Sometimes we hear the complaint about singing the same old songs in church. Or we buy new CD's and MP3's because we want to hear something new.
There's one song that is sung continually and never gets old.
"Holy, holy, holy is the Lord God Almighty,
Who was an dis and is to come!" (Rev 4:8)
The four living creatures say this continually before God's throne. They never tire of saying it and they never change it. God never tires of hearing it. It is the constant praise before God.
He is holy - separated from sin. Perfect in all He says, does and thinks.
He is Lord - sovereign ruler over all creation.
He is God - creator, covenant-keeper, worthy of worship, supreme
He is almighty - all-powerful. Nothing is beyond His power and control.
Who was - He has always existed. As far back as I can think, and then even further.
Who is - He exists now. He is present and active in every second, every breath.
Who is to come - He will be there tomorrow and the next day and the next day. Even when there are no more tomorrows, He'll still be there.
He is worthy of the same praise from me. He is worthy of my obedience.
