Here, Needtobreathe has written a song about Jesus in the garden before His arrest. The lyrics bring pause to consider what Jesus went through. Jesus put the mission of saving sinners before His own wants and needs. The chorus brings application to us. Is it our desire to please God in all that we do?
Verses for Consideration:
Matthew 26:39 ESV
And going a little farther he fell on his face and prayed, saying, “My Father, if it be possible, let this cup pass from me; nevertheless, not as I will, but as you will.”
Luke 12:50 ESV
I have a baptism to be baptized with, and how great is my distress until it is accomplished!
Lyrics:
Won't you take this cup from me Cause fear has stolen all my sleep If tomorrow means my death I pray you'll save their souls with it Let the songs I sing Bring joy to you Let the words I say profess my love Let the notes I choose Be your favorite tune Father let my heart be after you In this hour of doubt I see But who I am is not just me So give me strength to die myself So love can live to tell the tale Let the songs I sing Bring joy to you Let the words I say profess my love Let the notes I choose Be your favorite tune Father let my heart be after you Father let my heart be... For you Let the songs I sing Bring joy to you Let the words I say profess my love Let the notes I choose Be your favorite tune Father let my heart be after you
