He Reigns

With Easter approaching, God placed a song in my heart that is resonating all around me. The song title is "He Reigns". The "He" refers to Jesus Christ, His Supremacy here on earth. The lyrics are awesome and they say it all. The song was written by one of the guys from a popular Christian group, The Newsboys. Here is how it goes:

It's the song of the redeemed, Rising from the African plain
It's the song of the forgiven, Drowning out the Amazon rain
The song of Asian believers, Filled with God's holy fire
It's every tribe, every tongue, every nation, A love song born of a grateful choir
It's all God's children singing Glory, glory, hallelujah He reigns, He reigns
It's all God's children singing Glory, glory, hallelujah He reigns, He reigns
Let it rise about the four winds, Caught up in the heavenly sound
Let praises echo from the towers of cathedrals, To the faithful gathered underground
Of all the songs sung from the dawn of creation, Some were meant to persist
Of all the bells rung from a thousand steeples, None rings truer than this
And all the powers of darkness, Tremble at what they've just heard
‘Cause all the powers of darkness, Can't drown out a single word
When all God's children sing out Glory, glory, hallelujah He reigns, He reigns
All God's people singing Glory, glory, hallelujah He reigns, He reigns

So...lets look to Jesus and His Resurrection, for the power to overcome our trials are in Him and His love for us.

Blessings.
