For His Glory

For His Glory

When I think about my life
And where I think its heading
Of all the things I want to do
I find there is one thing I’m forgetting
You are the One Who stretched out the skies
And spread out the earth below
You give life’s breath to everyone
By You all things thrive and grow

You are the One Who holds my hand
Sustaining courage, support and strength
You keep me close and guard my way
Loving me at astounding great length

It’s hard to imagine that such a One
Full of power and miraculous ways
Would even remember that I exist
And His character through me display
Yet He called me to reveal Who He is
Shedding light on blinded eyes
Freeing those bound as captives enslaved
Release from certain demise

Isaiah 42:5-8

This is what God the LORD says—he who created the heavens and stretched them out, who spread out the earth and all that comes out of it, who gives breath to its people, and life to those who walk on it:

"I, the LORD, have called you in righteousness; I will take hold of your hand. I will keep you and will make you to be a covenant for the people and a light for the Gentiles, to open eyes that are blind, to free captives from prison and to release from the dungeon those who sit in darkness.

"I am the LORD; that is my name! I will not give my glory to another ..."
