Overwhelming Worship

Christ alone, cornerstone, weak made strong in the father's love, through the storm He is Lord, Lord of all.

At the cross, at the cross, where I first saw the light and the burden of my heart rolled away. It was there by faith I received my sight and now I am happy all the day!

Above all powers, above all kings, above all nature and all created things; above all wisdom and all the ways of man, you were here before the world began. Above all kingdoms, above all thrones, above all wonders the world has ever known; above all wealth and treasures of the earth, there's no way to measure what you're worth. Crucified, laid behind the stone; you lived to die, rejected and alone; like a rose trampled on the ground, you took the fall and thought of me above all.

I was truly overwhelmed by worship this Easter Sunday morning. More than once I closed my eyes with a lump in my throat and just let the music wash over me. :) I have no words to express the emotions I felt at that time. I was awed and humbled by my God and overwhelmed with joy and gratitude and...and at the time I was speechless. I couldn't even sing. I just closed my eyes and swayed slightly to the music and cried. Because Jesus died for me, and Jesus was buried for me, and because Jesus rose again I can have new life!
