Sunday, our worship leader, introduced a song that was new to me....I LOVE it...for many reasons.
It is LOWEST PLACES by Laura Hackett
You said there be would be joy in the laying down
You said there would be joy in the letting go
You said there would be joy in the giving of my life
And now I see
Your river it rushes to the lowest place
Your river it rushes to the lowest place
Your river it rushes to the lowest place
Your river it rushes
Come and rush over me
Come and rush over me
Come and rush over me
Let the river flow
I bow down
I get low
I open up my heart to receive your love
I gotta get to the wells of joy
I have to dig for the wells of joy
I gotta get to the wells of joy
I gotta get lower, lower
Your river it rushes to the lowest place
Your river it rushes to the lowest place
Your river it rushes to the lowest place
Your river it rushes
You said there would be joy in the letting go
You said there would be joy in the giving of my life
And now I see
Your river it rushes to the lowest place
Your river it rushes to the lowest place
Your river it rushes to the lowest place
Your river it rushes
Come and rush over me
Come and rush over me
Come and rush over me
Let the river flow
I bow down
I get low
I open up my heart to receive your love
I gotta get to the wells of joy
I have to dig for the wells of joy
I gotta get to the wells of joy
I gotta get lower, lower
Your river it rushes to the lowest place
Your river it rushes to the lowest place
Your river it rushes to the lowest place
Your river it rushes
You really need to listen to it on You tube to really appreciate it.
I also want to thank my wonderful husband so much for getting the lyrics on here. It took him awhile, but he was committed to doing it:)
When we truly surrender our lives...whatever He asks, whatever the cost, then we will experience true joy. I have experienced this myself. When I truly surrended my heart to what God wanted, even moving to a foreign country, it is then that I experienced Joy and Peace like I have never experienced before.
