Sing The Truth About Grace
June 16, 2006 9:21 am
Here’s another way to be amazed by grace: sing the truth about grace. This is, after all, what we are commanded to do so often in the Psalms:
“Sing praises to God, sing praises! Sing praises to our King, sing praises!” (Ps. 47:6)
“My lips will shout for joy, when I sing praises to you; my soul also, which you have redeemed.” (Ps. 71:23)
“Serve the Lord with gladness! Come into his presence with singing!” (Ps. 100:2)
“Sing to him, sing praises to him; tell of all his wondrous works!” (Ps. 105:2)
“Praise the Lord, for the Lord is good; sing to his name, for it is pleasant!” (Ps. 135:3)
“Sing to the Lord with thanksgiving; make melody to our God on the lyre!” (Ps. 147:7)
Got a favorite worship song? Work to memorize the words. Then sing it wherever you are during your day. (If you have a voice like me, this doesn’t necessarily have to be out loud!) Singing songs you’ve memorized is a great way to meditate on the deep truths of the gospel and a great way to make grace more amazing. I’ve been often singing “Grace Unmeasured” from the WorshipLive album:
Grace unmeasured, vast and free
That knew me from eternity
That called me out before my birth
To bring You glory on this earthGrace amazing, pure and deep
That saw me in my misery
That took my curse and owned my blame
So I could bear Your righteous nameChorus
Grace paid for my sins
And brought me to life
Grace clothes me with power
To do what is right
Grace will lead me to heaven
Where I’ll see Your face
And never cease
To thank You for Your graceGrace abounding, strong and true
That makes me long to be like You
That turns me from my selfish pride
To love the cross on which You diedGrace unending all my days
You’ll give me strength to run this race
And when my years on earth are through
The praise will all belong to YouGrace Unmeasured by Bob Kauflin
