Shane and Shane “In You”: Simple Gift Sunday

This post may contain affiliate links which won’t change your price but will share some commission.

We had some beautiful weather this week and the kids and I had fun watching the dogs roll around in the clover.

Such exuberance

and joy for the simple life.

For this week’s Simple Gift Sunday I wanted to share with you a song by Shane and Shane. I wasn’t familiar with them but I knew they were two friends, not father and son. Their music is beautifully intricate and acoustic. I hope you’ll take a few moments and know that “in You I find my rest.”

I sing for joy
In my remorse
A well within prosperity’s curse
That drowns the mighty oak of pride
But feeds the root of God inside.

In You
I find my rest
In You
I find my death
In You
I find my all and my emptiness
Somehow it all makes sense

In You I’m rich
When I’ve been made poor
Comfort found when I mourn
The prideful one You see from afar
Drawing near to low, broken hearts.

In You
I find my rest
In You
I find my death
In You
I find my all and my emptiness
But it all makes sense

Dear Marty
This is the first time I came across this song. Beautiful words and so true. It does make sense in all our brokenness, doesn’t it!
Blessings from Laura’s.
Mia
