A New Song
_________________________________________________________________
It is of the Lord’s mercies that we are not consumed
Because his compassions fail not
They are new every morning
Great is thy faithfulness
Lamentations 3:22-23
By awesome deeds you answer us with righteousness
O God of our salvation
The hope of all the ends of the earth
And of the farthest seas
The one who by his strength established the mountains
Being girded with might
Who stills the roaring of the seas
The roaring of their waves
The tumult of the peoples
So that those who dwell at the ends of the earth are in awe at your signs
You make the going out of the morning and the evening to shout for joy
Psalm 65.5-8
Therefore let us be grateful for receiving a kingdom that cannot be shaken
And thus let us offer to God acceptable worship, with reverence and awe
For our God is a consuming fire
Hebrews 12:27-29

Grateful
If Your love were the moon
And this shoreline my gratitude
And were the ocean Your grace
Would the tides mark the space
Between fear and doubt
And the faith to ride out
Waves pushing me higher
Waves dragging me out
To clear a place in the sand
To write the reasons why
I am
…grateful
And if the sun brought the truth
Could I stand in the light
Or would the sins of my youth
Put me to flight
To fall into the deep water
To drown in Your embrace
Born again to walk out of
My Lazarus’ grave
To write again in the sand
All the reasons why
I am
…grateful
Tides rise and retreat
In blessing and defeat
The Lord gives and He takes away
Still I will bless His name
Write it again in the sand
With all the reasons why
I am…
Grateful
