How often I sing praises to Thy name
My heart swells whenever I sing about Him
He shows such compassion and love
That's when I know He is watching over me from above

There are times I stand in need of console
To lift up my heavy heart and soul
There are times I wish only to be wrapped in the warmth of His embrace
And feel His touch as He wipes away each tear that falls down my face

I know that He knows
His love for me overflows
He who is greatest of us all
Gladly paid the heaviest toll

How my heart implores
To drop anchor at those heavenly shores
My solemn prayer doth take wing
Towards my heavenly King

I recognize His face from afar
Perhaps He can rid me of this horrible scar
Someday soon, towards Him I'll race
To find comfort in His godly face
