This is a modern day hymn by Josh Bales. It's interesting, and I hope you can gain some things from it. The first verse is a simple praise verse, saying that God reigns in every corner of the earth, and He is worthy of our praise. The second verse is about other people. It asks God to provide for those who need help. I like how he asks God to be merciful to those whose pain we've never felt. Sometimes, it's really good to pray for those people in other countries that are suffering. Let's not just pray for those we know. The third verse is for God's own people, who are doing His work; and those who are persecuted for it. The last line is great. In their weakness, be their strength, that they might hope in you. God is always our strength and salvation, let's not doubt it. He sees His children and He is their strength to get through the hardships of this broken world. The fourth verse is about God again, and much of it is a quote from the Lord's Prayer. But, at the end it affirms that we are waiting to see Christ's face. I hope we can truly get to a point in our lives where we long to see Christ's face, and we can say with Paul, "I desire to depart and be with Christ, which is better by far; but it is more necessary for you that I remain in the body." (Philippians 1:23-24).
1. There is no place in all the world You do not call Your own.
Creator of all peoples every, nation every tongue.
From every corner of the earth, boundless is Your reign.
Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, hear us sing Your praise.
2. We Your people call to You, asking for Your help.
God be merciful to those whose pain we've never felt.
Give them rest from worldly sorrow,
Bless them Lord with food to eat.
We ask You, Gentle Shepherd call,
The ones that are Your sheep.
3. All seeing Lord now look to those in city and in field,
Who seek to spread Your fame and love,
this broken world to heal.
See Your persecuted children, soothe their violent wounds.
In their weakness be their strength, that they might hope in You.
4. Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, may Your kingdom come
In all the earth as it is in heaven, may Your will be done.
In all the world in all our hearts, Jesus You are King.
We wait, we hope, we trust, we know,
Your face we soon shall see.
