In Awe I Stand of Him

In Awe I Stand Of Him


In awe I stand of Him.
Who encourages the weak
Who speaks to the hearts of those.
That Him do they seek.

In awe I stand of Him
The forgiver of our sins.
Who is there beside us.
Before our life begins.

In awe I stand of Him.
Who heals the brokenhearted.
And restores our souls.
When loved ones have departed

In awe I stand of Him.
Who helps the blind to see.
Who holds a place in heaven.
For all eternity.

In awe I stand of Him.
Who takes away my sorrows.
In awe I stand of Him.
Who holds all my tomorrows.

In awe I stand of Jesus.
Creator of all things.
In awe I stand of Jesus.
The king of all kings.
