What do I know of holy.

I've been listening to this song alot lately. What do I know of holy by Addison road. The lyrics speak straight to my heart.

I made You promises a thousand times
I tried to hear from Heaven
But I talked the whole time
I think I made You too small
I never feared You at all No
If You touched my face would I know You?
Looked into my eyes could I behold You?

(CHORUS)
What do I know of You
Who spoke me into motion?
Where have I even stood
But the shore along Your ocean?
Are You fire? Are You fury?
Are You sacred? Are You beautiful?
What do I know? What do I know of Holy?

I guess I thought that I had figured You out
I knew all the stories and I learned to talk about
How You were mighty to save
Those were only empty words on a page
Then I caught a glimpse of who You might be
The slightest hint of You brought me down to my knees

(CHORUS)
What do I know of You
Who spoke me into motion?

Where have I even stood
But the shore along Your ocean?
Are You fire? Are You fury?
Are You sacred? Are You beautiful?
What do I know? What do I know of Holy?

(CHORUS 2)
What do I know of Holy?
What do I know of wounds that will heal my shame?
And a God who gave life "its" name?
What do I know of Holy?
Of the One who the angels praise?
All creation knows Your name
On earth and heaven above
What do I know of this love?

(CHORUS)
What do I know of You
Who spoke me into motion?
Where have I even stood
But the shore along Your ocean?
Are You fire? Are You fury?
Are You sacred? Are You beautiful?
What do I know? What do I know of Holy?

What do I know of Holy?
What do I know of Holy?

A list for myself.

I need mercy above all else.

I want to learn wisdom, and unlearn willful self-preoccupation.

I need to learn to love both God and neighbor.
"The goal of our instruction is love that comes from a pure heart, a good conscience, and a sincere faith."

I long for God name to be honored, for his kingdom to come, for his will to be done on earth, for his whole church to be glorified together.

I want Christ glory and loving kindness and goodness to be seen on earth, to fill the earth as obviously as water fill the ocean.

I need God to be my refuge and deliverer, setting me free from enemies, sufferings, sorrows, death, temptations.

I long for the Lord to wipe away all tears.

I need God to change me from who I am by instinct, choice, and practice.

I want him to deliver me from my obsessive self-righteousness, to slay my lust for self-vindication, so that I feel my need for the mercy of Christ, so that I learn to treat other gently.

I need God mighty and intimate help in order to will and to do those thing that last unto eternal life.

I want to learn how to endure hardship and suffering in hope, having my faith simplified, deepened, and purified.

I need to learn, to listen, to worship, to delight, to trust, to give thanks, to cry out, to take refuge, to obey, to serve, to hope.

I want to attain the resurrection to eternal life.
"We groan within ourselves, waiting eagerly for our adoption as sons, the redemption of our body."

I need God himself.

I ask for all of these in the name of the Redeemer of all that is dark and broken.
