You are my exceeding joy oh God
And I will praise Your name
With a song of thanksgiving
You are my exceeding joy oh God
And I will worship You
Send out Your light
Send out Your truth
And let them lead me Lord
Pour out Your love mercy and grace
Help me to seek You Lord
How I long to stand in Your presence
To be with You Lord is all I desire
You are all I desire
You are my exceeding joy oh God
You are my exceeding joy oh God
