God Moves In A Mysterious Way - Live - Christian worship song by Graham Kendrick

"God Moves In A Mysterious Way" by Graham Kendrick is from the 2018 album Keep The Banner Flying High.

Graham says of the song: ‘The text for this song was written by William Cowper, an old hymn writer and poet, who suffered from depression. Cowper wrote these words during one of his darkest moments. His words teach us to trust God even when we go through things that we just don't understand’.

Verse 1:
God moves in a mysterious way
His wonders to perform
He plants his footsteps in the sea
And rides upon the storm

Verse 2:
Deep in unfathomable mines
Of never failing skill
He treasures up his bright designs
And works his sovereign will

Verse 3:
Take courage now you fearful saints
The clouds you so much dread
Are big with mercy and shall break
In blessings on your head

Chorus:
And I will trust
The hands that made the starry heavens
And I will trust
The wounds of Calvary
And I will trust
And I will not be afraid
For all his ways are love

Verse 4:
Judge not the Lord by feeble sense
But trust him for his grace
Behind a frowning providence
He hides a smiling face

Verse 5:
His purposes will ripen fast
Unfolding every hour
The bud may have a bitter taste
But sweet will be the flower

Dearest Graham,
Thank you for following the wonderful Inspiration of our LORD HOLY SPIRIT to create these majestic Songs of Worship to our Our LORD, OUR TRIUNE SOVEREIGN.
I awoke singing the chorus of God moves....and that song fitted into to today's verse perfectly.
Numbers 6: 22 to 27
May THE LORD be magnified in all our ways

[judithmalan]

Phenomenal are the ways of our SAVIOUR....

[cynthiaarmstrong]

Written by William Cowper and John Newton, after Cowper met Jesus following a suicide attempt and a stay in an asylum. Such powerful words, Praise the Lord!

God Moves In A Mysterious Way

Jeremy Riddle

God moves in a mysterious way
His wonders to perform
He plants HIs footsteps in the sea
And rides upon the storm

Deep in unsearchable mines
Of never failing skill
He treasures up His bright designs
And works HIs sovereign will

Ye fearful saints, fresh courage take
The clouds you so much dread
Are big with mercy and shall break
In blessings, in blessings
In blessings on your head

Judge not the Lord by feeble sense
But trust Him for His grace
Behind a frowning providence
He hides a smiling face

His purposes will ripen fast
Unfolding every hour
The bud may have a bitter taste
But sweet will be the flower

Blind unbelief is sure to err
And scan His work in vain
God is His own interpreter
And He will make it plain

In His own time
In His own way...
