// Sovereign Over Us / Reign In Us //

I didn’t write either of these songs in this little medley.

I was introduced to Sovereign Over Us (Aaron Keyes) by my friend Amy who sent it to me while she studying abroad a few years back and these lyrics immediately made this one of my favorite songs. Reign In Us (Starfield) is a song we would often lead at the young adults group at New Song Community Church back in the day, so it has a special place in my heart as well. Special shout out to my squad Heather, Marcus, and Fallon.

These are put here at the end of this project as a benediction of sorts for anyone who may listen. My prayer for you and for me is that our hearts would come under the sovereignty of the one true King who reigns over all the earth. I pray that we would make this our prayer:

"Reign, please reign in us
Come purify our hearts
We need Your touch
Come cleanse us like a flood
And send us out
So the world may know You reign
You reign in us"

FIN [THE END]

lyrics

// Sovereign Over Us (Aaron Keyes) //

Verse 1:
There is strength within the sorrow
There is beauty in our tears
And You meet us in our mourning
With a love that casts out fear

You are working in our waiting
Sanctifying us
When beyond our understanding
You're teaching us to trust

Chorus:
Your plans are still to prosper
You have not forgotten us
You're with us in the fire and the flood

Faithful forever
Perfect in love
You are sovereign over us

Verse 2:
You are wisdom unimagined
Who could understand Your ways?
Reigning high above the heavens
Reaching down in endless grace

You’re the Lifter of the lowly
Compassionate and kind
You surround and You uphold me
And Your promises are my delight

Bridge:
Even what the enemy means for evil
You turn it for our good
You turn it for our good
And for Your glory

Even in the valley, You are faithful
You’re working for our good
You’re working for our good
And for Your glory

// Reign In Us (Starfield) //

Chorus:
O Great and Mighty One
With one desire we come
That You would reign
That You would reign in us

We’re offering up our lives
A living sacrifice
That You would reign
That You would reign in us

Bridge:
So reign, please reign in us
Come purify our hearts
We need Your touch

Come cleanse us like a flood
And send us out
So the world may know You reign
You reign in us
