When all it took was just one day
For me to see it wasn't ordinary
I could never be the same
You took my hand and led the way
I didn't even know Your name
But something happened deep inside me
And I knew life would have to change
So how could I go back to life as usual
And how could I return to who I once was
I just want to take your story to the world
‘Cause you have shown me what it means to love
You healed the sick, You calmed the sea
But Your heart was for the least of these
You came to love the lost and broken
Your cross has set the captive free
So how could I go back to life as usual
And how could I return to who I once was
I just want to take your story to the world
‘Cause you have shown me what it means to love
Now I no longer live for myself
Your words are so clear
Help me live it loud enough so they can hear
So how could I go back to life as usual
And how could I return to who I once was
I just want to take your story to the world
‘Cause you have shown me what it means to love
(lyrics by Meredith Andrews from her song What it means to love)
I have never heard a song that defines where I am, right now in my life, so well as this one does. This song is such a mirror of what God has done in our life this past year, and I do NOT want to return to who I once was. Thank you Jesus for touching my heart and opening my eyes in a way that only You could. Thank you for not leaving me where I was.
The song can be found here.
