Though You Slay Me...

       I've listened to this song a lot in the last couple months, and it's especially 'real' to me right now.I listen to it because it reminds me of essential truths.  Truths that need to hear, but usually don't want to. Life's hard sometimes, but God is always good - so though I can't see through it, I praise Him for it.






Though You Slay Me

I come, God, I come
I return to the Lord
The one who's broken
The one who's torn me apart
You struck down to bind me up
You say You do it all in love
That I might know You in Your suffering

Though You slay me
Yet I will praise You
Though You take from me
I will bless Your name
Though You ruin me
Still I will worship
Sing a song to the one who's all I need

My heart and flesh may fail
The earth below give way
But with my eyes, with my eyes I'll see the Lord
Lifted high on that day
Behold, the Lamb that was slain
And I'll know every tear was worth it all

Though You slay me
Yet I will praise You
Though You take from me
I will bless Your name
Though You ruin me
Still I will worship
Sing a song to the one who's all I need

Though tonight I'm crying out
Let this cup pass from me
You're still more than I need
You're enough 
Weather healing in my frame
or if not, it's just the same
As long as I bring Glory to Your Name


Though You slay me
Yet I will praise You
Though You take from me
I will bless Your name
Though You ruin me
Still I will worship
Sing a song to the one who's all I need
Sing a song to the one who's all I need

Sing a song to the one who's all I need
