I’d like to take a moment to explain one of the lyrics on this song. “Who am I to gain such worth, that my Lord would share my birth, when you created the heavens”
God shared our birth in that the Word became flesh and dwelt among us. This increased our worth in that He bought us not with silver or gold (which perishes) but with the precious blood of the Christ. The amazing honor He has bestowed upon us by coming in the flesh, as a man…. wow. The maker of the heavens and the earth, the Eternal God humbled Himself so that He could lift us up.
“When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, The moon and the stars, which You have ordained, what is man that You are mindful of him, And the son of man that You visit him?”
Psalm 8:3-4
Lyrics:
Verse:
YOUR KINDNESS OH LORD IS ALL THAT I NEED
YOU FILL ME WITH LOVE YOUR GRACE AND YOUR PEACE
YOU’VE RECONCILED MY LIFE TO YOUR OWN
THROUGH JESUS THE SON OF GOD
YOU MADE YOURSELF KNOWN
Chorus:
YOU CREATED THE HEAVENS
YOU LAID THE FOUNDATIONS OF THE EARTH
YOU DWELL IN GLORY
WHO AM I TO GAIN SUCH WORTH
THAT MY LORD WOULD SHARE MY BIRTH
WHEN YOU CREATED THE HEAVENS
