Church Music

I love our church.  I love the preaching, I love the people, I especially love the music. 

This Sunday we had a particularly fantastic round up of songs. 

We sang Hillsong's Forever Reign.  It's a powerful song and I want to meditate on the words in each line. 

When my own sin and struggles seem to be closing around me, I need to be reminded of all that HE is.  He is good, and perfect, and totally in control of my life.  I need those reminders.   

Head over to youtube and listen to it.  It's great! 

"Forever Reign"
You are good You are good
When there’s nothing good in me
You are love You are love
On display for all to see
You are light You are light
When the darkness closes in
You are hope You are hope
You have covered all my sin

You are peace You are peace
When my fear is crippling
You are true You are true
Even in my wandering
You are joy You are joy
You’re the reason that I sing
You are life You are life
In You death has lost it’s sting

Oh I’m running to Your arms
I’m running to Your arms
The riches of Your love
Will always be enough
Nothing compares to Your embrace
Light of the world forever reign

You are more You are more
Than my words will ever say
You are Lord You are Lord
All creation will proclaim
You are here You are here
In Your presence I’m made whole
You are God You are God
Of all else I’m letting go

My heart will sing
No other Name
Jesus
Jesus
 

I pray you will be reminded of His incredible love this week.
