Sweetly Broken




Jeremy Riddle - Sweetly Broken
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 sing

For on it my Savior both bruised and crushed
Showed that God is love
And God is just

Chorus:
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 surrendered

What a priceless gift, undeserved life
Have I been given
Through Christ crucified

You’ve called me out of death
You’ve called me into life
And I was under Your wrath
Now through the cross I’m reconciled

Chorus:

In awe of the cross I must confess
How wondrous Your redeeming love and
How great is Your faithfulness

(2x’s)
Chorus:

I LOVE THIS SONG!!!!!
It honestly makes me cry, because its such a beautiful, amazing song. It is also an amazng truth, of how my God died for me, how our God loves me so much that he was willing to save me from death. To think that my strong beautiful God became weak and suffured for me. I find myself crying out to HIm, because I am not worthy of His love, but I will gracously accept it, and be truly thankful for it. I will confess to Him that Im a screw up, and ask HIm for forgivness, because I know that He will accept me and love me, because He has already shown His AMAZING love for me. HE DIED FOR ME!!!!!

One of the GREATEST analogies I have ever heard is...

As kids we play in mud and get dirty, and probably end up getting hurt. All we want is for our parents to snuggle us and comfert us. But we are all messy and dirty and gross.

Well as christians, we are dirty and messy and gross. but God loves us sooo much that he doesnt care how messy and dirty we are. He will have open arms for us to run into, so he can hold us and comfert us.

Im so thankful that I will always be loved, no matter what I do or screw up on. God will never leave me.
