All these things

Release
2021

(C) Glen B Powell 2019

This song starts from the truth that everything belongs to God (Psalm 22:1) and that we ourselves are created by God. It then goes on to explore free will in the context of God’s sovereignty. That might sound a bit academic but it’s got a nice tune. The chorus is “All these things are Yours, We hold them for a moment. Our lives are but a shadow and an instant. Yet you care for us and leave us space to make a difference in Your plan.”

All these things – Lyrics

The world and everything in it is the Lord’s
Our lives and everyone in them are Yours
Our bodies and our minds
Our thoughts and our desires
You gave us all these things to do Your work

Your purpose gives our lives their meaning Lord
Give us hope and grace when we fall short
Help us give up our possessions
To make earth more like heaven
So that all we keep is truly Yours

All these things are Yours
We hold them for a moment
Our lives are but a shadow and an instant
Yet you care for us and leave us space to make a difference
In Your plan, in Your plan

Every creature in the land or sea
All those things that fly, every plant and every tree
Every mountain that we climb
Hidden seams of wealth we mine
All these gifts were never ours to keep

We hold them for a moment
Our lives are but a shadow and an instant
Yet you care for us and leave us space to make a difference
In Your plan, in Your plan

You are the Lord of everything we have and everything we are
And everyone we love
You are our Lord, Our light and direction
You are our breath and hope
Lord of everything

All these things are Yours
We hold them for a moment
Our lives are but a shadow and an instant
Yet you care for us and leave us space to make a difference
In Your plan, in Your plan
