When Words Fail, Worship Speaks

On September 10 with the news of the assassination of Charlie Kirk, I was so overwhelmed with acute grief and sadness and my thoughts immediately went to his wife, Erika, and his children. We’ve all been asking ourselves the same questions. How did we get here as a society where we can’t even engage in public discourse and debate with those whom we disagree. I’m praying for our country. I’m praying for revival. I’m praying for more courage in telling others about Jesus. I’m praying for more people to encounter the love of God. 

The lyrics in this song, which is one of our JoyJam highlighted songs, washed over me with comfort and I pray they do the same for you:

Phil Wickham, Our God What an Awesome God

Eyes on the sky, there will be a day
He will come and wipe our tears away
No more fear, no more pain
No more sorrow, sin or shame
The King is coming back again
A reign of love that will never end
For everything You've done and everything You do
And everything You are, I'll sing to You

My God, You're an awesome God
You're great in all You do
I'm made to worship You
My God, You're an awesome God
What an awesome, awesome God You are
No one like You, none beside You
God, we worship You
