Sunday Songs #1

Some other blogs, etc., I follow have their tradition of "Sunday Sweets" or "Sunday Secrets" or something regular and alliterative like that.  So being rather alliterative myself, I thought I would do Sunday Songs, posting songs that have been on my mind this week or that I just found and like or that have lyrics that really speak to me at the moment.

The song for this week is "The Hurt and the Healer" by MercyMe.

Why?
The question that is never far away
But healing doesn't come from the explained
Jesus please don't let this go in vain
You're all I have
All that remains

So here I am
What's left of me
Where glory meets my suffering

I'm alive
Even though a part of me has died
You take my heart and breathe it back to life
I fall into your arms open wide
When the hurt and the healer collide

Breathe
Sometimes I feel it's all that I can do
Pain so deep that I can hardly move
Just keep my eyes completely fixed on You
Lord take hold and pull me through

So here I am
What's left of me
Where glory meets my suffering

I'm alive
Even though a part of me has died
You take my heart and breathe it back to life
I fall into your arms open wide
When the hurt and the healer collide

It's the moment when humanity
Is overcome by majesty
When grace is ushered in for good
And all our scars are understood
When mercy takes its rightful place
And all these questions fade away
When out of weakness we must bow
And hear You say "It's over now"

I'm alive
Even though a part of me has died
You take my heart and breathe it back to life
I fall into your arms open wide
When the hurt and the healer collide

Jesus come and break my fear
Awake my heart and take my tears
Find Your glory even here
When the hurt and the healer collide



There is not a word of this song that I don't feel to the fullest extent right now.
Also, I just like MercyMe.
Any songs that are your favorites at the moment?

The other song for the day is Jupiter by Holst, since Santa Clara Vanguard has it in their show.  Automatic first place in my mind.
