Here's another song from "Accidentals." It started as a sort of musical experiment for me; I was trying to write a song in 7/4 time. Then the significance of the number 7 in the scriptures sort of occurred to me, and I thought: what better topic for a song in 7/4 time, than the number 7 itself? I posted an older recording of this song a long time ago, with some reflections on musical diversity in worship (you can read those thoughts here). This is a brand new recording and a slightly more polished arrangement. Enjoy.
Seven stars in your right hand
Seven lamps at your feet
Seven thunders in the heavens
Seven, the number of your majesty
Seven bowls of your judgment
Seven seals of your mystery
Seven trumpets of your justice
Seven, the number of your victory
Perfect in grace, prime in glory
Holy your name, pure your love
Seven colours in your covenant
Seven seventies your mystery
Seven feasts to remember you
Seven, the number of your love for me
Seven times in the Jordan
Seven times to deliver me
Seven the number of your purity
Seven hours on the cross for me
Perfect in grace, prime in glory
Holy your name, pure your love
Seven, the number of your purity
Seven seals to your mystery
Seven, the number of your victory
Seven hours on the cross for me
Perfect in grace, prime in glory
Holy your name, pure your love
