Burial

Love, as mortals understand the word, isn’t enough. Every natural love will rise again and live forever in this country: but none will rise again until it has been buried…. There is but one good; that is God. Everything else is good when it looks to Him and bad when it turns from Him.

-C.S. Lewis, The Great Divorce

False Gods

Pam, Pam—no natural feelings are high or low, holy or unholy, in themselves. They are all holy when God’s hand is on the rein. They all go bad when they set up on their own and make themselves into false gods.

Psalm 31
©2006 Rough Harbor Music. Words & Music: Cameron Gray, 2006.

In You, O Lord, have I put my trust,
Let me be not ashamed, let me be not ashamed.
Deliver me in Your righteousness,
O revive me once again, revive me once again.

All day let me sing of Thy salvation,
O my Rock and my Foundation,
Be my refuge.
All day, resting in Your righteousness,
For my hope is in Your grace
And I do not know it’s limit.

In You, O Lord, have I put my trust,
Be not far from me, be not far from me.
Deliver me in Your righteousness,
I will praise You more and more, praise You more and more
