Fail Us Not

I posted this on my Twitter feed a few moments ago, and on Facebook as well.  So for those that peruse my blog once and a while (which is kind of like how I post - once and a while!), you're likely to have seen this elsewhere.  But here it is.


There are some songs that, when I hear them, I can immediately sense the presence of God.  Songs like that I just have to listen to over and over and over again.  This song is one of them.  I'd never heard of this group before, but wow!  This music video will change your view of God - guaranteed.  I'm sitting in my office listening to this just amazed and broken by the Love of God.


We often need to be reminded that, though we fail and fall short, GOD DOES NOT!  Nor is He surprised or changed in His love for us by our failures and shortcomings.  I love the truth of the Word of God in the lyrics, so check 'em our below.  And here is the link to the official music video on YouTube:



Failure doesn’t phase You, worry doesn’t win,
Loss doesn’t leave You afraid to start again,
Our sin doesn’t shock You,
Our shame doesn’t shame You at all
Mistakes do not move You, terror doesn’t tame,
Death doesn’t doom You to life in the grave,
Our suffering doesn’t scare You,
Our secrets won’t surprise You at all
There is nothing above You,
There is nothing beyond You,
There is nothing that You can’t do…
There is no one beside You,
There is no one that’s like You,
There is nothing that You can’t do…
Whatever will come, we’ll rise above,
You fail us not, You fail us not,
No matter the war, our hope is secure,
You fail us not, You fail us not,
You fail us not…
Hatred doesn’t hide You, evil doesn’t ail,
Despair can’t disguise You and tell You that You’ve failed,
Our doubt doesn’t daunt You,
Our darkness won’t defeat You at all
You’re bigger than the battle,
You are bigger than the battle
You are bigger than the battle has ever been
