unredeemed

I have found the PERFECT song.   My good friend John introduced me to the song, Unredeemed by Selah.  OH. MY. GOODNESS.  First of all, I am in no way surprised that this particular group released a song with such heart wrenching lyrics.  They are famous (literally) for that. 

However, if you ask me, this one takes the cake.  It is possible that you have heard the song before.  Apparently it was released in 2010.  With iPods, iPads, Pandora and smart phones, it has been a LONG time since I have tuned in to Christian radio.  Not only is the song amazing, but my life could have written the words.  It is truly my testimony at this time.  John just happens to be a great singer and this song just happens to be a duet!  I look forward to sharing this song with him.  I want to share the lyrics with you...

 

" The cruelest world

The coldest heart

The deepest wound

The endless dark

The lonely ache

The burning tears

The bitter night

The wasted years

 

Life breaks and falls apart

But we know these are

 

Places where grace is soon to be so amazing

It may be unfulfilled

It may be unrestored

But when anything that's shattered

Is laid before the Lord

Just watch and see

It will not be unredeemed

 

For every choice that led to shame

And all the love that never came

For every vow that someone broke

And every lie that gave up hope

We live in the shadow of the fall

But the cross says these are all

 

Places where grace is soon to be so amazing

It may be unfulfilled

It may be unrestored

But you never know the miracle the Father has in store  (emphasis mine!)

Just watch and see

It will not be

UNREDEEMED!

 

 

I'll give you a moment to let that sink in...   It does that to me too!  I will tell you that reading the words is great, but you REALLY should actually hear the song to experience the full blessing.  So, stop NOW, go to YouTube and type in "Unredeemed by Selah."  Several versions will pop up.  Click on the one with the dark-haired member (cannot remember his name) is sitting at the piano.  It has the best sound quality.  Feel free to email, text or (FB) message me your thoughts!!  I am super excited about this one!

No matter what we are going through..  No matter what pain we are experiencing.  If your life is broken, if your life is shattered, bring your burden(s) to the Lord and lay it at His feet.  Your pain will not be in vain.  You circumstances will not be unfulfilled or unrestored.  They will be REDEEMED.  Now, go listen to this song on YouTube.  I look forward to your feedback!   

 

Expect a blessing.
