Reaching Lyrics

I was built afraid I share the blameI was born with these inconsistenciesYou made me come aliveI can feel You insideYour love's like a pained skyOverwhelms me every timeCHORUSAnd I'm reaching for YouArms stretched towards YouAll these things I bringAnd You pursue meAnd I surrenderTake, Lord, what You seeWhatever the cost I gained everything in lossIn the greatness of Your loveI compels me to give it upREPEAT CHORUSIn the light of what I seeThere is nothing good in meREPEAT CHORUSExplanation:"This is a song about not being complete. Everything in our lives-every circumstance and situation-becomes a stepping stone. The circumstances in our lives are not final results but means to higher purpose. 'Reaching' came from the thought that we are striving for the higher purpose. A.W. Tozer says, 'I can do no more justice to the awesome wonder-filled theme called love than a child can grasp a star. Still by reaching toward the star the child may call attention to it and even indicate the direction one might look to see it. So, as I stretch my heart toward the high, shining love of God, someone who has not before known about it may be encouraged to look up and have hope.' Phillip and I know that we have not come to any conclusions ourselves and we cannot ask people to look to us for answers." -Natalie
