New Song This Week

I want to introduce this song this coming Sunday called "O Great God." It's by Bob Kauflin of Sovereign Grace Ministries, and it's based off of a prayer from the book "The Valley Of Vision" which is a book of prayers from the Puritans. It's a song of surrender and submission which is what Wayne Dell will be talking about this Sunday.

Here are the words, and the player above will give you an idea of how it goes.

"O Great God"

O great God of highest heaven
Occupy my lowly heart
Own it all, and reign supreme
Conquer every rebel power
Let no vice or sin remain
That resists Your holy war
You have loved and purchased me
Make me Yours forevermore

I was blinded by my sin
Had no ears to hear Your voice
Did not know Your love within
Had no taste for heaven's joys
Then Your Spirit gave me life
Opened up Your Word to me
Through the gospel of Your Son
Gave me endless hope and peace

Help me now to live a life
That's dependent on Your grace
Keep my heart and guard my soul
From the evils that I face
You are worthy to be praised
With my every thought and deed
O great God of highest heaven
Glorify Your name through me
