When there is no soul-searching, is the soul still there?
from The Sacredness of Questioning Everything by David Dark

We'll build new traditions in place of the old
'Cause life without revision will silence our souls

Variation on Hillsong Forever Reign

You are good. There is nothing good in me.
You are love on display for all to see.
You are light when the darkness closes in.
You are hope. You are hope.
You have covered all my sin.

You are peace when my fear is crippling.
You are peace when my pride is crippling.
You are peace when my doubt is crippling.
You are peace when my stress is crippling.
You are peace when I am crippling myself.

You are true even in my wandering.
You are joy. You're the reason that I sing
You are life. You are life.

In You death has lost its sting

Oh, I’m running to Your arms.
I’m running to Your arms.
The riches of Your love will always be enough
Nothing compares to Your embrace.
Light of the W
orld, forever reign.

You are more than my words will ever say.
"You are Lord, You are Lord," all creation will proclaim.
You are here. In Your presence I'm made whole.
You are God, You are God
Of all else I'm letting go


Oh, I’m running to Your arms.
I’m running to Your arms.
The riches of Your love will always be enough
Nothing compares to Your embrace.
Light of the W
orld, forever reign.

My heart will sing 
no other Name
Jesus, Jesus.

Oh, I’m running to Your arms.
I’m running to Your arms.
The riches of Your love will always be enough
Nothing compares to Your embrace.
Light of the W
orld, forever reign.

  1. By far, my favorite song right now and playing on loop while I work! So many phrases are repeated in my mind, some that I already feel and know and some I long to be true in my life. Thanks for sharing these words!
