God of my Everything

Bebo Norman hosted a concert at my college this past Thursday evening and since he was there he decided to lead worship for us at chapel as well. He sang two songs that are commonly heard on the radio, then he played one for us that he wrote for a friend. It is called God of my Everything. This song portrays God in a way I've never looked at him. Sure, God is my refuge, my strength, and my provider, but never have I given so much thought to him being God of my EVERYTHING. I continue to play this song over in my head and repeat the chorus to constantly remind myself of this simple truth. God is in constant watch over us and that is something we must never forget. No matter what we are going through he knows and understands. God IS everything.
"Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever." -Hebrews 13:8
I hope these lyrics mean as much to someone else as they do to me. 

Oh God of Heaven come and hem me in
Gather the pieces that are broken
Show me the wonder of You again
Oh God of Heaven

God of my hope, God of my need
God of my pain that no one else will ever see
God of my healing, God of my strength
God who has always and will forever reign
God of my everything

In all creation You call my name
In all the beauty that this world displays
Still I'm the one for who Your heart aches
In all creation

God of my hope, God of my need
God of my pain that no one else will ever see
God of my healing, God of my strength
God who has always and will forever reign
God of my everything 
God of my everything

And when the mountains shake
You are my God
You never change

And when the earth gives way
You are still God
You never change

God of my hope, God of my need
God of my pain that no one else will ever see
God of my healing, God of my strength
God who has always and will forever reign
God of my everything
God of my everything
God of my everything
God of my everything
