Sometimes a song can break through your logical brain and speak straight to your heart. I’m sure there is some theology or psychology behind it but I don’t need to know that…all I know is that this song is breaking through for me right now.
I could pick the song apart and explain why each bit is hitting a nerve but instead I’ll just say this… “Come with me, let’s take it to Jesus” is plural and invitational. I don’t have to do this alone…I also don’t need to have all the answers – we can go together and take everything to Jesus.
Take it to Jesus by Anna Golden (Ft. Kari Jobe)
I have no idea what to say right now
How could any words ease the pain right now
Something like this will never make sense never make sense at all
I have no idea what to say right now
If you wanna come you can stay for awhile
I know a place we could go right now
Pack all your pieces, broken and bleeding, all of your grief and doubt
I know a place we could go right now
When your questions don’t have answers and you just can’t understand it
When your mind just won’t stop running and the tears just keep on coming
You don’t have to explain it
He hears you before you can speak
Come with me, let’s take it to Jesus
This is the place you can rest for a while
If you need to just fall apart
Lay down your worry, he’s not in a hurry, take all the time you need
This is the place you can rest for a while
When my questions had no answers and I couldn’t understand it
When my mind wouldn’t stop running and the tears just kept on coming
Didn’t have to explain it
He heard me before I could speak
Even now, I still take it to Jesus
