The True Love of God | Eastern Lightning

I
I stand before my God again today.
My heart has much to say
when I see His lovely face.
I've left my wandering past
behind me.
His word fills me
with bliss and joy from His grace.
It's God's tender words that
water and nourish me to grow up.
It's His stern words that
encourage me to stand up again.
God, we sing to You today
cos of Your blessings.
We give praise to You today
because You've raised us.
Almighty true God who has loved us!
We love You! Oh God! We truly do!



II
I want to relish in Your word
for all my days.
I look to You, my God, for light
in each and every way.
You water and nourish
Your people in love.
You lead us away
from the devil's influence to stray.
It's God's tender words that
water and nourish me to grow up.
It's His stern words that
encourage me to stand up again.
God, we sing to You today
cos of Your blessings.
We give praise to You today
because You've raised us.
Almighty true God who has loved us!
We love You! Oh God! We truly do!
