Beyond
Listen:
MP3
Dawn, the sunrise in the east.
The woman came to me.
She said, "The stone was rolled away!"
I ran, the empty tomb to see.
Returning to my oars,
A stranger called from shore
To cast on starboard side. The fish jumped in,
And I jumped overboard.
I was starting to see
That the risen Lord, He was calling to me.
For my sin's reward, He said
"Feed my sheep.
Come and follow Me."
"Beyond what you can see or feel,
What you believe is real,
Is more than you can know.
Where deep is calling unto deep,
Within this mystery,
Is where you're called to go."
Fire, the streets were filled with praise.
The power of God displayed
For young and old to see.
The Spirit fell to set the people free.
But not just to the Jew.
To taste forbidden food
He took me to a Roman's house.
The Spirit came
And filled them, too.
But the king full of pride,
Locked me in a room
to be sentenced to die.
But the angel knew
that the gates would swing wide,
And I walked into the night.
Beyond what I could comprehend,
What I dared to believe,
Was right before my eyes.
From further up and further in
His voice was calling me
To leave my fear behind,
and run with Him to go beyond...
I finally realize His greatest gift to me,
To look beyond the one within the mirror
to the one I'm meant to be.
Beyond what I could ever dream,
The Kingdom of the Lord
Is here inside of me.
For I could never have foreseen
The wonders He performed
To help me to believe
Beyond.
