This is a song by Casting Crowns that has captured me since I have been here. If I had to sum up what God has shown me in the past three months, it would be his mercy. This song helps me to recognize just how merciful God is and has been, even though the past few years of my life have at times seemed to be unbarable. I felt led to share some of the experiences and thoughts I have had, but couldn´t put it into words. Maybe the lyrics will provide the message that God wants to get out.
Who Am I
That the Lord of all the Earth
Would care to know my name?
Would care to feel my hurt?
Who Am I
That the bright and morning star
Would choose to light the way
For my ever wandering heart?
Not because of who I am
But because of what you’ve done
Not because of what I’ve done
But because of who you are
I am a flower quickly fading
Here today and gone tomorrow
A wave tossed in the ocean
A vapor in the wind
Still you hear me when I’m calling
You catch me when I’m falling
And You’ve told me who I am
I am yours
I am yours
Who am I
That the eyes that see my sin
Would look on me with love
And watch me rise again?
Who am I
That the voice that calmed the sea
Would call out through the rain
And calm the storm in me?
Not because of who I am
But because of what you’ve done
Not because of what I’ve done
But because of who you are
I am a flower quickly fading
Here today and gone tomorrow
A wave tossed in the ocean
A vapor in the wind
Still you hear me when I’m calling
Lord, You catch me when I’m falling
And You’ve told me who I am
I am yours
I am yours
Whom shall I fear?
Whom shall I fear?
Because I am yours.
