You will be praised

I will praise you in the morning
Before the storms come
I will look to you when I feel alone
And the when darkness comes
To you I will run
For you will be praised
you will be praised
Oh for all of my days
you will be praised
I will never run
There's nowhere to flee
Surround by glory
And perfect peace
All around me
I have no need
For you will be praised
You will be praised
Oh for all my days
You will be praised
In my quiet place I find rest
Knowing you're there for every test
I want nothing more than your best
In every trial
And in all the pain
I will see your face
For you will be praised
You will be praised
Oh for all my days
You will be praised
Nothing can take your love from me
Nothing can steal my peace
Because with you everything else will flee
All my worries and all my strife
Gone because of your light
For you will be praised
You will be praised
Oh for all my days
You will be praised

Presence

i hear the clock ticking
the darkness of night has fallen
though it may be dark outside  
your light still shines bright
i feel your presence 
i feel your warmth
so i ask you Lord tonight
be the light that lights up my life

Quiet night


Surrounded by quiet
hearing not a word
silence fills the room
waiting and listening to you
waiting for your voice
waiting for your warmth
listening for you to come speak to me
Holy Spirit come tonight
fill up my life
fill up my soul
Let me be a light to those untold
untold of your grace
untold of your love
let me lift up my heart to you tonight
so that with my entire life
i might be a light that shines so bright
