YOUR THOUGHTS ARE NOT OUR THOUGHTS (LYRICS)
Who can be compared with You, Our King?
Heaven is the throne of the Heavenly King
And the earth He created is His footstool
Ocean is measured in the hollow of God’s palm
Nation before God are as a drop of a bucket
Your thoughts are not our thoughts O Lord,
Our ugly crooked ways are not Your ways,
As the glorious heavens is higher than the earth,
So is God’s righteous ways higher than our ways,
And His holy thoughts than our wicked thoughts.
Consistency is the way of the Heavenly Father
The ordinance of day and night never changed
Master’s seed and harvest time never ceased
His compassion for humanity never ceased
Because His unparallel mercy endureth forever
Your thoughts are not our thoughts O Lord,
Our ugly crooked ways are not Your ways,
As the glorious heavens is higher than the earth,
So is God’s righteous ways higher than our ways,
And His holy thoughts than our wicked thoughts.
Who is qualified to counsel and instruct our King?
Wisdom and understanding emanates from Him
He give understanding hearts to those He called
He empowered the weak to defeat the giants
He chooses foolish things to confound the wise
Your thoughts are not our thoughts O Lord,
Our ugly crooked ways are not Your ways,
As the glorious heavens is higher than the earth,
So is God’s righteous ways higher than our ways,
And His holy thoughts than our wicked thoughts.
Your thoughts are not our thoughts O Lord,
Our ugly crooked ways are not Your ways,
As the glorious heavens is higher than the earth,
So is God’s righteous ways higher than our ways,
And His holy thoughts than our wicked thoughts.
Than our wicked thoughts
Than our wicked thoughts
Than our wicked thoughts

BIBLE REFERENCES
Who hath measured the waters in the hollow of his hand, and meted out heaven with the span, and comprehended the dust of the earth in a measure, and weighed the mountains in scales, and the hills in a balance? Who hath directed the Spirit of the LORD, or being his counseller hath taught him? With whom took he counsel, and who instructed him, and taught him in the path of judgment, and taught him knowledge, and shewed to him the way of understanding? Behold, the nations are as a drop of a bucket, and are counted as the small dust of the balance: behold, he taketh up the isles as a very little thing. (Isaiah 40:12-15)
For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD. For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts. For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater: So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it. (Isaiah 55:8-11)
And the word of the LORD came unto Jeremiah, saying, Thus saith the LORD; If ye can break my covenant of the day, and my covenant of the night, and that there should not be day and night in their season; Then may also my covenant be broken with David my servant, that he should not have a son to reign upon his throne; and with the Levites the priests, my ministers.Thus saith the LORD; If my covenant be not with day and night, and if I have not appointed the ordinances of heaven and earth; Then will I cast away the seed of Jacob, and David my servant, so that I will not take any of his seed to be rulers over the seed of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob: for I will cause their captivity to return, and have mercy on them. (Jeremiah 33:19-21, 25-26)
