This worship song is based on Psalm 40, especially verses 1-9.  You can read it here.  It is a celebration of God’s rescue and renewal.  God does more than merely lift us out of the mire.  He puts a song in our mouths and sets us before the assembly to sing of His love.

Psalm 40 has always been one of my favorite psalms, in large part because I identity with what the psalm is all about.  God has lifted me from the “slimy pit” by His grace.  He has delivered me and continually puts new songs in my mouth.  I praise Him for His goodness and grace!
