The Voice of Truth

Lyrics from Casting Crown's "Voice of Truth":

Oh what I would do to have
The kind of faith it takes
To climb out of this boat I'm in
Onto the crashing waves

To step out of my comfort zone
Into the realm of the unknown where Jesus is
And He's holding out His hand

But the waves are calling out my name
And they laugh at me
Reminding me of all the times
I've tried before and failed
The waves they keep on telling me
Time and time again,"Boy you'll never win!"
"You'll never win!"

But the Voice of Truth tells me a different story
The voice of truth says, "Do not be afraid!"
The voice of truth says, "This is for My glory"
Out of all the voices calling out to me
I will choose to listen and believe the voice of truth

Oh what I would do to have
The kind of strength it takes to stand before a giant
With just a sling and a stone
Surrounded by the sound of a thousand warriors
Shaking in their armor
Wishing they'd have the strength to stand

But the giant's calling out my name
And he laughs at me
Reminding me of all the times I've tried before and failed
The giant keeps on telling me
Time and time again. "Boy, you'll never win!"
"You'll never win!"

But the stone was just the right size
To put the giant on the ground
And the waves they don't seem so high
From on top of them lookin' down
I will soar with the wings of eagles
When I stop to listen to the sound of Jesus
Singing over me

I will choose to listen and believe the voice of truth.

Giving the devil his due (do)
Thats what happens when we choose NOT to listen to the voice of TRUTH
My dark side gave in, letting me DO somehting that hurt one of God's children; some one I love dearly
Due to the fact that the wrong voice was listened and I didn't Do the right thing is now causing me to pay my dues
The moral of this story
Don't do the devils due
you'll get yourself in some deep do do
Once you do
Once your in it
you just want to wash it off ASAP
It's dirty
It's smelly
It doesn't look very good
It's foul
If you step in it you don't want to get it on your hands
and it leaves a very bad taste in your mouth
God allows us to DO the things He knows we shouldn't allowing us to exercise our free will
When we step in it,fall in it get it on our hands and even in our mouth He provides a deep refreshing well of Forgiveness where we can can be wahed clean.
I'm still scrubbing
