I’ve got a new song for you today called “His Glorious Grace”.
This song was inspired by Ephesians 1:3-10 –
“Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us in Christ with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places, even as he chose us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and blameless before him. In love he predestined us for adoption as sons through Jesus Christ, according to the purpose of his will, to the praise of his glorious grace, with which he has blessed us in the Beloved. In him we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of our trespasses, according to the riches of his grace, which he lavished upon us, in all wisdom and insight making known to us the mystery of his will, according to his purpose, which he set forth in Christ as a plan for the fullness of time, to unite all things in him, things in heaven and things on earth.”
And Romans 16:27 –
“To the only wise God be glory forevermore through Jesus Christ! Amen.”
I was really struck by the idea in Ephesians 1 of us being chosen as his sons that we might be to the praise of his glorious grace. That is what we were made to do – glory in his grace. Make it known to the world. Sing of its riches.
So this is really a song about us becoming who we were made to be – God’s children joining into creation’s song, and together praising His glorious grace, which he has lavished upon us through Jesus, the one wise King.
I hope it stirs your soul to worship the King.
His Glorious Grace
O the Lord is my portion
He is all I need
My soul is His alone
And in Him I am free
At His name the stars and heavens were made
Glorious is His mighty grace
We will rise with all creation and sing
‘Glory to the one wise king’
For His love is like the ocean
Wide and high and deep
He saved this sinner’s soul
By His blood I am redeemed
Now broken is the curse of sin
Shattered in defeat
All praise the God of Grace
Who reigns triumphantly!
On that day when He returns to reign
Every knee will bend
Death and fear will pass away
Glory without end!
All majesty, sovereignty, all to the Lord of Hosts
Majesty, sovereignty, all to the Lord of Hosts
O praise, my soul, praise, my soul
Praise Him the Lord of Hosts
Praise, my soul, praise, my soul
