[Verse 1]
Father I will not worry
About tomorrow or all of its questions
Father I will just trust You
And I will be waiting
For treasures in Heaven
[Chorus]
My heart is with You
For there my treasure lies
My eyes are on You
For You are my delight
[Verse 2]
Though I may not wear
The garments of princes
You are my portion
You are my portion
For You clothe me
In Your righteousness
And You are my portion
You are my portion
And my everything
For You feed me from
The abundance of Your hand
And You are my portion
You are my portion Lord
[Chorus]
Whether I’m awake or
Whether I’m asleep Lord
You are there
To make me be at peace
Lyrics by Darrell Evans
