The Stand

Last week we posted an article about the song, The Change by Steven Curtis Chapman.  It reminded me of how God uses so many great songs to reveal His truths.  This concept is not new to God!

Worship the Lord

In Psalms 100 it says, “Shout for joy to the Lord, all the earth.  Worship the Lord with gladness; come before Him with joyful songs.  Know that the Lord is God.  It is He who made us, and we are His; we are His people, the sheep of His pasture.” Have you listened to the lyrics in Hillsong United’s song, The Stand?  The song clearly demonstrates the glory of God and our utter dependence on Him.  This song helps me to not only stand in awe of how amazing our God is, but it also helps me to recognized all that He has given me.

The Stand – Hillsong United

You stood before creation
Eternity within Your hand
You spoke the earth into motion
My soul now to stand

You stood before my failure
Carried the Cross for my shame
My sin weighed upon Your shoulders
My soul now to stand

So what can I say
What can I do
But offer this heart O God
Completely to You

So I’ll walk upon salvation
Your Spirit alive in me
This life to declare Your promise
My soul now to stand

So what can I say
What can I do
But offer this heart O God
Completely to You

So I’ll stand
With arms high and heart abandoned
In awe of the One who gave it all

So I’ll stand
My soul Lord to You surrendered
All I am is Yours
