THROUGH EVERYTHING I DO
No matter where I may go
I want to be close to You
I want to be serving You
‘Cos it is my heart’s
And it is my soul’s
One desire to worship You
(Repeat)
Can I carry the fragrance of God
And people see
Through me Your love
That I could know
Your fullness God
Give everything back to You
