I enjoy listening to older praise music. You might call them the oldies or classics. Today\u2019s melody is one that has stood the test of time and is still as popular as it was when it was written in 1984.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"IMAG1489\"<\/a>Like any other praise and worship song, if we aren\u2019t moved to action by the Holy Spirit, we are just flapping our lips. This particular song says that we are willing to give Jesus Lordship and Kingship of our lives. But are we really?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Is Jesus the King of my schedule? My television viewing options? My money? My attitude? My thoughts?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Is Jesus the Lord of my comings and goings? My free time? My purchases? My words? My actions? My eating habits?<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

You know you can ask yourself these same questions. If the answer is yes to some, but not all, then there is work to be done.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Yes, I want Jesus to be the Lord and King over every aspect of my life, but I find that I am weak. I find that I am lazy. I find that I don\u2019t want to make the effort. So I cave and find myself in the same place I\u2019ve always been. Me being the lord and king of my life.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

So today, if you\u2019re like me, you need to offer your life to Jesus yet again and ask Him to be the Lord and King over every aspect of your life. It\u2019s easy to talk the talk, but so rewarding when we walk the walk.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Take a look at the lyrics to this song and see if it might make a difference in your life today. It has for me.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\u201cWe Bow Down\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

You are Lord of the Heavens and Lord of my life
\nLord of the land and the sea
\nYou were Lord of Creation before there was time
\nAnd Lord of all Lords You will be<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

We bow down and we worship You, Lord
\nWe bow down and we worship You, Lord
\nWe bow down and we worship You, Lord
\nLord of all Lords You will be<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

You are King of the Heavens and King of my life
\nKing of the land and the sea
\nYou were King of Creation before there was time
\nAnd King of all Kings You will be<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

We bow down and we crown You the King
\nWe bow down and we crown You the King
\nWe bow down and we crown You the King
\nKing of all Kings You will be[i]<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n
