God's Gift to Me

God's present to me!

I am turning 36 tomorrow? Which is crazy! I really do not feel 36, let alone 35 today! But anyhow I think God gave me an early birthday present. I have listened to these two songs like forever, because they are some of my all time favorites, but God reminded me today that He made me and has given me these years of my life to enjoy, to love, and to honor! What a blessing! We pray with the kids each night and their prayers go something like this: "Thank you God for this day, thank you for Mommy, Daddy, Eli, and Maggie Beth and thank you for creating me, Hezekiah." Maybe I need to embrace that myself and listen to those words and thank God for creating me, Gretchen! I think too often I forget to praise God for His grace and the vessel He has given me to honor Him.  Anyhow, if you have never heard these beautiful songs find them on I-tunes or go and just buy the whole CD, because the rest of their songs are just awesome! Enjoy and read the lyrics like they are God's present to you!

*Sacred Delight*

Did you smile when you made the moon and gave the sky its color?

Did creation dance in rhythm too to your song of life I wonder?

Did the angels know you knew my name before I existed?

Did you tell them out of all you made why you gave me your image?

Is it true I'm your heartbeat, how you love me more than anything?

What sacred delight

What infinite wonder, that I'm precious in your sight,

You love me like no other, no other, Ohhh sacred delight.

Did you think of me the day you died that I would dare intend this?

Did you know one day I would come to you in search of your forgiveness?

Is it true I'm your heartbeat, that you chose to die than to live
without me?

What sacred delight

What infinite wonder, that I'm precious in your sight.

You love me like no other, no other, Ohhh sacred delight.

*Ancient of Days*

Before there was time there were visions in Your mind.

There was death and the fall of man kind

There was life and salvations design

Before there were days there were nights that could not see your face

But the night could not keep me from grace

You came and you took my place

So I cried Holy, Holy begotten son of God, Ancient of Days

I cried Holy, Holy begotten son of God, I sing of your praises

Of the one who saved me and the promises He made

Before there was time He counted the hairs on my head

He knew all the words that I said

He purchased me back from the dead

Before I was made He searched me and knew my ways

He numbered all of my days

He shed forth the steps that I would take

So I cried Holy, Holy begotten son of God, Ancient of Days

I cried Holy, Holy begotten son of God, I sign of your praises

Of the one who saved me and the promises He made

You saved me! You raised me! You saved me! You pulled me from the grave!

So I cried Holy, Holy begotten Son of God, Ancient of Days

I cried Holy, Holy begotten Son of God, I sign of your praises

Of the one who saved me and the promises He made

Before there was time!
