Scrolling through old lists, reading old excerpts, clicking random songs, and yet I land up with a song that somehow places what I want to do into words. So forgotten, yet so... present?

Till I see You

The greatest love that anyone could ever know
That overcame the cross and grave to find my soul
And till I see You face to face and grace amazing takes me home
I'll trust in You

With all I am I'll live to see Your kingdom come
And in my heart I pray You'd let Your will be done
And till I see You face to face and grace amazing takes me home
I'll trust in You

I will live to love You
I will live to bring You praise
I will live a child in awe of You

You are a voice that called the universe to be
You are the whisper in my heart that speaks to me
And till I see You face to face and grace amazing takes me home
I'll trust in you

You alone are God of all
You alone are worthy Lord
And with all I am my soul will bless Your name

-Hillsong London

When was it that I started getting so caught up with myself, so caught up in the games? God, help me see again, help me get out of myself, help me 'kill the flesh' [for a lack of better expression] and help me love again, to place an end to the facades, an end to the acting, an end to all that I've done for the years, to all I've lived with.

You said ought not this daughter of Abraham be loosed! [Luke 13:16] I thank You, in the same manner, ought not I be loosed from it all! from playing the social games, from the mental, spiritual fatgiue, from all the devil tries to throw at me. No weapon formed against me shall prosper [Isaiah 54:17], in the same manner, no 'emotional bondage, fatigue' brought against me shall prosper. Bring me back to the consciousness of Your secret place, in the shadow of Your wings, atop the mercy seat, in Your tight embrace.

For this, You shed Your blood, that I may have it all. Thank You, that You gave it all, for me, specifically.
