In a loud voice they were saying: “Worthy is the Lamb, who was slain, to receive power and wealth and wisdom and strength and honor and glory and praise!”

I was a teenager when my debut album came out 21 years ago last week.
I had nothing… yet had everything I needed. A sense of purpose, a small group of good, fun, praying friends, a truly wonderful label team who never asked me to be anything other than fully myself, 100 songs I’d written after school in the years prior and the miraculous leading and grace of God (how else could this story happen to a girl who grew up next to the Epuni train tracks).
It’s been a ride. It’s been miraculous, awful, crazy, depressing, incredible, unspectacular and everything in between and I’m thankful for all of it.

“At the renewal of all things, we will find that the context of our worship is not a change in location as such, but the completion of God’s promise, enjoying God in His new creation, with every tear wiped away, all sorrow displaced, every wound healed, every broken thing restored, and the people of God wholly redeemed.”

The last line of stanza one was on repeat in my mind the last few hours, so I looked it up to enjoy the full lyric and learned some fascinating things about the personal pain the hymn writer navigated whilst writing these enduring words that I will paste below.
It was an encouragement to me that pain, misunderstanding, rejection, yuck stuff will pass and pass away, but the faithfulness, prayers and offerings we bring during painful seasons miraculously shall last. Though most will not be penned and passed down through generations, all that is aimed at heaven will surely last there.
“Horatius Bonar (1808–1889), began writing hymns as a missioner at Leith, north of Edinburgh. After the devastating Disruption of the Church of Scotland in 1843 he became a Free Church of Scotland minister. Bonar was an avid writer of evangelical tracts, and had a great ministry among children. He was known for being intensely pastoral in his outlook, and in 1862 published God’s Way of Peace: a Book for the Anxious which was translated into three languages and sold over a quarter of a million copies in his lifetime. Ironically, he never heard his own hymns sung in his own church in Edinburgh, as his was one of the Free Church congregations to oppose the introduction of hymns! I heard the voice of Jesus say (based on Matthew 11: 28) was written in 1846, during what must have been an intensely stressful and painful time for Bonar himself in the immediate years after the 1843 schism."
