We’ve been singing another of Jona’s favorite hymns. I’m struck by the significance – for all of us (including you!) – of the last line of the chorus (highlighted in bold font below):
What a privilege to come into God’s presence,
Just to linger with the One who set me free.
As I lift my eyes and see His awesome glory,
I remember who He is and bow the knee.
Bow the knee! Bow the knee!
He is King of all the Ages! Bow the knee!
God alone on His throne!
See Him high and lifted up and bow the knee!
Kneel before Him; all adore Him.
As you live to love Him more, bow the knee.
In His hand He holds the power of creation.
With His voice He spoke, and all things came to be.
Yet He hears each simple prayer I bring before Him
When I humbly seek His face and bow the knee.
Bow the knee! Bow the knee!
He is King of all the Ages! Bow the knee!
God alone on His throne!
See Him high and lifted up and bow the knee!
Kneel before Him; all adore Him.
As you live to love Him more, bow the knee.
Bow the knee!

I do the same thing -- hitting the back button and listening over and over again! In fact, I was pleased to find out that Jona and I share a favorite song! :o)
We appreciate your praying!
