An energetic challenge from Jesus to you, to give Him the thing He wants from you, right now — to 'let Him into your deep hideaway” and see how great romance with Him can be. (“Complete surrender is all I require!”)

Christian contemporary songs, to deepen your personal spirituality, assist your philosophical musings, and turn your heart to Jesus Christ.
Jesus desires us to be "fishers of men" -- to make Him known in ways that make it easier for Him to capture and fill their hearts. Ordinary "fishers" like us -- who aren't too greatly skilled or too wildly charismatic -- can still cast a hook and line and scatter some "chum" on the water, can't we? "Chum" made up of our own raw emotions, fears, failures, and love for Christ? Anyhow, that's what Chumsongs is meant to do.

Story behind the song
This song should resonate with any Christian who is determined to walk daily in greater holiness. We believers all know that there is usually one particular "sensual thing" that the Lord is pointing to and demanding of us; one "deep hideaway" He wishes to invade and illuminate. This is Jesus challenging you to surrender that thing and open that place to Him.
Lyrics
“You have something I want,” says the Lord. “I am Jesus, your King! “It’s more precious than God to you, now. "Let go that sensual thing!" REFRAIN Break your alabaster box! Make a sacrifice of something dear! Take your offering to the Father’s throne; Pour it out – pour it out, for the love of Jesus Christ! “Your appetites and your personal rights "Don’t draw you closer to Me; “Just let Me come into your deep hideaway – "And see how close we can be!” REFRAIN “Romance with me will be far sweeter than life. "Hold nothing back from my touch! “Lay down your idols at the foot of my throne, "Because I love you so much!” REFRAIN “Complete surrender is all I require; "Your flesh is counted but loss; “Abundant life can only come out of death; "Follow Me and take up your Cross!" REFRAIN “When Mary’s perfume ran down over My head, "She held up her open hand; “You can not ever, ever give more than I! "Test Me and see if you can!" REFRAIN
