God's Infinite, Eternal Power

MP3 - God's Infinite, Eternal Power
PDF - God's Infinite, Eternal Power

As I have been mentally and spiritually preparing for General Conference, I have been reading some previous Conference talks. One that I read impressed me so much that I know I had to do a hymn composition. Once again, I turned to my wonderful lyricist, Michael Young, and gave him my vision. Here are the lyrics:

1. The vessel is not greater than the oil that lies within it.
    The fire is so much brighter than the spark that does begin it.
    The sunlight does not come from him who draws back the dark curtain,
    nor does the moon shine on its own but shows the sun for certain.

Chorus
    God's infinite, eternal power does sustain us every hour.

2. God's servants fill their lamps anew through His eternal graces.
    The Spirit's fire is kindled anew where the smile of His face is.
    The sunlight they allow to shine to all those now distressing.
    The greater light reflecting to all those who seek God's blessing.

Chorus
    God's infinite, eternal power does sustain us every hour.

3. Then worthy vessels we must be and servants pure and ready.
    And humble, prayerful we must be on rolling waves or steady.
    So when God calls we too may rise, accept His heavenly power
    for when the bridegroom comes again, we know not when the hour.

Chorus
    God's infinite, eternal power does sustain us every hour.


I hope you enjoy this, and please leave feedback. Thanks!
