I'd just like to say that Mars Hill is the best church ever. I've been listening to their series on I Timothy and am continually reminded of how thankful I am for the positive influence the people have had on my life. In lieu of my normal Bible passage for the day, I thought I'd share the lyrics of one of my favorite MH songs:
The Glory of God
What can I give to you, my Lord,
For you are of infinite worth.
The sum of my songs, the cry of my heart,
The breath that descends to earth.
The deepest parts of the universe
Are not strangers to your hand.
The highest mountains, the furthest of seas,
The forgotten and untold lands.
There's a song that is sung
By the saints who have come and have gone
From under the sun.
Those that are present before your thone
Sing endlessly
The glory of God!
Praise and glory and wisdom and thanks
And honor and power and strength
Be to our God forever and ever and ever, Amen.
What can I give unto you, my Lord,
For you are of infinite worth?
The sum of my songs, the cry of my heart
The breath that descends to earth.
What cry can the deepest of sorrow bring
That you do not well understand?
What laugh can the outburst of joy not sing
Of the providence wrought by your hand?
There's a song that is sung
By the saints who have come and have gone
From under the sun.
Those that are present before your thone
Sing endlessly
The glory of God!
Praise and glory and wisdom and thanks
And honor and power and strength
Be to our God forever and ever and ever, Amen.
--Joe Day, (O)
