lookatthecloud. Lyrics

So many stories that are hidden

So many glories we've not seen

Rest in the hearts of saints who've served him

That have gone into eternity

All the displays of sovereign mercy

The presentations of God's hand

Living within the church's story

From the beginning to the end

We see his blessings in their triumph

We see his strength when they were weak

Look at the cloud that came before us

And the redeemer they believed

We are reminded of his goodness

When we recount all history

Look at the cloud that came before us

And the redeemer they believed

His Holy Spirit moved among them

They heard his voice when God would speak

He gave them faith to see his kindness

They saw how far his love could reach

There in the lions den he sheltered

He was the path through the Red Sea

He was another in the fire

Proving his grace would never cease

We see his blessings in their triumph

We see his strength when they were weak

Look at the cloud that came before us

And the redeemer they believed

We are reminded of his goodness

When we recount all history

Look at the cloud that came before us

And the redeemer they believed

Look at the cloud

Look at the cloud

Look at the cloud that came before us

And the redeemer they believed

We sing together with the angels

Holy is he whose brings us through

Joining the unsung saints in glory

Jesus the praise belongs to you

There with Goliath you were David

Slaying our sins and all our shame

And when we wrestle you are Jacob

Taking the blow we should have claimed

There in the palace you were Joseph

Clearing our debt when we betrayed

And on the cross you gave a reason

For us to sing with all the saints

We see your blessings in their triumph

We see your strength when they are weak

Look at the cloud that came before us

And the redeemer they believed

We are reminded of your goodness

When we recount all history

Look at the cloud that came before us

And the redeemer they believed

Look at the cloud

Look at the cloud

Look at the cloud that came before us

And the redeemer they believed

When it seems I have lost my footing

I've become clumsy in this race

Remind me that one day I will join them

All the celebrities of faith

We will exchange all of our stories

Of how we were grateful to be used

And we will look upon your glory

Singing the praise belongs to you
