Inspirational singer songwriter, piano driven Christian music
Story behind the song
This song is more convicting now than when I wrote it. He disciplines the ones He loves. I feel the love! Not always easy, but oh so necessary.
Lyrics
You say You discipline the ones You love
Then I must truly be Your own
For I can feel Your Words cut through my heart making my sin and failures known
I want to run far away and hide
So I can hold on to my selfishness and pride
It seems to painful to give it all to You
Even though I know it's what I must do
In a still small voice, I can hear you say, "Do you love me"
In a still small voice, I can hear you say, "If you love me. You will do what I say and follow and obey."
To be Your child is an awesome thing
But at times I resent Your parenting
You love me more than I could ever understand
And You guide me with a loving hand
So as my Father I come to You
And confess this rebellious attitude
I know You see things that I just can't see
And to follow You means to die to me
In a still small voice, I can hear you say, "Do you love me"
In a still small voice, I can hear you say, "If you love me. You will do what I say and follow and obey"
To obey is better than sacrifice
Pride comes before a fall
I am learning that to follow You
Means I must surrender all
If I want to obey Your call
In a still small voice, I can hear you say, "Do you love me"
In a still small voice, I can hear you say, "If you love me. You will do what I say and follow and obey"
