Time for bed. But, before I go...

As I head off to bed after a wonderful day of worship with our church family of Cornerstone Church of Knoxville, God encourages me, once again, with this song.  Thank You, Father, for this day...for Your Word...for Your church...for Your grace...for Your Son...

"Jesus, King of Angels"  by Fernando Ortega


Jesus, King of angels, heaven's light,
Shine Your face upon this house tonight.
Let no evil come into my dreams;
Light of heaven, keep me in Your peace.

Remind me how You made dark spirits flee, 
And spoke Your power to the raging sea.
You spoke Your mercy to a sinful man;
Remind me, Jesus, this is what I am.


The universe is vast beyond the stars,
But You are mindful when a sparrow falls, 

And mindful of the anxious thoughts 
That find me, surround me, and bind me . . .


With all my heart I love You, Sovereign Lord.
Tomorrow, let me love You even more.
And rise to speak the goodness of Your name 

Until I close my eyes and sleep again.


Jesus, King of angels, heaven's light,
Hold my hand and keep me through this night.
