Who Am I (Casting Crowns cover)

Who Am I (Casting Crowns co... Lyrics & Chords

This is one of the most meaningful gospel songs I’ve heard in recent times. It is by Casting Crowns. My wife introduced me to this song and this goes out to her as she loves it.

Every time I listen to this song and immerse myself in the lyrics, it moves me. To sum up the song, it basically says that even though we are sinners and full of faults, the Lord still understands our pain and suffering and hears our prayers because we are his creation and we belong to him.

When you listen, I urge you all to go through the lyrics as well (especially the chorus) as only then will you appreciate the true beauty of this song.

Lyrics:

Who am I, that the Lord of all the earth
Would care to know my name
Would care to feel my hurt
Who am I, that the Bright and Morning Star
Would choose to light the way
For my ever wandering heart

Not because of who I am
But because of what You’ve done
Not because of what I’ve done
But because of who You’re

Chorus:
I am a flower quickly fading
Here today and gone tomorrow
A wave tossed in the ocean
A vapor in the wind
Still You hear me when I’m calling
Lord, You catch me when I’m falling
And You’ve told me who I am
I am Yours, I am Yours

Who Am I, that the eyes that see my sin
Would look on me with love and watch me rise again
Who Am I, that the voice that calmed the sea
Would call out through the rain
And calm the storm in me

I am Yours
Whom shall I fear
Whom shall I fear
’Cause I am Yours
I am Yours

Have no words to express what I felt when I listened to this

A rating will never justify the feel you have brought through in this, but I still gave it 5/5, since that’s the least I can do apart from adding it to my favs :)

Very sublime….

Cheers,

George my dear…. Thanks and thanks a lot for this excellent piece of work.

Hey! my dear …. falling short of words to express my gratitude for singing this song.
You engulfed me with my childhood days where i did spend more of my education in convents and kept visiting the Church always. Still, i do love the Lord so much …. he taught me to share and care for others. The LORD is our BEST FRIEND.

Always wanted to listen something from you….
How true!!

He will never forsake us!
The Lord is my shepherd
I shall not want anything
I shall not fear
He is the brightest star
An unblemished lamb sacrificed on the cross
He saves our souls
He suffered for our sins
He will reward us with eternal life
We are saved because of His grace
not out of our merits
I Love my LORD SOOOO much:)-

He says so sweetly … “I am the way the life and the truth”.

VERY HAPPY TO LISTEN TO THIS GOSPEL MUSIC.
THIS LYRICS CARRIES DEEP MEANINGS …. HOPE EVERYONE DOES ENJOY AS MUCH AS I DO.
PERSONALLY EXPERIENCED LOT OF MIRACLES IN MY LIFE:)- LOVE U GEORGY AND LOVE U LORD!!

Can we ever rate such beautiful songs ?
More than a 5 with a smile and Georgy
U deserve all the stars in the sky!!
Going on listening to this unable to comment.

Thanks a lot for sharing and GOD BLESS YOU ALWAYS.

MUSIC is the language of the soul!

Subbu said

Yes George,thanks for the effort….it is so touchy and moving……small nit picky doubt……you sing ‘wave caught in the ocean’,the first time and tossed the second time….which one is right?caught in the ocean sounds more apt to me……enjoyed it immensely.

Subbu.

George…. Just came here out of curiosity.

Something about God and nice lyrics. You have done a good job of explaining bit too. Very nice. Music like this brings some calmness at least for a change else we listen to only Cine music always.
anyway frankly many in this generation except for a few will not like such stuff to listen …. all want to listen to fast beats and only filmi music.

Many don’t care to sing such songs. You are a rare person with different interests i think. You have done so many English covers …. good to know, will surely listen to the same.
5/5 from me and God Bless.

Right from my school days, when the Chapel Hall was my favourite place to be, till today, where I try to visit any church I pass by, Gospels have always moved me a lot. The meaning in them is so strong, yet so simply put.

George – to rate or assess this song is not something I can do…. Not only because you sang this too well, but when it comes to the Lord, everything sounds really sweet to me….

Brilliant rendition, though…. Feel like going back to my school days….

5/5 – just coz there is a rating allowed :)

Hi divine brother George,

DIVINE, IMMACULATE, HEAVENLY and IMMORTAL rendition to The Messiah – Our Savior.

Wonderful dedication to the SON of GOD, truly God incarnate.

Though the Lord has walked with me since time immemorial, still thank you for making me experience the Lord in the potent form once again through your divine song.

I am very happy that a high quality talent like you ventures into Gospel singing, the world needs it more and more indeed.

THIS is surely one of BEST RENDITIONs of MUZIBOO I would say and when it is the Lord’s song it transcends everything and is out of the material race and illusion and is beyond time and space pervading the realms of heaven.

RATING:
I rate it from the God particle within me :) and it says the rating is INFINITY.

FAVORITES:
Goes into the favorites of the soul particle of God within me. Thank you divine brother George and Roshan for making me experience the ONENESS with God once again this day through this song.

##################################################
The realization this song brings is much more than our minds can encompass. It surely eliminates all the illusion all around the soul and connects your finite soul to the holy spirit to deliver us from all the sins that we have done.

The purpose of Lord Jesus Christ to walk on this earth was to deliver us from evil and our sins and to leave behind a piece of HIS Heaven right here on earth for us to rejoice thereon in the name of our Father in Heaven.
##################################################
During his lifetime on earth and ever since:
- he gave sight to the blind
- he calmed down the storm with HIS hand
- he walked on water
- he was the Lord who delivered Mother Mary who delivered him.
- he saved goodness in the name of the father in Heaven
- Like St.John the Baptist baptized with water, the Lord baptized with the holy spirit itself.
- He performed MANY MIRACLES and even THIS DAY performs MIRACLES when you believe, trust and have faith in GOD the father in Heaven and His son Lord Jesus Christ or God in general whichever religion you belong to.
##################################################
Once he told Simon the fisherman whom he later named St.Peter, you will now on fish for men in the name of God.
##################################################
I remind you all sisters and brothers on Muziboo and all the people around the world the PRAYER that Lord Jesus Christ gave across to mankind to always stay connected to him and be happy happy and peaceful every moment in time:

Our Father in heaven, hallowed be your name, your kingdom come, your will be done, on earth as in heaven. Give us today our daily bread. Forgive us our sins as we forgive those who sin against us. Save us from the time of trial and deliver us from evil. For the kingdom, the power, and the glory are yours now and for ever. Amen.

DO THIS PRAYER AT LEAST ONE TIME DAILY my divine sisters and brothers.

##################################################
Some things that St.John said about our Lord Jesus Christ:

1. In Him was life, and the life was the Light of men.

2. And the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us, and we saw His glory, glory as of the only begotten from the Father, full of grace and truth.

3. And we know that the Son of God has come, and has given us understanding so that we may know Him who is true; and we are in Him who is true, in His Son Jesus Christ. This is the true God and eternal life.

4. In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

##################################################
NOTE: St.John the Baptist was not same as St.John.
(If someone wants to know detailed story on this please do mail me at ranjitsalian@gmail.com and this Servitor of God will be glad to share the story with you divine souls in service to the Lord)
##################################################
Message of St. John the Baptist to the human beings of those times during the times of Lord Jesus Christ:

1. “I baptize with water: but there standeth one among you, whom ye know not;
He it is, who coming after me is preferred before me, whose shoe’s latchet I am not worthy to unloose.” [said by St. John the Baptist]
(further he mentioned like I said above that HE will baptize you with the Holy Spirit)

##################################################
##################################################

NOW I LEAVE BEHIND YOU SISTERS AND BROTHERS WITH THE MOST WONDERFUL AND DIVINE WORDS
of
LORD JESUS CHRIST HIMSELF ‘AS IS’ which are HIS messages for MANKIND and which will bring a deeper realization into YOUR LIVES and will TRANSFORM and DELIVER you for the good in the name of the Lamb our Lord and GOD:

1. “I am the living bread that came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever. This bread is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.”

2. “I am the bread of life. He who comes to me will never go hungry.”

3. “I am the way, the truth and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.”

4. “I am the door; if anyone enters through Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture.”

5. “I am the resurrection and the life; he who believes in Me will live even if he dies.”

6. “Yes I am with you always, until the very end of time.”

7. “For God so loved the World that he gave his only begotten Son”

8. “The good man brings good things out of the good stored up in his heart, and the evil man brings evil things out of the evil stored up in his heart. For out of the overflow of his heart his mouth speaks.”

9. “Remain in me, and I will remain in you. No branch can bear fruit by itself; it must remain in the vine. Neither can you bear fruit unless you remain in me.”

10. “If you bring forth what is within you, what you bring forth will save you. If you do not bring forth what is within you, what you do not bring forth will destroy you.”

11. “Very truly, I tell you, servants are not greater than their master, nor are messengers greater than the one who sent them. If you know these things, you are blessed if you do them.”

12. “For behold, I, God, have asuffered• these things for all, that they might not suffer if they would repent; But if they would not repent they must suffer• even as I; Which suffering caused myself, even God, the greatest of all, to tremble because of pain, and to bleed at every pore, and to suffer both body and spirit—and would that I might not• drink the bitter cup, and shrink”

13. “Love the Lord your God with all your passion and prayer and intelligence. Love others as well as you love yourself.”

14. “Ask and it will be given to you; seek and you will find; knock and the door will be opened to you.”

15. “Yes I am with you always, until the very end of time”

16. “What shall it profit a man if he gains the whole world but loses his soul.”

17. “For everyone who exalts himself will be humbled, and he who humbles himself will be exalted.”

18. “Greater is He that is in you, than he that is in the world.”

19. “In the world you will have trouble but take courage for I have conquered the world.”

20. “Live in me, let me live in you.”

21. “Everyone who drinks this water will be thirsty again, but those who drink the water I give them will never thirst. Indeed, the water I give them will become in them a spring of water welling up to eternal life.”

22. “Let the little children come to Me, and do not forbid them; for of such is the kingdom of heaven.”

George, just as everyone else ~ God has reached through you and touched the depths of my soul ~ I am broken ~ my husband and I both loved hearing you sing these incredible words as tears rolled down my face. Thank you for reminding me Who I Am. Without Him I am nothing ~ it’s amazing to think of His love and to think Who am I that He could possibly call me His ~ Thank you for not only helping me in remembering this but to feel the love that comes with knowing without a doubt I am His ~ the only love I know that can truly heal all wounds and pain ~ once again He catches me while falling. You have truly revealed the brilliance and glory of the Lord through your work on this song. Definitely goes to faves!!!
