My eyes had never seen Your beauty, Lord
My ears had never heard Your voice before
But You showed Yourself to me
My heart had never comprehended
All the treasures of Your truth
And love, O Lord
But You showed Yourself to me
Who can know what You’ll reveal
To those who love You, Lord?
And my mind could not conceive
Of all that lies in store
You have become my very great reward
You’ve become the prize I am running for
You’ve given so much
Yet there is so much more
My Jesus, You are mine and I am Yours
And now I live to see Your beauty, Lord
And give my life to serve You more and more
For You’ve shown Yourself to me
There’s nothing else my heart would hunger for
You’ll be the One I worship and adore
For You’ve shown Yourself to me
