Who Am I

Great news! I wrote a song!

Obviously I have written some little choruses and verses here and there, but this is the first full song! Thursday afternoon I was reading over some verses and things in my prayer journal. There was a verse from Psalm 81 that just resonated with me, and I was thinking how great it would be to music. So I sat down at my piano with my prayer journal and just started playing chords and singing the verse and the words that the Lord had given me earlier in the week.

The Holy Spirit truly fell in my living room that day! It was such a sweet time with the Lord that I will never forget. A lifetime memory. I was so touched and moved that I called and told my best friend, my husband, and my pastor about the experience.

When I told my pastor he said, "Words and chords?" and I said "Yes..."

"Good, bring it tonight, I want to hear the whole band play it."

...my pastor has a great way of not just kicking you out of the nest but actually catapulting you off into the sunset. But I love him for it.

Out of Thursday afternoon and night came the 601's first worship song that truly has our heart written all over it.

I'll have to figure out a way to get a recording on here but here are the lyrics:

Who Am I

V1: I hear a voice, a whisper from the One
I never thought would speak to me
God, who am I, that you even choose to know me
You sent Your son to die for me

C: Praise flows from my heart ////

V2: You came to me, in the cool of the day
You came to me and showed me the way
You came to me, in the midst of where I stood
You sent Your son to die for me

C: Praise flows from my heart ////

BR: I know that I'm accepted
I know that I am Yours
I know that I'm forgiven
Because the cross You bore
