You Reign Forever (a song I wrote for my graduating friends)

O Lord, I pray
that you keep them safe and healthy
O Lord, I pray
that you keep their minds from indecency
O God, we pray
that your Spirit unclouds the mystery
shade them with eternity.

LORD, keep us close to your heart
Draw us near to your love
We pray that you tear us apart
And form us to you like a glove
Teach us to worship your justice, kindness, righteousness reigning forever!

Jehovah-rapha
heal us with your holy power
Jehovah-raah
shepherd us through every hour
Jehovah-shalom
grant them the peace of the flowers
and keep them from turning from your heart

LORD, keep us close to your heart
Draw us near to your love
We pray that you tear us apart
And form us to you like a glove
Teach us to worship your justice, kindness, righteousness reigning forever!

O God! Surround them with a fellowship
O, God! Be the anchor of their ship
El Elyon, be our God Most High
Mercy deeper than our sin
And love bigger than the sky

LORD, keep us close to your heart
Draw us near to your love
We pray that you tear us apart
And form us to you like a glove
Teach us to worship your justice, kindness, righteousness reigning forever!
Keep us together, LORD, I do pray
Teach us to worship you in every way...
Teach us to worship your justice, kindness, righteousness reigning forever.
