During the weekend we listened to worship music that was provided to go along with our retreat booklet. There was a song that touched my heart (and everyone else's also) so deeply that I continue to play it today and still get the same feeling.
On this day today, it is raining and kind of dreary. I'm not feeling all that great. I just played this song and literally wept as it played. I was reminded of how I am being carried by our Lord.
I decided I would share the words to this song for you.
YOU CARRY ME
by Shannon J. Wexelberg
Insufficient for the task, I will always be.
I can't lift a single finger without
your grace to strengthen me.
Who am I to think I could hold my own,
When heaven knows I'm not alone.
Oh, you care me, you point the way, you steady my feet.
You hold my hand; you are the strength of who I am.
The world may think I'm strong, but they're wrong.
You carry me.
There are times I've felt alone,
Seems I've called but no one came.
I couldn't sense the hand of heaven,
but I know it was there just the same.
In the darkest moments of my life
I believe you old me tight.
Oh, you carry me, you point the way, you steady my feet.
Yeah, you hold my hand, you are the strength of who I am.
The world down here may think I'm strong,
but they're wrong.
'Cause I need you, oh, I need you,
Like the flower needs the rain.
I need you, oh, I need you, with
every breath I take.
You carry me, you point the way,
you steady my feet.
You hold my hand, you are the
strength of who I am.
You carry me, you point the way
you steady my feet.
You hold my hand, you are the
strength of who I am.
The world down here may
think I'm strong,
But they're wrong.
Heaven knows, heaven knows,
You carry me.
