For the last month or so I've been so blessed to be a part of a Bible study with a great group of ladies. We've been going through the wonderful book "Seeking Him" by Nancy Leigh DeMoss. The heart of the study is about personal revival. This poem came about as a result of the last couple of weeks' studies. Such powerful stuff. Broken before Jesus truly is a beautiful place to be.
"The Most Beautiful Place To Be"
At the feet of Jesus a woman wept
Washing His feet with her tears
Broken before Him, she kissed Him and knew
She had no reason to fear
Though she was a sinner, in Jesus' great love
Her soul had been set free
Broken before Him
Down on her knees
The most beautiful place to be
At the foot of the cross a woman wept
As Jesus suffered and bled
The body of Christ, broken and torn
Her precious Savior now dead
Though she was a sinner, in Jesus' great love
Her soul had been set free
Broken before Him
Down on her knees
The most beautiful place to be
At the foot of my bed, I wept tears of grief
Repenting of all my sin
Humbled and broken by mercy and grace
Changed by His cleansing within
Though I am a sinner, in Jesus' great love
My soul has been set free
Broken before Him
Down on my knees
The most beautiful place to be
