Oh Lord, You're Beautiful
Oh, Lord You're beautiful. Your face is all I seek.
For when Your eyes are on this child, Your love abounds to me
Oh Lord my body's tired, but You keep reminding me
of many holy tireless men who spilt their blood for Thee.
I want to take Your word and shine it all around, but first help me just to live it Lord.
and if I'm doing well help me to never make a sound
except to give all the glory to You.
Oh Lord my faith is small and I need a touch from You
Your Book of books lies undisturbed, and the prayers from me too few.
Oh Lord please light the fire. That once burned bright and clear.
Replace the lamp of my first love that's fueled with holy fear.
I want to take Your word and shine it all around, but first help me just to live it Lord.
And if I'm doing good please help me to never make a sound except to give all the glory to You.
Oh Lord You're beautiful. Your face is all I seek. For when Your eyes are on this child
Your faith abounds to me. To me.
