On a cold dark starry night,
God grabbed a hand full of stars
Turned them into a golden chariot
To ride across the Milky Way
He walks through other worlds
Lord, thank you for my blessings,
Because, your hands are full of stars

My last drop of water

I walk by faith

All The Grace And The Glory
Stu Harley Dec 2013
God maketh man
who breathed life
clapped His hands
uplifted the heavens
and the earth
maketh the light
run away from
the darkness and
separated the waters
from the air

made it so
his footprint everywhere
maketh the mountains grow
the valley's low
the power and the majesty
Lord we know and
we give thee all
the grace and the glory
yes He maketh so
