Worship Leader Probs

We dusted off an older worship song this weekend at MPCC, “The Heart Of Worship” by Matt Redman. I have always loved this song and this weekend I was reminded of the power of a congregation proclaiming this spiritual truth together.

Born out of a season of real apathy in his home church, this song was birthed during a time with no band or sound system in their church services. The took it all away and simply focused their hearts on the Lord. You can read the powerful story here.

It really isn’t about style, volume, labels or being cool. It is about nothing more than HIM and HIM alone.

When the music fades
And all is stripped away
And I simply come
Longing just to bring
Something that’s of worth
That will bless your heart

I’ll bring You more than a song
For a song in itself
Is not what You have required
You search much deeper within
Through the ways things appear
You’re looking into my heart

I’m coming back to the heart of worship
And it’s all about You
All about You, Jesus
I’m sorry Lord for the thing I’ve made it
When it’s all about You
It’s all about You Jesus

May it always be about YOU, Lord, above everything else. And, may the outpouring that spills over from our lives flow out and touch each and every person that we come in contact with.
