He Fails Us Not!

^{Romans 8: 38-39}

³⁸ And I am convinced that nothing can ever separate us from God’s love. Neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither our fears for today nor our worries about tomorrow—not even the powers of hell can separate us from God’s love. ³⁹ No power in the sky above or in the earth below—indeed, nothing in all creation will ever be able to separate us from the love of God that is revealed in Christ Jesus our Lord. 

On face book, I posted this song.  I wanted to post here to remind me and maybe to encourage you that no matter what we are going through...God does not fail us.  I think the words of the song remind us that there is nothing that we could ever do to separate us from the love of God...not our failure, not our worry, not our lost-ness, not our sin, not our shame, not our mistakes, not our suffering, not our secrets, not the hate we feel, not the terror we face, not our darkness, nor our doubt, not our even our despair, not even death.  Nothing can keep God from chasing after us and loving us.  He will not fail you.  Say out loud what you are going through.  Once you say it, then shout, "He fails me not!" 

Failure doesn't phase you.
Worry doesn't win.
Lost doesn't leave you afraid to start again.
Our sin doesn't shock you.
Our shame doesn't shame you at all.
Mistakes do not move you.
Terror doesn't tame.
Death doesn't doom you to life in the grave.
Our suffering doesn't scare you.
Our secrets won't surprise you at all.
At all.

There is nothing above you.
There is nothing beyond you.
There is nothing that you can't do.
There is no one beside you.
There is no one that's like you.
There is nothing that you can't do.
Whatever will come, we'll rise above.
You fail us not, You fail us not.
No matter the war, our hope is secure.
You fail us not, You fail us not.
You fail us not.

Hatred doesn't hide you.
Evil doesn't ail.
Despair can't disguise you and tell you that you fail.
Our doubt doesn't daunt you.
Our darkness won't defeat you at all.
At all.

There is nothing above you.
There is nothing beyond you.
There is nothing that you can't do.
Whatever will come, we'll rise above.
You fail us not, You fail us not.
No matter the war, our hope is secure.
You fail us not, You fail us not.
Whatever will come, we'll rise above.
You fail us not, You fail us not.
No, You fail us not.You fail us not. not.

You are bigger than the battle
You are bigger than the battle
You are bigger than the battle
has ever been! ever been!
