Why I Love Sovereign Grace

Just read the lyrics to this new song that was recorded tonight at WorshipGod 2011. This is why I love Sovereign Grace so much, the lyrics of their songs are just so rich. There's no messing around, there's no wishy-washy lyrics just to fit a tune. Music is secondary, still done excellently, but definitely secondary. This is what I want our church to be singing.


Come Praise and Glorify
Bob Kauflin and Tim Chester


Come praise and glorify our God the Father of our Lord.
In Christ he has in heav'ly realms His blessings on us poured.
For pure and blameless in His sight He destined us to be,
and now we've been adopted through His Son eternally.

Chorus
To the praise of your glory, to the praise of Your mercy and grace
To the praise of Your glory, You are the God who saves.

Come praise and glorify our God who gives His grace in Christ.
In Him our sins are washed away redeemed through sacrifice.
In Him God has made known to us the mystery of His will
That Christ should be the head of all His purpose to fulfill

Come praise and glorify our God for we've believed the Word
And through our faith we have a seal the Spirit of the Lord.
The Spirit guarantees our hope until redemption's done
Until we join in endless praise to God, the Three-in-One.
