Where Could I Go

I am very excited to announce that my new song “WHERE COULD I GO” has been released on iTunes, Amazon Music, Spotify, and all the other major platforms. This is an original worship song that comes from Psalm 139. One night sitting at the piano I was reminded of this encouraging verse and this song just began to come out. I believe it captures the essence of God’s heart for us, even in our darkness.

Psalm 139 has always been a Bible chapter close to my heart. In it David describes the unending and ever-reaching presence of God. So many times we feel that our mistakes separate us from God and cause us to sink from His goodness. But David reminds us in this chapter that no matter where we go God’s love is ever-present. This is the amazing grace that surrounds God. His goodness is rooted in His mercy and grace towards us. Even while we were still sinners Christ died for us. You see, He is always chasing us and pursuing us even when we are sometimes fleeing Him. Yet no matter how low we go He is there and His light shines in our darkness.

Psalm 139:1-14 (NIV)

1 You have searched me, Lord,
    and you know me.
2 You know when I sit and when I rise;
    you perceive my thoughts from afar.
3 You discern my going out and my lying down;
    you are familiar with all my ways.
4 Before a word is on my tongue
    you, Lord, know it completely.
5 You hem me in behind and before,
    and you lay your hand upon me.
6 Such knowledge is too wonderful for me,
    too lofty for me to attain.

7 Where can I go from your Spirit?
    Where can I flee from your presence?
8 If I go up to the heavens, you are there;
    if I make my bed in the depths, you are there.
9 If I rise on the wings of the dawn,
    if I settle on the far side of the sea,
10 even there your hand will guide me,
    your right hand will hold me fast.
11 If I say, “Surely the darkness will hide me
    and the light become night around me,”
12 even the darkness will not be dark to you;
    the night will shine like the day,
    for darkness is as light to you.

13 For you created my inmost being;
    you knit me together in my mother’s womb.
14 I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made;
    your works are wonderful,
    I know that full well.

No matter what you are facing right now know that the goodness of God is pursuing you and is all around you. You cannot escape His presence. His love keeps Him driving towards you with a relentless desire to reveal Himself to you. No matter how dark it gets around you know that it is His glory that shines through it all. He will keep you and guide you even in the midst of the storms in life. Though we may walk through the valley of the shadow of death we will fear NO evil!

I hope and pray this song brings hope and light to your life…
