Sovereign King of our Souls

Sovereign King of our Souls

 

You are Lord of the willing and wanting

The source of "Whosoever will"

Lord we see in your light

By the power of your might

In believing you are sovereign still.

 

You are Lord of our righteous repentance

You alone know the elect

Those who are placed in the Beloved

Those whoíre called by your name you protect.

 

Lord of our choices

Lord of our will

We lift out voices

As our hearts you fill

Lord of redemption

Lord over all

Oh Lord of hosts

Save to the uttermost

On your name we call!

 

For you have created our hearts and our minds

The power to reason and sight for the blind

Now seeing, we seek you

So you know we will find

Find the sovereign King of our souls

Be the sovereign king of our souls!

 

Whether we live or whether we die

Whether we fall down or whether we fly

When it comes down to choices, itís not you or I

Who is ultimately in control

But the sovereign King of our souls.
