Power and Might

O Great Gentle Power and might,

Stirring softly, heart’s delight

Drawing minds to all things right

We wait within your presence

Gently lifting birds with air

Pulling those from Addiction’s despair

Freeing animals from the darkest snare

We wait within your presence

Silence, softness, Angels guide

Flying higher by your side

Inspiring thoughts they leave us right

We wait within your presence

God knows us

Lord I praise you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made
You know my thoughts, my going out and my lying down,
You’re familiar with all my ways
Even before I speak You know my words, You know my name. (Based on part of Psalm 139).

I like what the composer of the lyrics has done in this song. It’s as if he or she has put Psalm 139 into song and personally I like that.

In my bible there’s a footnote for verse “17 Or How amazing are your thoughts concerning me”‘ and it’s true his thoughts for us are amazing

I have read and heard this Psalm read out several times but I think I have to be honest in saying I learned more from it in doing this blog than ever before
