I've been reading this book.
And thought I'd remind myself and others what it means to worship.
'Course I could go on forever about this, but I'll keep it as simple as Matt did.
God calls us to be
Persevering Worshipers.
As David was.
Worship in the presence
and absence of God.
It's not easy, but again I'll quote Redman,
God knows we are overwhelmed by life,
He just wants to know we are more overwhelmed by His beauty.
And I will praise you in the storm!By Casting Crowns.
I was sure by now,
God, that You would have reached down
and wiped our tears away,
stepped in and saved the day.
But once again, I say amen!
and it's still raining
as the thunder rolls
I barely hear You whisper through the rain,
"I'm with you"
and as Your mercy falls
I raise my hands and praise
the God who gives and takes away.
And I'll praise you in this storm
and I will lift my hands
for You are who You are
no matter where I am
and every tear I've cried
You hold in your hand
You never left my side
and though my heart is torn
I will praise You in this storm
I remember when I stumbled in the wind
You heard my cry to You
and raised me up again
my strength is almost gone how can I carry on
if I can't find You
and as the thunder rolls
I barely hear You whisper through the rain
"I'm with you"
and as Your mercy falls
I raise my hands and praise
the God who gives and takes away
I lift my eyes onto the hills
where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord, the maker of heaven and earth
I lift my eyes onto the hills
where does my help come from?
My help comes from the Lord, the maker of heaven and earth
