Chad digs deep into the riches of this Psalm. We hear of the gift of family, and are encouraged to rest in Christ's loving care for our loved ones. Jeff Anderson makes his first guest appearance on the podcast singing "Without You".

Lyrics for Without You:

Psalm 127

Without You

All my labors are in vain

Without You

All my monuments give way

Crumbling like sand, back to the ocean,

under the waves, lost in the motion

Without You

 

Blessed are the ones

Who inherit a family

Children of light

A blessing to humanity

 

They have no reason to fear

Behold our Savior is here

 

Chorus

Come, my family let us rest

Come, give thanks for we are blessed

You watch over us

You watch over us

And we are not ashamed

 

Without you 

There is no room for love

Without you

We can never be as one

In the Spirit of truth

Together and forever

For there is no love, no lasting treasure

Without you 

 

Blessed are the ones

Who come into Your family

Who enter Your kingdom

Find their humanity

 

They have no reason to fear

Behold our Savior is here

 

Chorus

Come, my family let us rest

Come, give thanks for we are blessed

You watch over us

You watch over us

And we are not ashamed

 

Bridge:

Rest, for Your good pleasure

Rest, with Your gifts and treasure

Rest in Christ the Son

Rest in the Holy one

We rest in You
