Beautiful Things

"You make beautiful things
You make beautiful things out of the dust
You make beautiful things
You make beautiful things out of us

You are making me new
Oh You are making me new"

Gungor says it such amazing words.  God has made something beautiful out of me.  He has made something beautiful out of the dust and depravity that was our inheritance.  Out of the mire rises the Church, the bride of Christ who's blood has paid our ransom and bought our way back to Yahweh.  And now we await the day when all creation will be made new.  Which reminds me of another Gungor song that I find myself listening to over and over again:

"Create in me a clean heart,
for I have turned my face from you.
Save us from our ways, oh God
oh God,
for we have turned away from you.
Lord have mercy.

We will run to you,
we will run to you.
Turning from our sin we return to you.
Father heal your world,
make all things new

Your love and mercy
build us, shape us
break and then recreate us now.
Lord, have mercy.

Oh bring us back to you,
oh bring us back to you"

Now that is beautiful <3
