Chrystal's Song

Not many know, I think, that the song Chrystal sang last Sunday after her talk at church, was actually written by her! She wrote the melody and the lyrics one time, just cos she felt like it, and then took it to Megan who added chords and a harmony.

For those who weren't there, Chrystal preached up a storm, establishing that righteousness is something God gives freely to everyone who believes in Jesus ("This righteousness from God comes through faith in Jesus Christ to all who believe." - Romans 3:22). Therefore, if you have faith in Christ, there is no person who is more righteous than another person, and there is no way for you to become more righteous by doing works - you are absolutely blameless and in total right standing with God.

After giving the talk, she sang this song:

Like a child I come,
Into your arms
of grace and mercy,

I want to know your touch,
I reach out to you,
and I know you’ll meet me

In my time of trial,
I’ll call out your name,
and I know you’ll hear me,

I rest in your vast love,
Eternal, unchanging God

Chorus
You are the light of my life,
I will bless you Lord,

You are the strength of my soul,
I will give my all

Never let me go

I was proud as punch - never knew she could write such an awesome song. Well done to you too, Tink.
