God is a God of Blessing and Glory
God is a God of blessing and glory.
He is our history; we are His story,
Formed in His image, made to express
His life and nature, all to bless.
Showers of blessing come in their season.
Ask and God comes, abundantly given;
The God of hope fills us with all joy
That we’d abound, His pow’r employ.
God as the Spirit is our true blessing.
He shepherds us to pastures, expressing
Both tender love and bounteous supply,
Blessings in Christ to multiply.
Showers of blessing come in their season.
Ask and God comes, abundantly given;
The God of hope fills us with all joy
That we’d abound, His pow’r employ.
