"So I’ll cherish the old rugged cross, Till my trophies at last I lay down; I will cling to the old rugged cross, And exchange it some day for a crown."-George Bennard

MAJESTY: sovereign power, authority, or dignity; also : the Person of a sovereign--used as a title 2 : GRANDEUR, SPLENDOR (Websters)
I always liked this song. If we could only see just how majestic Christ is, we would know just how "unmajestic", and sinful, we really are. And we should recognize the greatness of the Lord, and how vile we are, if we read, prayerfully study, and meditate upon the Holy Scriptures. And when we know, and experience this truth, then the forgiveness, and grace of God, will be even more overwhelming then we ever thought possible. God's love for us, personally, will be magnified exceedingly. And this in turn will cause us to love Him, and live by trusting in Him, and not ourselves.
"Forever I am changed by Your love,
In the presence of Your Majesty."
"There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear. For fear has to do with punishment, and whoever fears has not been perfected in love. We love because he first loved us." 1 John 4:18-19
"Here I am humbled by Your Majesty,
Covered by Your grace oh Friend.
Here I am knowing I'm a sinful man,
Covered by the blood of the Lamb.
And now I've found the greatest love of all is mine,
Since You laid down Your life,
The greatest sacrifice."

whta a beautiful song!
Have a blessed Lord's day sister.
I like how the crowd appeared to be paying more attention to the Lord, than to the band. That is a mark of a good worship band/leader. It is so right that when we sing worship songs like this one, that we are more attentive to who God is, than how we feel.
I agree 100% Craver. Amen and amen.
