Pushing through the dirt

I absolutely love listening to music. I enjoy the music itself but I really love the lyrics of songs. Certain lyrics will stick out to me at moments I need them it seems. I guess that's like anything else in life. God uses different things at different times. Mike leads the worship band at our church now and introduced this song awhile back but just recently it hit me. I am sure most of you have heard it but I wanted to share the lyrics with you.

David Crowder Band - Song Wholly Yours - Album A Collision

I am full of earth
You are Heaven’s worth
I am stained with dirt, prone to depravity
You are everything that is bright and clean,
the antonym of me
You are divinity
But a certain sign of grace is this
From the broken earth flowers
Come up pushing through the dirt

Chorus:You are holy, holy, holy
All Heaven cries, holy, holy God
You are holy, holy, holy
I want to be holy like You are

You are everything that is bright and clean
And You’re covering me with Your majesty
And the truest sign of grace was this
From wounded hands redemption fell down, liberating man

Chorus:But the harder I try the more clearly can I feel
The depth of our fall and the weight of it all
And so this might could be the most impossible thing
Your grandness in me making me clean
Glory, hallelujahGlory, glory, hallelujah

We are simply pushing through dirt and only God's grandness can make us clean.
How amazing is that?
