Because You Are

I love the latest Point of Grace cd, the lyrics and music speak to me for so many reasons. The lyrics I included below is such a tribute to my Maker and Father and really does tell of His sacrifice and position. Thankfully, it also speaks to how I am clean before Him because of all He has done. I am so grateful, and humbled by God reaching down and making a way for me to belong to Him. I don't know how else to say it!


Because You Are
Infinite deity, humbly and famed
In an immortal, unbreakable body you came
To rescue our souls from the depths they were in
Because of, in spite of
To cover my sin

Master and Servant, together in one
Come to redeem what our hearts had undone
Saviors, of all come together as kin
Because of, in spite of
To cover my sin


Holy, Unbreakable infinite God
Ever unchanging in all that you are
Light of the world and the sun and the stars
You are I AM
And I am because you are

Shepherd and Pastor to wandering Sheep
Gave up his life so our own we could keep
Soldier in battle for souls He might win
Because of, in spite of
To cover my sin

Holy, Unbreakable infinite God
Ever unchanging in all that you are
Light of the world and the sun and the stars
You are I AM
And I am because you are

Humbly forsaking His heavenly seat
Beaten, bloodied and washing my feet
Opened our eyes to what love really means
The blood on my hands is what washes me clean

Holy, Unbreakable infinite God
Ever unchanging in all that you are
Light of the world and the sun and the stars
You are I AM
And I am because you are
