While journaling the other day as me and my Bible Study ladies were praying for each other and interceding for a friend’s husband and his health we decided to do an impromptu partaking of Communion. As we soaked in some songs while reflecting on Communion I wrote:
His body broken=me made Whole
His blood poured out and shed=I am covered and my sins are cleansed.
Today while praying and listening to music I wrote:
His wounded and broken body restored and made mine whole.
Then this song came on and it resonated with me so I knew it was this weeks #SongSunday .
Wounded One by Davy Flowers
Lyrics:
VERSE 1
Worthy is the Lamb who was slain
The One who broke down the great wall of enmity, and gave me His name
How gracious is My redeemer, King Jesus, the Son of the Highest
What could I possibly give to You, but the fragrance of my
PRE-CHORUS 1
Hallelu—jah, Hallelu—jah
Hallelu—jah, Hallelu—jah
VERSE 2
Holy is the Man of Sorrows
Destroying the works of the evil one, all with Your own blood
And mercies before and behind You, such beauty all around You
And how could I ever repay You, but with the fragrance of my
PRE-CHORUS 2
Hallelu—jah, Hallelu—jah
Hallelu—jah, Hallelu—jah
CHORUS
Praise be to the Wounded One
Glory and honor to the Son
We ascribe worth and give love to You Lord
Let the fragrance of our love go forth
BRIDGE
We lift our gaze, we lift our gaze
We lift our gaze, we lift our gaze (repeat)
You are higher
CHORUS
Praise be to the Wounded One
Glory and honor to the Son
We ascribe worth and give love to You Lord
Let the fragrance of our love go forth
CHORUS 2
We pour our love on You
In the middle of the night (repeat)
I love the verses in the song that say- “And how could I ever repay You, but with the fragrance of my Hallelujah” and
“Let the fragrance of our love go forth.”
What fragrances are you emitting for the Lord ? After all that He has done for us it doesn’t seem right to offer Him imitation or cheap knock off’s. I want to always be pouring out the “good stuff” on Him -regardless the costs. He did not count the costs for me.
I want my Hallelujah’s and fragrances to reflect my appreciation for His great sacrifice.
He was wounded so we can be whole and restored. ~XXOO Michelle Bollom
