Light and Life

Check this song out (link after this paragraph). The lyrics at the bottom. God is showing me freedom within obedience to the 10th commandment when I surrender. However, that commandment is terribly difficult for me to obey. And I am so thankful that he is showing me unending grace and forgiveness, as well. That is what this song is about. It's about the One who saves and it's a beautiful reminder that we do not find freedom, faith, or obedience outside of the One who saves. For this, I am so grateful.

This song beautifully illustrates the truth that we were once in darkness. It carries the full sense of "BUT" so as to show that we are longer in darkness.

"Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness, but the darkness cannot over come it." (John 1)

Grace is our hope and our light... and this is the verdict: Light has come into the world.

Come join the song, lift your voice
As heaven and earth give praise
Fall to your knees, at the feet
Of the Son of The One True God
Turn from old ways, lift your eyes
For the kingdom of God is here
Open your heart, offer all
For Jesus Christ is here
Oh now

We have found our hope
We have found our peace
We have found our rest
In the One who Loves
He will light the way
He will lead us home
As we offer all
To the One who saves us

Call on the Name, that is hope
Jesus the Son of God
Lord over all, He is good
And His mercy endures
Always

His love endures
Forever His love endures
Forever His love endures
Forever and ever
