Sunday Hymn - My Soul Longs for the Lord

My Soul Longs for the Lord

My soul longs for the Lord in a weary land
Wells are dry and I am empty, only dust in my hands
How I yearn for streams of mercy where my soul can be restored
“Come and drink” Jesus calls me, and you will thirst no more”
Oh the fullness of Christ, Word of God.

Living Word you walked among us, our Emmanuel
And you spoke into the darkness, broke the powers of hell
Grace and mercy flowed from Calvary, to the valley of our need
It is done, “It is finished,” From every sin set free
Oh the victory of Christ, Word of God, Word of life

How often in the stillness have I heard your voice
Every whisper, every promise calls my heart to rejoice
In the quiet of the morning, through the watches of the night
In the fire of my struggles, there’s courage for the fight
Oh the power of Christ, Word of God, Word of life

My soul longs to walk closer with the Lord I serve
More than riches, more than favour I delight in Your Word
Turn my gaze from all that’s worthless, set my heart on things above
May my life tell of your goodness, Your way of truth and love
Oh the wisdom of Christ, Word of God, Word of life

My soul longs for the day I will see your face
Hear Your shout of jubilation, no more tears, death or pain
Every word at last accomplished, Heaven songs and earth replies
To our God be the glory let all creation cry
Praise and honour to Christ, Word of God, Word of life

As the “Father of the Reformation”, Martin Luther is a vital figure in Church History. His sacrifice and willingness to wage battle against the spiritual, religious, and political powers of his medieval world allowed Christians throughout time to embrace the following truths: salvation by grace alone , through faith alone, and in Christ alone, along with the supremacy of Scripture, referred to as Scripture alone, and all of it for God's Glory Alone. These being commonly called the Five Solas of the Reformation. Danika Cooley, author and creator of the Bible curriculum Bible Road Trip , has recently written a book for young people recounting Luther's sto...
