Before The Day (Track #8)

Last night when I was sleeping
You were watching over me
While I dreamt about tomorrow
You knew my every need

Now another day is waiting
For me to make it through
And there's no way that I could face it without You

Before the day slips away
I want to stop and say
I love You I love You
Before the world rushes in again
I want to stop and say there's none above You
There's none above You
I'll just be still and know You are God
Be still and know You are God

There's something about the morning
The stillness of it all
It calms my heart to hear You
When You gently call

Here I am in Your presence
Where I long to be
Alone with You in the silence
Bring down Your love and Your mercy
Whisper softly to me

The chorus to this song is so powerful and moving. The Psalmist wrote, “He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. I will say of the LORD, "He is my refuge and my fortress; My God, in Him I will trust." Psalms 91:1-2NKJV. It is in the “secret place” that we can truly say, “Before the day slips away, I want to stop and say I love You I love You. Before the world rushes in again, I want to stop and say there's none above You. There's none above You. I'll just be still and know You are God. Be still and know You are God.” Is there a quiet place in your day when you step into a place with God to say “I love You”. My this is convicting. Stop right now, if you have not already today, and just say, “God, I love you. There is none above you. I’ll just be still and know you are God.”
