God with us!
Video: MercyMe - God With Us
Who are we
That You would be mindful of us
What do You see
That's worth looking our way
We are free
In ways that we never should be
Sweet release
From the grip of these chains
Like hinges straining from the weight
My heart no longer can keep from singing
All that is within me cries
For You alone be glorified
Emmanuel
God with us
My heart sings a brand new song
The debt is paid these chains are gone
Emmanuel
God with us
Lord You know
Our hearts don't deserve Your glory
Still You show
A love we cannot afford
If you realize your spiritual condition then it will be mind boggling to you that God would want to be Immanuel (God with us). We walk away from him and go our own way just like God's children in the Old Testament did. Yet he still wants to have a relationship and spend time with us. (Isaiah 53:6, Psalm 16:11)
Thank you Lord for wanting to have a relationship with me and going so far over the top to make it available to me. Without you my life would have no meaning.
