Do You Know the Way You Move Me?

This song by Cory Asbury has been unbelievably powerful for me this week.  Listening to the song and just letting your heart soak in these word's of God is moving, and I urge you to find time to do it. But if you don't have time to listen (it's 20 minutes), or can't connect to the link, or whatever, read the lyrics.

Listen to "Do You Know the Way You Move Me?"

Do you know how you caught My eye? In the secret place where you chose to die. 

My beloved, do you know the way you move Me?

Cause I see every time you lay down those other things for me. And I see every time you seek My face, beloved one. I see every movement of your heart towards Me, I do. I see every little movement of your heart towards Me. Though you’re weak, My beloved, I see your love. Though it’s small, My beloved, I see your heart, I see your love. Though it ain’t much, My beloved one, I see the way that you want Me, that you need Me, that you gotta have Me. I see it. I see every little desire, every little passion, every little piece of hunger, every little thing, I see it all. Nothing goes unseen from My eye, nothing goes unseen from My gaze. Every time you look towards Me, I see it. Every time you stare at me, I see it. I see your love, how small it may be, I see it all, My beloved one. Every time you look My way, I see it. Every time you stare at Me, I see it. Though it feels a little weak sometimes. Though it feels a little broken sometimes. I see every second, every little glance, every little glance My way, I see it,. And I love it. I love you just where you are. I love you. Listen, My beloved one. Every little glance towards me, I see it. And every little time you look at Me, I see it. Every movement of your heart, I see it

Do you know the way you move Me?

Do you know the way you undo My heart?

My beloved, oh the one that I love. Every sacrifice you make, every time you say no again. I see it. Do you know the way you move Me? You move Me. You’re beautiful just the way you are. You’re beautiful my love, my joy, my fair one, my bride. I love you, right where you are. I love you. I’ll never stop. I love you. I’m so in love with you, My bride. I’m so in love with you, My fair one. With every single glance, with every movement of your will, with every decision that you make, I’m undone. I love you with an everlasting love. I’m not disappointed in you, I’m not angry with you. I love you. So don’t hide your face from Me. I’ll break all shame, I’ll break all condemnation. It’s gone. You’re free. It’s gone, you’re free. You ravish Me. I’m undone. I’m not disappointed, I’m not angry. I’M IN LOVE WITH YOU. You ravish Me, I’m in love with you. 

Do you know how you’ve caught My eye? In the secret place where you chose to die. 

You chose to lay it all down, you chose to follow Me. You chose to take up that cross day after day. You've ravished My heart, you have. Just one glance of your eye. My heart is undone. Every time you look at Me. Every day that you don’t give up, that you don’t let go, that you don’t let down. My heart, it’s undone, My heart is ravished.

Do you know the way you move Me?

Cuz I saw when you gave it all up, I did. I saw when you gave it all up. You passed up opportunity after opportunity. Just to seek Me, just to find Me, just to love Me a little longer. I saw it. And it moved My heart. Don’t think those little sacrifices go unnoticed. Don’t think those little times go unnoticed. When you think I’m not looking at you, I saw it. I saw when you gave up everything to follow Me, I did, and I’m pleased, and I’m proud. And I’m not mostly disappointed, I’m not mostly mad, and I’m not mostly sad. I’m happy with you. And I love you, My beloved one.

Do you know the way you move Me?

Cause I saw it when you left your friends behind, and I saw it when you left your family behind. And I saw it when you gave up everything just to follow Me, just so you could love Me a little bit more. And I saw it when you gave up everything, you let go of everything, just to find Me. I saw it. And I’m pleased, and I’m proud, I love you, thank you. It really means something to Me that you did it all. It really means something to Me that you gave it all up. And it’s not for nothing. I’ll meet you there in the longing. It’s not for nothing. I saw it.

Do you know the way you move Me?

Cause I saw it when you took the narrow road. I saw it when you took the road less traveled. I saw it when you took that narrow road. It’s a little bit lonely sometimes, I saw it. I saw it when you left your friends and took that narrow road with love. I saw it. And I love you. And I see your heart, that you want Me. I see it.
