  4. On The Edge Of Tomorrow
    By: Ken Medema

    Ken Medema encourages us to be thankful for the adventure ahead of us, the tough pathways behind us, and the opportunity to serve others beyond the church walls, guided all the way by God's Spirit. In the middle of this lively song, Ken gives us a new text to the well-known hymn tune, Wye Valley. The new text is a prayer for God's Spirit to guide the "living out" of our faith each day, knowing that the testament of our lives proves God's grace. This piece can be accompanied by piano alone but can also have guitar, synthesizer, drums, and organ added. It is suitable for topics related to our witness in the world and the way in which God's Spirit guides our steps. The hymn inserted in this song can be performed as a separate congregational hymn and is entitled, "Holy Spirit, Guide Us" (separate catalog item). Learn More
