O Worship Our King!
"Let the word of Christ dwell in you richly in all wisdom
in psalms and hymns and spiritual songs, singing with
grace in your hearts to the Lord."
Colossians 3: 16
The concepts and phrases of the classic hymn
“O Worship
the King” are taken from the various
passages of Scripture about the majesty of God.
We “gratefully sing his power and his love,” for He is
“our shield and defender, the Ancient of Days.” We “tell
of his might and sing of his grace, whose robe is the
light, whose canopy space.”
When it comes to
the Bible, studying leads to
singing. As we discover God’s “bountiful care,”
we lift our hearts in thanksgiving.
As we realize how our King provides for us, though we
are “frail children of dust, and feeble as frail,” we glorify
His
matchless love that “streams from the hills, descends
to the plain, and sweetly distills in the dew and the rain.”
Whatever your preference in music,
let your study of
God’s Word inspire your worship. Let your Bible be the
tuning fork for your soul, the melody for your day, and
the source of your songs.
"Your mercies how tender, how firm
to the end, our Maker, Defender,
Redeemer, and Friend."
Robert Grant
