Letting You Go from Jason Isbell and The 400 Unit’s album Reunions.
A father – daughter song, this track is another example of Isbell’s ability to write, storytell, and sing with heart and empathy about life situations without it being maudlin or sentimental.
Being your daddy comes natural
The roses just know how to grow
It’s easy to see that you’ll get where you’re going
But the hard part is letting you go
The hard part is letting you go
This is the video recorded for Mount Gambier Presbyterian Church for the weekend of May 17, 2020.
What sort of stories are best for a people in exile?
2 Kings chapter 3 reveals what has changed in Israel with the transition from Elijah to Elisha.
Turns out not much has changed about the hearts of the people.
Fortunately, nothing has changed about the heart of God.
Peace Unto Us is from EMU Music.
The rendition below is in the style of the simple lyric videos of hymns and EMU Music songs that have been produced to support churches during the pandemic shutdown of services.
The lyrics:
1.
The image of God in Christ is seen
Creator of earth and living things
High above every other power
Sustainer of every place and hour
Pre-Chorus
Through the sacrifice of Christ the Son
We are reconciled to God above
Chorus
Jesus, fullness of God
He is sovereign over creation
The ruler of every nation
And seated high
Come, church
Sing of his goodness and mercy
Bow to the one who is worthy
Let us adore him the Lord of life
2
Peace unto us through blood poured out
Saviour of all for us came down
The gospel of hope that we have heard
Now is proclaimed in all the earth
Pre-Chorus
Through the sacrifice of Christ the Son
We are reconciled to God above
Chorus
Jesus, fullness of God
He is sovereign over creation
The ruler of every nation
And seated high
Come, church
Sing of his goodness and mercy
Bow to the one who is worthy
Let us adore him the Lord of life
Repeat Chorus
