First up is Rich Mullins' "Sometimes by Step," which I've loved for the longest time. My favorite part is:
Sometimes I think of Abraham
How one star he saw had been lit for me
He was a stranger in this land
And I am that, no less than he
And on this road to righteousness
Sometimes the climb can be so steep
I may falter in my steps
But never beyond Your reachOh God, You are my God
And I will ever praise You
Oh God, You are my God
And I will ever praise You
I will seek You in the morning
And I will learn to walk in Your ways
And step by step You'll lead me
And I will follow You all of my days
And then there's Avalon's "Take You at Your Word"
Your word is life,
Your word is love,
Your word is true. . .
Everybody's looking for something to believe in
Lord, I find the faithful are few and far between
The more I read about You
The less I've cause to doubt you
What You say Lord,
You mean Now I've seen
I can take You at Your word
And my heart can rest assured
Lord I love you, Oh, I trust You
As I live I've learned
That I can take You at Your word
Your name is written here on the my life in love and kindness
Your word is hidden here in my heart to guard my soul
I've heard the gospel of
You're redeeming love
What You say, Lord, You do
I know it's true
Your word is life,
Your word is love,
Your word is true
Say You, say Your word to me
Lord, Your word is a lamp to my feet
And Your word is a light to my path
And, finally, Casting Crowns (an excellent band which debuted about three years ago, and keeps getting better) "Glory"
You are holy in this place
You are worthy of my praise and we worship You
Jesus we worship You
(You're the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords
You're the Master of the Universe
You're the Ruler of all Nations
And we sing to You,When You call my name, I'll run to You
I'll do anything You ask me to
Falling on my knees I worship You, my Lord )
We give You GLORY <We give You GLORY>
We give You GLORY <We give You GLORY>
Mmmmm! God is good, He is good all the time, and I love to praise Him!
Thanks. I needed the Rich Mullins, especially, today. The tune did a lil "tuning" of my thoughts.
