This week’s song is one of just a couple for SOTW 2019 that isn’t new. I wrote this melody to Psalm 89 back in 1992. It's always been one of my favorites so we’re excited to release it in video form. This passage instills, awakens and evokes a sense of awe and wonder. Coupled with the gift of music, it sends me into - the big reminder - of just how beautiful, eternal, powerful and awesome our God really is. We pray it does the same for you!
Psalm 89:5-8 NIV “The heavens praise your wonders, Lord, your faithfulness too, in the assembly of the holy ones. For who in the skies above can compare with the Lord? Who is like the Lord among the heavenly beings? In the council of the holy ones God is greatly feared; he is more awesome than all who surround him. Who is like you, Lord God Almighty? You, Lord, are mighty, and your faithfulness surrounds you.”
Exodus 15:11 NIV “Who among the gods is like you, Lord? Who is like you— majestic in holiness, awesome in glory, working wonders?”
Jeremiah 10:6, 7 NIV “No one is like you, Lord; you are great, and your name is mighty in power. Who should not fear you, King of the nations? This is your due. Among all the wise leaders of the nations and in all their kingdoms, there is no one like you.”
Revelation 15:3,4 NIV “and sang the song of God’s servant Moses and of the Lamb: ‘Great and marvelous are your deeds, Lord God Almighty. Just and true are your ways, King of the nations. Who will not fear you, Lord, and bring glory to your name? For you alone are holy. All nations will come and worship before you, for your righteous acts have been revealed.’”
Revelation 5:8,9 ESV “And when he had taken the scroll, the four living creatures and the twenty-four elders fell down before the Lamb, each holding a harp, and golden bowls full of incense, which are the prayers of the saints. And they sang a new song, saying, ‘Worthy are you to take the scroll and to open its seals, for you were slain, and by your blood you ransomed people for God from every tribe and language and people and nation,..’”
