My Please! Is Now Praise!
Because of your grace
You’ve given me reason to sing,
Because of your glory
The world is an old thing.
See, something new has arisen in me
And I want to tell the world,
I want to share your peace and love
With every man, woman, boy, and girl.
You’ve turned my mourning into dancing
My hurt into love,
Now instead of looking back
I only look above.
My heart now beats with joy
And I’m determined to follow your ways,
Because of you I am alive!
You have turned my “Please!” into “Praise!”
