Last Sunday I had the pleasure of rejoining the worship team at church. It has been several years since I have had the opportunity to do so. I have forgotten how much joy that serving God in this way gives me. I love looking out into the congregation as they sing praises to our God. From that vantage point, I witness a myriad of emotions on the beautiful faces of my brothers & sisters. What a blessing to be able to lift them up in a brief prayer.

I have included the lyrics of one of my favorite songs from the set. I think it speaks so much to what is currently happening in our cities. Can you think of other songs?

God of this City

You’re the God of this city
You’re the King of these people
You’re the Lord of this nation
You are

You’re the light in this darkness
You’re the hope to the hopeless
You’re the peace to the restless
You are

There is no one like our God
There is no one like our God

For greater things have yet to come
And greater things are still to be done in this city

Greater things have yet to come
And greater things are still to be done in this city

You’re the God of this city
You’re the King of these people
You’re the Lord of this nation
You are

You’re the light in this darkness
You’re the hope to the hopeless
You’re the peace to the restless
You are

There is no one like our God
There is no one like our God

For greater things have yet to come
And greater things are still to be done in this city

Greater things have yet to come
And greater things are still to be done in this city

Greater things have yet to come
And greater things are still to be done here

There is no one like our God
There is no one like you, God

For greater things have yet to come
And greater things are still to be done in this city

Greater things have yet to come
And greater things are still to be done

We believe, we believe in you, God

Greater things have yet to come
And greater things are still to be done in this city

Greater things have yet to come
And greater things are still to be done here
Greater things, still to be done here
