The Sanctuary Of God
Finding Strength and Purpose: The Sanctuary of God by Mike Wilhoit
Lyrics
Why do some people have all the luck
Questioning why some people seem to have good fortune
They have everything under the sun
Those fortunate individuals have abundance in various aspects of life
And take all the credit for all of the things they have got
Criticism of people taking credit for their possessions
I looked and I wondered Dear God do You see
Expressing concern and questioning if God is aware of the troubles of believers
All of the troubles of those who believe
Acknowledging the challenges faced by those who have faith
While the wicked just seem to roll merrily on and on
Observing that the wicked appear to live carefree lives
Then I went in the Sanctuary of God
Entering the Sanctuary of God for spiritual insight
I saw the slippery path they were on
Recognizing the misguided path taken by the wicked
The road that they're takin' is takin' them nowhere at all
Highlighting that their chosen path leads nowhere
One thing's for certain, they're gonna fall
Anticipating the inevitable downfall of the wicked
From where God's lookin' He sees it all
Affirming God's omniscient perspective on all matters
In the Sanctuary, the Sanctuary of God
Emphasizing the significance of the Sanctuary of God
Sometimes our flesh and our hearts start to waiver
Acknowledging human vulnerability and wavering faith
But God is our strength and our portion forever
Stating that God is the ultimate source of strength and support
He will uphold us no matter what may come along
Confidence that God will sustain believers through challenges
God is our refuge, He's still on His Throne
Reinforcing God as a refuge, maintaining divine sovereignty
One day in Heaven He'll welcome us Home
Hopeful anticipation of a heavenly home for believers
All who have trusted the work of His Son on the cross
Reference to salvation through trusting in Christ's work on the cross
Let's go into the Sanctuary of God
Encouragement to enter the Sanctuary of God for guidance
And see through the Eyes of the One who made us
Advising to see life through God's perspective
Let's see where we're goin' by building our lives on the Rock
Suggesting building life on the foundation of faith
It's gonna be worth it one Heavenly day
Emphasizing the future reward of heavenly bliss
All of our tears will be wiped away
Expectation of joy and the end of sorrow in God's Sanctuary
In the Sanctuary, the Sanctuary of God
Reiteration of the significance of the Sanctuary of God
Let's go into the Sanctuary of God
Encouraging entry into the Sanctuary of God for spiritual insight
And see through the Eyes of the One who made us
Re-emphasizing the importance of seeing life through God's eyes
Let's see where we're goin' by building our lives on the Rock
Reiterating the value of building life on a solid foundation
It's gonna be worth it one Heavenly day
Reaffirming the anticipated worth of a heavenly reward
All of our tears will be wiped away
Expressing hope for the removal of all tears in the divine Sanctuary
In the Sanctuary, the Sanctuary of God
Final emphasis on the importance of the Sanctuary of God
Hey in the Sanctuary, the Sanctuary of God
Concluding acknowledgment of the divine Sanctuary
