These last two posts…these songs seriously meet my heart’s place for Ethiopia…every time I sing them, my eyes close, and all I can see, hear, feel, pray for, and imagine is the work God is doing in many hearts.  

I have built with my hands all the walls that hold me in,
I have wandered my way in the desert.
I have struggled against all the blessings you have sent,
and I am back to the place of surrender.

Pre-Chorus:
Lord You meet me here in my darkest hour
And You stirred my heart with Your love

Chorus:
Forever, I am changed by mercy
Forever my heart is alive
Forever, I am Yours my Savior
Forever my hope is Christ

Verse 2:
Tears are sweet as they fall, mercy rushes through my soul
Bowing low as you wash me with healing.
Lord, you’ve sealed me with grace
Life eternally sustained, by the hope in my soul You’re revealing

Bridge:
The power of sin is broken I have been set free
For I have died and Jesus is alive in me
