Beautiful song. For those who may not be able to follow the lyrics, here they are:
As I sit here and think About all that You've done About how You gave me Your one and only Son And I'm trying to fathom All that You are, but so far, Lord You're so beyond me I fall down in reverence And I fall down in fear And I'm asking You, Lord, won't You please draw near Won't You open my eyes So that I can see The way that You are working in me All I need is Your love To come and fill this heart of mine My heart is a desert that has gone dry And I need Your love to carry me bye, bye, bye, bye, bye To carry me bye, bye, bye, bye, bye To carry me bye And I lay down my life And I put it before You All that I am is in Your hands And I'm not going to question, why You're so faithful Why that You give me the blessing that You have Let the glory be known, let the glory be shown Lift You up unto the throne You are my God, You are my King To You I give, I give You everything All that I need is Your love, my God
Father, I lift Annette up to you. She is Your beautiful, precious child. You are faithful to your children, and will not desert them.
Hear her plea, Lord. Fill her with Your love and Your Spirit. You above all others know what she truly wants and needs, and You above all others can meet those desires. I ask that You make Your presence known to her and meet her desires, as only You can.
Just as You delivered King David from all of his fears when he sought You, I ask that you hear Your daughter's cry and deliver her from her fears, concerns, and worries (Psalm 34:4).
Come by her side, God, and calm the troubled waters and Your child.
All this I humbly ask in the name of Your Son, Jesus, our risen Savior, and according to Your will.

ReplyDeleteAs I sit here and think
About all that You've done
About how You gave me Your one and only Son
And I'm trying to fathom
All that You are, but so far, Lord
You're so beyond me
I fall down in reverence
And I fall down in fear
And I'm asking You, Lord, won't You please draw near
Won't You open my eyes
So that I can see
The way that You are working in me
All I need is Your love
To come and fill this heart of mine
My heart is a desert that has gone dry
And I need Your love to carry me bye, bye, bye, bye, bye
To carry me bye, bye, bye, bye, bye
To carry me bye
And I lay down my life
And I put it before You
All that I am is in Your hands
And I'm not going to question, why You're so faithful
Why that You give me the blessing that You have
Let the glory be known, let the glory be shown
Lift You up unto the throne
You are my God, You are my King
To You I give, I give You everything
All that I need is Your love, my God
