I Will Say

The words to the song, "I Will Say" just really clicked today. I've listened to it a million times, but today was different. It is kind of a long song by today's standards, but if you get a chance to listen to it, it's on Fred Hammond's "Speak Those Things: POL Chapter 3 " CD. This is my favorite Fred Hammond CD. But then again, I love just about anything Fred Hammond! :-)
Here are the lyrics below. The bold emphasis is mine.



"I Will Say " by Fred Hammond

(Verse 1)
The hills are steep and rough is the road
Nothing to fear as long as I know
I'm not alone, Lord, You're here with me
I'm in Your care yes this I believe
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah

(Chorus A)
To encourage my soul
I will say
In Him will I trust
And I will say
You're God and You will never change
And I will say
You're more than enough

(Channel 1)
To hurt or to heal
To break or to mend
Power is all inside
And since You gave the power to me, yeah
That's what I'll say, yeah

(Verse 2)
And when my walls come tumbling down
Shadows of death just hanging around
I will not fear 'cause You're here with me, yeah
I'm in Your care yes this I believe

(Chorus A)
To encourage my soul
I will say
In Him will I trust
And I will say
You're God and You will never change
And I will say
You're more than enough

(Channel 2)
To fall or to fly
To stand or to hide
You know the choice is mine
So by the power given to me
I'm gonna say

(Bridge)
My fountain of joy
My river of life
My maker and my redeemer
My rest and my peace
My rock and my truth
And all of these things I will say

(Chorus B)
To encourage my soul
And I will say
In You will I trust
I will say
You're God and You will never change
And I will say
You're more than enough

(Vamp)
I will say, I will say, I will say
Speak life into my soul
I'll speak life
(Repeat-Out)

======================================

It would behoove us to do what Jesus did...He SPOKE LIFE!

"This is what we speak, not in words taught us by human wisdom but in words taught by the Spirit, expressing spiritual truths in spiritual words." 1 Corinthians 2:13

"Speak to one another with psalms, hymns and spiritual songs. Sing and make music in your heart to the Lord," Ephesians 5:19

"If anyone speaks, he should do it as one speaking the very words of God. If anyone serves, he should do it with the strength God provides, so that in all things God may be praised through Jesus Christ. To him be the glory and the power for ever and ever. Amen. " 1 Peter 4:11
