“Awesome” by Peter Arciniega, Jr.

I chose “Awesome” because it was the one song I felt could describe the Lord’s power, brilliance, and majesty. It was a song I wrote while visiting the Grand Canyon. As my family and I looked across the Canyon we were hit with so much beauty and bewilderment at the same time thinking, wow and they say there is no designer or creator. Creation seemed to be worshipping the LORD and so I tried to paint that picture in this song. We also went to California and took a drive on PCH and the Pacific Ocean seemed to be doing the same, so the Lord was telling me, as He did in Job. All those people, where were they when I spoke this into existence. My wife loves the song because she says it’s well written with words that you don’t often hear in Christian music. As well, “Awesome” allows me to demonstrate that the Lord is Lord of all things including my vocals.
