Search me, and know my heart; O God,
test me and know my anxious thoughts.
Search me, and know my thoughts; O God,
test me and know my anxious heart,
my anxious heart
my anxious heart.
my heart…my heart…my heart…my heart…
What You knit together in my mother’s womb
Was body & soul together in that sacred room
I will thank and praise You - praise You all my days
For fearfully and wonderfully are the ways that I am made
If I ride the wings of dawn or live beyond the sea
Your strong hand will hold me fast Your right hand guides me
When the sin that darkens me is running from Your light
Or when I ask the dark of night to hide me from Your eyes
even the darkness will not be dark to You;
even the darkness will not be dark to You;
even the darkness will not be dark to You;
for the darkest of the darkness is as light to You.
The nighttime it is shining like the day to You
The nightest of all nighttimes is so bright to You
The brightest of the brightness is the same to You
Even the darkness will not be dark to You
Search me, and know my heart; O God,
test me and know my anxious thoughts.
Search me, and know my thoughts; O God,
test me and know my anxious heart,
my anxious heart
my anxious heart.
my heart…my heart…my heart…my heart…
even the darkness will not be dark to You
even the darkness will not be dark to You
even the darkness will not be dark to You
even the darkness will not be dark to You
even the darkness will not be dark to You
even the darkness will not be dark to You
it's such a beautiful album of grieving and loss and acceptance. it speaks to a particular kind of grief -- not a grieving of one who is lost, but the grieving for one who is still present and still causing pain. i love the last song most because while it could end in pain, or end with the narrators decision to permanently push this person out of their life and that would be justified, it doesn't. instead, it offers something. what is offered? acceptance. hope. and a chance for redemption janmisha
This album is perfect-my new favorite shalom sesh! I could listen to this all day, with tea, The Word, near a body of water as the peace of God washes over me. HalleluYah! I really like the lo-fi sound it reminds me of classics(JDilla, even Air). I can certainly feel the inspiration from Japan in this. The more I listen to JO the more I feel his love for Yeshua and it fills me so much love too. Glory to Abba for this beautiful work of art! It is soul medicine:) Shalom shalom Yaaqova
