Dave Crowder Band - Wholly Yours

My heart turned when I first heard the lyrics to this song and just drawing a
comparison how Holy and beautiful God is and how stained I can be. From it I can't
help but be humbly reminded that its not how hard I try to clean myself up but how
much I willingly let God work in me that allows me to be sancitified. When I heard
that line "I am wholly, wholly, wholly yours", it opened an honest confession that
my commitment and faithfulness to God is anywhere near its entirety despite my
proclamation as a follower in Christ.

In this time of new years resolutions, I'm only going to make one. To live free and
in whole. Happy New Year's everyone! Here's the lyrics.

I am full of earth
You are heaven's worth
I am stained with dirt
Prone to depravity
You are everything that is bright and clean
The antonym of me
You are divinity
But a certain sign of grace is this:
From the broken earth
Flowers come up pushing through the dirt

You are holy, holy, holy
All heaven cries "Holy, holy God."
You are holy, holy, holy
I want to be holy like you are

You are everything that is bright and clean
And your covering me with Your majesty
And the And the truest sign of grace was this:
From wounded hands redemption fell down
Liberating man

You are holy, holy, holy
All heaven cries "Holy, holy God."
You are holy, holy, holy
I want to be holy like you are

But the harder I try the more cleary can I feel
The depth of our fall and the weight of it all
And so this might could be the most impossible thing:
Your grandness in me
Making me clean

Glory, hal-le-lu-jah
Glory, Glory, hal-le-lu-jah
So here I am
All of me
Finally everything

Wholly, wholly, wholly
I am wholly, wholly, wholly
I am wholly, wholly, wholly.....Yours

I am full of earth and dirt and You
