I surely enjoy sharing music with you on Monday mornings. It’s such a great beginning to my week. I get to choose from thousands and thousands of hymns, spiritual songs and praise music each week and present the one to you that has touched me the most.

Today’s song is no different, except that it is a reminder to us that we really cannot encapsulate God in a few words of a song. He is greater and mightier and more loving and more gracious than human words could possibly write.

So I love Lincoln Brewster’s decision to write about God’s amazingness with this thought in mind. God is more than amazing!

Yes, I agree! My human brain isn’t capable of understanding and comprehending all the amazing things God has done for mankind. From the beginning, God has pursued mankind to have a closer walk with Him. To have a deeper relationship with Him. And throughout the ages, mankind has rejected God’s advances.

But God has never given up. He continues to pursue. Now that is more than amazing!

If you’re like me, you know the mistakes and sins you’ve allowed to penetrate your heart and life. You also know the joy of being drawn back by your Creator. And why does God do all this pursuing? Because He loves you and me! It’s that simple. He loves us. And that in itself is definitely more than amazing!

So, today as you read through these lyrics and listen to the song, I pray that you will be overwhelmed by the amazingness of your God. I pray that you will allow the pursuer to capture your heart. I pray that you will rejoice in the One who rejoices over you. I’m sure at the end of the day you too will say, God is “More Than Amazing!”

“More Than Amazing”

You’re the one who walked on water
And you calmed the raging seas
You command the highest mountains
to fall upon their knees

You’re the one who welcomed sinners
And you opened blinded eyes
You restored the brokenhearted
And you brought the dead to life

Forgetting all our sins
You remember all your promises

Chorus:
You are amazing
More than amazing
Forever our God
You’re more than enough
You are amazing

With authority you’ve spoken
And you’ve set the captive free
You’re the king who came to serve
You’re the God who washed our feet

You’re the one who took our burdens
And you bled upon the cross
In your kindness and your mercy
You became the way for us

Forgetting all our sins
You remember all your promises

(Chorus)

Oh how marvelous
Oh how wonderful
Oh how glorious
You are amazing
Oh how marvelous
Oh how wonderful
Oh how glorious You are

(Chorus)[i]
