whatever thing

whatever thing that i have carried in this place
that will keep me from You, i will lay it at Your feet
whatever burden i have carried for so long
that will keep me from seeing You, i will lay it down right now

i need to hear You speak to me
i want to feel You in this place
You long to take me in Your arms of love
so take me in Your arms of love

all of the things that are cluttering my mind
i will push them far from You, listen to Your voice
all of the pain that i am carrying inside
i will hand it to You, You will take it, set me free
i will fly

i need to hear You speak to me
i want to feel You in this place
You long to take me in Your arms of love
so take me in Your arms of love
i need to hear You speak to me
i want to feel You in this place
You long to take me in Your arms of love
so take me in Your arms of love
so take me in Your arms of love

heard this today. it was like my heart was crying from cary-anne's ipod. amidst the rain and the cold. i'm so glad other people can articulate what i cannot. i frustrate myself at how easily i allow things, people, situations, whatever thing, get in the way of my relationship with Christ. so much that i cannot see Him or understand or be at peace with my worth in Him. and i long to be wrapped in the arms of love. i wish i could physically feel His arms of love around me. maybe i am lonely. i'm ready to fly. set free to fly. ah, the freedom of flying combined with the furious love of the God of the universe. captive to a merciful and gracious God, yet free to fly.
