Am D G
ALL MY LIFE IS KNOWING HIM


MY LIFE CANNOT BE FOUND ON EARTH

IT’S HIDDEN WITH THE LAMB ON HIGH

BEHIND THE VEIL OF HEAVENS GLORY

A HOPE FOR WHICH MY SAVIOR DIED

THAT I MIGHT NOW PROCLAIM HIS STORY

AND PRAISE THE SPLENDOR OF HIS GRACE

THEN I’LL HAVE WEALTH BEYOND ALL MEASURE

WHEN I SEE HIM FACE TO FACE

Knowing him (CHORUS)


COME WITH ME AND DRINK THE WATER

TASTE AND SEE HOW GOOD GOD IS

EAT THE BREAD THAT’S COME FROM HEAVEN

THE BREAD THAT JESUS BROKE FOR YOU

COME IT’S FREE FOR THE ASKING

COME O WEARY COME O LAME

COME THE SEASON OF YOUR SEARCHING

BEGINS AND ENDS IN KNOWING HIM

Knowing him 2x

A Life Of Lyrics: The very best things.#links

The very best things.


The most wonderful times in life are unexpected. They can not be planned or orchestrated. To enjoy them, one must find a moment and lose control, relinquish authority, and admit one's need. It is often that I begin to see God's love for us in a new way when doing the strangest things, like; watching an animated film, mowing grass or even enjoying water hit my face as I shower off the days dirt and grime. I think that deep inside we are such simple creatures. Creatures that were made to find the most extreme joy in basking in the glory of He who is greater than us. There is no doubt that we all seek to find unidentifiable fulfillment by the things that we accomplish. We try to make ourselves bigger and better than we need to be. We are afraid to just breath and be who God made us. I've been thinking, (my wife says this is dangerous activity for me), thinking about the fact that Jesus said that he hides the wisdom and riches of his kingdom from the wise and intelligent and chooses to reveal them to babes (the poor, and the simple). So opposite of what I have always done. To pursue wealth and knowledge was more than a personal need, it was a responsibility. Drilled into me as a child, reinforced as a new christian, and confirmed throughout my adult life. And the most interesting thing is, I am still convinced of that education and productivity are two of God's great gifts to us. So I'm pondering. Why does our creator choose to invade our lives apart from accomplishment and knowledge. I have ideas, but I think it best to let you think on these things.

Kingdom Heart

Take it straight from the heart

All the things that are keeping me from you

I don't want to hold on to anything but the truth

Take me out of the dark

Lift me high on the Rock Of Ages

I don't want to be lead by anything but the light

When You shake
Things that are
I want nothing left
But a Kingdom heart

When You look at me

I can see your eyes are a flame of fire

But what they behold

Is the blood of the Lamb

Lord I long to be free

From the things that are keeping me from you

Crush this earthly veil, reveal the kingdom heart

When You shake
Things that are
I want nothing left
But a kingdom heart
When You shake
Things that are
I want nothing left
But a kingdom heart
