Beyond Measure

Beyond Measure

God knows what the future holds

As we go on our way,

And our Lord hears our every word

Before we even pray.



He watches where the sparrow falls

And where each foot has tread,

He even knows the number

Of the hairs upon each head.



He makes the clouds His chariot

And Heaven is His throne,

He walks upon the wings of wind

Where eagle has not flown.



The Lord is clothed with majesty,

He cloaks Himself with light;

He sits upon the vault of earth

And none can match His might.



The Lord's voice makes the deer to calve

And wilderness to shake,

The Lord's voice hews out flames of fire

And makes the cedars break.



The Lord takes pleasure in His own,

Their praise is His delight;

He hearkens to their every cry

And puts their fears to flight.



He bottles every tear we cry,

So special is His care;

He promised not to leave us,

To go with us everywhere.



Creator of the universe,

The Lord of wisdom knew ~

He blessed me beyond measure

On the day that He made you.
