Here is a simple chorus from the 1970’s church. Easy to sing and easy to catch. That’s the beauty of it, really. As much as I love Gregorian chant and Bach and intricate harmonies, being able to join the chorus on the first round can really be a gift. I’m praying my kids go to sleep with this truth ringing in their ears, “Our God reigns.”
“How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of those who bring good news, who proclaim peace, who bring good tidings, who proclaim salvation, who say to Zion, “Your God reigns!” Isaiah 52:7
He reigns at all times and in all circumstances. He reigns in all sovereignty during peace times and pandemics, during joy and sorrow, during waiting and receiving.
And this is indeed good news. Our universe is ordered by an all-knowing, all-powerful being and as an added bonus, this being loves us enough to send His one and only Son in the form of a baby, so rock our world and draw us all back to him.
All we have to do is claim Him as our own. Our God reigns.
