-Great is the Lord-
-Great is the Lord-
GREAT IS THE LORD AND MOST WORTHY
OF PRAISE
THE CITY OF OUR GOD,
THE HOLY PLACE
THE JOY OF THE WHOLE EARTH.
GREAT IS THE LORD WITH WHOM
WE HAVE THE VICTORY
HE AIDS US AGAINST THE ENEMY
WE BOW DOWN ON OUR KNEES.
AND LORD WE WANT TO
LIFT YOUR NAME UP HIGH
AND LORD WE WANT TO THANK YOU
FOR THE WORK YOU'VE
DONE IN OUR LIVES
AND LORD WE TRUST
IN YOUR UNFAILING LOVE
FOR YOU ALONE ARE GOD ETERNAL
THROUGHOUT EARTH
AND HEAVEN ABOVE.
yes the Lord is the great and faithful that has seen us through yet another year..
and as we head into this new year of 2009,
just wanted to share a little note of encouragement.
Today, dear friends, we stand upon the verge of the unknown.
There lies before us the new year and we are going forth to possess it.
Who can tell what we shall find?
What new experiences, what changes shall come, what new needs shall arise?
But here is the cheering, comforting, gladdening message from our Heavenly Father,
" The Lord thy God careth for it."
"His eyes are upon it from the beginning of te year even unto the end of the year."
If He be the Source of our mercies, they can never fail us.
No heat, no drought can parch that river.
The land is a land of hills and valleys.
It is not all smooth nor all downhill.
If life were all one dead level, the dull sameness would oppress us;
we ant th hills and the valleys.
The hills collect the rain for a hundred fruitful valleys.
It is the hill difficulty that drives us to the throne of grace and brings down the shower od blessing;
the hills, thr bleak hills of life that we wonder at and perhaps grumble at, bring down the showers.
We cannot tell what loss and sorrow and trial are doing.
TRUST only.
The Father comes near to take our hand and lead us on our way today.
It shall be a good, and blessed new year!!
