Words to Songs

When I sit or stand worshiping God in church they put the music that we are singing up on a screen and so I know what words come next. I sing the songs, but do I really know what I am singing? Have I ever thought to consider the words and really just let them dwell in me. Maybe it is just me and others know the words to the songs and know exactly what they are singing, but there was a song yesterday that really ministered to me as I sang it and I wanted to share it with you.

"No One Higher"

Our Father, Creator
You hold our hearts together
There's no one higher than You

Redeemer, Defender
Our great and mighty Savior
There's no one higher than You

You are always with us
Gracious to forgive us
By Your power we've been set free

And Lord we stand amazed in Your presence
Astounded by Your mercy and love
Our hands are lifted high in surrender
Your grace for me is always enough
And there is no one higher than our God
There is no one higher than our You

My Comment: We surrender all to Him, that means His will be done in our lives, each day, every moment, He is in control and we are giving it to Him, not just during the song, but in our lives. We are worshiping Him for the great and marvelous God He is and we are saying we trust you and your will in us.

Majestic in wonder
You reign with love forever
There's no one higher than You

Your beauty, Your splendor
Your glory knows no measure
There's no one higher than You

You are always with us
Gracious to forgive us
By Your power we've been set free

And Lord we stand amazed in Your presence
Astounded by Your mercy and love
Our hands are lifted high in surrender
Your grace for me is always enough
And there is no one higher than our God
There is no one higher than our You

Let my life forever praise the glory of Your name
There is no one higher than You

There is no one higher
No one greater
No one like our God
There is none more able
Christ our Savior
Great and glorious

And Lord we stand amazed in Your presence
Astounded by Your mercy and love
Our hands are lifted high in surrender
Your grace for me is always enough
And there is no one higher than our God
There is no one higher than our You

Let my life forever praise the glory of Your name
There is no one higher than You

My thoughts: Have you ever stopped to really think about the words you are singing? Today I urge you to think about the music that is coming from your lips and really mean it, not because that is just what is being sung, but because it is your hearts desire, to worship God, to praise His holy Name. We have the greatest honor, it is truly amazing.
