Heavenly Father, you always amaze me
Let your Kingdom come in my world and in my life
Give me the food I need to live through today
And forgive me as I forgive the people that wrong me
Lead me far from temptation
Deliver me from the evil one
I look out the window the birds are composing
Not a note is out of tune or out of place
I walk to the meadow and stare at the flowers
Better dressed than any girl on her wedding day
So why should I worry?
Why do I freak out?
God knows what I need
You know what I need
Your Love is,
Your Love is,
Your love is strong
The Kingdom of the Heavens is now advancing
Invade my heart, invade this broken town
The Kingdom of the Heavens is buried treasure
Would you sell yourself to buy the one you've found?
Two things you told me
That you are strong
And you love me
Yes you Love me
Your Love is,
Your Love is,
Your Love is strong
Our God in Heaven
Hallowed be Thy name above all names
Your Kingdom come!
Your will be done
On earth as it is in heaven
Give us today our Daily Bread
Forgive us weary sinners
Keep us far from our vices
And Deliver us from these prisons!
Your Love is Strong, by Jon Foreman
This song has set the frame for my prayers the last few weeks. I am so amazed at God, in so many areas, I think my brain is starting to short circuit. Yesterday I was doing my handwriting of Genesis and I was just blown away by how faithful God is, how he upholds all creation, daily fulfilling his covenant with Noah.
I need His Kingdom and His gospel to come in and tear me apart. I am so proud.
I am so weak, I cannot try to plan another day without his help.
I so need forgiveness, and deliverance from temptation and sin.
I live on a mountain top. How amazing and gorgeous is that?
And yet I worry about tomorrow, how I'm performing, what certain girls might think of me. I get all worked up about stuff that has little or no significance. He knows what I really need, how I need to rely on Him.
The Lord's Prayer set to music is so much more alive in day to day life. His Love is Strong.
Micah :)
