rediscovering eden
Who am I, that the Lord of all the earth
Would care to know my name
Would care to feel my hurt
Who am I, that the bright and morning Star
Would choose to light the way
For my ever wandering heart
Not because of who I am
But because of what You've done
Not because of what I've done
But because of who You are
I am a flower quickly fading
Here today and gone tomorrow
A wave tossed in the ocean
A vapor in the wind
Still You hear me when I'm calling
Lord, You catch me when I'm falling
And You've told me who I am
I am Yours, I am Yours
Who Am I, that the eyes that see my sin
Would look on me with love
and watch me rise again
Who Am I, that the voice that calmed the sea
Would call out through the rain
And calm the storm in me
whom shall i fear
whom shall i fear
i am yours

Do not throw away your confidence; it will be richly rewarded. You need to perserve so that when you have done the will of God, you will receive what he has promised.
Hebrews 10:35-36
Corrinne May is a good songwriter. I bought her CD the other day at gramaphone and i was so struck by the song, "Safe in a Crazy World" that's the title of her album as well. Amazing. I thought that the song was well written not because it was filled with the lovely dovey, all the "I love you my dear and you are so beautiful" phrases but it spoke intimately of her relationship with her special soomeone whom i believe was very much dedicated to her creator, God. It speaks so much of how we struggle sometimes in life, finding answers, going ahead with life but at the end of it all when we hurt ourselves, when we are crushed, the answer is right there waiting. I was very reminded of the love the Father had for me. How He kept and is still keeping me safe in this crazy world. Thank you Lord Jesus for watching over my every step.
Safe in a Crazy WorldI try to smile my tears away I try to keep my cool Oh but one more door gets in my way I feel like such a foolTrampled and bitter My heart just wants to bleed and stopBelieving in meIt feels like nothing is for certain and that nothing comes for freeWhen they're lowering the curtain to the Theatre of my dreamsI stumble and i crumble and I'mSinking to my knees but youYou cradle meChorus(C):You keep me flying You keep me smiling You keep me safe in a crazy worldYou understand me Embrace my fragility You keep me safe in a crazy worldAnd in your arms I find the strength to believe in me againNoise keeps chasing me No matter where I goOh and life likes pretending that it's On a TV show When it's hard to tell what's real From what the world just wants to preach You are the voice I seekChorus'cause when I'm wrapped up in your armsNothing else can touch meWhat a wonderful way to rechargeI feel like I can breathe againChorus
