What can I say about Stefanie! Where do I start? I wanted to use a song that we have done several times but I felt that God had a plan for this CD and had His own songs He wanted laid on the tracks. I asked the Lord to give us a song and to my surprise my fabulous husband co-wrote it with me. Doug and his amazing talents put together the incredible orchestration.
I took Stefanie to the studio and check this out; we all know “7” is God’s number for completion. This was the last song on the CD, the last song we wrote and the last track to be laid. When I arrived to pick up Stefanie my speedometer was on all 7’s! It was a confirmation for me.
We got to the studio and she laid her track tweaking the blend and made it sound even better. The first time I heard it I cried because I was so humbled at what God had done with “Our Song.” To hear her angelic voice blending with mine it was a dream come true. Stefanie asked, “Was it that bad? Doug laughed because he knew what was going on. This song is such a blessing to me, I still cry when I have a quiet moment to listen to it and meditate on the fact that I wouldn’t even be here if it weren’t for God and His mercy. All the Glory belongs to Him.
Lyrics
(Verse 1) I don’t know how I’ve come this far but it’s only by Your grace. I can’t believe here’s another day I’m alive to bring You praise, So with our hands and hearts held high, You are my strength and my might. You calm the storm and raging sea. You did that for me, for me, For someone like me.
(Chorus) It's not our song because it's Your song. All the Glory belongs to You! You made a sacrifice and laid down Your life. Something no one else could do. You are Almighty One, Savior and Friend, Savior and Friend Blessed One who took our sins. You are King of Kings and Lord of Lord's, This is our song.
(Verse 2) I wandered through a vast wasteland to find You there all along. I cried to You in troubled times and You only made me strong. We see Your works and wondrous deeds, We exalt You Lord on High! You have every part of me, Every deepest part of me, of me, Of someone like me.
(Bridge) We offer up this song to You, it’s the least we can do. You are Abba Father glorious Lord, Its You we adore. We give You thanks, we give You praise! Forever (Forever) and ever (and ever) And ever (Praise You Lord) And ever (Hallelujah!) (dovetails into key change)
(Key Change Chorus) It's not our song because it's Your song. All the Glory belongs to You! You made a sacrifice and laid down your life. Something no one else could do. You are Almighty One, Savior and Friend Blessed one who took our sins. You are King of Kings and Lord of Lord's, This is our song.
(End Tag) You are King of Kings and Lord of Lords The Bles-sed One This is our song! Our Song!
