Sweetly Broken, Wholly Surrendered

The song below by Jeremy Riddle, describes where I am currently. I don't know that I understood this song at a heart level until recently. I am in a season of brokenness. Being broken is only sweet when you are on your knees wholly surrendered to the Triune God. 

I don't know that there is a lot to add, but I have been contemplating/meditating on this concept these past few weeks as this is where they Lord has me.

Enjoy!

Sweetly Broken by Jeremy Riddle

To the cross I look, to the cross I cling
Of its suffering I do drink
Of its work I do sing

For on it my Savior both bruised and crushed
Showed that God is love
And God is just

Chorus:
At the cross You beckon me
You draw me gently to my knees, and I am
Lost for words, so lost in love,
I’m sweetly broken, wholly surrendered

What a priceless gift, undeserved life
Have I been given
Through Christ crucified

You’ve called me out of death
You’ve called me into life
And I was under Your wrath
Now through the cross I’m reconciled

Chorus:

In awe of the cross I must confess
How wondrous Your redeeming love and
How great is Your faithfulness
