By the hand of Your Spirit
Play the strings of my heart
And reveal all my hidden songs
By Your love let me hear it
When the song in my heart is not for You
Hold me in Your hands
Receive me as I am
And take
Take me away
I wanna be in the secret place
On the waves of Your mercy
I will sail on Your sea
I will give to You all of me
In the light of Your glory
I will lay on my face and worship You
With You is where I wanna be
Lord I worship You
Lord I love You
Lord I love You
Lord I need You
Lord I love You
Lord I need You
Lord I worship You
And I lift my heart and my hands to You
All my days
