O Lord My God!

O Lord my God, my strength and consolation,
Inside my heart, thy tender voice resides,
When I am lost, Thy Holy Spirit guides me,
And leads me home, where love and faith abides.

When I rebel, I feel thy sweet forgiving,
Thou calleth me, to glorify thy ways,
Thy path is peace, thy Word is true salvation,
In all thy works, thy holiness displays.

If I remain, in humble adoration,
I know my heart, will fly on angel wings,
To hear Thy voice, and rise in exultation,
In tears of joy, and gratitude it brings.

Then sings my soul, with gratitude to Thee,
O Lord my God, O Lord my God,
Then sings my soul, a song of praise to Thee,
For Thou hast won, the victory!

In countless ways, His Holy Spirit prompts us,
To follow Him, and do what He would do,
At every turn, through tears of tribulation,
He lights the way, to guide and lead us through.

If we are true, our souls will rise to meet Him,
And oh what joy, will fill our hearts that day,
To feel His wounds, in resurrection's glory,
And know our sins, have all been washed away.

He calls on us, to join that sweet occasion,
The gathering, of those who sing His praise,
The humble few, who seek to know His wisdom,
And magnify, the glory of His ways.

Then sings my soul, with gratitude to Thee,
O Lord my God, O Lord my God,
Then sings my soul, a song of praise to Thee,
For Thou hast won, the victory!

When we are weak, and most in need of comfort,
And storms of life, obstruct us on our way,
He speaks to us, in loving words of kindness,
When we lose hope, and worry day-to-day.

He came to earth, to plead for our redemption,
And for the price, His righteous blood was shed,
When we believe, that Christ is our salvation,
Then we are free, as He Himself has said.

When He returns, in majesty and power,
The humble few, will rise to meet Him then,
To sing His praise, in joyful adoration,
And know the Lord, has come to earth again.

Then sings my soul, with gratitude to Thee,
O Lord my God, O Lord my God,
Then sings my soul, a song of praise to Thee,
For Thou hast won, the victory!
