Stay

Sunday, August 31, 2008

Whenever I listen to music, the first thing my ears go to is the actual tune. I’m not much of a lyrics person much less words in general. As I’m going through a huge time of brokenness and change in my life, there is one song that pretty much says it all in the lyrics. Most of you probably know this song. 

Hope is the call
That is ringing in my soul
But I can’t pretend that I see
Much light in front of me

I wait to find You here
Hope is thrown away
I can’t give up
I’ll wait to see You here
I have gone astray
But You will always stay beside me
And Your rescue comes to find me
And You will always stay

Love is the seed
That is buries underneath
The soil of the pain and of grief
But it grows into the tree
That I’ll climb to see You here

Hope is thrown away
I can;t give up
I’ll wait to see You here
I have gone astray
But You will always stay beside me
And Your path is straight before me
You will always stay
You will always stay

Pride is the friend
Who betrays me in the end
Stealing joy as it goes
Leaves me longing for a home

I’ll wait to find You here
Though I’m thrown away
I can’t give up
I’ll wait to see You here
I have gone astray
And I believe I’ll sing until You’re here
Though I’m lost and afraid
I can’t give up
I wait to find You here
I have gone astray

You will always stay beside me
And Your sun will rise above me
And Your light will shine upon me
And Your skies are clear above me
And You will always stay
You will always stay
–Robbie Seay

 
I give up on myself very easily, but I have found out how vital it is not to give up. I know this is simple, but sometimes it’s good to hear things again and to REALLY understand what they mean. So don’t give up on yourself because He still loves us. Oh how He loves us.
