I Stand In Awe

Below is an older song by Sovereign Grace music, from the album with the same title I Stand In Awe...

I Stand In Awe (by Mark Altrogge)

You are beautiful beyond description
Too marvellous for words
Too wonderful for comprehension
Like nothing ever seen hor heard

Who can grasp Your infinite wisdom?
Who can fathom the depth of Your love?
You are beautiful beyond description
Majesty, enthroned above

And I stand, I stand in awe of You
I stand, I stand in awe of You
Holy God, to whom all praise is due
I stand in awe of You

You are beautiful beyond description
Yet God crushed You for my sin
In agony and deep affliction
Cutt off that I might enter in

Who can grasp such tender compassion?
Who can fathom this mercy so free?
You are beautiful beyond description
Lamb of God who died for me

All That I Need

Time for another song from The Valley of Vision! This one is called "All That I Need" and is based on the Valley of Vision prayer "Fullness."


In You is strength to sustain me
And wisdom enough to guide my hand
Mercy enough to forgive me
And power to finish what You began

All that I need is in You, Jesus
The fountain of grace that overflows
All that I need is in You, Jesus
You are my only hope
You are my only hope

In You is fullness of gladness
And fullness of grace for every need
Rest for the ones who are weary
And beauty surpassing all that we’ve seen

You satisfy my heart
You satisfy my soul
You satisfy my heart
O help me always know

All that I need is in You, Jesus
The fountain of grace that overflows
All that I need is in You, Jesus
You are my only hope

Every Day

A few months ago a friend of mine got me a CD by Sovereign Grace Music. Though I had never heard of Sovereign Grace, it sure didn't take long for the album - Come Weary Saints - to become a favourite. From the very first listen I knew I had a new favourite song: "Every Day." It speaks of trials and things we go through that we don't understand - but it reminds us that God ordains all things and we can thank Him even when times are hard; and also reminds us that ultimately everything is for God's praise. So, continuing with thoughts of trials and praising God through the storms, I want to share these lyrics...


Every Day

In Your grace, You know where I walk
You know when I fall
You know all my ways
In Your love, I know You allow
What I cannot grasp
To bring You praise

Thank You for the trials
For the fire, for the pain
Thank You for the strength
Knowing You have ordained
Every day

Your great power is shown when I’m weak
You help me to see
Your love in this place
Perfect peace is filling my mind
And drawing my heart
To praise You again

Thank You for the trials
For the fire, for the pain
Thank You for the strength
Knowing You have ordained
Every day

In my uncertainty, Your Word is all I need
To know You’re with me every day
