"Words of a Song"
words of endless love~
With songs I sing spiritual psalms;
in my heart to give my deepest awe,
for who he is, for endless love.
My spirit reaches upwards still
day by day finding grace in his will,
While each song expresses who I am
to God above who is all in all.
Once found in sin, lost in life,
tears flowing, and being shed, searching
for God, his name, his total power;
to reach and save, and lift me out.
Before in abyss deep and darkness,
heart and soul were drifting.
Now Shiloh comes and rescues me,
my face to shine in full radiancy.
Each song marks a special place,
that had to come before victory;
as I lift my eyes to heavens throne.
There to see the one who cares for me,
and guides me on so hopefully;
so quietly, skillfully and so surely.
He spoke the words to me in song;
He lifted my heart in every melody.
They come from him, these songs,
the verses speak the words of life
eternal, true and heavenly,
what he wants, and his desire for me.
My prayers will carry me through,
as faithfully I sing and hold his hands.
All night and all the next day long,
Joy is there for me constantly, and only to be found
in refreshing words of each new song.
