God of This City-Chris Tomlin

You're the God of this city
You're the King of these people
You're the Lord of this nation
You Are

Bridge:
For there is no one like our God
There is no one like our God

Chorus 1:
Greater things have yet to come
Great things are still to be done
In this city
Greater things are still to come
And greater things are still to be done here

Verse 2:
You're the Lord of Creation
The Creator of all things
You're the King above all Kings
You Are

You're the strength in our weakness
You're the love to the broken
You're the joy in the sadness
You Are

Chorus 2:
Greater things have yet to come
Great things are still to be done
In this city
Where glory shines from hearts alive
With praise for you and love for you
In this city

Greater things have yet to come
Great things are still to be done
In this city
Greater things are still to come
And greater things are still to be done here

Ever get a song stuck in your head?? Well this one has been in mine a week now. Lyrics usually speak to me sometimes more than words. I just can't imagine or grasp the concept that greater things are yet to be done. How awesome is that? The incredible thing about that is I get to be a part of it..we all do if we are saved. Are you one of those that is looking for "greater things that are yet to come?" Hebrews 13:14 says..."For here we have no lasting city, but we seek the city that is to come." Just read the words to that song again, and let them soak in. Please don't be one of those people who think that God is finished...know that He is the God of the City, King of these people, and Lord of this nation.

On a more lighter note..I'm heading home this afternoon, and taking some vacation time. So I'm not sure how often I will be able to post. Happy Wednesday :)
