In the 6th part of this long and fascinating Psalm, Chad looks at spiritual hunger, our need to rely on God rather than ourselves or our circumstances. He speaks of the wineskin analogy and explains how it applies to us daily. Rebekah Caggegi sings "My Soul Belongs to You".

Lyrics to Psalm 119 week 6 - My Soul Belongs to You

If your law hadn’t been my delight,

I would have perished in my affliction

But my soul belongs to You

Through the pitfalls and persecution

 

I am like a wine skin

In the burning smoke

Shriveled up and useless 

And treated like a joke

 

Pour the wine 

The wine of Your grace

Into this thirsty soul

Into this thirsty soul

I know, my soul,  belongs to You

 

Forever O Lord Your word

Is firmly fixed in the heavens

Your faithfulness forever

Is enduring to all generations

 

I am like a wine skin

In the burning smoke

Shriveled up and useless 

And treated like a joke

 

Pour the wine 

The wine of Your grace

Into this thirsty soul

Into this thirsty soul

I know, my soul,  belongs to You.

 

You call me by your Name

You call me as Your own

You call me to Your Son

And carry me

Carry me to Your throne
