Worship Notes – June 4, 2023
June 4, 2023One of the many techniques that composers of worship songs use, is to write a text that, with glorified imagination, places us in the Biblical narrative. We’re introducing a new song this week, The Lord Almighty Reigns, that does exactly that — it places us in the midst of the marriage supper of the Lamb. Many portions of the verses and refrain are direct quotations of Revelation 19.
There’s an endless song waiting to be sung
With the voice of every tribe, the sound of every tongue
When the bride of Christ on that day of days
Brings with joy unto the land a multitude of praise
Like the roar of mighty seas and rolls of thunder
Hear His people sing
Hallelujah, hallelujah
For the Lord, Almighty reigns
Hallelujah, hallelujah
For the Lord, our God, the Almighty reigns
Like so many things, we as believers in Christ, have been invited to participate in the eternal praise of God. It is an honor, privilege, and command. May our worship tomorrow sound loud like the rolling of the sea and the clash of thunder. Hallelujah, the Lord, our God, the Almighty reigns!
