"GOD ANSWERS" a song composition inspired by Psalms 34

Upon reading some chapter in the book of psalm, during my bible reading, chapter 34 just caught-up my attention and the scripture on this particular portion struck me. The LORD reveal and taught me of lot of things about HIM and He started helping me create a poem thru the words on the said chapter and afterwards some melody came to my mind. Then, suddenly the poem had been arranged in such a way that it becomes a song of worship for the LORD. As Psalms 34, in David's testimony he proclaim that YAHWEH is the Provider and Deliverer who always listen to us whenever we call and always answer our deepest needs. The song entitled "God Answers" is dedicated to YAHWEH who is the reason why I keep singing and writing songs. All the Glory and Honor to YOU oh YAHWEH.

GOD’S ANSWERS
Words and Music by "Marc Ross"

I.
I will bless the LORD forever,
I will praise You now and ever,
My soul will boast in the LORD
The humble will hear it and rejoice

II.
For the LORD is good and faithful
He’s our rescue in times of trouble
He’s our refuge and stronghold
Come and find HIM now

Refrain:
O magnify the LORD my soul
And Fear the LORD with all my heart
How blessed it is to be with HIM
With Him

Chorus:
I called to Him, and He answered
And delivered me from all my fears
And this poor man cried,
The LORD will hear,
Saved him from all troubles,
The LORD redeems and provides,
And you will never be condemn,
The righteous will cry,
The LORD will hear,
He will be our comfort.

III.
Looked to Him and see His glory,
That shines to bring us hope,
To restore and heal our broken hearts,
The LORD will make us whole again

Matutong maghintay at hanapin ang Kalooban Niya
