So, Cara and I arrived at Lipscomb University today around 6:00 ready to be trained. We checked in, had a quick dinner, and then made our way to the auditorium where we would begin our first praise and worship session of the ten days. It was great! I love nothing more than singing with so many other Christians who are also singing their heart out to God and meaning every word of it. It's so easy to get caught up in the routine of things and not even think about what you are saying. I'm really thankful for this time to be able to get away from the every day things to just spend time focusing on God. There are many songs that really touched my heart tonight, but I will share with you the one that meant the most. Here are the lyrics:
It's called "How Deep the Father's Love for Us"
How deep the Father's love for us
How vast beyond all measure
That He should give His only Son
To make a wretch His treasure
How great the pain of searing loss
The Father turns His face away
As wounds which mar the Chosen One
Bring many sons to glory
Behold the man upon a cross
My sin upon His shoulders
Ashamed I hear my mocking voice
Call out among the scoffers
It was my sin that held Him there
Until it was accomplished
His dying breath has brought me life
I know that it is finished
I will nost boast in anything
No gifts, no power, no wisdom
But I will boast in Jesus Christ
His death and resurrection
Why should I gain from His reward
I cannot give an answer
But this I know with all my heart
His wounds have paid my ransom
