A Song of Praise



The moon, the stars; blue tinted light
I'll sing Your praises in the night
Autumn leaves; crisp, rivers flow
Expressions of heaven's mere shadow

Your glory is bursting at the seams
Anxious for me to let it shine through

Though I'm weak and poor I'll give to You
From this broken shell, a heart that is true
If it be Your will I'll sing out loud
To bring to Your temple a joyous crowd

Where the veil is torn, You're at the door
Inviting Your people to come in

Found in Christ, I'm known to You
O Holy Spirit; guide me through
Creator of all things old and new
You are within me and I am in You

Your glory revealed, who answer your call
To love with the love that saved from the fall
