"DEVOTION" - Hillsong United

VERSE 1

I've been running, trying to be one who sees

I've been working salvation out on my knees

There is nothing better than knowing

That we are redeemed

I'm believing, trusting in creative hands

I am praying for our world to bow to Your plan

And this one thought is unmistakable

I take up my cross and follow You Lord

CHORUS

When you stand the tall trees and mountains bow

When you speak the fiercest of oceans is still

And I see the sinner seek devotion

The lost become chosen

And I fall to my knees

VERSE 2

I'm forgiven; my Savior who did not deserve death

He was blameless and I was lost in shamefulness

I'm delivered but it doesn't seem right

Unless I keep my eyes focused on the Savior who gave His life

In the middle of a world that denies it believes

It is breaking apart at the very seams

There is one thing to be alive for

And it's to take up my cross and follow You Lord

BRIDGE

I will take up my cross and follow

Lord where You lead me

And I will take up my cross and follow wherever You go

(repeat)

CHORUS (X2)

3 weeks and counting. And my heart has not changed. It is still focused on You, my God. Holy Spirit, continue to convict my heart of my salvation. Continue to mold my character, help me to live out each day, to deny myself and to carry the cross. I never want to let go of this conviction in my heart having known what You've done for me. There is nothing better than knowing that I am redeemed. Nothing but You.
