Let Me
(about 1998)
With every word let me praise
With every fall let me raise
With every sorrow let me learn
With every fire let me burn
With every rainbow
let me thank Thee I'm still here.
With every broken bread,
let me know I cannot fear.
With every raindrop let me cry
With every can't let me try
With every goodness let me feel
With every wound let me heal
With every mountain let me climb
With every church-bell let me chime
With every reason let me rhyme
With every moment give me time
With every gift let me give
With every Spring let me live
Each word of thine let me embrace
In every person let me see Thy face
With every light let me see
With every glory let me be
With every hope let me hold
With every clay let me mold
With every rock let me stand
With every challenge let me plan
With every plant, let me grow
With every knowledge let me know
With every sky let me fly
Each noble goal let me try
With every option give me one
All but Thee let me shun
With every song let me sing
Every melody to ring
Each chance to love
let me give myself completely
With every voice
let me hear Thy Spirit sweetly
With every eye let me see Thee only
With Thee alone, let me be lonely
With every sound let me hear
With every trumpet let me appear
With every doorway let me in
With every race let me win!
