from the inside out

A thousand times I've failed
Still your mercy remains
And should I stumble again
Still I'm caught in your grace

Everlasting, Your light will shine when all else fades
Never ending, Your glory goes beyond all fame

My heart and my soul, Lord I give you control
Consume me from the inside out Lord
Let justice and praise become my embrace
To love You from the inside out

Your will above all else, my purpose remains
The art of losing myself in bringing You praise
Everlasting, Your light will shine when all else fades
Never ending, Your glory goes beyond all fame

My heart and my soul, Lord I give you control
Consume me from the inside out Lord
Let justice and praise become my embrace
To love You from the inside out

Chorus 2x
Everlasting, Your light will shine when all else fades
Never ending, Your glory goes beyond all fame
And the cry of my heart is to bring You praise
From the inside out Lord, my soul cries out
(FROM THE INSIDE OUT by HILLSONG)

Haha I know lately you been wondering why lately my post been songs songs songs..oh well..just because through them, I feel I use it to express what I m feeling or want to share.

I sung this song on Saturday Night service. When I was choosing the songs for the week, my heart was convicted to sing this song. It always speaks to me about pure desire to worship God, that hungry for Him.

I like how the two verses were composed. We humans are weak yet God's mercy and grace never fails..that thought always humble my heart to think of His love for us. In responce, you can only just worship and give thanks for what He has done for our lives.

Even myself, sometimes I feel there is so much imperfection in me(refer to first verse) but still it's amazing to think that God loves me and wants to use me. That thought always makes me amazed(refer to 2nd verse).

I remembered once Pastor shared with me about understanding what is inside out. It is like a flower..for the flower to give out its smell, it must come from the inside out. If the flower got its smell from an outside source, it wont last long or even smell as good as the first flower I mentioned earlier.

It's easy to be passionate but where the passion comes from? Something to think about as we set our hearts right before God. This song also reminded me on humbleness before God.
