May you and yours have a peaceful, restoring day with friends and family.
I wrote this song for the One we celebrate today. Enjoy!
🎧 Listen: The Clouds Beneath His Feet
Verse 1
The sky turns heavy,
the storm draws near.
The weight that I carry
is more than I bear.
But just when I’m sinking,
His whisper I hear:
“The clouds of your trials
mean I am right here.”
Pre-Chorus
Every burden,
every tear I weep—
They’re only the dust
at Jesus’ feet.
Chorus
The clouds are beneath
the Savior’s feet.
Every woe I face
falls in His defeat.
Through the darkest night,
my heart believes—
The clouds are beneath
the Savior’s feet.
Verse 2
The doubts that haunt me,
the fear I fight,
They vanish like shadows
in His holy light.
He lifts me higher,
where hope won’t retreat.
My heaviest sorrows
are dust at His feet.
Pre-Chorus
Every trial,
every fear I keep,
Fades before His throne,
at Jesus’ feet.
Chorus
The clouds are beneath
the Savior’s feet.
Every woe I face
falls in His defeat.
Through the darkest night,
my heart believes—
The clouds are beneath
the Savior’s feet.
Bridge
Behold, He is coming,
with fire in His eyes.
Every knee will bow,
every heart will rise.
The heavens are shaking,
the trumpet resounds.
Jesus is crowned King,
His glory surrounds.
Final Chorus
The clouds are beneath
the Savior’s feet.
Every chain is gone,
every fear’s defeat.
Through the darkest night,
my soul believes—
The clouds are beneath
the Savior’s feet.
Outro
All my sorrows,
all my trials I meet,
Turn to holy dust
beneath His feet.
