This week, the chancel choir will lift up "Here, I am Lord" as our anthem. This song is well known and I love to lift it up as my personal promise to the Lord too. We could hear God's voice through the poem how much He loves us. Also, I always get in tears with the last phrase. " I will go Lord, if You lead me. I will hold Your people in my heart". What an honor that I can get to hold His people's heart! I have prayed that I will answer quicker to the Lord in this new year, saying " Yes, Lord! Here I am!!"
Refrain:
Here I am, Lord. Is it I, Lord? I have heard You calling in the night. I will go, Lord, if you lead me. I will hold Your people in my heart.
1. I, the Lord of sea and sky, I have heard my people cry. All who dwell dark and sin my hand will save. I, who made the stars of night, I will make their darkness bright. Who will bear my light to them? Whom shall I send?
2. I, the Lord of snow and rain, I have borne my people's pain. I have wept for love of them. They turn away. I will break their hearts of stone, give them hearts for love alone. I will speak my word to them, whom shall I send?
3.I, the Lord of wind and flame, I will tend the poor and lame, I will set a feast for them. My hand will save. Finest bread I will provide till their hearts be satisfied. I will give my life to them. Whom shall I send?
Let's lift up this song together as our love to the Lord this week!
