Song Highlight: Never Let Me Down

The song "Never Let Me Down" by Andy Gullahorn was chosen for our song of reflection this week as we continued our sermon series through the life of Abraham. This week, we focused on Genesis 15:1-6. In this passage, God reiterates his promise that Abraham's heir will be his very own son.

As we observed in this passage, Abraham doubted these promises for a variety of reasons, but God responded by reiterating his promises and making a covenant with Abraham. This covenant is an awesome display of God's faithfulness to Abraham...and to us. Despite our doubts, our misgivings, and our failures, our God will never let us down.

You can listen to the song below.


Lyrics:

I guess I learned the hard way
The world can't give me what I need
Even though the house I built on sand
Was swallowed by the sea

You never let me down, you never let me down
You never let me down, you never let me down

Sometimes I think I'll only be content
With things that money buys
It's like trying to squeeze water from a stone
It will not provide

But you never let me down, you never let me down
You never let me down, you never let me down


You might let me cry
You might let me sing
You might let me feel a fraction of your suffering

But you won't let me down, you never let me down

If I could just stop striving
And surrender to your holy power
I know your loving arms will lift me up

And never let me down, you never let me down
You never let me down, you never let me down
