for Jesus and His People, His visible huggable Life-changing Ekklesia "against which the gates of Hell cannot prevail." Words can't do it justice, but I really wanted to tell you guys I am so thankful for what you've done for me even when I've been selfish and stupid so often... If it seems appropriate, I was hoping it could be passed on to the rest of my Family?

Mark 10:29-30 New King James Version (NKJV) So Jesus answered and said, "Assuredly, I say to you, there is no one who has left house or brothers or sisters or father or mother, or wife or children, or lands, for My sake and the Good News— who shall not receive a hundredfold now in this time— houses and brothers and sisters and mothers and children and lands, with persecutions— and in the age to come, eternal life."
I know words can't describe
All that You are to me
Thank you's just too shallow
To convey what's on my heart
But somehow
I want you to know
That I'll never forget
The gifts that exposed my heart
The tender love and precious tears
Shed on my behalf
The unseen protection
And unnoticed affection
I'm on my knees in awe
Undeserving and stubborn
But in spite of me
Never ending love and mercy
You're my Family
It's all that You promised
More than I could have dreamed
Nothing on earth could compare
With the love and grace that You bring
And I desperately want
You to know
That I'll never forget
The gifts that exposed my heart
The tender love and precious tears
Shed on my behalf
The unseen protection
And unnoticed affection
I'm on my knees in awe
Love is written on every
Beautiful face
What could I do
To deserve this gift
Undeserving and stubborn
But in spite of me
Never ending love and mercy
You're my Family
Overwhelming me, lifting me
Enthralling me, breaking me
Changing me, awakening me
Healing me, astounding me
Undeserving and stubborn
But in spite of me
Never ending love and mercy
You're my Family
