The Most

You became the fiery flame in my eyes The eternal gem of my wanting heart I was Lost and bewildered until I met You Finding each morning we are never apart For in You I found the greatest treasure An eternal love and the life it brings When people each day look upon me now They see Your Spirit shining from within You're the sweet pearl of heavens paradise And I will love You from this day forth Serving You for many endless times to come Only if your glorification is the end result Your name alone should be glorified daily Being lifted up above all created things Your love embraces every thought of mine While bringing my heart to happily sing For I need You like the rain which falls Nourishing life with the grace it brings And my heart will always be consistent In its daily downpour of love for thee You alone are the One true master jeweler Who holds His precious diamonds very close In my life, You are everything to me, Lord And that is why each day I love You the most.
