New Getty/Townend Hymn

Posted in EBC, Hymns and Music  by ministerandy on January 31st, 2008

The picture shows Stuart Townend on the left and Keith Getty on the right. Stuart has an upcoming album on which he has re-recorded “Every Promise.” For those of you at Edgewood, I am sure this is a hymn we will be learning at some point this year. Jump over to the Getty’s website and familiarize yourself with it. Here are a few quotes about the song “Every Promise”.

Every Promise of your word is a song that reminds us of the rich promises in God’s word which are more than sufficient for our every circumstance.

This can be used as a congregational song or as an answer and response, where the congregation simply sing - ‘and I stand on every promise of Your word’

Paul Tripp on Every Promise

Why hope in the Word? Why stand on its every promise? Why heed its guidance and reach out for its grace? The answer is simple, it is the only place where life can be found. There is no firmer place to stand. There is no more reliable place of hope. There is no more trustworthy place of comfort. The story, the mirror, the scalpel, the map, the drink, the key, and the portrait all call me to come and rest again and hope again and stand again at the only place where life, real life, eternal can life be found.
