Highlighted Song: Stand in Awe by Jeremy Riddle

"The next day he saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, “Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!"

~John 1:29 (ESV)

Stand in Awe

I just discovered a GORGEOUS song this morning! It's called Stand in Awe by Jeremy Riddle, who also wrote one of my other favorite songs, Sweetly Broken.

This song is a powerful invitation to simply come and behold and worship our kind, awesome, "gracious and astounding" Lord Whose "love so confounding appears to us in a CLEANSING FLOW of blood."

"God raised Him from the grave--for Him arm is MIGHTY TO SAVE!"

"All hail the Lord of every man!"

The melody and choir voices in this recording combined with the words they are singing make my hair stand on end!!

To listen, go here and scroll down to "Stand in Awe," or listen below!

Enjoy!


Lyrics: Stand In Awe
by Jeremy Riddle (c)

Gracious and astounding
God's love so confounding appears to us
In a cleansing flow of blood!

The Son left throne and glory,
Bore the Father's wrath and fury in our stead;
And for the sins of all He bled!

Stand in awe and worship!
Raise a voice and worship; Come adore
The King of kings and Lord of lords!

Behold the Lamb in Heaven
He was dead but God raised Him from the grave;
For His arm is mighty to save!

Now glorified and reigning
The keys of death and Hades in His hand;
And all hail the Lord of every man!

The King of kings and Lord of lords.

What a song! Loved it. I especially love the chorus of voices in the background---it makes me think of Heaven and long for that Day when we finally behold the King of kings in all His glory and PRAISE Him! Jesus!
