A Thousand More

"A Thousand More" by Thrive Worship is a beautiful song that echoes the sentiments of Psalm 145:3, "Great is the Lord and most worthy of praise; his greatness no one can fathom." The song's lyrics and this verse both acknowledge the unfathomable greatness of God, His power, His love, and His grace. 

The song begins by questioning who can command the sun to rise or show the dawn its place. This is reminiscent of Job 38:12, where God asks Job, "Have you ever given orders to the morning, or shown the dawn its place?" The song and this verse both highlight the omnipotence of God, His command over nature, and His infinite wisdom that far surpasses our understanding.

The lyrics then move on to express the inability to fully comprehend God's worth or the extent of His deeds. This sentiment is echoed in Romans 11:33, "Oh, the depth of the riches of the wisdom and knowledge of God! How unsearchable his judgments, and his paths beyond tracing out!" The song and this verse both underscore the immeasurable worth of God and the impossibility of fully grasping His deeds and His love.

The song also speaks of God's ability to heal the hardest heart and hear the softest prayer, a testament to His omnipresence and omnibenevolence. This is reflected in Psalm 147:3, "He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds," and Psalm 34:15, "The eyes of the Lord are on the righteous, and his ears are attentive to their cry."

Finally, the song concludes with the acknowledgment that no matter how many lives we live, we could never see the end of God's grace. This aligns with Ephesians 2:8, "For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God."

The song "A Thousand More" and these selected scriptures both emphasize the unfathomable greatness of God, His omnipotence, His immeasurable worth, His omnipresence, His omnibenevolence, and His infinite grace. They remind us that no matter how much we praise Him, it will never be enough to fully express His worth.

So, as we reflect on these lyrics and scriptures, let us ask ourselves: How can we live our lives in a way that continually acknowledges and praises God's greatness, even though we know we can never fully comprehend it? How can we ensure that every action, every word, and every thought serves as a testament to His immeasurable worth and infinite grace?
