"As different as a real thing is from a shadow or as waking life is from a dream"

Setlist: Shadows of You / All Creatures of our God and King / God Almighty

Readings from "The Last Battle" by C.S. Lewis and "Devotions" by Mary Oliver

Shadows of You

The greatest of poets can try but can't describe the color green

Not the moss on the trees nor the translucent leaves

Less the spaces in between

And while all this glory shines through

It's just a shadow of You

 

All that Your hands fashion

All that I can imagine

Only shadows, their only shadows

All that Your hands fashion

All that I can imagine

Only shadows, their only shadows of You

 

The greatest of liars can try but can't deny Your holy song

In the laughter of children, the quiet of evening

Your rhythm marches on

And while all this glory shines through

It's still a shadow of You

 

All Creatures of Our God and King

All creatures of our God and King

Lift up Your voice and with us sing

O praise Him, Alleluia!

Thou burning sun with golden beam

Thou silver moon with softer gleam

Oh praise Him, Oh praise Him

Alleluia Alleluia  Alleluia

 

Thou rushing wind that art so strong

Ye clouds that sail in heaven along

O praise Him, Alleluia!

Thou rising morn in praise rejoice

Ye lights of evening find a voice

Oh praise Him, Oh praise Him

Alleluia Alleluia  Alleluia

 

Let all things their Creator bless

And worship Him in humbleness

O praise Him, Alleluia!

Praise praise the Father praise the Son

And praise the Spirit three in one

Oh praise Him, Oh praise Him

Alleluia Alleluia  Alleluia

 

God Almighty

The angels bow to Your majesty

The elders tremble, they fall to their knees

Your throne room's filled with heaven's song

And now we sing along

 

Holy Holy God almighty

You were, You are, You always will be

Holy Holy Almighty God

 

All nature stands a tribute to You

Your brilliance found in each petal
