The Power and the Presence

 

Do not be afraid- you saw with your own eyes

The great trials and tribulations that can serve to make you wise

The miraculous signs, the wonders and the mighty hand

And the outstretched arm with which the Lord brought you to this land.

Where milk and honey flows

Where a Holy people know

The power and the presence of the Lord of Lords

 

Now by the Word of the Lord you will not tire

Of this manna you desire

It is hidden in your heart

And baked by the Spirit's Fire

Milk and honey flows

Where a Holy people know

The power and the presence of the Lord of Lords

 

Remember how he led you in the wilderness?

To humble you, top break you and to be a Holy test

In order to show you just what was in your heart

Whether you would obey and thus be set apart

To be His very own

To feed you bread you'd never known

 

To teach you that man doensn't live by bread alone...

Now by the Word of the Lord you will not tire

Of this manna you desire

It is hidden in your heart

And baked by the Spirit's Fire

Milk and honey flows

Where a Holy people know

The power and the presence of the Lord of Lords
