God’s asking questions (we’re sneaking around) #christiansongs
Dude at church gave clear message from passage where Jesus heals lame man by pool. Wrote this tune after that message. cheers mate
How many questions/doubts/excuses do you have for not making the God of the bible your God? I certainly have had 100s.
Truth is, God has many more questions for me and you. We are the ones letting God down.
VERSE 1
We’re sneaking around the gardeners ground
We’re guilty and can’t run away
Don’t wanna be found, since hearing the sound;
His steps in the cool of the day.
We’re hiding because the presence of God
will melt down our hearts ’til we bow.
To lost sheep he calls, with words like a sword,
“Adam, where are you right now?”
CH1
God’s asking questions
Bringing conviction
Freed from transgression
O make Jesus your Christ and your Lord
He remembers our failures no more
V 2
For thirty eight years, he lay in his tears
down in the shade of sheep gate
He hated himself, and coveted wealth,
but Jesus saw this poor man’s faith
Yet many like him, were dead in their sin,
booked into bethesda’s hell
When Christ heard about the unhelpful crowds,
he asked “Do you want to be well?”
CH 2
God’s asking questions
Gauging intentions
Bless me with hunger
and a thirst for your kingdom to come
Your gospel’s advance is not done
V3
We know you are real, you’ve given Your Seal,
Your Spirit until You return
God loves and sustains, in sunshine and rain,
yet something within us still burns
The power of prayer, can we really dare
to ask “Will earth’s judge not do right?”
Our towns on the verge of doom it deserves,
Lord help us to fight the good fight
His voice plunges deep down into sin-sea
“Is anything too hard for me?”
Ch 3
God’s answered questions
Willing redemption
LORD of the harvest
send more labourers out to the world
Jesus the answer
Saviour and Master
God’s sinless ransom
We were purchased at such high a price
Forget all but your Christ crucified
BIBLE
Garden of eden, Genesis 3 vs 6-10
8 And they heard the sound of the Lord God walking in the garden in the cool of the day, and Adam and his wife hid themselves from the presence of the Lord God among the trees of the garden.
9 Then the Lord God called to Adam and said to him, “Where are you?”
10 So he said, “I heard Your voice in the garden, and I was afraid because I was naked; and I hid myself.”
Jeremiah 31 vs 31-34
John 5 vs 1-9, A Man Healed at the Pool of Bethesda
5 After this there was a feast of the Jews, and Jesus went up to Jerusalem. 2 Now there is in Jerusalem by the Sheep Gate a pool, which is called in Hebrew, Bethesda, having five porches. 3 In these lay a great multitude of sick people, blind, lame, paralyzed, waiting for the moving of the water. 5 Now a certain man was there who had an infirmity thirty-eight years. 6 When Jesus saw him lying there, and knew that he already had been in that condition a long time, He said to him, “Do you want to be made well?”
Beatitudes , Matthew 5 vs 3-10
6 Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness,
For they shall be filled.
Ephesians 1 vs 13-14
13 In Him you also trusted, after you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation; in whom also, having believed, you were sealed with the Holy Spirit of promise, 14 who is the guarantee of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, to the praise of His glory.
Genesis 18 vs 12-26
12 Therefore Sarah laughed within herself, saying, “After I have grown old, shall I have pleasure, my lord being old also?”
13 And the Lord said to Abraham, “Why did Sarah laugh, saying, ‘Shall I surely bear a child, since I am old?’ 14 Is anything too hard for the Lord? At the appointed time I will return to you, according to the time of life, and Sarah shall have a son.”
15 But Sarah denied it, saying, “I did not laugh,” for she was afraid.
And He said, “No, but you did laugh!”
Abraham Intercedes for Sodom
20 And the Lord said, “Because the outcry against Sodom and Gomorrah is great, and because their sin is very grave, 21 I will go down now and see whether they have done altogether according to the outcry against it that has come to Me; and if not, I will know.”
22 Then the men turned away from there and went toward Sodom, but Abraham still stood before the Lord. 23 And Abraham came near and said, “Would You also destroy the righteous with the wicked? 24 Suppose there were fifty righteous within the city; would You also destroy the place and not spare it for the fifty righteous that were in it? 25 Far be it from You to do such a thing as this, to slay the righteous with the wicked, so that the righteous should be as the wicked; far be it from You! Shall not the Judge of all the earth do right?”
