Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
To deserve the love You've give me
Always been by my side
And watching over me
I am grateful
So grateful
Made me strong when i was weak
Oh Lord
You are worthy to be praised
All my life I've always wondered
But, I always had this hunger
But to You I surrender
All to thee
Like an empty cup
You filled me
Where would I be?
Would I be?
What would I've been?
It wasnt for Your grace
Oh God
Your Mercy
That saved me
Who am I?
To deserve the love You've give me
Always been by my side
And watching over me
I am grateful
So grateful
Made me strong when i was weak
Oh Lord
Oh Lord
You are worthy to be praised
I lift my voice to the heavens
Bursting out to worship
Singing songs of victory
All glory be to thee
Oh ho oh
Glory glory
Oh ho ooooh
All glory

I’m 19 years old, it’s so hard to be a Christian teenager and many teenagers don’t believe in Jesus but i want them to believe in Jesus I’ll pray for them everyday and I’ll keep my faith forever 💗💗🙌🙌
@phylisschakanyuka8295
Not a teenager anymore but I can relate. So many young people don’t believe in Jesus but we can all do our part in sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ in our own capacity without being ashamed of it. And we can do this only be relying on God and not our own strength.

The Lord Jesus keep you in perfect peace. Our hope & strength is in Elohim alone.

@@sirkhojTrue. You don't have to be. You have free will. And you could've chosen to scroll past but you didn't; nothing's random.
However, we're told to share the Gospel of Yeshua because He's the only Way to the Father, the Truth & the Life. Salvation is only in Him cause we could never have paid our debt to God for breaking His law. Yeshua came as our perfect Sacrifice and now we have hope in Him for eternal life.
Once we find this hope, we're instructed to share it. Yahweh is patient, merciful and wants every single person to be saved. Of course, as I said, you have free will. But there are consequences of disbelief cause you as a human being can't save or justify yourself when Messiah comes to judge. Believe in Yeshua HaMashiach as Lord and Saviour, repent and turn to Him and you'll be saved. God forgives and gives mercy, redemption and rest to everyone who comes to Him genuinely with a contrite heart.
Yahweh loves you. Ask Him to reveal Himself to you, pray and follow Him cause He cares. Good day.

The best advice I have gotten was to be so salty that you make those who meet you thirsty.
In other words don't just preach the sermon live it so no one unless totally lost, can resist a life well lived without hypocrisy.
