Words of Life, Love and Praise
Modern Day Psalm
Desperately I reach out to you,
eager for your sweet embrace;
hunger and thirst ravage this flesh,
reveal yourself that they be still.
Come to me in the quiet hours of darkness
for there I feel haunted most,
unsightly visions of loss and despair
touch these eyes that I see them no more.
Nothing is greater than your love
no ocean deeper and your tears,
nor mountain higher than your purpose for me
or yonder star beyond your reach.
All I am and possess is surrendered to you
though meager, it is yours~
This my offering shall be made great
as golden strings in the harp of eternity.
So mend O' Lord, this broken heart
dry these many tears
I pray your spirit shine within me
as candle in the darkness.
eager for your sweet embrace;
hunger and thirst ravage this flesh,
reveal yourself that they be still.
Come to me in the quiet hours of darkness
for there I feel haunted most,
unsightly visions of loss and despair
touch these eyes that I see them no more.
Nothing is greater than your love
no ocean deeper and your tears,
nor mountain higher than your purpose for me
or yonder star beyond your reach.
All I am and possess is surrendered to you
though meager, it is yours~
This my offering shall be made great
as golden strings in the harp of eternity.
So mend O' Lord, this broken heart
dry these many tears
I pray your spirit shine within me
as candle in the darkness.
