Grace Memorial Parishioner

Selah is an internationally acclaimed Christian music trio (Todd Smith, Allan Hall, & Amy Perry) formed in 1997.
The group took their name from the ancient Hebrew word “selah”, the exact meaning of which has been lost in antiquity.  The word “selah” appears over 70 times in the Psalms…it is surmised by some theologians that its meaning is similar to “amen” in that no viable English synonym exists.
Selah has sold more than 4 million albums resulting in 8 Gospel Music Association “Dove Awards”, and 8 #1 singles.

​Wonderful merciful Savior, precious Redeemer and Friend,
Who would have thought that a Lamb could rescue the souls of men…
O, You rescue the souls of men.
 
Counselor, Comforter, Keeper, Spirit we long to embrace,
You offer hope when our hearts have hopelessly lost our way…
O, we’ve hopelessly lost the way.
 
You are the One that we praise, You are the One we adore,
You give the healing and grace our, hearts always hunger for…
O, our hearts always hunger for.
 
Almighty infinite Father, faithfully loving Your own,
Here in our weakness You find us, falling before Your throne…
O, we’re falling before Your throne.
 
You are the One that we praise, You are the One we adore,
You give the healing and grace our, hearts always hunger for…
O, our hearts always hunger for.
 
You are the One that we praise, You are the One we adore,
You give the healing and grace our, hearts always hunger for…
O, our hearts always hunger for.
