Who am I, that You would care for me?
Lord I come into Your holy place
Stand in awe, of Your cleansing grace
Who am I, that You would care for me?
I glorify the One who died for me
Glorified, glorified
Let Your name be lifted up and glorified
Let the earth tremble at Your name
Let Your name be lifted up and glorified
Into Your hands, I commit my life
Day by day, as a living sacrifice
Who am I, that You would care for me?
I glorify the One who died for me
~ Parachute Band, Glorified
Sometimes I wish that I could write as beautiful the lyrics as these. Worship songs, to my understanding, really aren't about making you feel great. What makes it great is their capacity to show God's glory and to reveal to You that place where He is. I was playing this song (yes, just me and my guitar again, love those intimate moments with my guitar and God) during my quiet time and it struck me that I really wanted to sing those words as a commitment to God. "Into Your hands, I commit my life / Day by day, as a living sacrifice."
During MLM today, Joyce was presenting, and she showed this picture on one of the slides:
Now that after MLM I thought of this song Glorified...
Dear Lord, may 31,536,000 seconds of every year of my life from now on be lived out for Your glory.
Stand in awe, of Your cleansing grace
