My son Nathan came home this weekend to celebrate his birthday... We had a very sweet time together.
While he was here, Nathan shared with me this amazing song,
"Sovereign Over Us," by Aaron Keyes.
He said he had been wanting to share this song with me for awhile ~ ~ ~
He knows his mommy... I cried all the way through it...
Thank you Nathan for sharing this very tender song with me!
After hearing it, I immediately wanted to share this very poignant song with you all.
May you, too, be blessed as you listen...
Sovereign Over Us
~Aaron Keyes
There is strength within the sorrow,
There is beauty in our tears.
You meet us in our mourning,
With a love that casts out fear.
You are working in our waiting;
You're sanctifying us.
When beyond our understanding,
You're teaching us to trust.
CHORUS
Your plans are still to prosper,
You have not forgotten us;
You're with us in the fire and the flood.
You're faithful forever,
Perfect in love;
You are sovereign over us.
We trust You, loving King.
You are wisdom unimagined,
Who could understand Your ways?
Reigning high above the heavens,
Reaching down in endless grace,
You're the Lifter of the lowly,
Compassionate and kind;
You surround and You uphold me,
And Your promises are my delight.
Your plans are still to prosper,
You have not forgotten us;
You're with us in the fire and the flood.
You're faithful forever,
Perfect in love;
You are sovereign over us
Your plans are still to prosper,
You have not forgotten us;
You're with us in the fire and the flood.
You're faithful forever,
Perfect in love;
You are sovereign over us.
You rescued!
Even what the enemy means for evil
You turn it for our good,
You turn it for our good and for Your glory;
Even in the valley You are faithful
You're working for our good,
You're working for our good and for Your glory.
Even what the enemy means for evil
You turn it for our good,
You turn it for our good and for Your glory;
Even in the valley You are faithful
You're working for our good,
You're working for our good and for Your glory.
Your plans are still to prosper,
You have not forgotten us
You're with us in the fire and the flood
You're faithful forever,
Perfect in love;
You are sovereign over us.
You're faithful forever,
Perfect in love;
You are sovereign over us.
