Only Love Remains
As I spend the day recouperating and cleaning after the last two mad weeks, I have been listening to JJ Heller. Her music is such a God send today. I have smiled and wept. The weight of the world is slowly being lifted.
Scenes of you come rushing through;
you are breaking me down.
So break me into pieces,
that will grow in the ground
I know that I deserve to die
for the murder in my heart.
So be gentle with me Jesus
as you tear me apart
Please kill the liar,
kill the thief in me
You know that I am tired of their cruelty.
Breathe into my spirit,
Breathe into my veins,
Until only love remains
You burn away the ropes that bind
and hold me to the earth.
The fire only leaves behind whatever is of worth.
I begin to see reality
for the first time in my life.
I know that I'm a shadow,
but I'm dancing in your light.
Teach me to be humble.
Call me from the grave.
Show me how to walk with you upon the waves.
Breathe into my spirit.
Breathe into my veins
Until only love remains
