Today’s song comes from Skye Peterson; she is the daughter of singer-songwriter and author Andrew Peterson, however her wonderful vocals and songwriting gives her the right to stand in her own identity. She has collaborated with various people including the Gettys, Steph Macleod, and of course her dad Andrew Peterson. She recently contributed to a project called “The Wood Drake Sessions”, and today’s song “was written as a reminder that God is always perfectly and lovingly at work, faithfully accomplishing his gracious purposes through our lives, even in the frustrations and limitations we experience1.” I hope you enjoy this one as much as I did!
Every dawn of my days
I awake to your mercy
You’re providing
Always guiding
Ever faithfully working
From the mornings of joy
To the evenings of gloom
You are working, you’re working for good.
Refrain
Hallelujah, You’re working for good
Hallelujah, You’re working for good
Take my labours of life
All the fruit and frustration
In my striving, be uniting
All of earth to your kingdom
Give me hope in my toil
Grant me faith to be still
For you’re working, you’re working your will
Refrain
At the dusk of my days
There’s a light ever rising
You are reigning, all sustaining
Never failing, nor tiring
So I’ll rest and rejoice
When I labour no more
For Your working, your working endures.
Refrain
