Story behind the song
I've meant to do this for at least a year. I liked the idea of a setting of morning prayer I could just put on my ipod and listen to anywhere I liked. In fact its been notoriously difficult. The words have been difficult. And the music has been difficult too. But now I have 3 songs I am happy with.
Lyrics
Come, let us sing to the Lord Let us heartily rejoice in the rock of our salvation Now let us come to His prescence with songs of thanks And shout out his praise with music and psalms For the Lord is a great God And a great king above all gods, He holds the deep places of Earth And he holds all the strength of the hills He filled up the pools of the sea He sculpted the earth and the land Come now let us bow, bend our knees Let us kneel down before our Creator For He is our God and our Lord and our master And we are the sheep who graze in his pasture Glory be to the Father and to the Son And glory to the Holy Spirit. As it was at the start, from the first begining. And to the age of ages. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen. Amen.
