BLAZING  GLORY

 

Psalm 18:16-29, MSG

 

 

They fell away who wished me harm

But me GOD caught—reached all the way

From sky to sea;  

He reached for me

He pulled me out of that ocean of hate

That enemy, chaos, the void in which I was

Drowning

And He reached for me

He stood me up on a wide-open field

I stood there saved—surprised to be loved!

Now my life’s complete,

For He reached for me

He reached for me

I’m blazing with glory!

 

Suddenly, YAHUAH, You floodlight my life;

I’m blazing with glory, God’s glory

For the good people taste Your goodness

The whole people taste Your health,

The true people taste Your truth,

Suddenly, YAHUAH, You floodlight my life;

I’m blazing with glory, GOD’s glory

I’m blazing with glory, GOD’s glory

 

Every day I review the ways He works

I’m alert to YAH’s ways

I don’t take Him for granted

And don’t miss a thing!

He reached for me

When I placed all the pieces before Him

And got my act together, YAHUAH gave me

A fresh start

He reached for me

GOD rewrote the full text of my life

When I opened the book of my heart to His eyes.

I feel put back together,

For He reached for me

He reached for me

I’m blazing with glory!   

 

Suddenly, YAHUAH, You floodlight my life;

I’m blazing with glory, God’s glory

For the good people taste Your goodness

The whole people taste Your health,

The true people taste Your truth,

Suddenly, YAHUAH, You floodlight my life;

I’m blazing with glory, GOD’s glory

I’m blazing with glory, GOD’s glory

PSALM    18  (MSG)

 

16-19 But me He caught—reached all the way
    from sky to sea; He pulled me out
Of that ocean of hate, that enemy chaos,
    the void in which I was drowning.
They hit me when I was down,
    but GOD stuck by me.
He stood me up on a wide-open field;
    I stood there saved—surprised to be loved!

 

20-24 GOD made my life complete
    when I placed all the pieces before Him.
When I got my act together,
    He gave me a fresh start.
Now I’m alert to GOD’s ways;
    I don’t take GOD for granted.
Every day I review the ways He works;
    I try not to miss a thing.
I feel put back together,
    and I’m watching my step.
GOD rewrote the text of my life
    when I opened the book of my heart to His eyes.

 

25-27 The good people taste Your goodness, YAHUAH,
The whole people taste Your health,
The true people taste Your Truth, THE ONLY TRUTH,
And the bad ones - can’t figure You out.
You take the side of the down-and-out,
But the stuck-up You take down a notch.

 

28-29   Suddenly, GOD YAHUAH, You floodlight my life;
    I’m blazing with glory, GOD’s glory!

Suddenly, GOD YAHUAH, You floodlight my life;
    I’m blazing with glory, GOD’s glory
