Jeremy Camp Album: Beyond Measure Track: Beyond Measure
Beyond Measure Lyrics
The fog has finally cleared to see, The beautiful life you've given me To feel the breeze of my newborn's gentle breath With one to walk hand in hand, To share this life that you have planned It's like a storybook with dreams That are meant to see every next step is an extraordinary scene
[CHORUS] I know that I've been, Given more than beyond measure, I come alive when, I see beyond my fears I know that I've been given more than earthly treasure, I come alive when I've broken down and given you control
I've faced a great tragedy, But have seen the works of what you bring A display of faith that you give, I don't know if I will ever understand The depth of what it is you've done inside, But I know that I will won't find any worth apart from you
Everything that I have Has been given so unselfishly And shown that even when I don't deserve You always show the fullness of your love
Song Description: 'Being the title track for the album, this song pretty much explains what God has been showing me in a condensed version. I think it is easy to get so busy that you can forget to stop and realize all the amazing things in your life. It is easy to focus on the negative, and not truly grasp what the Lord has laid out before you. One day I realized I had been in that place, and found myself on my face before the Lord. I thought about all the powerful things that have happened in my life, and my beautiful family, and was overwhelmed with joy in my heart. When we try to hold on to certain things, it shows that we haven't given complete trust over to the Lord. In that we find fears, worries and doubts that creep in. When we finally break down and give him control, there is a peace that passes all understanding. In Ephesians 3:20 it says" Now unto him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us." I'm so grateful for God's grace in my life.' - Jeremy Camp
