Surround (Now the Light)

Let the Lord surround me,
   like the air He made.
In this worship one is free,
   practicing that he's saved.
On the Stone I choose to fall
   rather than under to be crushed.
To the Word heed the call;
   the Spirit's wind has rushed.

Frame me, Lord, with Your truth;
   corner me in Your Word.
Let fruit from You be the proof,
   just as I have heard.
I won't move until I am moved;
   I await to hear Your voice.
In this plea be so proved;
   I have made this choice.

“Come, My child, surround Me;
   in your flesh I have made.
Worship Me, and be free;
   I love the truth: you're saved.
I'm the Stone where you fell,
   now humbled and now broken.
No longer destined, but free from hell;
   My Gospel has thus spoken.

“Now I frame you in My truth;
   free you with My word.
Fruit of repentance is the proof,
   just as you have heard.
So now move, I have moved;
   I have heard your voice.
Follow Me, and be proved,
   justified in your choice.”
