Shaun Groves Album: Invitation to Eavesdrop Track: Move Me
Move Me Lyrics
Words and music by Shaun Groves
My cup is never empty My eyes are never dry I'd be drunk by now if Selfishness were wine Seems like a million years That I've been standing here Holding on to all that holds me down
Chorus: Come and move me In a holy dance Through my circumstance Come and move me From my hiding place Into Your embrace Where the whole human race sees You Move me
Let the sun burn brighter I'll run into Your shade Dip the sky in darkness I'll cry out for Your day Use bitter and the sweet To move my frozen feet Far beyond all that holds me down
(Chorus)
I know it's true When I'm destitute You come running to me But sometimes I believe You simply
Story Behind The Song: I don't claim to have God's providence all figured out, but this I know: God has used both the good and bad, the bitter and sweet things of life to make me more like Him. One day when I felt stuck, like I had stopped maturing spiritually I prayed the scariest prayer ever. Summed up by this song, it was basically this: God use whatever it takes, pleasant or not, to move me into the center of Your will for my life. (Jonah 2:1-10)
