Story behind the song
It's amazing how many "heroes" in scripture have written about their failures to meet God's righteous requirements. Maybe it's because we all fall short and can never attain to our own righteousness. That's why I still marvel to this day how a holy God can love a wretched sinner such as I. It is truly a mystery and those "secret rooms" that all fo us have that only God knows about can sometimes make us feel so unworthy we don't even approach the throne of God. Yet God who is a jealous God, patiently waits for us to allow Him entrance to all of our rooms so He can fully possess our hearts. What is it that makes my heart turn from you, oh God?
Lyrics
I fall down
By Steve Kim copyright 2006
Grace to grace
Mercies anew
You hear my cry, but I can’t speak.
Jealously
You’re wanting me
Your love reveals a mystery.
Chorus: ‘Cause I fall down, before you
And I have fallen down…
‘Cause I fall down, before you
And I have fallen down…
Secret rooms
Lock and key
Conflict inside I can’t concede
Yet patiently
You wait for me
What makes my heart turn from you?
Chorus: ‘Cause I fall down, before you
And I have fallen down…
‘Cause I fall down, before you
And I have fallen down…
Patiently
You wait for me
With open arms, embracing me…
