Worship in the AM

So for a while now, I have been listening to worship music on my way to work each morning. I used to listen to talk radio and channel surf a lot. But I found that worship music in the early AM helps me focus and rest on the way to work. Sitting in traffic is not too bad when I am focused on worship (don't worry, I am still watching the road). For the most part I have been listening to CD's, mostly because The Fish 95.9 has, in my opinion, less than to be desired morning hosts. But yesterday I flipped on the the Fish on the way to work and this song came on



It is called Our God by Chris Tomlin:


Water You turned into wine
Open the eyes of the blind
There’s no one like You
None like You
Into the darkness You shining
Out of the ashes we rise
There’s no one like You
None like You

CHORUS
Our God is greater, our God is stronger
God You are higher than any other
Our God is Healer, awesome and power
Our God, Our God…

Into the darkness you shining
Out of the ashes we Rise
There’s no One like You
None like You.

Our God is greater, our God is stronger
God You are higher than any other
Our God is Healer, awesome and power
Our God, Our God…
Our God is greater, our God is stronger
God You are higher than any other
Our God is Healer, awesome and power
Our God, Our God…

BRIDGE
And if Our God is for us, then who could ever stop us
And if our God is with us, then what can stand against?
And if Our God is for us, then who could ever stop us
And if our God is with us, then what can stand against?
What can stand against?

Our God is greater, our God is stronger
God You are higher than any other
Our God is Healer, awesome and power
Our God, Our God…
Our God is greater, our God is stronger
God You are higher than any other
Our God is Healer, awesome and power
Our God, Our God…

And if Our God is for us, then who could ever stop us
And if our God is with us, then what can stand against?
And if Our God is for us, then who can ever stop us
And if our God is with us, then what can stand against?
Then what can stand against?
Then what can stand against?

Our God is greater, our God is stronger
God You are higher than any other
Our God is Healer, awesome and power
Our God, Our God…
Our God is greater, our God is stronger
God You are higher than any other
Our God is Healer, awesome and power
Our God, Our God…

This song was a sweet and powerful picture for me that morning. We are rising out of the ashes because of Him. I need this reminder a lot of mornings... every morning, some more than others though. God is Stronger, Higher, Healer... and he is ours! He is for us! Our gift. Lovin' this AM worship :)
