So long self… October 14, 2008

Well if I come across a little bit distant
It’s just because I am
Things just seem to feel a little bit different
You understand
Believe it or not but life is not apparently
About me anyways
But I have met the One who really is worthy
So let me say
So long, self
Well, it’s been fun, but I have found somebody else
So long, self
There’s just no room for two
So you are gonna have to move
So long, self
Don’t take this wrong but you are wrong for me, farewell
Oh well, goodbye, don’t cry
So long, self
Stop right there because I know what you’re thinking
But no we can’t be friends
And even though I know your heart is breaking
This has to end
And come to think of it the blame for all of this
Simply falls on me
For wanting something more in life than all of this
Can’t you see

Don’t feel so bad
There’ll be better days

 

 

Don’t go away mad (but by all means)
Just go away, go away

 **Mercy Me**

I love these lyrics. It’s like they watched my life before I was saved, and snuck inside my heart since I’ve been saved to understand my new desires. But that’s the amazing thing about the power of God’s transformation in our lives….it’s always radical like this! We are all different people, and diversity throughout the Christian faith is a certainty….but old self dying and new self being born is alike. It’s awesome. It’s humbling. It’s exciting. I am singing at the top of my lungs today…so long self!
