Braille - Instruments of Mercy lyrics

[Verse 1: Odd Thomas] The same God who measured the waters in the hollows of His holy hands Is the same God that uses broken man to expand His fixed plan Sovereign, infinite, eternal, personal and intimate Independently playing the harp with the various parts of our hearts instrument A symphony of saints saved from sin singing spiritual songs Pausing in awe, where all praise and all applause belongs to God Stretching and bending, pitch, pruning tightening and tuning It's the residue of His resin that's the evidence of His divine choosing Using the weather and the storm to conform us into the image of our glorious Lord Scorn to compose a score being stitched together in melodious chord It's the strumming and pressing of strings that momentarily stings But in the end it ultimately brings us to a place that causes hearts to sing [Chorus: Hello Abigail] With Your hands, play Your song Use my life I'm Your instrument Tune my heart to sing Your song Use my life I'm Your instrument [Verse 2: Braille] God I thank You for Your grace and Your mercy in the face of adversity I never went to college, never graduated but pain is a university When I hold up my diploma there's no dilemma despite my lack of credits Because Jesus paid it all, yeah that's my story when they roll the credits A life time of suffering is nothing compared to the glory being prepared And we could never find a stairway to heaven or climb up a ladder to get there It's only by the merits of Christ that sinners inherit eternal life So I pray we grow in dependency, strip away my self reliant tendencies Organize and order my days according to Your ordinance I'm an instrument in Your orchestra Lord and You are my only audience Holding Your promises close and watching as Your plan unfolds All for Your glory and praise playing the song that You composed [Chorus: Hello Abigail] (x2) With Your hands, play Your song Use my life I'm Your instrument Tune my heart to sing Your song Use my life I'm Your instrument
