Wrestling Angels (melody only)
Taken from Genesis 32, Jacob returning to meet his brother Esau. Unfinished.
I'm really just a lyricist who is looking to team up with a great composer to create songs that glorify our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Story behind the song
I think this was my personal theme song for 2008, a reminder to myself not to let go of God because he had blessings waiting for me. I really love the verse Genesis 32:28 Then the man said, "Your name will no longer be Jacob, but Israel, because you have struggled with God and with men and have overcome."
Lyrics
On my way down this road you are paving
I can look back on all you have done
Now you're leading me onward into the uncertain
I don't know what will be to come
I'm afraid of what might be to come
Chorus:
Tonight I am wrestling angels
So I sing to awaken the dawn
I won't let go till you bless me
Without you I just can't go on
I am unworthy of all of your kindness
How you multiply all I can do
So I will hold true to the promise you gave me
And give all that I have to you
I offer all I am to you
Chorus
Bridge:
Israel, Israel, we will struggle and then overcome
Israel, Israel, we will see God's face light up the sun
Chorus
Tag:
Without you I just can't go on
Lord, without you I just can't go on
