Sweetly Broken - Jeremy Riddle
I chose this as my blog name due to many reasons. Something God has been teaching me lately is the extent of my depravity. Every time he teaches me about my true fallen, sinful condition, it brings me hope and comfort. I run to him all the more. It feels good to be broken, to be at your last resort and your utter dependence on Him shines through. The more I am sweetly broken, the more I wholly surrender to Him. More to come . . .
by Jeremy Riddle From the album Sweetly Broken
To the cross I look, to the cross I cling
Of its suffering I do drink
Of its work I do singFor on it my Savior both bruised and crushed
Showed that God is love
And God is justChorus:
At the cross You beckon me
You draw me gently to my knees, and I am
Lost for words, so lost in love,
I’m sweetly broken, wholly surrenderedWhat a priceless gift, undeserved life
Have I been given
Through Christ crucifiedYou’ve called me out of death
You’ve called me into life
And I was under Your wrath
Now through the cross I’m reconciledChorus:
In awe of the cross I must confess
How wondrous Your redeeming love and
How great is Your faithfulness(2x’s)
Chorus

Hey Matt! I love these lyrics! I am going to check into hearing them now ... when the girls are fed, and after we've gone grocery shopping :) Glad to see you're blogging now. I've been enjoying the pics of the kiddos that Sarah sends. Hope you're enjoying the Wichita area, and loving your new job! Talk to you later!

Okay, heard it today, and LOVED it! I think we're going to try to do it for church sometime soon! Thanks!
