OK, as of late this has not been my primary site for my posts, but it was the one that I had the easy access to getting my audio files uploaded to it.
The following began as my simple response to the reading plan that I completed today in conjunction with the ongoing “Everyday Worship” study that my church, Elevation Church is in the middle of.
It was first text, then a video with the text, and then finally an AI generated song. This is where this post comes into play. I have several different versions of the song I am asking for feedback on which version is the preferred one.
So Here is the Text, the video and then links to the different audio versions.
A Psalm to Abba
Abba Daddy,
I come humbly before you, I pray that you forgive me for being too “grown up” sometimes in my faith as I walk through this life. Forgive me for forgetting your call to “come to me as a child.” Father, just as a child is totally and completely dependent on a parent, let me not forget that I am totally and completely dependent on you. Holy Spirit remind me that my identity is first and foremost a child of the Almighty Creator and Ruler of the Universe. Father, I am humbled and amazed that you have called and chosen me as one who you pour out your amazing love, mercy and grace. I AM LOVED! And your faithfulness endures for a thousand generations. Lord, in joy and pleasure of your goodness and strength I will sing and shout praise to your great name. Yet, likewise, in the pain and sorrow of suffering and disappointment I lift my hands, I will lay my soul bare and prostrate before your feet. To you I will cry out; my lips will whisper worship to you for your kindness and faithfulness in all circumstances. In my tears I will call out to you and because of your great love you will hear and answer.
My voice you will hear before the sun arises!; a song I will sing at noontime; my lips will praise you before my eyes close to sleep at the day’s end.
You are my strong tower, The Rock and Fortress on which I trust and depend. I run to you in the midst of the mighty storms and I hide in the shadow of your wings and you hide me from the attacks of the evil one.
Abba, Daddy, I am overwhelmed with emotions and words fail me as I try to express the joy, gratitude, love and adoration that I feel as you graciously reveal the great mystery of your great power and strength in the very midst of your tender mercy and gentle kindness towards me. To your Great Name and to it alone be all Glory and Honor and Splendor and Praise, Now and Forevermore. AMEN
SELAH!
