-hear This Song To You My Lord-

HEAR ME, HEAR ME, HEAR ME SING

   HEAR THESE WORDS, OH MY LORD

   HEAR THIS SONG, SUNG IN PRAISE OF YOU

   YOU, WHO I KNOW AM MY ALL

   MY ALL, MY ALL, I KNOW YOU ARE

   BECAUSE YOU GAVE ME YOUR WORD


   WHEREVER I WALK, BE IT IN DARKNESS OR LIGHT

   I KNOW YOU ARE WITH ME, DAY OR NIGHT

   AND WHEN I FROM YOUR PATH STRAY

   AND KNOW THAT I DID WRONG THAT DAY

   AND BOW DOWN MY HEAD AND TO YOU PRAY

   YOU WILL BE THERE AGAIN TO MAKE IT RIGHT


   FOR YOU KNOW, MY LORD I AM YOUR CHILD

   AND THAT YOU WILL NEVER LET ME GO

   YOU PROMISED TO BE MY FATHER THIS LIFE TIME

   AND FOREVER AND EVER FOR ALL ETERNITY TO BE

   THOUGH I HAVE FORGOTTEN SO MANY TIMES

   THOSE WORDS OF LOVE YOU HOLD FOR ME


   NOW I HUMBLY BESEECH YOU MY LORD

   TO HEAR THESE WORDS I SING TO YOU

   FOR I KNOW MY LORD, I KNOW

   YOU ARE WITH ME ALL THE TIME

   AND THEREFORE I FOREVER THANKFUL WILL BE

   AND SO GRATEFUL THAT YOU ARE MY FATHER IN LOVE.
