Snow Retreat helped me discover Chris Tomlin. I love the lyrics that he chooses to use! At the SLC Retreat, we took a late night walk around the Eastern Washington neighborhood. I had my iPod, so I started browsing the songs. "Holy is the Lord" stood out, and I kept listening to it non-stop. It was so wonderful... the sky was clear, the stars were bright, and I was reminded of His glory and awesome power. What a special reminder! However repetitive the words may seem, they bring a powerful message: God is HOLY! Here's the lyrics:
We stand and lift up our hands for the joy of the Lord is our strength!
We bow down and worship Him now, how great, how awesome is He!
And together we sing:
Holy is the Lord God Almighty, the earth is filled with His glory!
Holy is the Lord God Almighty, the earth is filled with His glory!
The earth is filled with His glory!
We stand and lift up our hands, for the joy of the Lord is our strength!
We bow down and worship Him now, how great, how awesome is He!
And together we sing, and everyone sing:
Holy is the Lord God Almighty, the earth is filled with His glory!
Holy is the Lord God Almighty, the earth is filled with His glory!
The earth is filled with His glory!
Yeah it's rising up all around!
It's the anthem of the Lord's renown!
It's rising up all around!
It's the anthem of the Lord's renown!
And together we sing, everyone sing:
Holy is the Lord God Almighty, the earth is filled with His glory!
Holy is the Lord God Almighty, the earth is filled with His glory!
The earth is filled with His glory!
The earth is filled with His glory!
Holy, holy is the Lord Almighty! Holy, holy! Holy, holy is the Lord Almighty! Holy, holy!
Holy, holy is the Lord Almighty! Holy, holy...
We stand and lift up our hands for the joy of the Lord is our strength!
We bow down and worship Him now, how great, how awesome is He!
And together we sing:
Holy is the Lord God Almighty, the earth is filled with His glory!
Holy is the Lord God Almighty, the earth is filled with His glory!
The earth is filled with His glory!
We stand and lift up our hands, for the joy of the Lord is our strength!
We bow down and worship Him now, how great, how awesome is He!
And together we sing, and everyone sing:
Holy is the Lord God Almighty, the earth is filled with His glory!
Holy is the Lord God Almighty, the earth is filled with His glory!
The earth is filled with His glory!
Yeah it's rising up all around!
It's the anthem of the Lord's renown!
It's rising up all around!
It's the anthem of the Lord's renown!
And together we sing, everyone sing:
Holy is the Lord God Almighty, the earth is filled with His glory!
Holy is the Lord God Almighty, the earth is filled with His glory!
The earth is filled with His glory!
The earth is filled with His glory!
Holy, holy is the Lord Almighty! Holy, holy! Holy, holy is the Lord Almighty! Holy, holy!
Holy, holy is the Lord Almighty! Holy, holy...

Yay--I am no longer the only pink One28 blogger! :) I'm so excited to see you blogging. And I completely agree on Tomlin's music. He uses even the most simple words to usher us into the realization that we're in the presence of God. What an amazing thing when we pay attention. Seeya tomorrow, and hope you get your rest!
Glory. We've added another to the One28 history of Bloggdom! Sweet!
