Foundations
Job uses the word foundations to describe creation of the earth. Proverbs does the same thing. Foundation is the bases of what we have to build on- as far as structure from chord progressions to the transforamtion of our very lives! (Luke 6:48) The church (Eph 2:20) and our finances (1 Tim 6:17-19) and God’s truth (2 Tim 2:19) This is a worship song based on Proverbs 9. You are invited into a house of wisdom designed by God himself. He has laid the foundation right here, right now from where you are standing. Make this House church your Home where God the Father, Jesus the Son, and the Holy Spirit can dwell. Look up…
Lord in the morniing I direct my prayer unto you
and I will look up!
Psalm 5:3- sing that again.
Lord in the morniing I direct my prayer unto you
and I will look up.
and I watch for you.. I do
I watch for you.
Built to last this strong foundation
Everlasting a home to the wise
Forget the past all you nations
never ending is the new sunrise
Let it rise! Let is rise!
Run fast past your old temptations
passing the ways of lying eyes
The downcast of low reputation
need a word from our Lord on High
Let it rise, Let’s all rise with the sun
Let it rise, we will rise with the son!
Chorus:
And on to the bright sky, look upward
Bring praise towards the sky
and on your mind look forward
sing out to the Lord on High
Let it rise! Let us rise to the things he calls us to
Rise!
Bridge: On your lips bring your offering
Worthy of all the songs we sing
and on every heart to Him we bring
our everything, Bring my everything!
Building up from this strong foundation
everlasting is the Word to the wise
reaching outward to all of the nations
Give Glory to the Lord most high
Let it rise- Let it rise
Let His song rise, above us all
Let’s rise.
Chorus:
And on to the bright sky, look upward
Bring praise towards the sky
and on your mind look forward
Giving Glory to the Lord most high
We will die to ourselves, we will rise with the Son,
Spirit of God fill me, Fill us Lord Jesus! 2 x
All rise, we rise precious Lord, our eyes on you
We rise, sunrise, we put our trust in you!
“For he (Abraham) was looking forward to the city with foundations, whose architect and builder is God…” Hebrews 11:10
Invitations of Wisdom and Folly
9 Wisdom has built her house;
she has set up[a] its seven pillars.
2 She has prepared her meat and mixed her wine;
she has also set her table.
3 She has sent out her servants, and she calls
from the highest point of the city,
4 “Let all who are simple come to my house!”
To those who have no sense she says,
5 “Come, eat my food
and drink the wine I have mixed.
6 Leave your simple ways and you will live;
walk in the way of insight.”

The foundations of our lives, the foundations of our creation and what Jesus wants to build in us!
We are the church. God wants to build His temple inside of you. When someone asks what does the church look like? It resembles and is made in the image of God and there is a strong family resembling His eyes. When you look at people today, look for the family eyes. Fix your eyes.

Verse 2:
Fair are the meadows, fairer still the woodlands
Robed in the blooming garb of spring;
Jesus is fairer, Jesus is purer
Who makes the woeful heart to sing.
Verse 3:
Fair is the sunshine, fairer still the moonlight,
And all the twinkling starry host;
Jesus shines brighter, Jesus shines purer
Than all the angels heav'n can boast.
Verse 4:
Beautiful Savior! Lord of the nations!
Son of God and Son of man!
Glory and honor, praise, adoration
Now and forevermore be Thine!
Meadowgrass and other things that last
replace the hissing lawns that hedge away my past
Growing trees, farmers on their knees, afresh with prayer
bring new melodies- grow it in me, build it in me
a new house of worship in my veins
let it flow out of me this day.
And this is my song for you
this is your song of truth
Moment of truth
our song to you
and this is my song to you
this is your song of truth
this is our moment of truth
this is our song.
Lives planted and nourished and guided
nourished still- your perfect will in me
minds granted wisdom’s call
spreading out to the land to all
Harvest fall
And this is my song for you
this is your song of truth
Moment of truth
our song to you
and this is my song to you
this is your song of truth
this is our moment of truth
this is our song.
Flowers planted against the wailing wall
reminds us all of the battle worth fighting for our children’s lives
Pictures are painted in backdrops of faces of one and all
the ones who were taken too soon and the ones who survived.
and you were the one who gave your life
In the meadowgrass the time won’t last
a dancing child barefoot and twirling in the past
the growing trees, grow taller with prayers of the farmers on their knees
the fresh poetry that you grew in me
won’t you build it in me- this new house of worship that flows out of my veins.
And this is my song for you
this is your song of truth
Moment of truth
our song to you
and this is my song to you
this is your song of truth
this is our moment of truth
this is our song.
