Lyrics for "A Hymn To Our Father"
Psalm 147a. 
 
You number the stars
And give each one a name
You send  clouds to cover the sky
You water  the earth with gentle  rains
Gentle  rains
 
And in Your heart, O God
We will never be forgotten
We are Your children
And You are the Father
 
Chorus: 
Our Father
We love You
You are so good to us
All Your mercy
All Your goodness
Has surrounded us in love
Our Father
We love You
You are so good to us
All Your goodness
All Your mercy
Has surrounded us in love
 
You look down from heaven
You see the broken hearts
Our great physician, You bind up our wounds
With gentle care, gentle care
 
And in Your heart, O God
We will never be forgotten
We are Your children
And You are the Father
 
Chorus: 
Our Father
We love You
You are so good to us
All Your goodness
All Your mercy
Has surrounded us in love
Our Father
We love You
You are so good to us
All Your goodness
All Your mercy
Has surrounded us in love

In this encouraging episode, Chad looks at our resumes and what on earth gives us value. The God of Jacob executes justice on behalf of the oppressed, the needy, the outcast, the blind, and the sinners (like us). Markita Knight sings "By the God of Jacob We Are Blessed".

Lyrics to "By the God of Jacob We Are Blessed"
Verse 1)
I will not trust in earthly kings
Their breath departs, like fleeting things
Their only strength is the strength of man
Who returns to the dust, along with his plans
  
My hope is anchored deep in You
You breathe new life, Your word is truth
And You,   You formed the world, and made it right
Entered into the dark, and  brought the light
 
Chorus
By the God of Jacob
We are blessed 
O Christ, You execute justice
For the oppressed
Oh Christ the King
You reign forever
Our tongues confess
As we sing together
By the God of Jacob
We are blessed 
 
Lord, You still set the prisoners free
You still opened the eyes of the blind
You still lift up the fallen
You feed the hungry, the Lord provides
 
So let all creation praise Your name
Your goodness and mercy, forever the same
Oh, hallelujah, let our voices raise
For in  You (the Lord) alone, we find our endless praise.
 

Does God play favorites? It can sure seem that way sometimes. In this encouraging episode Chad looks at the last half of Psalm 146 and talks about Joseph and favoritism. Rebekah Caggegi sings "The Eyes of All Look to You"

Lyrics to "The Eyes of All Look to You"
The eyes of all look to you
And You give them their food in due season
You open up Your hand, and satisfy
The desire of every living thing
To all those who are falling
Almighty God upholds you
To all who  are bowed down
The Lord will raise you up
 
Chorus:
You are near
To all who call upon You
And You hear
The voice of all who fear You
Oh bless the Lord
Hallelujah
Let all flesh bless Your name 
Forever and ever.
 
You preserve all who love You, in Your mercy 
And all Your saints shall bless Your holy name
Your kingdom O Lord, is everlasting
Your promises are faithful and kind
To all those who are falling
Almighty God upholds you
To all who  are bowed down
The Lord will raise you up
 
Hallelujah
To the Father and the Son
To the Holy Spirit
The faithful three in one
Hallelujah
To the Father and the Son
To the Holy Spirit
The faithful three in one
Amen 

Part one of a two part meditation on this grace filled Psalm. John Andrew Schreiner sings "Your Mercy Is Over Us".

Lyrics for "Your mercy is over us"
 
I will extoll You
O Christ,  my King
Every day I’ll bless you
Every night I’ll sing
 
Chorus:
How gracious and merciful
So good to all
How slow to anger
Abounding in love
Your mercy is over us      
 
I will set my mind
On Your glorious splendor
II’ll sing of Your great work
To every  generation 
 
 
My Savior, my Provider, my Shepherd, my King
 
Great is the Lord
Greatly to be praised
Unsearchable greatness
With love and power to save
  
Chorus:
How gracious and merciful
You are so good to all
How slow to anger
Abounding in love
Your mercy is over us    

What does it mean to embrace correction? What is true friendship? This is an especially pertinent topic for our times, when we see our churches full of division. Izzi Ray sings "It's Your Kindness"

Lyrics to "It's Your Kindness"
Humble me O Lord
When my heart is proud
Let the righteous strike me
If I follow the crowd
A word from my sister
In and out of season
To save me from danger
Because my spirit needs it

Chorus
I need kindness
An act of a friend
Keeping watch
Over the door of my lips
Turn my eyes away 
From the trap of temptation
By your grace, turn my eyes
Back to You   
By your grace, O Christ, turn my eyes
Back to You
 
 
Can I sit at the table
If I hate correction
If I cannot tell evil
Or the fruit of deception
Let me love the Word of truth
And Your word of reproof
From a stranger or a friend 
As though it came from You
 
Bring me to the table
By the hand my friend 
Don’t let me wander
To the bitter end
