Still
Words and Music by Reuben Morgan
Hide me now, under your wings
Cover me, within your mighty hand
When the oceans rise and thunders roar
I will soar with you above the storm
Father you are king over the flood
I will be still and know you are God
I will soar with you above the storm
Father you are king over the flood
I will be still and know you are God
Find rest my soul, in Christ alone
Know his power, in quietness and trust
Yes, before I start making any comments! Let me clarify something, this is not a hymn. Therefore, in any case, if anyone feels uncomfortable with contemporary Christian music, do inform me and I'll take this post off the blog IMMEDIATELY. It is very important that what we are doing do not stifle the spiritual well-being of a fellow brother or sister-in-Christ in any ways! Instead, we should be encouraging and challenging one another as we are "Running the Race" while we are constantly in battle with this sinful world made up of sinful people like you and I. Also, we will also be sticking to hymns during praise and worship in church as set out by our church leaders. I would also like to share on a personal note that there are many times where I lose focus on meditating on the lyrics of some of these music, absorbed in self-gratification instead of exalting the Lord. Therefore, be it a hymn or a contemporary Christian song, it is important to note that there are times we do not set our hearts on the Lord during worship and it is important that we should refrain from doing so, albeit we are prone to do so because of our sinful nature.
Full credits go to Spencer for summing up this whole song. I was practically nodding my head as he types out how he feels about the song during my conversation with him on MSN. Storms are inevitable in our lives. One moment we might be experiencing peace, but the next moment, we might be caught in a thunderstorm. We must be reminded that, in any case, we have a God who's Lord above all, and we can rest assure to stay still and be calm in any storms because we know that He is Lord.
I will be adding the sermon which was discussed last Saturday during youth fellowship too. Credits goes to Cynthia as she will be sending me the sermon! I lost my worksheet, a clear indication of a bad student once again. I will be working on it! By the grace of God, may we be changed as we try to imitate Him in every aspects of our lives. Do spend time praying for one another and feel free to add in any praises and prayer items. I will end of with this verse from
Psalms 19:14 (KJV)
14Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer.
