The Woman At His Feet by Yvonne
Have you ever laid at His feet in the middle of the night?
Crying bitter tears, wanting to give up this fight
Have you ever been so down to where you couldn't even lift your head?
Everyday become a burden and every night you would dread
You tried turning to the left, you tried turning to the right
Darkness all around you while reaching for the light
You've done all you can, feeling as though you wanna die
Waiting and waiting, but still God doesn't reply
Your soul is in turmoil and such despair
You're too weak to hope for even a breath of fresh air
You feel lifeless and your spirit is now broken
From the pain of life and by the words the enemy has spoken
In your heart you tell God I give up on this thing called life
All the hurt, the pain, the troubles and strife
That was the day He spoke a word that went straight to my heart
He said, "Daughter, the love I have for you not even death can keep us apart"
As I feel to my knees in the presence of my King
That's when His glory overtook me with healing in His wings
A voice like thunder and lightning shook me to my very core
Every burden was lifted, and the pain was no more
As I laid before Him, my Lord and my King
At that moment in my heart I knew I could withstand anything
He gave me strength, He gave me power and all authority
That night I knew this journey called life was not about me
From my eyes has fallen the scales of deceit
The woman that now stands before you
Is That Woman At His Feet!
