From The Inside Out

You know, I kinda had an epiphany of sorts this morning on the bus to work.
I finally decided and found out what my favourite worship song of all time is.
YES! I KNOW!
It's weird isn't it! Like how can you decide on just ONE song when there are so many songs out there that are just as good!
While songs like 'One Way', 'Time Has Come', 'Take It All', 'Shout To The Lord', 'The Stand' (yes i know...Hillsong galore!) and 'Jesus Loves Me' all get special mention for being up there.
But one thing I realised is that this song is very personal to me and thats why its no.1.

OK. I know you're dying to know what song it is.
It's "From The Inside Out" by Hillsong (again!).

Firstly, the song itself technically is a masterpiece. The introductory riff creates a great atmosphere, and the build up in the verse and pre-chorus that leads to the chorus cry is just great.

BBBBBUUUUTTTT!
That's not why I love this song.
It's not about the technicality of this song, but because of the lyrics and meaning behind this song.

It's my favourite song, because within this song, contains my whole revelation of who Jesus is and what the message of Christ means to us.
And I feel like my whole life's testimony is wrapped up in this simple song.

No matter how many thousand and million times I've failed as a person and more importantly, as a Child of God, His mercy and love still remains. And that no matter what, His light will be shining brightly for me when all else fails and I can fall back on His grace when I stumble.
So with that, I just want to lose myself in bringing praise to God, from the inside out of my soul crying out to Him.


WOW. That whole paragraph there is what this song is all about to me.
That I was a person that was broken and spoilt. And Jesus came into my life, and HE messed me up in a good way. And I am now able to stand for Him. And even though I may fail at times, He will never fail me.

I personally think worship is about you and God.
It's about coming before a real God and being real to Him about your struggles and your worries, and after being real to Him, its about bringing a real heart and real soul up to Him and letting Him REALLY take control of it. Now that's SURREAL, but its SO REAL!

May You find the art of losing yourself in worship to a Real God.

So what's your favourite worship song?
