All I Have to Give


Create in me a clean heart, a clean heart
For I have turned my face from You
Teach us of Your ways oh God, oh God
For we have turned away from You
Lord have mercy

We will run to you, we will run to you
Turning from our sin we return to You
Father heal your world, make all things new
Make all things new

Your love and mercy build and shape us
Break us and recreate us now
Lord have mercy

Oh, bring us back to you

-- Gungor

There's a love, forgetting my failures.
There's a hope, that's setting me free.
There's a light, defeating my darkness.

And there's redemption calling,
And causing all to sing

[Chorus]
Father will You come and open up our eyes.
Fill us with Your love, renew us with Your life.
Consume us with Your Majesty, consume of with your majesty
Yeah...


There's a peace, that's calming my waters.
There's a joy, that's setting me free.
He's the light defeating my darkness.

And there's redemption calling,
And causing all to sing

--Unhindered

All I have to offer God are my filthy rags and my broken heart and He offers me complete forgiveness. He offers me Jesus. Seriously like that is what we have to offer God -- our Good deeds don't impress Him, those are just sacrifices. I am finally coming to the realization that He can do something with a broken heart, a sinful person. He offers grace, love, forgiveness. He offers His Son once and for all. This is the only way I could ever know how to love Him back. He does it all. I'm just learning this in some painful ways. God is so good though...He really is. He's so good. Hmmm
