But I will sing of Your strength.
I will sing aloud
of Your steadfast love
in the morning.
For You have been to me
a fortress and a refuge
in the day of my distress.
Psalm 59. 16
Have you ever passed
a moving car and the driver
is singing out loud
with all his heart?
Be that driver.
Because when we sing aloud
about God's strength
and verbalize His Presence
at the beginning of the day,
it is a song that never ends
throughout the hours.
The tunes stick in our heads
and permeate our day.
We are changed by it,
because we are aware
of His abiding with us.
We go forth strengthened.
Healing has been triggered
by music engraved in our souls.
God hums the melodies with us
as we navigate our day.
And pushes back the darkness.
O LORD,
Whether facing triumph or sorrow,
journeying through pain or joy,
may we still be singing with You
when the evening comes.
Something is different
among Your people, O Lord,
a strength that is not our own
and Your Presence abides
in so many dimensions.
You have a strong hold on us.
You give us the songs
to sing out loud
in all that we do and say and pray.
How can we sing of You
in these circumstances?
Every which way we can.
Others are listening
not to our voices,
but to Your glory.
