Dave and Irene,
Devin and I tried to send well wishes from Europe but they never went through. We continued to pray for you and your family. I have read that it continues to be such a difficult road for you Irene. For this we are so very sorry. We lift you up to our Heavenly Father, We pray that in this valley you will have moments of peace that only our Father’s love can give. We will see you soon.
Love,
Devin and Veronica
Creator of all things
Healer of my being
Through your righteousness
I’ve been redeemed
Forgiven by your grace
Your joy is my strength
When everything has changed
You stay the same
You are God
Bright and Morning Star
When I’m down you lift me up
You’re the Lover of my heart
You are God
Mender of my soul
You’re the rain that makes my whole
You are God
Ever-present help
Savior of my life
Everything I have belongs to you
My time is in your hands
My purpose is your will
I know that you’ll provide
so I’II be still
You are God
Bright and Morning Star
When I’m down you lift me up
You’re the Lover of my heart
You are God
Mender of my soul
You’re the rain that makes my whole
You are God
You are the One
that delivers me
It’s not because of what I am
but who You are
You are God
Bright and Morning Star
When I’m down you lift me up
You’re the Lover of my heart
You are God
Mender of my soul
You’re the rain that makes my whole
You are God
You’re my provider
When I’m down
You lift me higher
When I’m weak
You are the fire
That turns me into gold
You are God
Alpha, Omega
Take my life
Lord I surrender
You’re the rain that makes me whole
You are God
You Are God

I had never heard this song before June 8th, 2007. When my dad woke me at 5:30a, that day to be at my mom’s bedside, I still had 4 hours before I could get JoAnna at the airport to go to San Francisco. In the interim, I dusted off the old CD Library and found: The Katinas, Amy Grant, Sonic Flood, Steven Curtis Chapman, and several other Non-Secular artists that I had not listened to in quite sometime to create a ‘praise and worship’ mix for my sister and I to listen to on our way to SF that day. You Are God was amongst the mix. When it came on, just a few notes into the song JoAnna said, “Oh, I love this song!” – I confessed I had never heard it. As The Katinas sang I became immersed in the lyrics and have loved the song ever since. My stereo is broken in my car right now, so when I went
