Worship Set 10 - "In Control"

​Life can get crazy sometimes.  As we look forward and focus on worshipping God at the beginning of this new decade, it seems that life has gotten crazier than normal.  It seems that many people I know of or have brushed shoulders with over the past month have either lost a loved one, experienced a family emergency, had an accident, or are knee deep in medical challenges.  Life can become overwhelming at times, but there is One who is constant and never changing.  The God of yesterday, today, and tomorrow is reliable and totally in control.  Today’s song feature celebrates and declares our faith in that truth.

​“In Control” by Hillsong Worship is a timely song for us to sing and ponder.  When things get crazy around us and start feeling out of control, we need to remind ourselves Who is in control and declare our trust in Him.  My favorite part of this song is the powerful declaration of faith in the chorus.

“I lift my hands to heaven
Hear my heart surrendered
I tell myself again
You are Lord of all
 
Though the seas are ranging
You can speak and tame them
In You I find my rest
You are in control.” 

​I don’t know your story.  Maybe 2020 has started out well for you or maybe you’re in the darkest hour of your life.  No matter what season or place of life you’re in, this song still speaks truth.  So I pray that as you read the lyrics and listen to the song, you will join me in worshipping our God and Father who is always in control.  Here’s “In Control” by Hillsong Worship.

"In Control"
by Hillsong Worship

From Heaven You can hear
I know You're drawing near
As I worship

Held within Your love
The wind and waves will come
But I will stay here

I lift my hands to Heaven
Here my heart surrendered
I tell my soul again
You are Lord of all

And though the seas are raging
You will speak and tame them
In You I find my rest
You are in control

Through valleys I will trust
Your spirit is enough, to keep me walking
You guide my every step
Speak life to me again
Lord I need You
Oh I need You

I lift my hands to Heaven
Here my heart surrendered
I tell my soul again
You are Lord of all

And though the seas are raging
You will speak and tame them
In You I find my rest
You are in control

I will trust in only You
No one can add to Your perfection
You're the beginning and the end
More than I can comprehend
There is no one like You
No one

I will trust in only You
No one can add to Your perfection
You're the beginning and the end
More than I can comprehend
There is no one like You
Jesus

I lift my hands to Heaven
Here my heart surrendered
I tell my soul again
You are Lord of all

And though the seas are raging
You will speak and tame them
In You I find my rest
You are in control
