By Your Side

It's been awhile since I've felt passionate about something enough to make the time to write. I am so humbled by the love and grace and mercy of God. He is so much bigger than our circumstances.

Mercy is not getting what I deserve.
Grace is giving me what I don't deserve.

That is my God.
I hear this song and it brings me to tears EVERY time.
My Jesus loves me, and will never forsake me.
And it's the same for you.

Why are you striving these days
Why are you trying to earn grace
Why are you crying
Let me lift up your face
Just don't turn away
Why are you looking for love
Why are you still searching as if I'm not enough
To where will you go child
Tell me where will you run
To where will you run
And I'll be by your side
Wherever you fall
In the dead of night
Whenever you call
And please don't fight
These hands that are holding you
My hands are holding you
Look at these hands and my side
They swallowed the grave on that night
When I drank the world's sin
So I could carry you in
And give you life
I want to give you life

Cause I, I love you
I want you to know
That I, I love you
I'll never let you go

He is by your side.
The lover of my soul.
And yours.
Let Him love you.

Happy Valentines Day.
