time for lunch. or worship...

So...I came home for lunch today and after I had grabbed some Triscuits, cheese, and turkey pepperoni (it's actually not that bad!) I sat down at the table to begin nibbling. My computer was sitting in front of me on the table, because I was going to email some Hudson photos to myself at work. But, before I began sending photos to myself, I decided to check out Twitter and see what people were tweeting about.

Our oldest son, Josh, had tweeted about his favorite Aaron Keyes song and had included a link on which I clicked. Up came a You Tube video of Aaron Keyes singing his and Stuart Townend's setting of Psalm 62. We sing this song at our church, but, I wasn't familiar with the name Aaron Keyes...so I didn't realize the song would be familiar.

What a sweet providence from the Lord that I would "land" there during my lunchtime. My hour away from the office turned into a time of worship and thanksgiving. It was so wonderful! ...just too brief! How I pray that ALL my life would become worship!

Psalm 62
by Aaron Keyes and Stuart Townend

My soul finds rest in God alone,
my rock and my salvation,
A fortress strong against my foes,
and I will not be shaken.
Though lips may bless and hearts may curse,
and lies like arrows pierce me,
I’ll fix my heart on righteousness,
I’ll look to him who hears me.

O praise him, hallelujah, my delight and my reward;
Everlasting, never failing, my redeemer, my God.

Find rest, my soul, in God alone
amid the world’s temptations;
When evil seeks to take a hold
I’ll cling to my salvation.
Though riches come and riches go,
don’t set your heart upon them;
The fields of hope in which I sow
are harvested in heaven.

I’ll set my gaze on God alone,
and trust in Him completely;
With every day pour out my soul,
and he will prove his mercy.
Though life is but a fleeting breath,
a sigh too brief to measure,
My King has crushed the curse of death
and I am his forever.

O praise him! O praise him! Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
