Sabbath Psalm (December 13-14)
Sabbath Psalm (December 13-14)
(From my new song, “Words in the Wounds”)
Lord, when we fail
To see Your smile above the rim of sorrow’s veil
And find our vision far too dim and faith too frail
And when the waves of doubt pour in to sink our sail
Your faithfulness endures
And when we’re scared
And when the thunders clap and we’re so unprepared
And through the billows we can’t hear Your whispered care
Oh, how the devil’s hateful jeering clouds the air
But still Your Word is sure
So we will rest
In Your success
Your wounds are our mighty tower
And we’ll proclaim
That saving Name
Hell’s torrents can never overpower
Immanuel
God is with us!
In the middle of the tempest
Immanuel
God is for us!
And there’s an angel chorus
Singing o’er us
Listen to the words in the wounds
Listen to the voice calling, “Come out from that tomb!”
Listen as the veil rips apart
Listen to the rhythms of Redemption’s beating heart
