Jesus Messiah...

This week I had the opportunity to drive to Herculaneum and get my oil changed. Sounds fun, huh? Well, little did I know as I took off in my car Thursday that this drive to get my oil change would turn out to be the most amazing time of praise & worship. As I was driving up Hwy 67 "Jesus Messiah" by Chris Tomlin came on and suddenly I was overwhelmed by His presence. It truly was as if He was perched right there in the passenger's seat (physically and in the driver's seat spiritually)next to me! Tear's flooding down my face, hands lifted in praise, belting out this song in total praise as I was driving. As I think of it now (because I was totally oblivious to anyone around me other than Christ) people passing by me were sure to think I had either totally lost it or I'm choosing to think that they were witnessing one of the most amazing times of praise & worship!! That morning before I left I had read Psalm 139 and these verses came back on my heart as I was worshiping "You have searched me and known me. You know my sitting down and my rising up; You understand my thought afar off. You comprehend my path and my lying down, And are acquainted with all my ways. For there is not a word on my tongue, But behold, O Lord, You know it altogether. You have hedged me behind and before, and laid Your hand upon me." (v. 1-5) Praise Him!!

The words to this song lead to an amazing conversation with Christ. One filled with praise for who He is and all He has done! So here they are...enjoy and sing them like never before, for He is faithful and amazing!!!

Jesus Messiah by Chris Tomlin

He became sin
Who knew no sin
That we might become His Righteousness
He humbled himself and carried the cross

Love so amazing
Love so amazing

Chorus:
Jesus Messiah
Name above all names
Blessed Redeemer
Emmanuel
The rescue for sinners
The ransom from Heaven
Jesus Messiah
Lord of all

His body the bread
His blood the wine
Broken and poured out all for love
The whole earth trembled
And the veil was torn

Love so amazing
Love so amazing, yeah

Chorus:
Jesus Messiah
Name above all names
Blessed Redeemer
Emmanuel
The rescue for sinners
The ransom from Heaven
Jesus Messiah
Lord of all

All our hope is in You
All our hope is in You
All the glory to You, God
The light of the world

Chorus:
Jesus Messiah
Name above all names
Blessed Redeemer
Emmanuel
The rescue for sinners
The ransom from Heaven
Jesus Messiah
Lord of all
