Dear Lord, as I arise
And bend my knee to pray
I ask please place your guiding hand
Upon this busy day
And bend my knee to pray
I ask please place your guiding hand
Upon this busy day
All my yesterdays are said and done
Tomorrow may never be
But I give you full reign over this day
To make the best of me
Tomorrow may never be
But I give you full reign over this day
To make the best of me
May each little word I speak
Be filtered through your love
May all my thoughts be connected
To the heavenly courts above
Be filtered through your love
May all my thoughts be connected
To the heavenly courts above
And use my feet to take me
To where you want me to be
Guard my eyes that they would only
See what you want me to see
To where you want me to be
Guard my eyes that they would only
See what you want me to see
Give me a heart that longs to show
Others the way back home
And with these two hands help me
Fashion glory for your throne
Others the way back home
And with these two hands help me
Fashion glory for your throne
From the great expanse of eternity
One day is all I can borrow
So help me Lord to take care of today
And we’ll talk again tomorrow.
One day is all I can borrow
So help me Lord to take care of today
And we’ll talk again tomorrow.
