ROYAL, REGAL AND RIGHTEOUS

Royal, Regal and Righteous
Is our God, the King;
And He makes my heart sing.
He rules the universe.
He reigns supreme.
 
But does He rule my heart?
Or do I live from Him apart?
Do I tremble at His Word?
Did I listen? Have I heard?
 
His voice I want to hear.
It isn't loud. It isn't clear.
But maybe I wasn't near
Enough, I fear.
Oh, Dear !
 
Oh, Lord,
I repent, I confess.
 
I'll not be clean unless
You do Your work
On my heart.
That's a start.
Wash me, cleanse me.
I want to be free
Of me;
To worship Thee.

 

Psalm 99:1 The Lord reigns; let the people tremble.

Jeremiah 5:21-15 Now hear this, O foolish people without understanding; which have eyes, and see not; which have ears, and hear not; FEAR ye not me? says the LORD; will you not tremble at my presence?

Isaiah 66: 1,2,5 Thus says the Lord, The heaven is my throne, and the earth is my footstool: .......to this man will I look: the man who has a contrite spirit, and trembles at my WORD.
