Why do we love?

it's been so long since i last blogged. guess i've been so caught up with studies.. but thankfully i haven't neglected my walk with God. its still going on and strong. once i drift away, God'll make me feel so empty inside, and make me want to draw near to him again. it's awesome how God works isn't it? only He can satisfy the God-shaped hole in our lives.

i've been thinking of conformity the past week, and i felt led by the Spirit to write a song about it. its titled "Renewed", and the theme is taken from Romans 12:2, and in the process of writing the song, i thought of Hebrews 12:2 and Psalm 37:4 too. here it is, enjoy. Glory to God.

Renewed

Verse 1
Jesus, Saviour of the world
I just want you to know
I don't want to be led astray by the world
I just want to be lost in your love

Chorus
I'm sorry Lord
But I keep following the worldly patterns
Forgive me Lord
I want to delight myself in your ways, in your truth
Oh cleanse me and I'll be renewed

Verse 2
Though I've learnt it the hard way now
That only you can satisfy
I want to reflect your beauty and light
All of you and no more of me

Bridge
I don't want my selfish desires
All I want is your will in my life
I don't want the earthly desires
Jesus I want to focus my eyes
On you, on you
