Music Monday: Nothing To Fear

Leave a comment

Another Audrey Assad song this week, where she appears with The Porter’s Gate, singing “Nothing to Fear”…

When you pass through the waters I will be with you
And the depths of the river shall not overwhelm
When you walk through the fire you will not be burned
I am the Lord. I am the Lord

And there is nothing to fear, nothing to fear
There is nothing to fear, nothing to fear
For I am with you always.

In the depths of your sorrow I wept beside you
When you walked through the shadow I drew you near
Yesterday, today, tomorrow – always the same
I am the Lord, I am the Lord

What can separate you from My perfect Love?
What can separate you from My perfect Love?
What can separate you from My perfect Love?
Do not fear. Do not fear. Do not fear.

Music Monday: Wood and Nails

While I’m waiting for Audrey Assad to release more music videos for her new album, Evergreen, here’s a video from a collaboration project, The Porter’s Gate Project. This is “Wood and Nails”:

O humble carpenter, down on your hands and knees,
look on your handiwork and build a house so you may dwell in me,
so you may dwell in me…

The work was done with nothing
but wood and nails in your scarborne hands,
O show me how to work and praise,
trusting that I am your instrument

The kingdom’s come and built
upon wood and nails gripped with joyfulness,
So send me out with in Your ways,
knowing that the task is finished

The dead will rise and give you praise,
wood and nails will not hold them down!
These wooden tombs, we’ll break them soon,
and fashion them into flower beds

The curse is done, the battle one,
swords bent down to plowshares,
Your scareborne hands, we’ll join with them,
serving at the table you’ve prepared
