I Wonder


I cannot get enough of this song I Wonder, by Leeland.
Its so beautiful. Ive been listening to it on repeat whenever I can.
Mostly the version that my sister and nephew did. 
(Which I'm sharing the video of below, because they do an amazing beautiful version of it. Please take a listen.)

The chorus is what gets me the most....

"Jesus Christ,
You bled Your love, laid down Yourself
And gave me life!

In naked shame You hung and You were lifted high
So, here I lay in awe and wonder...

And, I am afraid...
For no one’s ever sacrificed and loved me this way!

So on my face I fall under Your heavy grace.
Here I lay in awe and wonder

And I wonder
"

The thought, the reminder, of that kind of love is so overwhelmingly powerful, it brings me to tears.
Happy, thoughtful tears.
How can we not want to love and live for a wonderful savior like that?
How can we not constantly be in awe of who He is and what He has done for us?
How can we not want to share a love like that with everyone!?
How can we know this and not want to be better because of it?

My answer is that I cant.
The heavy grace, and love I have in Him, makes me want to sing...
Makes me want to proclaim His love to all who will listen.
Makes me want to live better, be better each day.
Makes me want to live each day, minute, second for Him....
In awe of Him!
This life we live is a gift, we have a purpose, in Him.
We are loved beyond compare, by our wonderful heavenly Father.
And I cant help but desire to share that with the world.

I do hope you will take a listen to this beautiful song!
Close your eyes and let it take you to a place of awe and wonder for our amazing Lord & Savior, again.
This video below is the version my sister, Mona, and her son, Josh (the taller young man in the photo) did.
Josh is also the one playing guitar for the song. ♥
