i was looking through deborah's (my housemate) chord book while she was choosing songs for summer retreat, and as we were flipping through i saw many many songs, some old ones, which i loved and havent heard for in a long time, old new songs which we sang at chapel in secondary school, children's songs which we sang in chapel at primary school, songs we hear in church now. anyway, one of the songs that i came across had very beautful lyrics.
One thing i ask, one thing i seek
That i may dwell in Your house, O Lord
All of my days, all of my life
That i may see You Lord
Hear me O Lord, hear me when i cry
Lord do not hide Your face from me
You have been my strength
You have been my shield
And You
will lift me up
One Thing I Ask - Vineyardi dont really know how this song goes, but the lyrics expresses some of my feelings now. about how i've gotten so dry in my walk with God. but i trust that God will lift me up like He did before. and He will lift me up into His loving arms, and i can find comfort in Him. i'm very thankful for summer retreat which starts tmr evening after o-day at uni. its rather timely to realign and focus on my goals for this new year. i pray that in this new semester, this new start and change in school, i will be a vessel that God can use, someone who dares to be different and set apart from the rest, a follower and disciple of Christ, and be someone full of passion to serve in His ministry in school.
i worship You Almighty God,
There is none like You
I worship You O Prince of Peace,
That is what i long to do
a shout of praise.
