Perfect

“Perfect” by Flyleaf

Sick of circling the same road
Sick of bearing the guilt
Open the windows to cool off
Heat pours in instead

Perfect in weakness.
I’m only perfect in just your strength alone

All my efforts to clean me.
Leave me putrid and filthy
How can you look at me,
When I can’t stand myself?

I’m tired to be honest… I’m nobody.

Perfect in weakness.
I’m only running in just your strength alone.
Perfect in weakness.
I’m only running in just your strength alone.

I tried to kill you. You tried to save me.
You save me. You save me. You save me.

Perfect in weakness.
I’m only running in just your strength alone.
Perfect in weakness.
I’m only running in just your strength alone

 

 

 

2 Corinthians 12:9:  But he said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.”  Therefore I will boast all the more gladly about my weaknesses, so that Christ’s power may rest on me.

 

This song really hits home.  I’m so thankful that Christ’s strength moves in on my weaknesses.
