song lyrics, continued.

yes... i love that song, sarah. it was pretty much my theme song last year. gotta love sandra mccracken. something that i have learned and know that ya'll have as well, as we continue to wait upon God for a husband or anything at all, is that we must die to all that we want or desire and allow Him to take those desires under His control. the more i must die, and the more i must wait, the more it draws me to Him and makes me love Him more. though, this isn't always my first instinct. it's more like, God please give me what i want, then i realize in Your timing alone. well, caedmon's call really nails these truths in the song, ten thousand angels. i guess you could say this is my theme song this year. haha.

"ten thousand angels" - caedmon's call

how long you have traveled in darkness weeping
no rest in language, no words to speak
but there in the wreckage beneath bricks and bindings
love has come, love has come for you

against the night sky of your waiting
your face is like starlight when he walks in
everything worth keeping comes through dying
love has come, love has come for you

so lift up your heart now, to this unfolding
all that has been broken will be restored
here runs deep waters for all who are thirsty
love has come, love has come for you

ten thousand angels will light your pathway
until the day breaks fully in the East
they will surround you and make your way straight
love has come, love has come for you
love has come, love has come for you
