Vision of You

The discusion this week on the Journeymen Podcast is about hearing from God and whether or not He still speaks to His people today. To me the question isn’t whether He still speaks, but whether we are listening. Sometimes it’s hard to get through the distractions in life to hear what He is saying, so it is important to specifically seek out His voice in your life. To do that, the Journeymen have made a commitment to seek out the voice of God.

With that in mind, these lyrics are my prayer this week. The words of the chorus are particularly applicable to seeking out God’s voice. As Christians, Jesus is in us just as we are in Him. “Awaken what’s inside of me” is a request for God to help us hear Him that is echoed through the rest of the song.

Come meet us, King Jesus
Oh wind of change blow through this temple
Sweet spirit of God, come and mend our hearts
For all we have are songs unless you come

Awaken what’s inside of me
Tune my heart to all You are in me
Even though You’re here, God come
May the vision of You be the death of me
and even though You’ve given everything
Jesus come

Come free us, King Jesus
It’s the only way that freedom’s given
From You and You alone in the work You’ve already done
For all we have are songs unless You come.

Awaken what’s inside of me
Tune my heart to all You are in me
Even though You’re here, God come
May the vision of You be the death of me
and even though You’ve given everything
Jesus come, oh Jesus come

Here we are, Lord, in this place
Crying out for Your embrace
To hear Your voice more than songs
Oh please come, Jesus come

Awaken what’s inside of me
Tune my heart to all You are in me.
Even though You’re here, God come
May the vision of You be the death of me
and even though You’ve given everything
Jesus come
