God Is With Us
It’s the third Advent Melodic Monday! I’m a long time Casting Crowns fan and here is one of their Christmas songs I just love: God is with us. May this bless you as much as it has blessed me. How wonderful it is to have an awesome God who is in us, for us and with us. Hallelujah!
The skies don’t seem to be as dark as usual
The stars seem brighter then they’ve been before
Deep within I feel my soul a stirring
As though my hope has been restored
The shepherds say they’ve heard the voice of angels
Confirming rumors spread across the land
That a child protected well from Herod’s anger
Is our Father’s Son, and the son of man
Love is raining down on the world tonight
There’s a presence here I can tell
God is in us, God is for us, God is with us, Emmanuel
He’s the Savior we have been praying for
In our humble hearts He will dwell
God is in us, God is for us, God is with us, Emmanuel
I feel compelled to tell all who will listen
That peace on earth is not so out of reach
If we can find grace, mercy and forgiveness
He has come to save, He is all of these
You’re the Savior we have been praying for
In our humble hearts You will dwell
You are in us, You are for us, You are with us, Emmanuel
Gracious God,
How sweet it is to be loved by you.
Thank you for sending us Jesus.
Thank you for being in us,
for us and with us.
Be praised forever and ever.
In Jesus’ name,
Amen
