Voice in the Night

Voice In The Night

You’ve never failed me yet.
There is only one thing you forget
All my sins before the day we met-
You’ve forgotten them and become my friend

I give the praise to you.
You’ve done what no other God could do.
You have made me holy so that you
could invite me home to your Father’s throne

Chorus

As far as the east is from the west

my sins are off your mind.
As high as the heavens over earth

the height of all your kindness.
No deeper a love than that of a friend
who’d vow to die for you.
No wonder I say it over and over
My Jesus, I love you

I want to speak to you
And I want to dream about you too
Till I learn to do the things you do, my friend
I’ll let your Word shape me.
I’ll be anything I need to be
As I specialize in loyalty Until you take me home to your Father’s throne.

Chorus

For your voice in the night . . .

I love the way Harold Best encourages all of us contemporary songwriters to "go beyond the usual worship-related constraints and to explore the whole counsel of God, the extreme width and depth of the human condition, to leave no doctrinal stone unturned and to make sure that the body of Christ is fully equipped to sing its way through the entire catechism of the work of God."
Check it, on page 139 of his book Unceasing Worship

I haven't done this yet, but every time I edge another step away from the 'normal' thing to do, I feel a little better about my music.
I would place that ideal high on my list of Christian goals.
