To Worship Him

I wrote this song Friday Night sitting at the piano, and took it to our Venue Band on Saturday Afternoon and we sang it this weekend for both the Saturday and Sunday service. Way to go guys! I wrote this after listening to Mark Driscoll's recent sermon on worship. All of life from Creation (Vs.1), to redemtion (Vs.2), to suffering (Vs.3) is a gift from God to give creation an oppurtunity to Worship Him. So thus the song is entitled, "TO WORSHIP HIM". Some of you have requested to words. So here they are. All the glory to God of course:

To Worship Him

The earth was spoken into place
The darkness ran to hide it's face
To Worship Him
To Worship Him

Creation rose with morning light
Dressed in flesh to see His might
To Worship Him
To Worship Him

And we are Your people
And you are our only God

CHORUS:

You are God the Father
God the Son
God the Spirit
Holy Three in One

Your name exalted
Your fame restored
Until all the nations
Worship and Adore

Vs.2

A curse was placed on Adam's race
When we had failed to revere His name
To Worship Him
To Worship Him

Bur now through Christ we've been redeemed
Satan's crushed and all our free
To Worship Him
To Worship Him

And we are your people
And you are our only God

(Repeat Chorus)

Vs.3
Even when in suffering
Your love endures so I will sing
To Worship You
To Worship You

And whenI faill into this earth
I will share in this new birth
To Worship You
To Worship You

(Repeat Chorus)

BRIDGE:
So come and Adore Him
Worship the Lord of all (2X)

(Repeat Chorus)

Great song Jonathan. I love the words, and music. It is a song of love an adoration to our Wonderful Saviour. Praise God for the talents that HE has given you, and also the fact that you are using them for HIs Glory!!!

I am very proud of you, and this song. I hope that you continue to write these types of songs. I also LOVE "let songs Arise" why not do that one??? Beautiful song, and uplifts my heart everytime I hear it.
