Lord, take me deeper

I don't often listen to music while I'm working. I'm one of those people that needs relative silence (I say 'relative' coz the library, for example, is often TOO quiet for me. I cna't handle the pressure of not being able to talk!).

Anyway, last night I was shattered and couldn't concentrate any more but still needed to do some work, so started typing some stuff up. Didn't take that much brain power so put a CD on in the background...Helen leant it to me - Songs for the Cross Centred Life. It's great!

And this song just made me stop in my tracks and praise God.

The Glories of Calvary - Steve and Vikki Cook

Lord, You're calling me to come

and behold the wondrous cross.

To explore the depths of grace

that came to me at such a cost.

Where Your boundless love

conquered my boundless sin,

and mercy's arms were opened wide.

My heart is filled with a thousand songs,

proclaiming the glories of Calvary.

With every breath, Lord how I long

to sing of Jesus who died for me.

Lord, take me deeper

into the glories of Calvary.

Sinners find eternal joy

in the triumph of Your wounds.

By our Saviour's crimson flow,

holy wrath has been removed.

And Your saints below

join with Your saints above,

rejoicing in the Risen Lamb.
