At The Cross (Love Ran Red) - Chris Tomlin
In faith we stand expectant
Of miracles within your presence,
Beyond the shadow of your wings
We're filled with your love's essence.
In awe we wait hearts
Wide open expectant
In wonder we're drawn
Our hearts and souls reborn.
The future is a mystery
The past is a part of us,
With each step we take
Unveiling life's story.
The holy scriptures
Are written in blood,
Our fear of the Lord
Is like a cleansing flood.
In reverent fear we
Surrender all to Holy Lord,
In His presence fear transforms
Into worship and adoration.
Let us rejoice and be glad
To the One who gave His life
Every step is intentional,
Expectant of heaven's blessings.
Put a smile on your face
Expectant hearts we lift,
Living each day with purpose
Intentional in every breath.
Philippians 3:13-14 (NIV) - “Brothers and sisters, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.”
2 Chronicles 15:7 (NIV) - “But as for you, be strong and do not give up, for your work will be rewarded.”
Habakkuk 2:2-3 (NIV) - “Then the Lord replied: ‘Write down the revelation and make it plain on tablets so that a herald may run with it. For the revelation awaits an appointed time; it speaks of the end and will not prove false. Though it linger, wait for it; it will certainly come and will not delay.’”
Like the Philippian's scripture quote. Another good one my friend.
I love that Habakkuk verse! What a hopeful poem. Thank you for sharing it and the photos are so peaceful.
