Shaking Foundations

from Ephathah by Natalie Kendel

/

about

A song about the apostle Paul; how it's possible to be dead-wrong about things one is perfectly certain of, and how Jesus is willing to interrupt us on the road to our own ruin and error.

lyrics

His eyes were straight, his vision set
He'd teach them a lesson they'd never forget
He knew his path without a doubt
There was no way he could be wrong
when he'd believe it for so long

The Roman, Jew, and the Pharisee
Rode down the road on a hunting spree
But from the heavens shone a light
he heard a name that he had chased
Now Paul beheld him face to face

Jesus shake our foundations
Break us into your mold
Stop us in our tracks, Lord
You're calling us to walk a better road

His eyes were blind but his heart now saw
A different master, a different call
To bear the Gospel of the Cross
to strangers stumbling in the night
For he had seen the Saviour's light

Jesus, shake our foundations
Break us into your mold
Stop us in our tracks, Lord
You're calling us to walk a better road
Jesus, change our vision
Let us see the world through your eyes
For though we have our own plans
You have something much better in mind

How often the plans that He has for us
Turn out to be far better than our own
And he can turn every sinner into
A warrior of Christ

Jesus, shake my foundations
Break me into your mold
Stop me in our tracks, Lord
You're calling me to walk a better road
Jesus, change our vision
Let us see the world through your eyes
For though I have my own plans
You've got something much better in mind
