Resound Worship, Marcus Pagnam
I was reflecting on the Doxecology project and also thinking about the word ‘Resound’ - and the basic song came pretty quickly while I was driving on a long journey. It started off as my attempt to write a modern ‘How great Thou art’ with all of creation singing praise to the God who brings salvation and restoration to all of creation. However it quickly became clear that the subject matter was too big for this song, so after numerous Resound writing sessions I finally came to the conclusion it needed to be more to the point - that then released me to focus on the song as a call to worship. The verses went through many lyrical re-writes and the bridge was added at some point, using Revelation 4 which I hope gives a sense of call to eternal, everlasting praise.

We are rightly taught that it is only by grace that we are saved. But it can be easy to get into wrong thinking about what we can do, and feel inadequate because of what we don’t do, or don’t have the ability to so. This is a song to sing together as a congregation or in personal worship, to remind ourselves that whatever our abilities or frailties are, we can come accepted and worship Him, knowing that his grace will supply what we need as part of the body of Christ. We are all “fearfully and wonderfully made”, often with “weirdly hewn” characteristics that God designed for His glory!
