U Bly Getrou

About This Song

U Bly Getrou closes the release with surrender rather than spectacle. The words come without polished answers and bring the whole life—including shame, silence, joy, and tears—before Jesus. The marks in His hands anchor God’s faithfulness in the cross, while the confession of Christ as living King turns gratitude into worship. Its gentle guitar setting leaves room for a personal prayer: receive my love, receive my life.

Devotional

“Let us hold unswervingly to the hope we profess, for he who promised is faithful” (Hebrews 10:23).

We do not come to Jesus because our words are impressive or our lives are already ordered. We come because He is gracious. Nothing hidden in the heart surprises Him, and nothing honestly surrendered is beyond His mercy.

The wounds of Christ show what faithful love cost. He offered Himself, carried our guilt, and rose as King. His nearness is not built on our emotional certainty; it rests on His character and promise. He remains worthy when worship is joyful and when words fall silent through grief.

Offering our lives to God is not a payment for grace. It is the response grace creates. Because He has first loved us, we can place our plans, failures, relationships, work, and future before Him as a living offering.

Reflect: What part of your life are you still trying to keep outside Christ’s gracious rule? Bring it honestly to Him and rest in this confession: You remain faithful; You remain near.

Lirieke

[Sagte kitaarinleiding]

[Vers 1]
Ek kom nie met groot woorde
Of antwoorde vandag.
Ek kom met alles wat ek is,
Ook dit waarvoor ek skaam is.

By U is daar genade,
By U kan ek kom rus.
U ken my hele lewe;
U weet wat in my hart is.

[Refrein]
U bly getrou,
U bly naby.
Jesus, my vrede
Is hier by my.

Ontvang my liefde,
Ontvang my lewe.
Met alles in my
Aanbid ek U.

[Vers 2]
Die merke in U hande
Vertel wat liefde kos.
U het Uself kom offer;
U het my skuld gedra.

Nou leef U as my Koning,
Vol waarheid en genade.
U is my loflied waardig,
In vreugde en in trane.

[Kort instrumentaal]

[Brug — sag en bestendig]
Wanneer my woorde stil word,
Is U steeds waardig, Heer.
My lewe is ’n offer;
Ek lê dit voor U neer.

[Finale Refrein — sagte harmonie]
U bly getrou,
U bly naby.
Jesus, my vrede
Is hier by my.

Ontvang my liefde,
Ontvang my lewe.
Met alles in my
Aanbid ek U.

[Stil einde]
My lewe is ’n offer;
Ek lê dit voor U neer.
