Musings from Graceland

I AM INTOXICATED

Yesterday, we spent a few hours in Jackson at WE WILL GO. We joined with our brothers and sisters in Christ as we praised the Lord and fought for the souls of those in desperate need of salvation and freedom. The time of worship, prayer, and service was truly intoxicating.


I love when He fills me up to overflowing as only He can. It is inebriating. I get drunk on His love and goodness but have none of the nasty day-after results that come from the highs of drugs or the drunkenness of alcohol. This kind of ecstasy is pure. It only builds up. It only draws me closer to the Lord and He is so, so good.

I am head over my heels, out of my mind, crazy in love with HIM!

The David Crowder Band expresses it beautifully with their INTOXICATING:

Intoxicating You are to me
Illuminating You are to see
Truly breathtaking You are to breathe
Sending my head swimming You are, You see

And I've lost my mind, I'm sure to find
Need to apologize for my
Lack of inhibition, for my belligerent condition
But with You this near I'm dizzy

Inebriating You are to me
Completely captivating You are to see
Sending my world spinning You are, You see

And now I find a blurry line
Here between You and I
Raise the cup, drink 'til I'm full
Sing 'til I can't, 'til my voice is gone
And my head is spinning

CHORUS:
La, la dee da
La dee da, dee da
Dee da da da
Hey la, la dee da
La dee da, dee da
Dee da da da

Illuminating You are to see
Truly breathtaking You are to breathe
Sending my head spinning You are, You see

And now I find a blurry line
Here between you and I
Raise the cup, drink 'til I'm full
Sing 'til I can't, 'til my voice is gone
And my head is spinning dizzy

If I'm out of my mind it's You, You
'Cause I'm crazy in love with You, You
Inebriated by You, You
'Cause I'm head over heels with You, You
