Open Hands…… Matt Papa- Lyrics<\/em><\/strong><\/div>\n
\n

Verse 1:
\nTo give unselfishly, to love the least of these
\nJesus i’m learning how to live with open hands
\nAll of these treasures that i hold will never satisfy my soul
\nJesus i lay it at your throne with open hands<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

chorus:
\nAnd i lift my hands open wide let the whole world see
\nhow u’ve loved, how you died, how you set me free!
\nFree at last i surrender all i am with open hands
\nwith open hands<\/p>\n

Verse 2:
\nTo finally let go of my plans
\nThese earthly kingdoms built of sand
\nJesus at your cross i stand with open hands<\/p>\n

chorus:
\nAnd i lift my hands open wide let the whole world see
\nhow u’ve loved, how you died, how you set me free!
\nFree at last i surrender all i am with open hands
\nwith open hands
\nYou took the nails and you wore the crown
\nYou hung your head, your love poured out
\nYou took my place and you paid the price
\nSo Jesus now i will give my life!!!!!!!!!<\/p>\n

chorus:
\nAnd i lift my hands open wide let the whold world see
\nhow u’ve loved, how you died, how you set me free!
\nFree at last i surrender all i am with open hands
\nJesus i lift my hands open wide let the whole world see
\nhow u’ve loved, how you died, how you set me free!
\nFree at last i surrender all i am with open hands with open hands<\/p>\n

with open hands
\nwith open hands
\nwith open hands<\/p>\n

\nAre you ready to be poured out as an offering? It is an act of your will, not your emotions. Tell<\/em> God you are ready to be offered as a sacrifice for Him. Then accept the consequences as they come, without any complaints, in spite of what God may send your way. God sends you through a crisis in private, where no other person can help you. From the outside your life may appear to be the same, but the difference is taking place in your will. Once you have experienced the crisis in your will, you will take no thought of the cost when it begins to affect you externally. If you don\u2019t deal with God on the level of your will first, the result will be only to arouse sympathy for yourself.\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

“Bind the sacrifice with cords to the horns of the altar” (\u00a0Psalm 118:27<\/a> ). You must be willing to be placed on the altar and go through the fire; willing to experience what the altar represents-burning, purification, and separation for only one purpose-the elimination of every desire and affection not grounded in or directed toward God. But you<\/em> don\u2019t eliminate it, God does. You “bind the sacrifice . . . to the horns of the altar” and see to it that you don\u2019t wallow in self-pity once the fire begins. After you have gone through the fire, there will be nothing that will be able to trouble or depress you. When another crisis arises, you will realize that things cannot touch you as they used to do. What fire lies ahead in your life?<\/p>\n

Tell God you are ready to be poured out as an offering, and God will prove Himself to be all you ever dreamed He would be.<\/p>\n

In the “Upside Down” world of His Kingdom, \u00a0We get our freedom when we surrender all. \u00a0As opposed to “normal” = \u00a0carnal thinking which says, “I’ll do some things for God but I’ll hang on to my freedom, \u00a0I’ll retain the final executive choices about my life.” \u00a0 Total Surrender is the place of Maximum Freedom – because if we’ve really surrendered it, \u00a0we have nothing left to lose or protect \u00a0DJR<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
