[ti:Not Without Love (Benediction)] [ar:Jimmy Needham] [al:Not Without Love] [by:活在当下] [00:00.91]Jimmy Needham - Not Without Love (Benediction) [00:01.92] [00:02.13] 卜超 制作 [00:02.28] [00:02.47]I tried Lord [00:04.77]I tried Lord [00:07.85]I tried hard to be Your good little boy [00:10.55]Chin up, head high [00:12.14]All zeal and no joy [00:13.87]Thinking all my good deeds could please Jesus [00:16.39]Boy, was I wrong [00:19.31]Though I knew the right songs, [00:20.81]all my cymbals and gongs played the melodies wrong [00:23.39]And it wasn’t long ‘til I saw my disease [00:25.89]A life spent wanting to please [00:27.57]On hands and knees [00:28.60]To make right, to appease [00:29.80]God help me please [00:30.95]This can’t be Christianity, it can’t be [00:32.58]The whole thing’s like insanity [00:34.94]Where’s the rest of eternal security? [00:37.17]Where’s the hope of a [00:38.05]God big enough to cope with all my hang-ups and insecurities? [00:41.69]Certainly this isn’t breathing [00:43.31]My chest burning and heaving [00:45.09]It’s like my pulse is ceasing [00:47.23]Like my heart quits beating [00:55.10]Yet this I recall to mind and therefore I have hope: [01:02.27]You died, Lord [01:05.59]You died, Lord [01:09.30]Assuredly, like the coming of the dawn, the Father’s love song goes on [01:14.89]Drowning out my bitter songs [01:16.92]And breaking through walls and barriers [01:19.37]Christ swoops in, removes sin, picks up His bride and carries her [01:24.12]So I can sing in agreement with the King this thing: [01:27.58]There’s only one thing that pleases the Father [01:31.93]The God-man on the tree in the midst of the scoffers [01:36.14]Now I finally see that Christ is what Christ offers [01:41.06]And I’m finally free in the love of the Father [01:45.97]
