MP3: Days Of Awe FDFN

Forty Days and Forty Nights
Songs of Contemplation and Intimacy V3

A voice is calling, "Clear the way for the LORD in the wilderness;
Make smooth in the desert a highway for our God.”
Isaiah 40:3 NASB

Recently I was called of the Lord to undertake a 40 day fast.
Using a book by my friend, Dean Briggs, as a source of
encouragement, I daily awoke and sought the face of
God for a song that would help me communicate the
depths of my heart. That book Consumed:40 Days of Fasting, Repentance & Rebirth was such a wonderful encouragement. Just
knowing someone else had gone through what I was
going through helped spur me on to overcome the
desires of my flesh and place myself in a position
to be ravished by God’s Love. On day 23 of that fast
this song was born. What can I say? Regardless of
the state of circumstances I find myself in at any
given moment, be they stormy seas or tranquil skies,
God never changes. He is constant in times of conflict
and constant in times of peace. That makes each and
every day a DAY OF AWE. Use this song to remind
yourself of the sheer unimaginable magnitude of God…and
stand each day in awe that such a God wants to know you
intimately and only wants what is best for you!

Key: Bb

Verse

When You touch the sky Lightning kisses the ground

When You touch the earth mercy falls all around

Those are days of mercy

Days of grace and awe

When You touch one heart and that heart is renewed

When You calm a storm and send the sun shining through

Those are days of mercy

Days of grace and awe

Chorus

And I stand, stand in awe

And I declare You are my God

You are the Maker and Redeemer and the Lord of all I am

You are Love! You are my life!

You are the grace by which I stand!

In these days of fear and chaos

You are peace to broken hearts

In the darkness shine Your light and show how near You really are

You are my God!

You are my God and these are days of awe!

Verse
When I wake from sleep to find another day

When I feel the joy that comes from seeking Your face

Those are days of mercy

Days of grace and awe

When You call my name I feel the joy of Your smile

When I feel You near through every dark weary mile

Those are days of mercy

Days of grace and awe

Chorus
