I WILL REST IN YOU LORD

The heavens tell of Your glory Lord
I will rest in You
My soul now sings Your praises Lord
I will rest in You
I will rest in You Lord
I will rest in You
For now and forever
Your love to me is true
I will rest in You Lord
I will rest in You

The days speak Your silent wisdom Lord
I will rest in You
The nights show off Your splendor Lord
I will rest in You
I will rest in You Lord
I will rest in You
For now and forever
Your love to me is true
I will rest in You Lord
I will rest in You

When the tempest storms be heavy Lord
I will rest in You
And when my way seems lost Lord
I will rest in you
I will rest in You Lord
I will rest in You
For now and forever
Your love to me is true
I will rest in You Lord
I will rest in You

The love of God is greater far
Than tongue or pen can ever tell
It goes beyond the highest star
And reaches to the lowest hell

Have you ever just sat and watched one of God's light shows, during a thunder storm? Or, looked up to the heavens and attempted to count the stars on a bright moon lit night?

In this great hymn of praise, David reflects on the glory of God in natural revelation. Day and night the created universe broadcasts its silent but eloquent symphony to the glory of the Creator. The communication is nonverbal. Just consider the sun's effects. Why even a blind person can feel the results of the Creator.

And at the Psalms end (Psalm 19:14), we have the famous benediction often quoted by many. Yes, without speaking a word, God shows off His glory.
