The day is soon coming when all of our earthly life will seem like a distant breath, though certainly today has plenty of blessings, and also concerns. Our hearts our prone to wander, and cling fast to earthly attachments which only distract us from the riches we already have received in Christ. Scripture echoes itself throughout the old and new testament, and this beautiful chapter of Isaiah is a good example of "great things" restated. Chad lays this out for us in ways that is sure to encourage us along our journey. Izzi Ray beautifully sings "And In That Day".

Lyrics to "And In That Day"

And in that day

I will say

Praise the Lord

And in that day

I will sing

The song of Your word

Though You were angry

Still you entered my soul

Drew up the waters

And made me whole

Chorus:

My good Shepherd

My salvation

I will not be afraid

I will not be afraid

My Good Shepherd

I belong to You

Body and soul

Forever

Body and soul

And in that day,

I’ll3 want for nought

No need to fear

Cause You are my strength

You are the light

Holy and pure

Though You were angry

Still you entered my soul

Drew up the waters

And made me whole

Chorus:

Good Shepherd

My salvation

I will not be afraid

I will not be afraid

Good Shepherd

I belong to You

Body and soul

Forever

Bridge:

I will sing your song in the night of sorrows

My loving guide

Every step of the way

I will not be afraid

Good Shepherd

I belong to You
