Draw Nigh To God and He Will Draw Nigh to You

I've had this verse memorized for many many years, but I've never really connected to two parts of it. The period in between made it two entirely seperate thoughts in my mind, but they're actually connected: "Draw nigh to God, and he will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, ye sinners; and purify your hearts, ye double minded." -James 4:8

Truth is, the nearer to God you draw, the more of His beauty and righteousness you see, and more of your own filth and unworthiness is revealed. The song "My Eyes Have Seen Holy" begs mercy and cleansing with the reason that "my eyes have seen holy." Draw nigh to God and see yourself as His righteousness reveals you. Draw nigh to God and beg mercy. Draw nigh to God and feel His cleansing and gentle, perfect forgiveness.
-Joanna

Am I unfit for You
Remember me, the one who turned from You?
I come in rags tattered by the Fall
And all the earth, a witness to my crime.

Mercy, weep over me
Let Your tears wash me clean.
Majesty, be merciful with me
For my eyes have seen Holy

Hear my prayer at night
Let the morning find me alive
For I am tired and weakened by the Fall.
Let all the earth bear witness to my cry

Mercy, weep over me
Let Your tears wash me clean.
Majesty, be merciful to me
For my eyes have seen Holy.

Let the Amen sound from Heaven as You lift my soul
Let the Amen sound from Heaven as You lift my soul
Let the Angels sound from Heaven, Holy is the Lord -Bebo Norman
