It’s Melodic Monday! Today’s song is You Never Let Go by Matt Redman. This is a song for every Christian pilgrim. There will always be valleys of the shadow of the death in our lives. There will always be moments of darkness along the way. But, as we know, that is not the end of the story for Christians. God is bigger than our troubles. God is wiser than our problems. God is more than we ever need. So we can confidently walk in faith and know that we will never be alone on our journey. God is wherever we go and he will never let go of us. Alleluia!

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death
Your perfect love is casting out fear
And even when I’m caught in the middle of the storms of this life
I won’t turn back
I know You are near

And I will fear no evil
For my God is with me
And if my God is with me
Whom then shall I fear?
Whom then shall I fear?

Chorus:
Oh no, You never let go
Through the calm and through the storm
Oh no, You never let go
In every high and every low
Oh no, You never let go
Lord, You never let go of me

And I can see a light that is coming for the heart that holds on
A glorious light beyond all compare
And there will be an end to these troubles
But until that day comes
We’ll live to know You here on the earth

Chorus:

Yes, I can see a light that is coming for the heart that holds on
And there will be an end to these troubles
But until that day comes
Still I will praise You, still I will praise You  

Gracious God,
Thank you for loving us,
Thank you for caring for us,
Thank you for protecting us from evil.
Thank you for never letting go of us.
Thank you for knowing us inside and out.
Thank you for inviting us into your presence.
Thank you, thank you, thank you!
In Jesus’ name,
Amen
