In the middle of talking with a friend this morning, a song kept running through my head - the new song "Fail Us Not" by the band 1000 Generations. The song is a prayer to God - a gut honest prayer that deals with the real hurt, real failures, and real dissapointments of life. And yet, in the middle of all those raw emotions, the prayer is one of hope and trust, looking to God to be bigger than the battles that we face in life.
As I was looking online for the lyrics of the song, I ran across an awesome website that 1000 Generations put together. www.failusnot.com Not only is there a music video of the song (which was great to send to my friend), but there are also a number of videos that the band and others have posted, where they talk about how they found hope and healing in God, even in the midst of or after very difficult events. I think you'll be encouraged by hearing these people's stories.
Here are the lyrics to the song, as well...
Fail Us Not
Failure doesn’t phase You, worry doesn’t win,
Loss 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
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’ve failed,
Our doubt doesn’t daunt You,
Our darkness won’t defeat You at all
You’re bigger than the battle,
You are bigger than the battle
You are bigger than the battle has ever been
