A beautiful song

Matt Odegaard put this song on our prelude cd last week and I have thought about it ever since. The lyrics and the music are so beautiful. If you can, try and download it some where (the musician who wrote & performs this is Leeland). Here are the words:

"Carried to the Table"

Wounded and forsaken I was shattered by the fall
Broken and forgotten
Feeling lost and all alone
Summoned by the King
Into the Master’s courts
Lifted by the Savior
And cradled in His arms

I was carried to the table
Seated where I don’t belong
Carried to the table
Swept away by His love
And I don’t see my brokenness anymore
When I’m seated at the table of the Lord
I’m carried to the table
The table of the Lord

Fighting thoughts of fear
And wondering why He called my name
Am I good enough to share this cup
This world has left me lame
Even in my weakness
The Savior called my name
In His Holy presence
I’m healed and unashamed

You carried me, my God
You carried me

It is so good to be carried sometimes.
