My Awesome King Hebrews 4:16

Most of my songs are based on a particular portion of scripture or a Bible story. Many are songs of testimony. Only a few are purely worship songs. This is one of them, and probably my favourite. 

I posted this one many years ago, but I’ve made some slight lyric changes, so I thought I’d share it again. Unfortunately, in the process, I’ve lost the original post. 

I originally wrote this song for my sister in law, based on info that she sent me. The changes were meant to make the song less specific to her experience, and more relatable to others. I added in some wording from Hebrews 4:16, which speaks of coming boldly before God’s throne of grace. It also happens to be the verse that I chose for this year.

Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.

 (4 bar intro) 

I come before your throne of grace in time of need, 

finding mercy there......

Kneeling at your feet, no words describe the peace,

I'm in your presence, oh, Lord........ 

You reach down to me, with acceptance and love.... 
You make me alive, with the power of your touch........ 

 Kneeling at your feet, 

 Lord, I can see your glory, your power, your majesty...... 

 You opened my eyes to such wonderful things...... 
 I give my whole heart, to you, my Lord and King.......... 
 Kneeling at your feet, 

 Lord, I can see your glory, your power, your majesty......... 

 I lift up my voice..... I lift up my hands. 
 I praise you, oh Lord, with all that I am.......
 Blessing and honour, to you I sing 

 Forever, my awesome King.......
 Forever, my awesome King........
