I'm not quite sure where to post this, but the words are a daily inspiration for me. Perhaps it should be posted in poetry, I just don't know. Although they are the lyrics to a popular song by Nicole Mullen and many of you may hear it on a regular basis, I am posting primarily for those who may not be familiar with this, and also because I believe the words are simply beautiful, as well as true. May these words serve as an inspiration and blessing to someone.
"Redeemer"
Who taught the sun where to stand in the morning?
And Who told the ocean you can only come this far?
And Who showed the moon where to hide 'til evening?
Whose words alone can catch a falling star?
Well I know my Redeemer lives
I know my Redeemer lives
All of creation testifies
This life within me cries
I know my Redeemer lives
The very same God that spins things in orbit
Runs to the weary, the worn and the weak
And the same gentle hands that hold me when I'm broken
They conquered death to bring me victory
Now I know my Redeemer lives
I know my Redeemer lives
Let all creation testify
Let this life within me cry
I know my Redeemer, He lives
To take away my shame
And He lives forever, I'll proclaim
That the payment for my sin
Was the precious life He gave
But now He's alive and there's an empty grave
And I know my Redeemer lives
I know my Redeemer lives
Let all creation testify
Let this life within me cry
I know my Redeemer lives
Because He lives, I can face tomorrow
He lives, I spoke with Him this morning
He lives, He lives, the tomb is empty
He lives, I gotta tell everybody
