Music Monday: Ever Be

Your love is devoted like a ring of solid gold
Like a vow that is tested like a covenant of old
And Your love is enduring through the winter rain
And beyond the horizon with mercy for today

Faithful You have been and faithful you will be
You pledge yourself to me and it’s why I singYour praise will ever be on my lips, ever be on my lips
Your praise will ever be on my lips, ever be on my lips
Your praise will ever be on my lips, ever be on my lips
Your praise will ever be on my lips, ever be on my lips

You Father the orphan
Your kindness makes us whole
And you shoulder our weakness
And your strength becomes our own
Now you’re making me like you
Clothing me in white
Bringing beauty from ashes
For You will have Your brideFree of all her guilt and rid of all her shame
And known by her true name and it’s why I sing

Your praise will ever be on my lips, ever be on my lips
Your praise will ever be on my lips, ever be on my lips
Your praise will ever be on my lips, ever be on my lips
Your praise will ever be on my lips, ever be on my lips

You will be praised, You will be praised
With angels and saints we sing worthy are You Lord
You will be praised, You will be praised
With angels and saints we sing worthy are You Lord

You will be praised, You will be praised
With angels and saints we sing worthy are You Lord
You will be praised, You will be praised
With angels and saints we sing worthy are You Lord

And it’s why I sing
Your praise will ever be on my lips, ever be on my lips
Your praise will ever be on my lips, ever be on my lips
Your praise will ever be on my lips, ever be on my lips
Your praise will ever be on my lips, ever be on my lips

Music Monday: The Stand

Today Hunter Thompson sings “The Stand”…

[Verse]
You stood before creation
Eternity within Your hands
You spoke all life into motion
My soul now to stand
You stood before my failure
And carried the cross for my shame
My sin weighed upon Your shoulders
My soul now to stand

[Chorus]
So what can I say And what could I do
But offer this heart O God Completely to You

[Verse 2]
So I’ll walk upon salvation Your Spirit alive in me
This life to declare Your promise
My soul now to stand

[Chorus]
So what can I say
And what could I do
But offer this heart O God
Completely to You
So what can I say
And what could I do
But offer this heart O God
Completely to You

[Bridge]
So I’ll stand With arms high and heart abandoned
In awe of the One who gave it all
I’ll stand My soul Lord to You surrendered
All I am is Yours

Music Monday: It is well

I hadn’t listened to much Bethel Music before, but this is rapidly becoming one of my favourite songs:

VERSE 1
Grander earth has quaked before
Moved by the sound of His voice
Seas that are shaken and stirred
Can be calmed and broken for my regard

CHORUS
Through it all, through it all
My eyes are on You
Through it all, through it all
It is well
Through it all, through it all
My eyes are on You
It is well with me

VERSE 2
Far be it from me to not believe
Even when my eyes can’t see
And this mountain that’s in front of me
Will be thrown into the midst of the sea

BRIDGE
So let go my soul and trust in Him
The waves and wind still know His name
