Pausing in the Midst of Lent to Listen

Lent Day 19

Not too far back, I posted this song on my Facebook page. The hymn-like quality, the lyrics & music seemed to fit my Lenten Journey to date.

A prayer of the heart, leading to a proper identity in my Savior.

The power of a fast, leading to satisfaction in Christ alone.

The pregnant pause of thankfulness, leading to gratitude for the cross.

All adding up to sweet rejoicing.

Here are the words to view, but they need the music to truly speak deeply to your soul.

So, follow the link and travel to the cross to find your wealth, your value, your satisfaction, and your joy.

My Wealth is Not in What I Own

“My worth is not in what I own
Not in the strength of flesh and bone
But in the costly wounds of love
At the cross

My worth is not in skill or name
In win or lose, in pride or shame
But in the blood of Christ that flowed
At the cross

Refrain:
I rejoice in my Redeemer
Greatest Treasure,
Wellspring of my soul
I will trust in Him, no other.
My soul is satisfied in Him alone.

As summer flowers we fade and die
Fame, youth and beauty hurry by
But life eternal calls to us
At the cross

I will not boast in wealth or might
Or human wisdom’s fleeting light
But I will boast in knowing Christ
At the cross

Refrain

Two wonders here that I confess
My worth and my unworthiness
My value fixed – my ransom paid
At the cross

Refrain”
