Nightlights Lyrics


Be Thou exalted over my reputation,
'Cause applause is a poor form of soul medication.And I've tried it for years, but my symptoms remain:
Still fretting the day that they'll misplace my name,
Still selling my soul for American fame.
Treating the promotion of Jesus like a well oiled machine,
Advancing His kingdom just to snag some acclaim.Now, I'm both comforted and haunted that it isn't just me though.
I see a nation of people needing to feed their own egos,
Parading status like steeples.
Do we not know it's evil to love ourselves more than both God and His people?But see, here's where you turn this poem on it's head,
'Cause the greatest among us came as servant instead,
And You humbled Yourself to the point of Your death.
Apparently love for the Father's glory runs red.

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Christian music's Jason Mraz & James Morrison. A male version of India Arie. He's got soul, he's got a bit of jazz, he touches on pop and rock and he challenges you in your own walk with Jesus every step of the way. This young man has a lot to say, and I suspect that over the years, we're going to hear much more from him. Current Location: Houston, Texas
