The Rage of Grace

Let the whole world tremble before the Lord tonight

As we declare the power of his Might

For the power of His glory has raised

The Holy One who is worthy of praise

From the starburst of creation

To the joy of incarnation

He has finished our salvation

So every speculation

Against the knowledge of our God raised

Shall be destroyed by His Holy Rage

The Rage of Grace gives the power to see

In the rage of grace the demons  flee.

Every lofty thing is crushed

And the frail children of dust

Are endowed with a trust

That shall bring nations to their knees

The power of His glory

Will make these vessels holy

A place for  God to abide

To Him and through Him and in Him we hide.

Surely Goodness

Surely Goodness and mercy follow me

Child of Heaven

Seek the child of heaven

Arise and shine with His light

Pure and holy in His Presence

We see the son and we see the Most High

The One who cannot be seen

We see mystery as see God die

His purpose for everything

How can it be?

How can it be?

Deep is His dying breath

Deep is the sleep of death

But depths of darkness cannot chain

The Fountain of life who forever shall reign

So darkness flees

As deep calls to deep

And the ocean of darkness

Is exchanged

For an ocean of grace
