Tuesday Tunes: Edition 2

This week I'm putting in a song some of you may not have heard before. It's my probably favourite worship song, based on Psalm 62 and written by Aaron Keyes and Stuart Townend. It's called My Soul Finds Rest in God Alone.

My soul finds fest in God alone
My Rock and my salvation
A fortress strong against my foes
And I will not be shaken.
Though lips may bless and hearts may curse
And lies like arrows pierce me
I'll fix my heart on righteousness
I'll look to him who hears me

Oh, praise Him, hallelujah,
My delight and my reward
Everlasting, never failing,
My redeemer, my God.

There are two more verse after this, but I haven't the patience to type it all out. Copying and pasting isn't working for me right now. Instead, I'll suggest you watch Aaron Keyes perform the whole song here.

I've had a crazy time this year with my health, my friendships, my study load and my future. But this song has been a huge blessing, in keeping the words of the Psalm in my mind - that in all my busyness, it is only in God that I will find rest. And He provides not only rest, but a safe and loving embrace when we feel (or know) the world is against us. In Him, I will not be shaken.
