Everyone needs compassion, a love that’s never failing, let mercy fall on me
Well, everyone needs forgiveness The kindness of a Savior, the hope of nations.
Savior, He can move the mountains; my God is mighty to save, He is mighty to save
Forever, Author of Salvation, He rose and conquered the grave, Jesus conquered the grave.
So take me as You find me—all my fears and failures—fill my life again
I give my life to follow, everything I believe in, I surrender…I surrender.
Savior, He can move the mountains My God is mighty to save, He is mighty to save
Forever, Author of Salvation, He rose and conquered the grave, Jesus conquered the grave.
Shine Your light and let the whole world see we’re singing for the glory of the risen King,
Jesus, shine Your light and let the whole world see we’re singing for the glory of the risen King.
This song just makes my heart glad! I want to dance and jump around for my Savior, raise my hands and sing at the top on my lungs! (I do apologize for anyone standing close by!) This song has the perfect balance of praise and asking for forgiveness and joy. Not many songs can do that. As we read and sing along, think on the words. Let the meaning fill your soul and lift you to new heights!
Being at service on Sunday we were reminded that we are to always show others what it is to be a Christ follower. We are to speak, act, and walk in the path of Christ. Songs like this will help us keep that focus on the Kingdom. As the one line goes, “Let the whole world see we’re singing for the glory of the risen King.” One day He will return and we will have to give an account of what we have done. I know I want to be able to hold my head high and say I have tried my best.
