Saturday Random Song: Brenton Brown, "Lord, Reign in Me'

Tomorrow our church begins a two-week class on contemporary Christian music. This praise song was on the CD included with the class materials, and I've been listening to it every day. After a long spell of numbness, I don't yet feel the creative energy of God moving in me again, but I'm almost ready to ask Him for it. That's always a good sign.
Over all the earth, You reign on high
Every mountain stream, every sunset sky
But my one request, Lord, my only aim
Is that You'd reign in me again
Lord, reign in me, reign in Your power
Over all my dreams in my darkest hour
You are the Lord of all I am
So won't You reign in me again
Over every thought, over every word
May my life reflect the beauty of my Lord
'Cause you mean more to me than any earthly thing
So won't You reign in me again
