Magnify the Lord!

 


Oh, magnify the Lord with me,
And let us exalt His name together.

These beautiful words gotten from Ps.34 (NKJV) were written by King David in a time of deep crisis. Things were so bad that he pretended to be mad in order to escape. But despite this, he still found time to say to those around him “magnify the Lord with me…. let us exalt His name” (Ps. 34:3). How beautiful and inspirational would this have been to those around him?

For any of you that know me, you’d know how much I love music. So, when I heard these words been sung by the Brooklyn Tabernacle choir, it hit all the right spots. And guess what? I heard it when I was going through a trying period. I did as the song and the bible said: this poor man cried! and God heard him.

Over the course of the next few weeks, I will be sharing songs that have blessed me in innumerable ways along with a snippet of the lyrics of the song. I hope they bless you as much (or even more) as they have blessed me. For this week, just like King David did, all I want you to do is MAGNIFY THE LORD WITH ME!

I sought the Lord

And He answered me

And delivered me

From every fear

Those who look on Him

Are radiant

They'll never be ashamed

This poor man cried

And the Lord heard me

And saved me from

My enemies

The Son of God

Surrounds His saints

He will deliver them

Magnify the Lord with me

Come exalt His name together

Glorify the Lord with me

Come exalt His name forever

  

Lyrics: Musixmatch
