Divine Inspiration

The past few weeks, we've started a Wednesday night series @ church about Worship. It's really been a interesting class so far, I've really enjoyed it. This week, we were challenged to write lyrics as homework. I've always wanted to write a song, but have never been disciplined enough to sit down and do it. I decided I really wanted to challenge myself to do this homework and come up with something. I thought it was going to be a lot of work. Well yesterday, on my way to work, a song just came to me (along with the melody). I've never experienced anything like it before, totally divine inspiration. And all through work I had stuck in my head (I managed to write it out and finish it my head during work) and I woke up singing it this morning. So, at the risk of vulnerability, I'd like to share it. The title is 'FIND ME' :

When this world

falls apart around me

my only hope

is that You'll find me

Lord You know all my hopes and fears

Lord You know what I need from here

Thank you for the Truth when I have nowhere to run

Thank you for your Love when I feel so alone

Thank you for the Hope I thought had fell through my fingertips

In the midst of the storm

thank you Lord

for finding me.

Lord sometimes

I see dark days

and all I want is for you

to take it away

But you know all my hopes and fears

and you know what I need from here

Thank you for the Truth when I have nowhere to run

Thank you for your Love when I feel so alone

Thank you for the Hope I thought had fell through my fingertips

In the midst of the storm

thank you Lord

for finding me.

When the rain falls down around me I think I've lost my way

When lightning strikes and thunders roar I fall to pray

And you find me...

Thank you for the Truth when I have nowhere to run

Thank you for your Love when I feel so alone

Thank you for the Hope I thought had fell through my fingertips

In the midst of the storm

Thank you Lord

For finding me.

Maybe soon, I'll record it so you can hear the melody.
