On Time God - Yes He Is!

Good evening, ya'll.

I just returned from our first gospel choir rehearsal of 2009. It was like old home week with a bunch of old members coming back and some new members joining the team. For all those reading this, WELCOME!

The songs we're ministering this month are "On Time God" by Dottie Peoples and "Said He Would Be With Me" by Isaiah D. Thomas and Elements of Praise [I LOVE that group name!]. Both songs would be considered to be in the traditional style of gospel, but both have lyrics that speak to those who hear them. The first song talks about the story of Moses and the people of Israel that were coming out of slavery in Egypt being trapped between the Red Sea and the armies of the Pharaoh, and the story of Daniel in the lion's den. The chorus says He [meaning God] "may not come when we want Him", but He'll be there right on time. The second song reminds us that through our lives - through the storms, through the rain, through sickness and pain - that God would be with us. When you stop and think about that for a moment, you can't help but praise God!

Here's the video for "One Time God". Try as I might, I couldn't find a video for "Said He Would Be With Me", but you can go to the group's website here .

Have a blessed evening!
