The song that has been ministering to me since my Hanoi trip a few weeks back is All The Earth, by the
Parachute Band.
One of the amazing things that I had a chance to experience on the trip was Halong Bay, a UNESCO World Heritage site. Just like the beauty of the 2000 islands of limestone lovingly created by God over millions of years, I'm reminded that He has created the earth so wonderfully, so amazingly, and everything that is within it. This is the creator the universe - from the amazing power of the Sun, right down to the perfect mathematical precision of the Nautilus shell. And yet, He has chosen to love us unconditionally and reach out to us through Jesus Christ.
I hope this song will minister to you as well.

All The Earth
The Parachute Band
Father, into Your courts I will enter
Maker of heaven and earth
I tremble in Your holy presence
Glory, glory in Your sanctuary
Splendour and majesty Lord
Before You all life adores You
All the earth will declare
That Your love is ev’rywhere
The fields will exalt, seas resound
Hear the trees, joyful cry
Praising You and so will I
A new song I’ll sing
Lord I will glorify and bless Your holy name
Jesus, Lord of all life and salvation
Into Your Presence we come
We worship, You our precious Saviour
Fill us, fill us with Your Holy power
Set us aflame with Your love
Till nations all know Your glory
