New Song: Glorious and Mighty

This week we're going to learn a new song together by Bob Kauflin and friends from Sovereign Grace Ministries. It's a song that celebrates and responds to the sovereignty of God over all of his creation.

The video is from the 2009 Resolved Conference in Palm Springs. If you look really carefully, you'll see me playing the black electric guitar, although whoever filmed it REALLY liked to watch the drummer :)

Here are the lyrics:

Majesty, Your glory is shining

Brighter than the moon and the stars

Marveling, we honor and fear You above all gods!

Glorious and mighty!

You're awesome in beauty

Joyful songs we raise!

Glorious and mighty!

You're awesome in beauty

Greatly to be praised!

Majesty, You fashioned the heavens

Your decrees can never be changed

Over all the plans of the nations Your judgments reign!

Majesty, we sing with creation!

When You come again in the clouds

Every knee will bow down and worship the one true God!

Here's a really cool video of a church choir doing the tune! Maybe someday a choir will sing it at Crossroads!

Welcome To Crossroads Community Church's Worship Blog

This blog is a tool for the church community to prepare to come together and worship each Sunday.

So often we go to church just expecting to "be fed." It's true that we need to come with empty hands expecting to be filled with the love and goodness of God each week.

BUT...

I also believe that the church body has a responsibility to each other, and to the Lord, to take this weekly gathering very seriously, and that we should come prepared to participate, and to minister to each other.

This blog helps us to know a little more about what is going on in our services, so that we can prepare by praying, reading the scripture text, looking up the songs we'll sing together, and learning new songs, etc.

It also helps to keep us thinking about worship and our walk with the Lord throughout the week. The way we think through and approach every area of life is an act of worship, and it's the task of the believer to direct that worship towards God in the way we interact with life.
