NOW I WILL GAZE INTO YOUR EYES and never turn away
This very day yes every moment I’ll look upon Your face
And here I’ll stay within Your mercy surrounded by Your grace
Christ be with me
Christ before me
Christ behind me
Christ be in me
Even as I look upon Your face Jesus
Even as I look upon Your face
And as I see the glory of Your perfect sacrifice
The deepest love my precious saviour I offer up my life
Renew my heart restore my spirit and purify my mind
Lord transform me by Your glory
Lord transform me by Your glory
