Cannons-Phil Whikham

This is the song Cannons by Phil Whikham




Lyrics:

It's falling from the clouds
A strange and lovely sound
I hear it in the thunder and rain
It's ringing in the skies
Like cannons in the night
The music of the universe plays

You are holy great and mighty
The moon and the stars declare who You are
I'm so unworthy, but still You love me
Forever my heart will sing of how great You are

Beautiful and free
Song of Galaxies
It's reaching far beyond the milky way
Lets join in with the sound
C'mon let's sing it loud
As the music of the universe plays

All glory, honor, power is Yours amen
All glory, honor, power is Yours amen
All glory, honor, power is Yours forever amen




Behind the Song:
"This song was written outside under the stars one night. I remember looking up and thinking how the stars themselves were acting as worship leaders. How every time I take the time to look up and imagine the size of the hand that placed them there it blows me away. So right then I thought of the metaphor of how the universe is exploding with the evidence of God's existence and the fingerprints of His glory like a bunch of gigantic Cannons shooting off in the sky. This song was one that was specifically written for the corporate worship setting. It's my hope that people will sing this song along with me." - Phil Wickham

I just got back from a retreat, and a friend told me to listen to this song.

At retreat, it's so easy to lose yourself in God's love because that's all there is! But back at home, there are so many temptations and the enemy is everywhere.

Please pray that I'd be able to find direction in life, and that my thirst for God would finally be quenched! My name Youngwoo, and thank you so much for even reading this.

If anyone is reading these comments could you pray for my dad's shoulder. He injured it on his motorcycle 1 year and 1/2 ago, and the nerves have not healed up yet.

Thanks

I love JESUS
