HE is ...... in every Book


of the Bible.  

In this song, by Aaron Joeffrey, they talk about who God is or how He is represented in each Book of the Bible.  I have been thinking lately about the 'Scarlet Cord of Redemption' found from the beginning (Genesis) right on through the book of Revelation.  This song helped me visualize today just how Awesome my God is!

In Genesis, He's the breath of life
In Exodus, the Passover Lamb
In Leviticus, He's our High Priest
Numbers, The fire by night
Deuteronomy, He's Moses' voice
In Joshua, He is salvation's choice
Judges, law giver
In Ruth, the kinsmen-redeemer
First and second Samuel, our trusted prophet
In Kings and Chronicles, He's sovereign


Ezra, true and faithful scribe
Nehemiah, He's the rebuilder of broken walls and lives
In Esther, He's Mordecai's courage
In Job, the timeless redeemer
In Psalms, He is our morning song


In Proverbs, wisdom's cry
Ecclesiastes, the time and season
In the Song of Solomon, He is the lover's dream

He is, He is, HE IS!

In Isaiah, He's Prince of Peace
Jeremiah, the weeping prophet
In Lamentations, the cry for Israel
Ezekiel, He's the call from sin
In Daniel, the stranger in the fire


In Hosea, He is forever faithful
In Joel, He's the Spirits power
In Amos, the arms that carry us
In Obadiah, He's the Lord our Savior
In Jonah, He's the great missionary


In Micah, the promise of peace
In Nahum, He is our strength and our shield
In Habakkuk and Zephaniah, He's pleading for revival
In Haggai, He restores a lost heritage
In Zechariah, our fountain

In Malachi, He is the son of righteousness rising with healing in His wings
He is, He is, HE IS!

In Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, He is God, Man, Messiah
In the book of Acts, He is fire from heaven
In Romans, He's the grace of God
In Corinthians, the power of love
In Galatians, He is freedom from the curse of sin


Ephesians, our glorious treasure
Philippians, the servants heart
In Colossians, He's the Godhead Trinity
Thessalonians, our coming King
In Timothy, Titus, Philemon He's our mediator and our faithful Pastor


In Hebrews, the everlasting covenant
In James, the one who heals the sick.
In First and Second Peter, he is our Shepherd
In John and in Jude, He is the lover coming for His bride
In the Revelation, He is King of Kings and Lord of Lords

He is, He is, HE IS!

The prince of peace
The Son of man
The Lamb of God
The great I AM


He's the alpha and omega
Our God and our Savior
He is Jesus Christ the Lord
and when time is no more
He is, HE IS!


Who could ask for anything more!
HE IS all we need for life & godliness!

One minor correction--because you know I like things to be accurate...

Aaron Jeoffrey is actually a father/son duo. So the first sentence should use a "they" instead of a "he".

You know I love you...

LOL ... thanks ... you are too funny. I did read that Aaron Joeffrey were (?)a father/son but reasoned that people wouldn't know or wouldn't think of that but if I wrote "they" it would look more like I used bad grammar! But you are right .. it is best to be accurate ... rather than prideful!! Wonder why they don't say Aaron & Joeffrey ??

Jeremy said...

Part of the reason--is that the father, Jeoffrey Benward has been in the Christian music scene since the '70s. At some point he asked his son what he wanted to do and was surprised to hear that he wanted to be in the music business also. So--I think part of the reasoning was to keep Jeoffrey's name at the beginning of the group name in an effort to maintain the name recognition he had already earned.

- My $.02...for what it's worth.

You two are so funny!! But it is a good song... whoever sings it! ;)
Wonder if you can print out blogs? I need this somewhere I can see it more often!

we always sing loud to this song..but about 1/2 of the way through it everyone gets kinda tired of it... it must be the longest song I know!! :)

I think you have to sing it LOTS faster than they do. If your kids have it memorized it will be a valuable tool in Bible studies for them! I should memorize it.
