Just came across the most beautiful song I've heard.. and the most beautiful poem recited.

Kari Jobe is an exceptional worshiper. Whenever I watch her worship, I can only say that that song is not meant for me, nor for the congregation. Her worship is for God alone. She only has One Audience.

I pray to God that every time I worship, I would only do for One. I pray that whenever I worship, I open up a different realm-- a spirit world, where I hear angels and saints crying out praises.. where I see God-- not His hands, not his presence.. but His face.

And the poem. It's been so long since I last wrote one, but that poem definitely made me get my praise on!

And because of this outpouring, I'm sharing you the poem, yes! Took me a while to get the right lines. I've watched the video over and over, still I couldn't get enough. I hope we can do something like this at the concert. :)

FOREVER - Brian Johnson

IF THERE ARE WORDS FOR HIM THEN I DON’T HAVE THEM.
YOU SEE MY BRAIN HAS NOT YET REACHED A POINT WHERE IT COULD FORM A TAUGHT THAT COULD ADEQUATELY DESCRIBE THE GREATNESS OF MY GOD, 
AND MY LUNGS HAVE NOT YET DEVELOP THE ABILITY TO RELEASE A BREATH WITH ENOUGH AGILITY TO BREATHE OUT THE GREATNESS OF HIS LOVE, 
AND MY VOICE,  
YOU SEE MY VOICE IS SO INHIBITED, 
RESTRAINED BY HUMAN LIMITS, 
THAT ITS HARD TO EVEN SEND A PRAISE UP, 
YOU SEE, IF THERE ARE WORDS FOR HIM THEN I DON’T HAVE THEM. 
MY GOD. 
HIS GRACE IS REMARKABLE, 
MERCIES ARE INNUMERABLE, 
STRENGTH IS IMPENETRABLE, 
HE IS HONOURABLE, 
ACCOUNTABLE, 
FAVOURABLE, 
HE IS UNSEARCHABLE YET KNOWABLE, 
HE IS INDEFINABLE YET APPROACHABLE, 
INDESCRIBABLE YET PERSONAL, 
HE IS BEYOND COMPREHENSION, 
FURTHER THAN IMAGINATION, 
CONSTANT TO GENERATIONS, 
KING OF EVERY NATION, 
BUT IF THERE ARE WORDS FOR HIM THEN I DON’T HAVE THEM. 
YOU SEE MY WORDS ARE FEW,
AND TO TRY AND CAPTURE THE ONE TRUE GOD USING MY VOCABULARY WOULD NEVER DO, 
BUT I USE WORDS AS AN EXPRESSION, 
AN EXPRESSION OF WORSHIP TO A SAVIOUR, 
A SAVIOUR WHO IS BOTH WORTHY AND DESERVING OF MY PRAISE, 
SO I USE WORDS.

MY HEART EXTOLS THE LORD, 
BLESSES HIS NAME FOREVER, 
HE HAS WON MY HEART, 
CAPTURED MY MIND AND HAS BOUND THEM BOTH TOGETHER, 
HE HAS DEFEATED ME IN MY REBELLION, 
CONQUERED ME IN MY SIN, 
HE HAS WELCOMED ME INTO HIS PRESENCE, 
COMPLETELY INVITED ME IN, 
HE HAS MADE HIMSELF THE OBJECT OF MY SIGHT, 
FLOODING ME WITH MERCIES IN THE MORNING, 
DROWNING ME WITH GRACE IN THE NIGHT, BUT IF THERE ARE WORDS FOR HIM THEN I DON’T HAVE THEM.

BUT WHAT I DO HAVE IS GOOD NEWS,
FOR MY GOD KNEW THAT MAN-MADE WORDS WOULD NEVER DO, 
THE WORDS ARE JUST TOOLS THAT WE USE TO POINT TO THE TRUTH, 
SO HE SENT HIS SON JESUS CHRIST AS THE WORD, LIVING PROOF, 
HE IS THE IMAGE OF THE INVISIBLE GOD, 
THE FIRSTBORN OF ALL CREATION, 
FOR BY HIM ALL THINGS WERE CREATED, 
GIVING NOTHINGNESS FORMATION AND BY HIS WORD HE SUSTAINS IN THE POWER OF HIS NAME, 
FOR HE IS BEFORE ALL THINGS AND OVER ALL THINGS HE RAISED, 
HOLY IS HIS NAME, 
SO PRAISE HIM FOR HIS LIFE!

THE WAY HE PERSEVERED AND STRIVED, 
THE HUMBLE SON OF GOD BECOMING THE PERFECT SACRIFICE, 
PRAISE HIM FOR HIS DEATH. 
THAT HE WILLINGLY STOOD IN OUR PLACE, 
THAT HE LOVINGLY ENDURED THE GRAVE, 
THAT HE BURIED OUR ENEMY IN AND ON THE THIRD DAY ROSE IN VICTORY.

HE IS EVERYTHING THAT WAS PROMISED, 
PRAISE HIM AS A RISEN KING, 
LIFT YOUR VOICE AND SING, 
AND FOR ONE DAY HE WILL RETURN FOR US AND WE WILL FINALLY BE UNITED WITH OUR SAVIOUR FOR ETERNITY, ETERNITY. 

SO IT’S NOT JUST WORDS THAT I PROCLAIM, 
FOR MY WORDS POINT AT THE WORD, 
AND THE WORD HAS A NAME, 
HOPE HAS A NAME, 
JOY HAS A NAME, 
PEACE HAS A NAME, 
LOVE HAS A NAME AND THAT NAME IS JESUS CHRIST. 
PRAISE HIS NAME FOREVER!
