One of my favorite albums from
Steve Camp is
Justice. There is such a call to non-conformity and to live righteously before God. The past few days, this song has been "ringing" around in my head.
How easily Jesus is forgotten amid the comfort of my life
How the flames become a flicker, and faith a brilliant disguise
Our Sundays become a holiday, they're an empty exercise
And the cost of real devotion seems so foreign to my life
Chorus:
Oh, to gladly risk it all, oh to be faithful to His call
Abandoned to grace yet anchored in His love
Living dangerously in the hands of God
Our Lord He is a hiding place, His hold is strong and sure
Though the storms may rage around me in His love I stand secure
So let me live like I believe it, and though my faith is prone to fail
Though I cower under trial, by His grace I shall prevail
Chorus:
Oh, to gladly risk it all, oh to be faithful to His call
Abandoned to grace yet anchored in His love
Living dangerously in the hands of God
Spoken:
There's
safety in complacency, but God is calling us out of our comfort zone
into a life of complete surrender to the cross. To live dangerously is
not to live recklessly but righteously. And it is because of God's
radical grace for us that we can risk living a life of radical obedience
for Him.
You've got to walk on for the Lord He walks with us
You've got to walk on though it costs you everything
You've got to pray on
Spoken:
For
the eyes of the Lord move to and fro throughout the earth, that He may
strongly support those whose hearts are completely His. (2 Chronicles
16:9 NASB)
Chorus:
Oh, to gladly risk it all, oh to be faithful to His call
Abandoned to grace yet anchored in His love
Living dangerously in the hands of God
Living dangerously
Are you living dangerously
Oh we ought to be living dangerously in the hands of God
