Redevoted To You

This is something that came to me suddenly this morning
But being a very obedient girl,I went to do my revision for exams first
And when I finally finished Chem,this is what I did(:
Give me half the chance
I'll make you understand
That what I got to give
Is so much more than this
Than you'll ever know
The stanza is from the song 'One Better' by Aaron Carter
I used to listen to it alot
But now it's music fasting period
Was kinda surprised this came but anyway
It's not a Christian song but it sort of got me thinking about chances in general
Each time we trust God,unconsciously we think that we're taking a chance
Think about it: God's the best chance we've ever got
God's been taking chances too: ON US
God took a chance on us when He sacrificed His Son
He could've chosen not to take this chance
But He did
We are tiny people on a tiny island on a tiny planet
There were greater things God could've chosen to bother about but He chose us
That's the biggest chance anyone has ever taken on you, on me and on the rest of mankind
And after sacrificing,God took more chances on us
Time and again, He took chances on our empty promises,knowing that it'd all fall apart
He keeps throwing chances and keeps believing and trusting us
God's so amazing
It was one huge chance and there were many more where that came from
This was meant to be a love song (duh)
But it got me thinking:
#1: Is what I have to give just this or more?
#2: God's taken so many chances on us,regardless of our repeated failure.Do we have that right to even say we're taking a tiny chance,let alone a big chance?

Redevoted To You

I've made so many promises
Each time I give them all up
I know nothing's really lasted

And You gave me the chance
To be one of Your own
When I walk with You
I know I'll never be alone
Now I'm seizing that chance
Never letting go of You, God
Dedicating my life to You
Lord,I'm redevoted to You

I can't thank You enough
For all it is You've done
I know it's always been for me

And You gave me the chance
To be one of Your own
When I walk with You
I know I'll never be alone
Now I'm seizing that chance
Chasing after You, God
Dedicating my life to You
Lord, I'm redevoted to You

It's always been about me
It's never been about You
Now it's gonna be all for You

You took a chance on me
Made me Your very own
As I'm walking with You
Lord, I don't feel alone
Seizing this chance you gave
Chasing You with all I've got
I'm making my promise real
Lord, I'm redevoted to You
