This Is The Son
Words and Music by Jeff Viol
Today I woke up thinking bout who I am now, and who I wanna be
Ever have a time you wish that you could have back erase all that pain and grief
I’ve done many things I’m not proud of and it really makes me think
Of the Lord my God I represent as my heart begins to sink and they must think
Chorus:
Where is the Son you say that you believe, the lamp that lights your path?
Where is the Son you claim illuminates your soul, the bread that makes you whole?
It’s a moment like this the plight of the world feels squarely on my shoulders
Then I remember all that he has done, this is the Son, this is the Son
You can’t take back the spoken word, and a thoughtless act is like using a megaphone
Speaking volumes yeah well your song is playing how does the chorus ring?
When I fall short my guilt tells me it’s hopeless here to figure
Till I’m reminded we are fallen but Jesus love is bigger still they must think
Chorus
Oh so many times I’ve fallen short of the standard set before me
So many times my light is dim and pale
So many times I’ve detoured on the road of good intentions whoa is me yeah
I’m not yet what I will be yeah
So my prayer is now to trust in how you’re changing me a little bit every day
A little less of me and a little more, a little bit more of you
The key you see is not so much what the world does see of me
It’s the new life springing out of what you planted deep in me, His love is free
Chorus
