My God listens to the words of a grateful heart. How wonderful you are, your tongue does not condemn or blame those who know your name. I called out to you and you welcomed me gladly, peace is at my door and my love rests on your on face. You lifted me from the pit and I began anew. You gave me your heart and I saw the face of love. I consume your will with a willing heart. You separated me from the past and reinstated my name.
How wonderful are your words, which carry your love to a dying heart. You spoke and lifted me up and sat me down; I am strengthened, I am encouraged and in you, I am one. Time cannot touch me. Evil flees because I come to your house and praise opens the door. You touched my heart with a new song, written by love and being sung by a perfect heart.
Father, I sing a song of praise as You stand in the beauty of holiness. You gave me a new heart, a new song and a new life. I bow before You with Your love in me. My song is new and my heart is pure. I have been purified by Your love. I stand in Your presence, witnessing Your indescribable beauty. Words cant express the love I see in Your eyes; You captured my heart and bondage is welcomed. You touched me with Your right finger and love spoke to me.
I heard the words of love coming from Your glory. You broke me and built me up; You made me laugh with tears; You humbled me through exaltation and You disciplined me with a strong hand and a gentle touch. How pure are Your eyes, which saw my perfection while imperfection abided in my house. You answer me before my questions are formed.
I bask in the brightness of Your presence and, being saturated by a pure love. All my fears departed as my heart rests in Your hands. You are my GOD my FATHER and only Your eyes can see me. You saw my love before its birth; You spoke and I am not ashamed and you gave me a heart out of Your perfection. Speak words of beauty so I might see Your glory and taste Your goodness and know the truth.
The beauty of Your glory surrounds me, causing my mind to see the truth. You spoke and I was transformed; You took my shattered dreams and gave me visions of hope. Tears of joy covers my face as You speak words of love that cover my heart.
