You set up mountains by your might.
You still the roaring of the seas,
the roaring of the waves,
the tumult of the peoples... -Psalm 65
Lord, the scriptures tell me how powerful you are:
you put the mountains in their place,
with only a word you quiet the ocean's roar;
and at your glance
the sea's roiling waves grow calm...
you speak peace in your people's hearts
and still the turmoil and tumult of nations...
Be powerful in my life, Lord,
when I'm too weak and too small to do on my own
what you ask and require of me,
what my responsibilities demand of me
and all that I want and need to do
to become the person you made me to be...
Will you move the mountains in my way?
Will you put them in their place?
clear a path for me to make my way?
a valley safe, through heights and peaks
that loom so dark above me?
By your own might, Lord,
you built the mountains:
let them not stand a barrier between us...
With but a word
will you quiet the ocean tempest
that roars through my mind and my thoughts?
Will you hush the rush
of all the noise distracting me
from prayer, from peace,
from your presence by my side?
With only a glance will you calm the waves
that rock my boat and threaten my life's voyage?
Will you smooth the seas capsizing my craft
and reach out your hand
to pull me up from the depths?
Will you still the turmoil
that troubles my mind and heart,
that shakes my confidence in you,
in others -- in myself?
Will you speak your peace deep within my soul
and give me grace to trust in your strong arm?
Will you show your power in my life, Lord?
Will you move, powerfully, deep within me?
Will you open my eyes and help me see
where you are, how you move, what you do?
When I come to prayer, Lord, let me find:
the safe path you map for me to walk;
the peaceful word you speak to soothe my soul;
the calm and peace your presence always brings...
In the stillness of this night Lord,
give me a taste of the peace you offer,
a hunger for your word and truth
and a thirst for your holy wisdom...
Protect me, Lord, while I'm awake
and watch over me while I sleep
that awake, I might keep watch with you
and asleep, rest in your peace...
Amen.
I'm praying God come
And turn this thing around
God, turn it around
God, turn it around
God, turn it around
I’m calling on the name
that changes everything
God, turn it around
God, turn it around
God, turn it around
All of my hope
Is in the name
The name of Jesus
Breakthrough will come
Come in the name
The name of Jesus
God, turn it around
God, turn it around
He is up to something
He is up to something
God is doing something right now
He is healing someone
He is saving someone
God is doing something right now
He is moving mountains
Making a way for someone
God is doing something right now
God is doing something
