Tim's original worship song No. 2 ... You Are

I was very challenged on one of the Sundays when Joseph Ong preached (btw, for those of you who doesn't know, he's my cousin). If you ever want to have a no nonsense, fiery, energetic, full of revelation, all inspiring message ... well, invite this young man to preach on your Sunday service.

Anyways, the message was about knowing your birthright. He touched on the prodigal son and he said something really interesting. The prodigal son came back, and in my own words, his dad slaughtered the finest 'cow', gave him a ring and threw him a party. The oldest son got mad, and told his dad that he did not even get so much of a goat slaughtered for him. Joe said all the younger bro. got was, in my own words again, a dead cow, a ring and a party. The oldest has rights to everything his dad owned. Yet all he could think of was a goat. Joe challenged the congregation, 'Do we really know our birthright? Why are there so many of us still asking our Father in heaven for goats when all that is His has has been promised to us? Why are we stuck with a slave's mentality when we have been made royal through Christ? Hmmm ... 

So on Monday I picked up my guitar and started pondering on the word and the revelation behind it and wrote this song. Remembering my birthright, remembering who I am in Him and who He is in me. And I had a passionate time worshiping God with this song. Praise the Lord!
