i'm forever Yours - planetshakers

i've not been posting much now.. haiz... the pressure for medical school is huge... *hikz* but if it's my calling, i know i can do it...

anyways, i have quite a lot of devotions since i last updated the blog. but for now, there's a song that is very very powerful to me. it's called, "i'm forever Yours". it has 2 essence even just from the title. firstly, of course, surrender. but if so, the title, "i'm Yours" is already enough. it could be because planetshakers must match the lyrics and the tune, but i believe that there are much more than that.

the second essence of the title is "forever". wholly surrender. eternally. the past, the present and the future. forever.

the lyrics itself are very powerful. it talks about how much we should love Him, how much He deserves. and at the second verse, second line, i was quite lost at first. but when i meditate upon it, i get what it means, and it's really very good.

last time, goats are sacrificed to atone for the sins of people. and in one life of a person, there could be hundreds or even thousands of atonement! but now, we don't use sacrifices of lambs anymore. the Lamb of God has sacrificed Himself. sacrifices are useless now. but the greatest thing we can give is our obedience to His Word.

we can sacrifice ourselves, but what's the use? like the sacrifices for offerings, we became useless. we must be a living sacrifice - one who speaks of God's truth, ones who obey Him. we listen to God's Word and we obey. that way, not only we will die for God, but we also live for God. that's greater than just dying for God.

anyways, here's the lyrics. the cd album is "pick it up". if you get a hold of it, you're very blessed. the songs in it are very powerful. i don't like 3 of the songs though (have to admit). i love their worships though. God bless you planetshakers! =)

I'm Forever Yours

By: Planetshakers

I give my all to You
Send me and I will come for You
To the ends of the earth
I'll follow after You
I want the world to know
Your love endures forever

Tell me and I'll obey
This is far greater than sacrifice
Trusting You and not myself
Will always lead to blessing
Lord, have Your way in me
Not my will, Yours be done

Here I stand within Your presence
Longing for Your touch
A thousand days cannot compare to one day in Your court
Hold me now
And never ever let me go
My Jesus
My precious Savior
I'm forever Yours

And I will worship You forever
I will worship You

-----

have a great time worshiping our Lord, the One who is worthy of our all!

take these broken wings. and learn to fly again. and learn to live so free.
