Find Rest my Soul

Verse 1
My soul finds rest in God alone
My Rock and my Salvation
A fortress strong against my foes
And I will not be shaken
Though lips may bless and hearts may curse
And lies like arrows pierce
I'll fix my heart on righteousness
I'll look to Him who hears me




Chorus
O Praise Him, Hallelujah

My Delight and my Reward

Everlasting never failing

My Redeemer my God



Verse 2


Find rest my soul in God alone
Amid the world's temptations
When evil seeks to take a hold
I'll cling to my Salvation
Though riches come and riches go
Don't set your heart upon them
The fields of hope in which I sow
Are harvested in heaven

Chorus



Verse 3
I'll set my gaze on God alone
And trust in Him completely
With every day pour out my soul
And He will prove His mercy
Though life is but a fleeting breath
A sigh to brief for measure
My King has crushed the curse of death
And I am His forever


Chorus


O Praise Him, O Praise Him, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
O Praise Him, O Praise Him, Hallelujah, Hallelujah
O Praise Him, O Praise Him, Hallelujah, Hallelujah


O Praise Him, Hallelujah
My Delight and my Reward
Everlasting never failing
My Redeemer my God



Psalm 62:1-2, 4-8, 10, 12

(1-2) "My soul waits in silence for God only; From Him is my salvation. He only is my rock and my salvation, My stronghold; I shall not be greatly shaken.

(4-8) "They have counseled only to thrust him down from his high position; They delight in falsehood; they bless with their mouth, but inwardly they curse. My soul, wait in silence for God only, for my is from Him. He only is my rock and my salvation, my stronghold; I shall not be shaken. On God my salvation and my glory rest; the rock of my strength, my refuge is in God. Trust in Him at all times, O people; Pour out your heart before Him; God is a refuge for us.

(10) Do not trust in oppression and do not vainly hope in robbery; if riches increase, do not set you heart upon them

(12) And lovingkindness is Yours, O Lord, for You recompense a man according to his work.



Is your soul resting in God alone? Is He your rock, salvation and fortress?

Beautiful Beyond Description

You are beautiful beyond description
Too marvelous for words



Too wonderful for comprehension
Like nothing ever seen or heard








Who can grasp your infinite wisdom
Who can fathom the depths 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





Yes I stand in awe of you

I stand in awe of you

Creed

Ok, so I finally downloaded a play list for my blog. Small problem .... I don't know how to post it on my blog :/ so .... I will hopefully soon talk to some of my friends and they will show me how :)
My favorite one is the first one on the list; Creed. This is such an inspiring song! It shows what we Christians believe in:




I believe in God the father
Almighty maker of heaven and maker of earth
And in Jesus his only begotten son, our Lord
He conceived by the Holy Spirit
Born of the virgin Mary
Suffered under Pontius Pilate
He was crucified and dead and buried

And I believe what I believe is what makes me what I am
I did not make it, no it is making me
It is the very truth of God and not the invention of any man

I believe that He who suffered was crucified, buried and dead
He descended into hell, on the third day, rose again
He ascended into heaven where He sits at God's mighty right hand
I believe that He's returning
To judge the quick and the dead and the sons of men

And I believe what I believe is what makes me what I am
I did not make it, no it is making me
It is the very truth of God and not the invention of any man


I believe it, I believe it
I believe it
I believe it, I believe it

I believe in God the father
Almighty maker of heaven and maker of earth
And in Jesus Christ His only begotten son, our Lord
I believe in the Holy Spirit
One holy church
The communion of Saints
The forgiveness of sins
I believe in the resurrection
I believe in a life that never ends

And I believe what I believe is what makes me what I am
I did not make it, no it is making me
I did not make it, no it is making me
I said I did not make it, no it is making me
It is the very truth of God and not the invention of any man

I believe it, I believe
I believe it, I believe
I believe it, I believe it
I believe it, I believe it
I believe it, I believe it
I believe it








So ..... do you believe? Do you believe in God the Father? The ALMIGHTY maker of heaven and earth! We have such an awesome God!!



The line 'I did not make it, no it is making me' really got me thinking; It's not the works we do that will get us into heaven. It's the work and sacrifice God's only begotten Son did for us. He died and rose again!!!


Anyway, sorry my play list isn't up yet; I will put it on as soon as I can.



In Christ Alone,
