So Will I

Happy Thursday to you! Two quick things to share.

I will be at the Campbell Road church of Christ in Garland, TX June 17th-19th. Friday night at 7pm. Saturday beginning at 10:30am. And Sunday beginning at 9am. Come join us as we sing and pray and study renovating our spirits to go on beautiful missions of mercy in Jesus' mighty name.

Today I want to share with you one of the most beautifully encouraging songs I've ever heard. Everything God has made around us, and everything God did in sending His Son, declares His glory beyond comprehension. Today we hope to be grateful. And to look at the planets proclaiming His majesty and say "So Will I." Look at the extend Jesus went to honor the will of God and love those around Him and humbly proclaim "So. Will. I."

God of creation

There at the start

Before the beginning of time With no point of reference

You spoke to the dark

And fleshed out the wonder of light And as You speak

A hundred billion galaxies are born

In the vapour of Your breath the planets form

If the stars were made to worship, so will I

I can see Your heart in everything You've made

Every burning star

A signal fire of grace

If creation sings Your praises, so will I God of Your promise

You don't speak in vain

No syllable empty or void For once You have spoken

All nature and science

Follow the sound of Your voice And as You speak

A hundred billion creatures catch Your breath

Evolving in pursuit of what You said

If it all reveals Your nature so will I

I can see Your heart in everything You say

Every painted sky

A canvas of Your grace

If creation still obeys You, so will I So will I

So will I If the stars were made to worship, so will I

If the mountains bow in reverence, so will I

If the oceans roar Your greatness, so will I

For if everything exists to lift You high, so will I

If the wind goes where You send it, so will I

If the rocks cry out in silence, so will I

If the sum of all our praises still falls shy

Then we'll sing again a hundred billion times God of salvation

You chased down my heart

Through all of my failure and pride On a hill You created

The Light of the world

Abandoned in darkness to die And as You speak

A hundred billion failures disappear

Where You lost Your life so I could find it here

If You left the grave behind You, so will I

I can see Your heart in everything You've done

Every part designed in a work of art called love

If You gladly chose surrender, so will I

I can see Your heart, a billion different ways

Every precious one, a child You died to save

And if You gave Your life to love them so will I Like You would again a hundred billion times

But what measure could amount to Your desire?

You're the One who never leaves the one behind
