God Of Old

GOD OF OLD, GOD OF THE FUTURE,
God of all life and all space and all time,
Kindly You’ve placed Your hand on this tribe;
We’re marked by Your blood and Your name.

King of kings, King of the kingdom,
King of all honour and glory and power,
Humbly You followed God’s will to the cross
And now rule through vessels of clay.

So Lead us on in this holy adventure.
Fill every heart with courage and grace.
May our lives shine so that others are drawn
To the brightness of Your flame.

Lord of Lords, Lord of the nations,
Lord over demons, dominions and powers,
You rule supreme over heaven and earth.
You hold our respect and our praise.

Though seasons will change
And visions are tested,
Hindered by obstacles, failure and pain,
You cleanse this house
And purge us with fire,
What cannot be shaken for ever remains.
