Wonderful, merciful Savior
Precious Redeemer and Friend
Who would have thought that a Lamb
Could rescue the souls of men
Oh, You rescue the souls of men
Counselor, Comforter, Keeper
Spirit we long to embrace
You offer hope when our hearts have
Hopelessly lost our way
Oh, we've hopelessly lost the way
You are the One that we praise
You are the One we adore
You give the healing and grace
Our hearts always hunger for
Oh, our hearts always hunger for
Almighty, infinite Father
Faithfully loving Your own
Here in our weakness You find us
Falling before Your throne
Oh, we're falling before Your throne
You are the One that we praise
You are the One we adore
You give the healing and grace
Our hearts always hunger for
Oh, our hearts always hunger for
You are the One that we praise
You are the One we adore
You give the healing and grace
Our hearts always hunger for
Oh, our hearts always hunger for
"Wonderful, Merciful Savior" by Selah is a beautiful and powerful song that captures the essence of God's love and grace. It is a song that speaks to the depths of our souls and reminds us of the incredible sacrifice that Jesus made for us.
The lyrics of the song paint a picture of who God is to us - a wonderful and merciful Savior, a precious Redeemer and Friend. It reminds us that despite our sin and brokenness, God extends His love and forgiveness to us through the sacrifice of Jesus, the Lamb who was slain for our sins.
One scripture verse that relates to the theme of the song is Romans 5:8, which says, "But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us." This verse reminds us that even in our darkest moments, when we were far from God, He loved us enough to send His Son to die for us. It is through His mercy and grace that we are able to find forgiveness and redemption.
Another scripture verse that resonates with the song is Hebrews 4:16, which says, "Let us then approach God's throne of grace with confidence, so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need." This verse reminds us that God's throne is a place of mercy and grace, where we can find forgiveness and help in our times of need. It is a place where we can find comfort and healing, just as the song lyrics describe God as our Counselor, Comforter, and Keeper.
The song also speaks to the longing of our hearts to be close to God, to experience His presence and to receive His love and grace. It reminds us that God is the One we praise and adore, the One who satisfies the hunger in our hearts. It is a reminder that our ultimate fulfillment and satisfaction can only be found in Him.
One of the things that I love about this song is its simplicity and the way it encourages us to come before God as we are, in our weakness and brokenness. It reminds us that God is faithful in His love for us and that He is always ready to receive us with open arms. It is a reminder that we don't have to have it all together or pretend to be perfect, because God's love and grace are more than sufficient for us.
As I listen to this song, I am reminded of the incredible love and sacrifice that Jesus made for me. It is a reminder that I am not deserving of God's love and yet, He chose to extend His grace to me. It is a reminder of the hope and healing that can be found in His presence, and the comfort and peace that comes from knowing Him.
In conclusion, "Wonderful, Merciful Savior" by Selah is a powerful song that captures the depth of God's love and grace. It is a reminder of the incredible sacrifice that Jesus made for us and the mercy and forgiveness that He extends to us. It is a call to come before God with open hearts, knowing that He is faithful to receive us and to meet us in our weakness.
